On the “current” algebra of the KdV equation
Abstract We study the algebra of the conserved densities of the KdV equation. We obtain general conditions which show that the algebra does not close in general. A nontrivial example where the algebra closes is presented.

Thermal Operator and Cutting Rules at Finite Temperature and Chemical Potential
In the context of scalar field theories, both real and complex, we derive the cutting description at finite temperature (with zero/finite chemical potential) from the cutting rules at zero temperature through the action of a simple thermal operator. We give an alternative algebraic proof of the largest time equation which brings out the underlying physics of such a relation. As an application of the cutting description, we calculate the imaginary part of the one-loop retarded self-energy at zero/finite temperature and finite chemical potential and show how this description can be used to calculate the dispersion relation as well as the full physical self-energy of thermal particles.

The hamiltonian structures of the KP hierarchy
Abstract We obtain the two hamiltonian structures of the KP hierarchy following the method of Drinfeld and Sokolov. We point out how the second structure of Drinfeld and Sokolov needs to be modified in the present case. We briefly comment on the connection between these structures and the W 1+∞ algebra.

The sTB-B hierarchy
Abstract We construct a new supersymmetric two boson (sTB-B) hierarchy and study its properties. We derive the conserved quantities and the Hamiltonian structures (proving the Jacobi identity) for the system. We show how this system gives the sKdV-B equation and its Hamiltonian structures upon appropriate reduction. We also describe the zero curvature formulation of this hierarchy both in the superspace as well as in components.

DYNAMICAL SUPERSYMMETRY
We show, in a simple quantum mechanical model, how a theory can become supersymmetric in the presence of interactions even when the free theory is not. This dynamical generation of supersymmetry relaxes the condition on the equality of masses of the superpartners which would be of phenomenological interest.

Supersymmetric and Deformed Harry Dym hierarchies
In this talk, we describe our recent results on the supersymmetrization of the Harry Dym hierarchy as well as a newly constructed deformed Harry Dym hierarchy which is integrable with two arbitrary parameters. In various limits of these parameters, the deformed hierarchy reduces to various known integrable systems.

Dispersionless fermionic KdV
Abstract We analyze the dispersionless limits of the Kupershmidt equation, the SUSY KdV-B equation and the SUSY KdV equation. We present the Lax description for each of these models and bring out various properties associated with them as well as discuss open questions that need to be addressed in connection with these models.

New nonlocal charges in SUSY-B integrable models
Abstract In this Letter, we study systematically the general properties of the B -extension of any integrable model. In addition to discussing the general properties of Hamiltonians, Hamiltonian structures etc, we also clarify the origin of “exotic” charges in such models. We show that, in such models, there exist at least two sets of non-local conserved charges (and more if N >1 supersymmetry is present) and that the “exotic” charges are part of this non-local charge hierarchy. The construction of these non-local charges from the Lax operator is explained.

Anomalous magnetic moment of electron in Chern–Simons QED
Abstract We calculate the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron in the Chern–Simons theory in 2+1 dimensions with and without a Maxwell term, both at zero temperature as well as at finite temperature. In the case of the Maxwell–Chern–Simons (MCS) theory, we find that there is an infrared divergence, both at zero as well as at finite temperature, when the tree level Chern–Simons term vanishes, which suggests that a Chern–Simons term is essential in such theories. At high temperature, the thermal correction in the MCS theory behaves as 1 β ln βM , where β denotes the inverse temperature and M , the Chern–Simons coefficient. On the other hand, we find no thermal correction to the anomalous magnetic moment in the pure Chern–Simons (CS) theory.
