The effect of different regulators in the non-local field-antifield quantization

Recently it was shown how to regularize the Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV) field-antifield formalism of quantization of gauge theories with the non-local regularization (NLR) method. The objective of this work is to make an analysis of the behaviour of this NLR formalism, connected to the BV framework, using two different regulators: a simple second order differential regulator and a Fujikawa-like regulator. This analysis has been made in the light of the well known fact that different regulators can generate different expressions for anomalies that are related by a local couterterm, or that are equivalent after a reparametrization. This has been done by computing precisely the anomaly of the chiral Schwinger model.Comment: 9 pages, Revtex. To appear in Int. J. Mod. Phys.

Obtaining non-Abelian field theories via Faddeev-Jackiw symplectic formalism

In this work we have shown that it is possible to construct non-Abelian field theories employing, in a systematic way, the Faddeev-Jackiw symplectic formalism. This approach follows two steps. In the first step, the original Abelian fields are modified in order to introduce the non-Abelian algebra. After that, the Faddeev-Jackiw method is implemented and the gauge symmetry relative to some non-Abelian symmetry group, is introduced through the zero-mode of the symplectic matrix. We construct the SU(2) and SU(2)xU(1) Yang-Mills theories having as starting point the U(1) Maxwell electromagnetic theory.Comment: 6 pages. Revtex 4.

Statistical transmutation of quantum bosonic strings coupled to general four-dimensional Chern-Simons theory

A bosonic string coupled to the generalized Chern-Simons theory in 3+1D acquires a magnetic field along itself, when it is closed, and a topological charge at its extremity, when it is open. We construct the creation operators for the full quantum field states associated to these strings and determine the dual algebra satisfied by them. We show that the creation operator fo the composite state of a quantum closed bosonic string, bearing a magnetic flux, and a topologically charged open bosonic string, possesses generalized statistics. The relation of our results with previous approaches to the problem is also established.Comment: 4 pages, Revtex

Hamiltonian symplectic embedding of the massive noncommutative U(1) Theory

We show that the massive noncommutative U(1) theory is embedded in a gauge theory using an alternative systematic way, which is based on the symplectic framework. The embedded Hamiltonian density is obtained after a finite number of steps in the iterative symplectic process, oppositely to the result proposed using the BFFT formalism. This alternative formalism of embedding shows how to get a set of dynamically equivalent embedded Hamiltonian densities.Comment: 16 pages, no figures, revtex4, corrected version, references additione

NUMERICAL SIMULATION OF AIRFOILS APPLIED TO UAVs

This essay aims the process optimization when referred to aeronautical projects. By using mesh generators softwares and simulations made in CFD, the article employs numerical techniques to simulate airfoils and shows that is possible to extract accurated and conservative outcomes when compared to wind tunnel results. The test cases studied were based on the Selig 1223 type of airfoil and developed into the ANSYS platform, whereas by using the ICEM mesh tool, structured meshs were generated and imported to the CFX enviroment, where they could be simulated and analyzed

Gauging the SU(2) Skyrme model

In this paper the SU(2) Skyrme model will be reformulated as a gauge theory and the hidden symmetry will be investigated and explored in the energy spectrum computation. To this end we purpose a new constraint conversion scheme, based on the symplectic framework with the introduction of Wess-Zumino (WZ) terms in an unambiguous way. It is a positive feature not present on the BFFT constraint conversion. The Dirac's procedure for the first-class constraints is employed to quantize this gauge invariant nonlinear system and the energy spectrum is computed. The finding out shows the power of the symplectic gauge-invariant formalism when compared with another constraint conversion procedures present on the literature.Comment: revised version, to appear in Phys.Rev.

Do Juiz de Paz uma análise da instituição no Estado do Espírito Santo sob a luz do acesso à justiça

Este trabalho procede à análise do processo de instituição do Juiz de Paz no Brasil a partir da Constituição Federal de 1988 intentando compreender, em última análise, os seus desdobramentos políticos, sociais e jurídicos, frente à tentativa de regulamentação da referida função no Estado do Espírito Santo. Para tanto, cumpriu-se Alcançar o entendimento democrático e as implicações ao sistema do judiciário no contexto recente do acesso à justiça. A análise da justiça de paz portuguesa, em que se buscou compreender a função do instituto em questão no ordenamento jurídico, reafirmou certos pressupostos intrínsecos à condição de desajuste que o Juiz de Paz engendra em sua relação com o magistrado e em sua atividade de implicações jurídicas distintas: celebrar casamentos e solucionar conflitos no âmbito dos métodos alternativos de resolução de conflitos. Decorre dessa relação as incongruências presentes na legislação que pretende instituí-lo nos Estados da Federação, particularmente para este trabalho, no Estado do Espírito Santo. Instrumentos jurídicos como o mandado de injunção e a construção de novos paradigmas para o ensino e a prática do Direito impõem-se, nesse contexto, como medidas capazes de trazer a efeito a desejada regulamentação para a função de Juiz de Paz no Brasil.

Symmetry transform in the Faddeev-Jackiw quantization of dual models

We study the presence of symmetry transformations in the Faddeev-Jackiw approach for constrained systems. Our analysis is based in the case of a particle submitted to a particular potential which depends on an arbitrary function. The method is implemented in a natural way and symmetry generators are identified. These symmetries permit us to obtain the absent elements of the sympletic matrix which complement the set of Dirac brackets of such a theory. The study developed here is applied in two different dual models. First, we discuss the case of a two-dimensional oscillator interacting with an electromagnetic potential described by a Chern-Simons term and second the Schwarz-Sen gauge theory, in order to obtain the complete set of non-null Dirac brackets and the correspondent Maxwell electromagnetic theory limit.Comment: 22 pages, RevTex file, no figur
