| contents | Topological Mass Generation and Duality Transformations in Diverse Dimensions Clovis Wotzasek Física, Astronomía y Matemáticas In this seminar we shall discuss the issue of duality transformation in the context of f topological mass generationin diverse dimensions. Particular emphasis will be given to the mass generation mechanism as the resultof interference between self and anti self-dual components, as disclosed by the soldering formalism. Since thisis a gauge embedding procedure derived from an old algorithm of second-class constraint conversion used bythe author to approach anomalous gauge theories, a quick review of the subject will be presented. The problemof classification of the electromagnetic duality groups that is closely related will also be briefly discussed.Particular emphasis will be given to a new approach to duality based on the soldering embedding to tackle toproblem of mass generation by topological mechanisms in D=3 and D=4 dimensions including the couplingsto dynamical matter and nonlinear cases. 2004 artículo científico 0103-9733 https://www.redalyc.org/articulo.oa?id=46400106 en http://www.redalyc.org/revista.oa?id=464 Brazilian Journal of Physics application/pdf Sociedade Brasileira de Física Brazilian Journal of Physics (Brasil) Num.1A Vol.34 |
