One loop anomalies and their dependence on antifields for general gauge theories are investigated within a Pauli-Villars regularization scheme. For on-shell theories {it i.e.}, with open algebras or on-shell reducible theories, the antifield dependence is cohomologically non trivial. The associated Wess-Zumino term depends also on antifields. In the classical basis the antifield independent part of the WZ term is expressed in terms of the anomaly and finite gauge transformations by introducing gauge degrees of freedom as the extra dynamical variables. The complete WZ term is reconstructed from the antifield independent part.

We revisit various topological issues concerning four-dimensional ungauged and gauged Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) terms for $SU$ and $SO$ quantum chromodynamics (QCD), from the modern bordism point of view. We explain, for example, why the definition of the $4d$ WZW terms requires the spin structure. We also discuss how the mixed anomaly involving the 1-form symmetry of $SO$ QCD is reproduced in the low-energy sigma model.
We use the coset construction of low-energy effective actions to systematically derive Wess-Zumino (WZ) terms for fluid and isotropic solid systems in two, three and four spacetime dimensions. We recover the known WZ term for fluids in two dimensions as well as the very recently found WZ term for fluids in three dimensions. We find two new WZ terms for supersolids that have not previously appeared in the literature. In addition, by relaxing certain assumptions about the symmetry group of fluids we find a number of new WZ terms for fluids with and without charge, in all dimensions. We find no WZ terms for solids and superfluids.
We renormalize the Wess-Zumino model at five loops in both the minimal subtraction (MSbar) and momentum subtraction (MOM) schemes. The calculation is carried out automatically using a routine that performs the D-algebra. Generalizations of the model to include $O(N)$ symmetry as well as the case with real and complex tensor couplings are also considered. We confirm that the emergent SU(3) symmetry of six dimensional O(N) phi^3 theory is also a property of the tensor O(N) model. With the new loop order precision we compute critical exponents in the epsilon expansion for several of these generalizations as well as the XYZ model in order to compare with conformal bootstrap estimates in three dimensions. For example at five loops our estimate for the correction to scaling exponent is in very good agreement for the Wess-Zumino model which equates to the emergent supersymmetric fixed point of the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa model. We also compute the rational number that is part of the six loop MSbar beta-function.
A systematic description of the Wess-Zumino-Witten model is presented. The symplectic method plays the major role in this paper and also gives the relationship between the WZW model and the Chern-Simons model. The quantum theory is obtained to give the projective representation of the Loop group. The Gauss constraints for the connection whose curvature is only focused on several fixed points are solved. The Kohno connection and the Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov equation are derived. The holonomy representation and $check R$-matrix representation of braid group are discussed.
We examine the equivalence between the Konishi anomaly equations and the matrix model loop equations in N=1* gauge theories, the mass deformation of N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills. We perform the superfunctional integral of two adjoint chiral superfields to obtain an effective N=1 theory of the third adjoint chiral superfield. By choosing an appropriate holomorphic variation, the Konishi anomaly equations correctly reproduce the loop equations in the corresponding three-matrix model. We write down the field theory loop equations explicitly by using a noncommutative product of resolvents peculiar to N=1* theories. The field theory resolvents are identified with those in the matrix model in the same manner as for the generic N=1 gauge theories. We cover all the classical gauge groups. In SO/Sp cases, both the one-loop holomorphic potential and the Konishi anomaly term involve twisting of index loops to change a one-loop oriented diagram to an unoriented diagram. The field theory loop equations for these cases show certain inhomogeneous terms suggesting the matrix model loop equations for the RP2 resolvent.
