It is known that exactly self-dual gauge-field configurations with topological charge |Q|=1 cannot exist on the untwisted continuum 4-torus. We explore the manifestation of this remarkable fact on the lattice 4-torus for SU(3) using…

Livine and Bonzom recently proposed a geometric formula for a certain set of complex zeros of the partition function of the Ising model defined on planar graphs. Remarkably, the zeros depend locally on the geometry of an immersion of the…
Following the work of Asai, Kaneko, and Ninomiya for Faber polynomials associated to $\mathrm{PSL}_2(\mathbb{Z})$, and Bannai, Kojima, and Miezaki's partial proof for the case of $\Gamma_0^*(2)$, we show that the zeros of certain modular…

An extended version of 4-d SU(2) lattice gauge theory is considered in which different inverse coupling parameters are used, $\beta_H=4/g_{H}^2$ for plaquettes which are purely spacelike, and $\beta_V$ for those which involve the Euclidean…
