In the first part of this lecture, the 1/N expansion technique is illustrated for the case of the large-N sigma model. In large-N gauge theories, the 1/N expansion is tantamount to sorting the Feynman diagrams according to their degree of…
It is shown by Monte Carlo method that the finite size scaling (FSS) holds in the two dimensional random-coupled Ising ferromagnet. It is also demonstrated that the form of universal FSS function constructed via novel FSS scheme depends on…
Scaling-invariant functions preserve the order of points when the points are scaled by the same positive scalar (with respect to a unique reference point). Composites of strictly monotonic functions with positively homogeneous functions are…
A method of functional reduction for the dimensionally regularized one-loop Feynman integrals with massive propagators is described in detail. The method is based on a repeated application of the functional relations proposed by the author.…
Any N=2 superconformal gauge theory (including N=4 SYM) contains a set of local operators made only out of fields in the N=2 vector multiplet that is closed under renormalization to all loops, namely the SU(2,1|2) sector. For planar N=4 SYM…
We study spin models underlying the non-planar dynamics of ${\cal N}=4$ SYM gauge theory. In particular, we derive the non-local spin chain Hamiltonian generating dilatations in the gauge theory at leading order in $g_{\rm YM}^2 N$ but…
We study the first sub-leading correction $O((\ln s)^0)$ to the cusp anomalous dimension in the high spin expansion of finite twist operators in ${\cal N}=4$ SYM theory. Since this approximation is still governed by a linear integral…
Generalized self-concordance is a key property present in the objective function of many important learning problems. We establish the convergence rate of a simple Frank-Wolfe variant that uses the open-loop step size strategy $\gamma_t =…
Extended simulation results and their analysis are reported in a strongly coupled gauge theory with twelve fermion flavors in the fundamental SU(3) color representation. The conformality of the model is probed using mass deformed conformal…
We propose a new strategy for the determination of the step scaling function $\sigma(u)$ in finite size scaling studies using the Gradient Flow. In this approach the determination of $\sigma(u)$ is broken in two pieces: a change of the flow…
In Grand Unified Theories (GUTs), the Standard Model (SM) gauge couplings need not be unified at the GUT scale due to the high-dimensional operators. Considering gravity mediated supersymmetry breaking, we study for the first time the…
We present a new unified theory of critical finite-size scaling for lattice statistical mechanical models with periodic boundary conditions above the upper critical dimension. Our theory is based on recent mathematically rigorous results…
Generalized sine and cosine functions, $\sin_{n}$ and $\cos_{n}$, that parametrize the generalized unit circle $x^n+y^n=1$ are, much like their classical circular counterparts, extendable as complex analytic functions. In this article, we…
We study the scaling law of the energy spectrum of classical strings on AdS_5 x S^5, in particular, in the SL(2) sector for large S (AdS spin) and fixed J (S^1 \subset S^5 spin). For any finite gap solution, we identify the limit in which…
We consider the anomalous dimension $\gamma_{gg}^{(3)}(N)$ of the twist-two gluon operator of arbitrary Lorentz spin $N$ in the quark flavor singlet sector of a general gauge theory at four loops and construct its contribution proportional…
We solve exactly the general one-dimensional $O(N)$-invariant spin model taking values in the sphere $S^{N-1}$, with nearest-neighbor interactions, in finite volume with periodic boundary conditions, by an expansion in hyperspherical…
We extend the theory of non-thermal fixed points to the case of anomalously slow universal scaling dynamics according to the sine-Gordon model. This entails the derivation of a kinetic equation for the momentum occupancy of the scalar field…
A shift-invariant system is a collection of functions $\{g_{m,n}\}$ of the form $g_{m,n}(k) = g_m(k-an)$. Such systems play an important role in time-frequency analysis and digital signal processing. A principal problem is to find a dual…
We generalize the generalized-squeezing problem to include fractional values of the squeezing order $n$. This approach allows us to determine the locations of critical points at which qualitative changes in behaviour occur and accurately…
Subject of this work are the applications of a field theoretical model, called here generalized nonlinear sigma model or simply GNLSM,to the dynamics of a chain subjected to constraints. Chains with similar properties and constraints have…
