Formalism of extended Lagrangian represent a systematic procedure to look for the local symmetries of a given Lagrangian action. In this work, the formalism is discussed and applied to a field theory. We describe it in detail for a field theory with first-class constraints present in the Hamiltonian formulation. The method is illustrated on examples of electrodynamics, Yang-Mills field and non-linear sigma model.

After a brief introduction to Heun type functions we note that the actual solutions of the eigenvalue equation emerging in the calculation of the one loop contribution to QCD from the Belavin-Polyakov-Schwarz-Tyupkin instanton and the similar calcula tion for a Dirac particle coupled to a scalar $CP^1$ model in two dimensions can be given in terms of confluent Heun equation in their original forms. These equations were previously modified to be solved by more elementary functions. We also show that polynomial solutions with discrete eigenvalues are impossible to find in the unmodified equations.

A general approach is presented to describing nonlinear classical Maxwell electrodynamics with conformal symmetry. We introduce generalized nonlinear constitutive equations, expressed in terms of constitutive tensors dependent on conformal-invariant functionals of the field strengths. This allows a characterization of Lagrangian and non-Lagrangian theories. We obtain a general formula for possible Lagrangian densities in nonlinear conformal-invariant electrodynamics. This generalizes the standard Lagrangian of classical linear electrodynamics so as to preserve the conformal symmetry.
This review represents a detailed and comprehensive discussion of the Thermal Field Theory (TFT) concepts and key results in Yukawa-type theories. We start with a general pedagogical introduction into the TFT in the imaginary- and real-time formulati on. As phenomenologically relevant implications, we present a compendium of thermal decay rates for several typical reactions calculated within the framework of the real-time formalism and compared to the imaginary-time results found in the literature. Processes considered here are those of a neutral (pseudo)scalar decaying into two distinct (pseudo)scalars or into a fermion-antifermion pair. These processes are extended from earlier works to include chemical potentials and distinct species in the final state. In addition, a (pseudo)scalar emission off a fermion line is also discussed. These results demonstrate the importance of thermal effects in particle decay observables relevant in many phenomenological applications in systems at high temperatures and densities.

We study the behavior of Donaldsons invariants of 4-manifolds based on the moduli space of anti self-dual connections (instantons) in the perturbative field theory setting where the underlying source manifold has boundary. It is well-known that these invariants take values in the instanton Floer homology groups of the boundary 3-manifold. Gluing formulae for these constructions lead to a functorial topological field theory description according to a system of axioms developed by Atiyah, which can be also regarded in the setting of perturbative quantum field theory, as it was shown by Witten, using a version of supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, known today as Donaldson-Witten theory. One can actually formulate an AKSZ model which recovers this theory for a certain gauge-fixing. We consider these constructions in a perturbative quantum gauge formalism for manifolds with boundary that is compatible with cutting and gluing, called the BV-BFV formalism, which was recently developed by Cattaneo, Mnev and Reshetikhin. We prove that this theory satisfies a modified Quantum Master Equation and extend the result to a global picture when perturbing around constant background fields. Additionally, we relate these constructions to Nekrasovs partition function by treating an equivariant version of Donaldson-Witten theory in the BV formalism. Moreover, we discuss the extension, as well as the relation, to higher gauge theory and enumerative geometry methods, such as Gromov-Witten and Donaldson-Thomas theory and recall their correspondence conjecture for general Calabi-Yau 3-folds. In particular, we discuss the corresponding (relative) partition functions, defined as the generating function for the given invariants, and gluing phenomena.
We continue our study of effective field theory via homotopy transfer of $L_infty$-algebras, and apply it to tree-level non-Wilsonian effective actions of the kind discussed by Sen in which the modes integrated out are comparable in mass to the modes that are kept. We focus on the construction of effective actions for string states at fixed levels and in particular on the construction of weakly constrained double field theory. With these examples in mind, we discuss closed string theory on toroidal backgrounds and resolve some subtle issues involving vertex operators, including the proper form of cocycle factors and of the reflector state. This resolves outstanding issues concerning the construction of covariant closed string field theory on toroidal backgrounds. The weakly constrained double field theory is formally obtained from closed string field theory on a toroidal background by integrating out all but the doubly massless states and homotopy transfer then gives a prescription for determining the theorys vertices and symmetries. We also discuss consistent truncation in the context of homotopy transfer.
