Quantization on a surface orthogonal to a fixed lightlike vector leads to a set of second-class constraints in addition to the usual first-class constraints encountered in the conventional quantization procedure. This leads to an additional ghost field in the effective Lagrangian, but it is argued that this ghost field decouples in any computation of radiative corrections and does not enter the Becchi–Rouet–Stora identities.

By using the Hubbard [Formula: see text]-operators as field variables along with the supersymmetric version of the Faddeev–Jackiw symplectic formalism, a family of first-order constrained Lagrangians for the t-J model is found. In order to satisfy the Hubbard [Formula: see text]-operator commutation rules satisfying the graded algebra spl(2,1), the number and kind of constraints that must be included in a classical first-order Lagrangian formalism for this model are presented. The model is also analyzed via path-integral formalism, where the correlation-generating functional and the effective Lagrangian are constructed. In this context, the introduction of a proper ghost field is needed to render the model renormalizable. The perturbative Lagrangian formalism is developed and it is shown how propagators and vertices can be renormalized to each order. In particular, the renormalized ferromagnetic magnon propagator arising in the present formalism is discussed. As an example, the thermal softening of the magnon frequency is computed.

The radiative corrections of second and third order for the process of photoproduction of gravitons in Coulomb and magnetic dipole fields have been calculated.All divergences have been removed either by charge renormalization or regularization. No approximations have been made in the calculation of the second order cross section. In the third order calculation only the extreme relativistic approximation is given. The forms of the effective Lagrangian, corresponding to the low energy approximations have been determined.

The two-photon two-neutrino interaction induced by magnetic field is investigated. In particular the processes [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are studied in the presence of strong magnetic field. An effective Lagrangian and partial amplitudes of the processes are presented. Neutrino emissivities due to the reactions [Formula: see text] and [Formula: see text] are calculated taking into account the photon dispersion and large radiative corrections. A comparison of the results obtained with previous estimations and another inducing mechanisms of the processes under consideration is made.

We analyze the properties of electroweak chiral effective Lagrangian with an extendedSU(2)Rgauge group. Right-handedSU(2)Rgauge bosons affect electroweak observables by mixing with electroweak gauge bosonsWL,μandBμ. We discuss all possible mass mixing terms and calculate the exact physical mass eigenvalues by diagonalization of mixing matrix without any approximate assumptions. The contributions to oblique radiative corrections parameters STU fromSU(2)Rfields are also presented.

We study the inter-relations that exist between the present experimental bounds on the Higgs mass, as obtained from radiative corrections to mW, and the effective parameters, αi and Λ. We find that the SM bounds on mH, arising from a precise determination of the W mass, can be substantially modified by the presence of dimension-six operators which appear in the linear realization of the effective Lagrangian approach. A Higgs mass as heavy as 700 GeV can be allowed for scales of new physics of the order of 1 TeV.

The [Formula: see text] correction to the ρ parameter is computed using the current algebra formulation of radiative corrections. This approach is proved to be equivalent to the effective Lagrangian method proposed by Barbieri et al. The same framework is then applied to the calculation of the [Formula: see text] correction to the ratio of neutral-to-charged-current amplitudes in an SU(2) model. In this model the [Formula: see text] contribution is shown to be numerically comparable to the leading [Formula: see text] term for realistic values of the top mass.
