Vignettes in string theory : using geometry to probe the worldsheet and strongly coupled physics
… is canceled by the classical anomaly of a gauged WZW model. Semi-classically, this corresponds to fibering the WZW model over the naive target space of the sigma model. When the gauge group is abelian, we recover known non-Kahler compactifications; non-abelian models describe novel quasi-geometric …

Generalisations of the MHV lagrangian theory to D-dimensions and to super-space
… Nair's formula which was originally derived from WZW model.

Studies on two topics in theoretical physics: Entanglement entropy and holographic superconductors
… of the result is the so-called S matrices of the WZW models associated with our Chern-Simons theories. We apply our results to the quantum Hall uids that are described by various kinds of Chern-Simons theories and calculate their S matrix elements. In chapter two we study the entanglement entropy …

BPS Approaches to Anyons, Quantum Hall States and Quantum Gravity
We study three types of theories, using supersymmetry and ideas from string theory as tools to gain understanding of systems of more general interest. Firstly, we introduce non-relativistic Chern-Simons-matter field theories in three dimensions and study their anyonic spectrum in a conformal phase. …
