Coprolites of Deinosuchus and other crocodylians from the Upper Cretaceous of western Georgia, USA
Associated with abundant bones, teeth and osteoderms of the giant eusuchian Deinosuchus rugosus are larger concretionary masses of consistent form and composition. It is proposed that these are crocodylian coprolites, and further, based on their size and abundance, that these are coprolites of Deinosuchus. The associated coprolite assemblage also contains additional types that may come from smaller crocodylians, most likely species of the riverine/estuarine genus Borealosuchus, which is represented by bones, osteoderms and teeth in fossil collections from the same site
Free-field Representations and Geometry of some Gepner models
The geometry of Gepner model, where is investigated by
free-field representation known as "bc\bet\gm"-system. Using this
representation it is shown directly that internal sector of the model is given
by Landau-Ginzburg -orbifold. Then we consider
the deformation of the orbifold by marginal anti-chiral-chiral operator.
Analyzing the holomorphic sector of the deformed space of states we show that
it has chiral de Rham complex structure of some toric manifold, where toric
dates are given by certain fermionic screening currents. It allows to relate
the Gepner model deformed by the marginal operator to the -model on CY
manifold realized as double cover of with ramification along
certain submanifold.Comment: LaTex, 14 pages, some acknowledgments adde
On Duality in Supersymmetric Yang-Mills Theory
We discuss non-abelian gauge theory coupled to an adjoint chiral
superfield , and a number of fundamental chiral superfields . Using
duality, we show that turning on a superpotential W(X)=\Tr\sum_{l=1}^k g_l
X^{l+1} leads to non-trivial long distance dynamics, a large number of
multicritical IR fixed points and vacua, connected to each other by varying the
coefficients .Comment: 11 pages, harvma
Universality in Two Dimensional Gauge Theory.
We discuss two dimensional Yang -- Mills theories with massless fermions in
arbitrary representations of a gauge group . It is shown that the physics
(spectrum and interactions) of the massive states in such models is independent
of the detailed structure of the model, and only depends on the gauge group
and an integer measuring the total anomaly. The massless physics, which
does depend on the details of the model, decouples (almost) completely from
that of the massive one. As an example, we discuss the equivalence of QCD
coupled to fermions in the adjoint, and fundamental representations.Comment: 16 pages, harvma
N-String Vertices in String Field Theory
We give the general form of the vertex corresponding to the interaction of an
arbitrary number of strings. The technique employed relies on the ``comma"
representation of String Field Theory where string fields and interactions are
represented as matrices and operations between them such as multiplication and
trace. The general formulation presented here shows that the interaction vertex
of N strings, for any arbitrary N, is given as a function of particular
combinations of matrices corresponding to the change of representation between
the full string and the half string degrees of freedom.Comment: 22 pages, A4-Latex (latex twice), FTUV IFI
A classification of local Weyl invariants in D=8
