Improving on an earlier proposal, we construct the gauge theories of the quantum groups U q(N). We find that these theories are also consistent with an ordinary (commuting) space-time. The bicovariance conditions of the quantum differential calculus are essential in our construction. The gauge potentials and the field strengths are q-commuting "fields," and satisfy q-commutation relations with the gauge parameters. The transformation rules of the potentials generalize the ordinary infinitesimal gauge variations. For particular deformations of U (N) ("minimal deformations"), the algebra of quantum gauge variations is shown to close, provided the gauge parameters satisfy appropriate q-commutations. The q-Lagrangian invariant under the U q(N) variations has the Yang–Mills form [Formula: see text], the "quantum metric" gij being a generalization of the Killing metric.

Ultraviolet divergencies in gauge theories including those with higher powers of covariant derivatives are discussed in a space-time of an arbitrary dimension. In particular, it is noted that in the case d=5 all the one-loop graphs are finite, and theories with sufficiently high power of derivatives are finite in all orders.

We discuss tachyon-free examples of (Type IIB on) noncompact nonsupersymmetric orbifolds. Tachyons are projected out by discrete torsion between orbifold twists, while supersymmetry is broken by a Scherk–Schwarz phase (+1/-1 when acting on space–time bosons/fermions) accompanying some even order twists. The absence of tachyons is encouraging for constructing nonsupersymmetric D3-brane gauge theories with stable infrared fixed points. The D3-brane gauge theories in our orbifold backgrounds have chiral [Formula: see text] supersymmetric spectra, but nonsupersymmetric interactions.

We give a BJL-type prescription for calculating a double commutator which manifestly respects the Jacobi identity. This prescription is used to calculate the double commutators of currents and electric fields in chiral gauge theories, where they are known to violate the Jacobi identity in an iterative computation. We then derive a consistency equation relating the Schwinger terms of the double commutators of currents and the divergence anomaly. While this consistency equation is violated by the iterative scheme in four space-time dimensions, it is found to be satisfied using our prescription.
