Geometrical Aspects Of BRST Cohomology In Augmented Superfield Formalism
In the framework of augmented superfield approach, we provide the geometrical
origin and interpretation for the nilpotent (anti-)BRST charges, (anti-)co-BRST
charges and a non-nilpotent bosonic charge. Together, these local and conserved
charges turn out to be responsible for a clear and cogent definition of the
Hodge decomposition theorem in the quantum Hilbert space of states. The above
charges owe their origin to the de Rham cohomological operators of differential
geometry which are found to be at the heart of some of the key concepts
associated with the interacting gauge theories. For our present review, we
choose the two -dimensional (2D) quantum electrodynamics (QED) as a
prototype field theoretical model to derive all the nilpotent symmetries for
all the fields present in this interacting gauge theory in the framework of
augmented superfield formulation and show that this theory is a {\it unique}
example of an interacting gauge theory which provides a tractable field
theoretical model for the Hodge theory.Comment: LaTeX file, 25 pages, Ref. [49] updated, correct page numbers of the

Gauge Transformations, BRST Cohomology and Wigner's Little Group
We discuss the (dual-)gauge transformations and BRST cohomology for the two
(1 + 1)-dimensional (2D) free Abelian one-form and four (3 + 1)-dimensional
(4D) free Abelian 2-form gauge theories by exploiting the (co-)BRST symmetries
(and their corresponding generators) for the Lagrangian densities of these
theories. For the 4D free 2-form gauge theory, we show that the changes on the
antisymmetric polarization tensor e^{\mu\nu} (k) due to (i) the (dual-)gauge
transformations corresponding to the internal symmetry group, and (ii) the
translation subgroup T(2) of the Wigner's little group, are connected with
each-other for the specific relationships among the parameters of these
transformation groups. In the language of BRST cohomology defined w.r.t. the
conserved and nilpotent (co-)BRST charges, the (dual-)gauge transformed states
turn out to be the sum of the original state and the (co-)BRST exact states. We
comment on (i) the quasi-topological nature of the 4D free 2-form gauge theory
from the degrees of freedom count on e^{\mu\nu} (k), and (ii) the Wigner's
little group and the BRST cohomology for the 2D one-form gauge theory {\it
vis-{\`a}-vis} our analysis for the 4D 2-form gauge theory.Comment: LaTeX file, 29 pages, misprints in (3.7), (3.8), (3.9), (3.13) and

Nilpotent Symmetries For Matter Fields In Non-Abelian Gauge Theory: Augmented Superfield Formalism
In the framework of superfield approach to Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST)
formalism, the derivation of the (anti-)BRST nilpotent symmetries for the
matter fields, present in any arbitrary interacting gauge theory, has been a
long-standing problem. In our present investigation, the local, covariant,
continuous and off-shell nilpotent (anti-)BRST symmetry transformations for the
Dirac fields are derived in the framework of the augmented
superfield formulation where the four -dimensional (4D) interacting
non-Abelian gauge theory is considered on the six -dimensional
supermanifold parametrized by the four even spacetime coordinates and a
couple of odd elements ( and ) of the Grassmann algebra.
The requirement of the invariance of the matter (super)currents and the
horizontality condition on the (super)manifolds leads to the derivation of the
nilpotent symmetries for the matter fields as well as the gauge- and the
(anti-)ghost fields of the theory in the general scheme of the augmented
superfield formalism.Comment: LaTeX file, 16 pages, printing mistakes in the second paragraph of

Wigner's little group and BRST cohomology for one-form Abelian gauge theory
We discuss the (dual-)gauge transformations for the gauge-fixed Lagrangian
density and establish their intimate connection with the translation subgroup
T(2) of the Wigner's little group for the free one-form Abelian gauge theory in
four -dimensions (4D) of spacetime. Though the relationship between
the usual gauge transformation for the Abelian massless gauge field and T(2)
subgroup of the little group is quite well-known, such a connection between the
dual-gauge transformation and the little group is a new observation. The above
connections are further elaborated and demonstrated in the framework of
Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST) cohomology defined in the quantum Hilbert
space of states where the Hodge decomposition theorem (HDT) plays a very
decisive role.Comment: LaTeX file, 17 pages, Journal-ref. give

Pembenahan Transportasi Kota Bandar Lampung Melalui Pengendalian Volume Lalulintas Dan Kapasitas Jalan
Membenahi transportasi kota harus dilakukan dengan mengendalikan volume kendaraan pribadi dan membangun sistem angkutan umum. Biaya pengendalian volume lalulintas akan jauh lebih murah dan bersifat solutif jika dibandingkan dengan menambah kapasitas jalan. Anggaran pemerintah yang terbatas menjadi alasan penambahan kapasitas tidak realistis untuk dilakukan, selain tidak menyelesaikan masalah transportasi perkotaan. Dibutuhkan komitmen yang kuat untuk mewujudkan angkutan umum yang handal, dan hal ini sudah menjadi perintah UU No 22 Tahun 2009 tentang Lalulintas dan Angkutan Jalan yang harus dijalankan oleh seluruh pemerintahan
Cohomological aspects of Abelian gauge theory
We discuss some aspects of cohomological properties of a two-dimensional free
Abelian gauge theory in the framework of BRST formalism. We derive the
conserved and nilpotent BRST- and co-BRST charges and express the Hodge
decomposition theorem in terms of these charges and a conserved bosonic charge
corresponding to the Laplacian operator. It is because of the topological
nature of free U(1) gauge theory that the Laplacian operator goes to zero when
equations of motion are exploited. We derive two sets of topological invariants
which are related to each-other by a certain kind of duality transformation and
express the Lagrangian density of this theory as the sum of terms that are
BRST- and co-BRST invariants. Mathematically, this theory captures together
some of the key features of Witten- and Schwarz type of topological field
theories.Comment: 12 pages, LaTeX, no figures, Title and text have been slightly

Analisis Fatik Berbantuan Komputer
This paper discusses fatigue analysis procedures using computer aided software to calculate fatigue life that produces an accurate and detailed simulations as compared to conventional means such as Fatigue Wizard Algor, Ansys Workbench and SolidWorks Simulation. Fatigue analysis using the results of static studies of stress or strain magnitude as input to calculate the fatigue life is largely made up of three main steps of determining the material, conduct analysis and evaluate the results. Paper also shows complete procedure to select and arrange images and material selection based on S-N curve, plots present the results of fatigue analysis in the form of percentage of damage and cycle life of failure pictures, and 2D and 3D curves from rainflow damage percentage and number of failure cycles on a model
Superfield approach to symmetry invariance in QED with complex scalar fields
We show that the Grassmannian independence of the super Lagrangian density,
expressed in terms of the superfields defined on a (4, 2)-dimensional
supermanifold, is a clear-cut proof for the Becchi-Rouet-Stora-Tyutin (BRST)
and anti-BRST invariance of the corresoponding four (3 + 1)-dimensional (4D)
Lagrangian density that describes the interaction between the U(1) gauge field
and the charged complex scalar fields. The above 4D field theoretical model is
considered on a (4, 2)-dimensional supermanifold parametrized by the ordinary
four spacetime variables x^\mu (with \mu = 0, 1, 2, 3) and a pair of
Grassmannian variables \theta and \bar\theta (with \theta^2 = \bar\theta^2 = 0,
\theta \bar\theta + \bar\theta \theta = 0). Geometrically, the (anti-)BRST
invariance is encoded in the translation of the super Lagrangian density along
the Grassmannian directions of the above supermanifold such that the outcome of
this shift operation is zero.Comment: LaTeX file, 14 pages, minor changes in the title and text, version to
