KRICHEVER — NOVIKOV BASES FOR THE BOSONIC STRING
The global operator formalism proposed recently by Krichever and Novikov using meromorphic tensor fields on general Riemann surfaces of arbitrary genus is applied to the bosonic string. The well-known Green's function of the scalar boson fields is obtained in a simple manner from the spectral representation. Proof of Wick's theorem is also given.

Quantum Brownian Motion on a Triangular Lattice and Fermi-Bose Equivalence: An Application of Boundary State Formulation
We discuss the Bose-Fermi equivalence in the quantum Brownian motion (QBM) on a triangular lattice, mapping the action for the QBM into a string theory action with a periodic boundary tachyon potential. We construct new Klein factors which are more appropriate than the conventional ones to deal with the quantum field theories defined on a two dimensioanl space-time with boundaries. Using the Fermi-Bose equivalence with the new Klein factors, we show that the model for the quantum Bownian motion on a triangular lattice is equivalent to the Thirring model with boundary terms, which are quadratic in fermion field operators, in the off-critical regions and to a SU(3) × SU(3) free fermion theory with quadratic boundary terms at the critical point.

Topological Ward identity and anti-de Sitter space / CFT correspondence
Abstract The dual relationship between the supergravity in the anti-de Sitter (AdS) space and the superconformal field theory is discussed in the simplest form. We show that a topological Ward identity holds in the three dimensional Chern–Simons gravity. In this simple case the proposed dual relationship can be understood as the topological Ward identity. Extensions to the supersymmetric theories and higher dimensional ones are also briefly discussed.

Tachyon condensation, boundary state, and noncommutative solitons
We discuss tachyon condensation in a single unstable D-brane in the framework of the boundary state formulation. The boundary state in the background of tachyon condensation and the Neveu-Schwarz B-field is explicitly constructed. We show in both commutative theory and noncommutative theory that the unstable D-branes behave like an extended object and eventually reduce to lower dimensional D-branes as the system approaches the infrared fixed point. We clarify the relationship between the commutative field theoretical description of tachyon condensation and the noncommutative one.

Estimating higher order perturbative coefficients using Borel transform
A new method of estimating higher order perturbative coefficients is discussed. It exploits the rapid, asymptotic growth of perturbative coefficients and the information on the singularities in the complex Borel plane. A comparison with other methods is made in several Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) expansions.

Baryon number violation in dense matter. On the relation with anomalous high energy scattering
Abstract The recent claim of the equivalence of baryon number violation in dense matter and that of high energy scattering is examined. We present a plausible argument against the claim. We also calculate the anomalous decay rate of dense matter to (μ/E 0 ) 8 3 In (μ/E 0 ) order. To this order, we find the anomalous decay rate is completely equivalent to the anomalous cross section of the high energy scattering calculated by the valley method.

MODIFICATIONS OF THE HUBBLE LAW IN SCALE-DEPENDENT COSMOLOGY
We study some observational consequences of a recently proposed scale-dependent cosmological model for an inhomogeneous universe. In this model the universe is pictured as being inside a highly dense and rapidly expanding shell with the underdense center. For nearby objects (z≪1), the linear Hubble diagram is shown to remain valid even in this model, which has been demonstrated both analytically and numerically. For large z, we present some numerical results of the redshift luminosity distance relation and the behavior of the mass density as a function of the redshift. It is shown that the Hubble diagram in this model for a locally open universe (Ω(t0, r~0)=0.1) resembles that of the flat Friedmann cosmology. This implies that the study of the Hubble diagram cannot uniquely determine the value of q0 or Ω0. The model also accounts for the fact that Ω0 is an increasing function of the redshift.

Gauge symmetry enhancement in the Hamiltonian formalism
We study the Hamiltonian structure of the gauge symmetry enhancement in the enlarged CP(N) model coupled with U(2) Chern-Simons term, which contains a free parameter governing explicit symmetry breaking and symmetry enhancement. After giving a general discussion of the geometry of constrained phase space suitable for the symmetry enhancement, we explicitly perform the Dirac analysis of our model and compute the Dirac brackets for the symmetry enhanced and broken cases. We also discuss some related issues.
