We present a functional method to perform complete one-instanton calculations of the axion potential. This is done for an $SU(N)$ gauge theory with a matter content in any representation of the gauge group. This type of computation requires…
We examine the effect of boson-fermion interaction in a one-dimensional Bose-Fermi mixture by using the density matrix renormalization group method. We show that the boson superfluidity is enhanced by fermions for a weak boson-fermion…
We obtain the phase diagram of a Bose-Fermi mixture of hardcore spinless Bosons and spin-polarized Fermions with nearest neighbor intra-species interaction and on-site inter-species repulsion in an optical lattice at half-filling using a…
The infinite-$U$ Anderson-Holstein impurity model is studied with a focus on the interplay between the strong electron correlation and the weak electron-phonon interaction. The slave boson method has been employed in combination with the…
The Gaussian fluctuations in slave-boson mean-field theory of $t-J$ model is analyzed in this paper in the low-doping regime where the superconducting to normal (pseudo-gap phase) transition is driven by vanishing of bose-condensation…
We study free fermionic models that host Majorana zero modes using the Majorana orthogonal transformation, which is a type of transformation between different fermionic models under Majorana representation of complex fermions. Using…
This manuscript is devoted to introduce a gauge theory of the Lorentz Group based on the ambiguity emerging in dealing with isometric diffeo-morphism-induced Lorentz transformations. The behaviors under local transformations of fermion…
In this note we examine the properties of deconstructed Higgsless models for the case of a fermion whose SU(2) properties arise from delocalization over many sites of the deconstructed lattice. We derive expressions for the correlation…
We investigate a spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ fermion chain minimally coupled to a $\mathbb{Z}_2$ gauge field. In the sector of the gauge generator $\hat G_j =-1$, the model reduces to the Hubbard model with repulsive onsite interaction coupled to a…
The extended Falicov-Kimball model, with both an on-site hybridization potential and dispersive narrow band, is examined within the saddle-point approximation to the Kotliar-Ruckenstein slave boson theory. We first set the hybridization…
We study the conditions under which D-brane instantons in Type II orientifold compactifications generate a non-perturbative superpotential. If the instanton is non-invariant under the orientifold action, it carries four instead of the two…
Fermion bound states in the background of the electroweak SU(2) monopole are investigated for various values of gauge coupling constant $g$, the Higgs self-coupling constant $\lambda$, and the Yukawa coupling constant $y_q$. Numerical…
We extend the rotationally invariant formulation of the slave-boson method to superconducting states. This generalization, building on the recent work by Lechermann et al. [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 76}, 155102 (2007)], allows to study…
Calorons in the confined phase for SU(n) gauge theory, having a non-trivial Polyakov loop, "dissolve" in n monopole constituents for large enough instanton scale parameters. We discuss recent results for these caloron solutions and their…
In this paper we study a $2+1$ dimensional system in which fermions are coupled to the self-dual topological vortex in $U(1) \times U(1)$ Chern-Simons theory, where both $U(1)$ gauge symmetries are spontaneously broken. We consider two…
Using the improved slave-boson approach of the t-J Hamiltonian [Phys. Rev. B 64, 052501 (2001)] that we developed recently, we report the hole doping and temperature dependence of the superfluid weight. It is shown that at low hole doping…
Results are presented from numerical simulations of the flat-space nonlinear Maxwell-Klein-Gordon-Dirac equations. The introduction of a boson-fermion interaction allows a scalar vortex to act as a harmonic trap that can confine massive…
We investigate a quantum many-body lattice system of one-dimensional spinless fermions interacting with a dynamical $Z_2$ gauge field. The gauge field mediates long-range attraction between fermions resulting in their confinement into…
Within a scaling ansatz formalism plus Thomas-Fermi approximation, we investigate the collective excitations of a harmonically trapped boson-fermion mixture in the collisionless and hydrodynamic limit at low temperature. Both the monopole…
Many popular models of fractionalized spin liquids contain neutral fermionic spinon excitations on a Fermi surface, carrying unit charges under a compact U(1) gauge force. We argue that instanton effects generically render such states…
