Poisson structures appear in a large variety of contexts, ranging from string theory,
classical/quantum mechanics and differential geometry to abstract algebra, algebraic …

In this paper we propose ten‐dimensional realizations of the non‐geometric fluxes Q and R.
In particular, they appear in the NSNS Lagrangian after performing a field redefinition that …

The curved beta-gamma system is the chiral sector of a certain infinite radius limit of the non-
linear sigma model with complex target space. Naively it only depends on the complex …

Using the non-minimal version of the pure spinor formalism, manifestly super-Poincaré
covariant superstring scattering amplitudes can be computed as in topological string theory …

Starting with minimal requirements from the physical experience with higher gauge theories,
ie gauge theories for a tower of differential forms of different form degrees, we discover that …

This is an introductory review of topological field theories (TFTs) called AKSZ sigma models.
The AKSZ construction is a mathematical formulation for the construction and analysis of a …

A bstract We determine the solution to the classical master equation for a 3D topological
field theory with Wess-Zumino term and an underlying geometrical structure of a twisted R …

We present the BFV and the BV extension of the Poisson sigma model (PSM) twisted by a
closed 3-form H. There exist superfield versions of these functionals such as for the PSM …

A bstract We extend the notion of Lie bialgebroids for more general bracket structures used
in string and M theories. We formalize the notions of calculus and dual calculi on algebroids …

For any manifold M, the direct sum TM\oplus T* M carries a natural inner product given by
the pairing of vectors and covectors. Differential forms on M may be viewed as spinors for …
