Poisson-Sigma-Models: A Generalization of 2-D Gravity Yang-Mills-Systems
  A new class of two dimensional integrable field theories, based on the mathematical notion of Poisson manifolds, and containing gravity-Yang-Mills systems as well as the G/G gauged Wess-Zumino Witten-model, are presented. The local solutions of the classical equations of motions as well as a scheme for the quantization in a Hamiltonian formulation is presented for the general model. Partial results of a calculation of the partition function on arbitrary Riemann surfaces via path integral techniques are given.
