Quantization of U_q[so(2n+1)] with deformed para-Fermi operators
The observation that n pairs of para-Fermi (pF) operators generate the
universal enveloping algebra of the orthogonal Lie algebra so(2n+1) is used in
order to define deformed pF operators. It is shown that these operators are an
alternative to the Chevalley generators. On this background Uq[so(2n+1)] and
its "Cartan-Weyl" generators are written down entirely in terms of deformed pB
operators.Comment: plain TeX, Preprint INRNE-TH-93/7, 6
DeWitt-Virasoro construction
We study a particular approach for analyzing worldsheet conformal invariance
for bosonic string propagating in a curved background using hamiltonian
formalism. We work in the Schrodinger picture of a single particle description
of the problem where the particle moves in an infinite-dimensional space.
Background independence is maintained in this approach by adopting DeWitt's
(Phys.Rev.85:653-661,1952) coordinate independent formulation of quantum
mechanics. This enables us to construct certain background independent notion
of Virasoro generators, called DeWitt-Virasoro (DWV) generators, and invariant
matrix elements of an arbitrary operator constructed out of them in spin-zero
representation. We show that the DWV algebra is given by the Witt algebra with
additional anomalous terms that vanish for Ricci-flat backgrounds. The actual
quantum Virasoro generators should be obtained by first introducing the vacuum
state and then normal ordering the DWV generators with respect to that. We
demonstrate the procedure in the simple cases of flat and pp-wave backgrounds.

On a coordinate independent description of string worldsheet theory
We study worldsheet conformal invariance for bosonic string propagating in a
curved background using the hamiltonian formalism. In order to formulate the
problem in a background independent manner we first rewrite the worldsheet
theory in a language where it describes a single particle moving in an
infinite-dimensional curved spacetime. This language is developed at a formal
level without regularizing the infinite-dimensional traces. Then we adopt
DeWitt's (Phys.Rev.85:653-661,1952) coordinate independent formulation of
quantum mechanics in the present context. Given the expressions for the
classical Virasoro generators, this procedure enables us to define the
coordinate invariant quantum analogues which we call DeWitt-Virasoro
generators. This framework also enables us to calculate the invariant matrix
elements of an arbitrary operator constructed out of the DeWitt-Virasoro
generators between two arbitrary scalar states. Using these tools we further
calculate the DeWitt-Virasoro algebra in spin-zero representation. The result
is given by the Witt algebra with additional anomalous terms that vanish for
Ricci-flat backgrounds. Further analysis need to be performed in order to
precisely relate this with the beta function computation of Friedan and others.
Finally, we explain how this analysis improves the understanding of showing
conformal invariance for certain pp-wave that has been recently discussed using
hamiltonian framework.Comment: 32 pages, some reorganization for more elaborate explanation, no

Invariant solutions of the supersymmetric sine-Gordon equation
A comprehensive symmetry analysis of the N=1 supersymmetric sine-Gordon
equation is performed. Two different forms of the supersymmetric system are
considered. We begin by studying a system of partial differential equations
corresponding to the coefficients of the various powers of the anticommuting
independent variables. Next, we consider the super-sine-Gordon equation
expressed in terms of a bosonic superfield involving anticommuting independent
variables.
In each case, a Lie (super)algebra of symmetries is determined and a
classification of all subgroups having generic orbits of codimension 1 in the
space of independent variables is performed. The method of symmetry reduction
is systematically applied in order to derive invariant solutions of the
supersymmetric model. Several types of algebraic, hyperbolic and doubly
periodic solutions are obtained in explicit form.Comment: 27 pages, major revision, the published versio
Algebraic structure of the Green's ansatz and its q-deformed analogue
The algebraic structure of the Green's ansatz is analyzed in such a way that
its generalization to the case of q-deformed para-Bose and para-Fermi operators
is becoming evident. To this end the underlying Lie (super)algebraic properties
of the parastatistics are essentially used.Comment: plain TeX, Preprint INRNE-TH-94/4, 13
