This paper discusses the formulation of the non-commutativ e Chern-Simons (CS) theory where the spatial slice, an infinite strip, is a manifold with boundaries. As standard ∗-products are not correct for suc h manifolds, the standard non-commutativ e CS theory is not also appropriate here. Instead w e formulate a new finite-dimensional matrix CS model as an approximation to the CS theory on the strip. A work whic h has points of contact with ours is due to Lizzi, Vitale and Zampini where the authors obtain a description for the fuzzy disc. The gauge fields in our approac h are operators supported on a subspace of finite dimension N + η of the Hilbert space of eigenstates of a simple harmonic oscillator with N , η ∈ Z + and N 6= 0. This oscillator is associated with the underlying Mo yal plane. The resultan t matrix CS model has a fuzzy edge. It becomes the required sharp edge when N and η → ∞ in a suitable sense. The non-commutativ e CS theory on the strip is defined b y this limiting procedure. After performing the canonical constrain t analysis of the matrix theory , w e find that there are edge observables in the theory generating a Lie algebra with properties similar to that of a non-abelian Kac-Mo ody algebra. Our study shows that there are ( η + 1) 2 abelian charges(observables) given b y the matrix elements ( Aˆ i ) N − 1 N − 1 and ( Aˆ i )nm (where n or m ≥ N ) of the gauge fields, that obey certain standard canonical commutation relations. In addition, the theory contains three unique non-abelian charges, localized near the Nth level. We observ e that all non-abelian edge observables except these three can b e constructed from the ( η +1) 2 abelian charges ab o ve. Using some of the results of this analysis w e discuss in detail the limit where this matrix model approximates the CS theory on the infinite strip.

This paper discusses the formulation of the non-commutative Chern-Simons (CS) theory where the spatial slice, an infinite strip, is a manifold with boundaries. As standard *-products are not correct for such manifolds, the standard non-commutative CS theory is not also appropriate here. Instead we formulate a new finite-dimensional matrix CS model as an approximation to the CS theory on the strip.

Quantum aspects of the noncommutative Sine-Gordon model
Kürkcüoğlu, Seçkin (Springer Science and Business Media LLC, 2007-09-01)
In this paper, we first use semi-classical methods to study quantum field theoretical aspects of the integrable noncommutative sine-Gordon model proposed in [hep-th/0406065]. In particular, we examine the fluctuations at quadratic order around the static kink solution using the background field method. We derive equations of motion for the fluctuations and argue that at O(θ2) the spectrum of fluctuations remains essentially the same as that of the corresponding commutative theory. We compute the one-loop tw...
Hilbert functions of gorenstein monomial curves
Topaloğlu Mete, Pınar; Arslan, Sefa Feza; Department of Mathematics (2005)
The aim of this thesis is to study the Hilbert function of a one-dimensional Gorenstein local ring of embedding dimension four in the case of monomial curves. We show that the Hilbert function is non-decreasing for some families of Gorenstein monomial curves in affine 4-space. In order to prove this result, under some arithmetic assumptions on generators of the defining ideal, we determine the minimal generators of their tangent cones by using the standard basis and check the Cohen-Macaulayness of them. Lat...
Non-Abelian gauge theories of the Yang-Mills type
Abuhatab, Ahmed; Başkal, Sibel; Department of Physics (2003)
In this thesis, starting from the effective Lagrangians of the standard Yang-Mills, higher derivative Yang-Mills and the Chern-Simons- Yang-Mills theories, we have given the corresponding field equations and the symmetric gauge invariant energy- momentum tensors. Lagrangians containing higher derivative terms have been found useful for discussing the long lange effects of the gluon fields. A numeri cal solution is found for a spherically symmetric static gauge potential. On the other hand, Chern-Simons- Yan...
ON GENERALIZED LOCAL SYMMETRIES OF THE SO(2,1) INVARIANT NONLINEAR SIGMA-MODEL
BASKAL, S; ERIS, A; SATIR, A (1994-12-19)
The symmetries and associated conservation laws of the SO(2,1) invariant non-linear sigma model equations in 1+1 dimensions are investigated. An infinite family of generalized local symmetries is presented and the uniqueness of these solutions is discussed.
