• Canonical quantization of a two-dimensional model with anomalous breaking of gauge invariance 

      Girotti, Horacio Oscar; Rothe, Heinz J.; Rothe, Klaus D. (1986) [Artigo de periódico]
      We investigate in detail the operator quantum dynamics of a two-dimensional model exhibiting anomalous breaking of gauge invariance. The equal-time algebra is systematically obtained by using the Dirac-bracket formalism ...
    • Chiral bosonization 

      Girotti, Horacio Oscar; Gomes, Marcelo; Rivelles, Victor O.; Silva, Adilson J. da; Kurak, V. (1988) [Artigo de periódico]
      We show that the Dirac-bracket quantization of a single self-dual field leads naturally to the bosonization formulas. We find a numerical parameter describing the soliton charge and unveiling hidden soliton sectors.
    • Dynamics of gauge systems and Dirac's conjecture 

      Costa, Mario Eduardo Vieira da; Girotti, Horacio Oscar; Simoes, Tiago Josue Martins (1985) [Artigo de periódico]
      For systems possessing only first-class constraints, we rigorously prove that the secondary constraints act as independent generators of gauge transformations (Dirac's conjecture). The proof essentially consists in ...
    • A física dos quarks e a epistemologia 

      Moreira, Marco Antonio (2007) [Artigo de periódico]
      O objetivo deste trabalho é o de apresentar, conceitualmente, a física dos quarks como um assunto acessível e motivador que ilustra, de maneira inequívoca, a relação teoria e experimentação em física. Conta-se a história ...
    • Manifestly covariant approach for the one-soliton sector 

      Girotti, Horacio Oscar (1978) [Artigo de periódico]
      The one-loop contributions to the meson propagator and to the meson-soliton scattering amplitude in the one-soliton sector are analyzed using ordinary Feynman rules. It is found that, at the level of the propagator, the ...
    • Reply to comment on "attractive forces bertween electrons in (2+1) - dimensional-qed" 

      Girotti, Horacio Oscar; Gomes, Marcelo; Mendes, R.S.; Lyra, J.L. de; Nascimento, J.R.S.; Silva, Adilson J. da (1993) [Artigo de periódico]
    • Saturation of the massive Schwinger model 

      Girotti, Horacio Oscar (1980) [Artigo de periódico]
      We determine the field configurations saturating the massive Schwinger model (MSM). Fermion confinement is proved, for the MSM, without invoking the Bose form of the theory. A gas of induced instantons accounts for the ...
