We study a two-dimensional system of spin-polarized fermions on the kagome lattice at filling fraction f=1/3 interacting through a nearest-neighbor interaction V. Above a critical interaction strength V_c a charge-density wave with a broken…
In the two-dimensional CP(N-1) model one can parametrize exact many-instanton solutions via N `constituents' (called `zindons'). This parameterization allows, in principle, a complete `melting' of individual instantons. The model is…
The fermion-doubling problem can be an obstacle to getting half-a-qubit in two-dimensional fermionic tight-binding models in the form of Majorana zero modes bound to the core of superconducting vortices. We argue that the number of such…
The paired state of composite fermions is expected to support two kinds of excitations: vortices and unpaired composite fermions. We construct an explicit microscopic description of the unpaired composite fermions, which we demonstrate to…
Paradigme shift in gauge topology, from instantons to their constituents -- instanton-dyons -- has recently lead to very significant advances. Like instantons, they have fermionic zero modes, and their collectivization at sufficiently high…
In this paper we present a complete and exact spectral analysis of the $(1+1)$-dimensional model that Jackiw and Rebbi considered to show that the half-integral fermion numbers are possible due to the presence of an isolated self charge…
The pion form factors of the QCD energy-momentum tensor (EMT) are studied in the instanton liquid model (ILM) of the QCD vacuum. In this approach the breaking of conformal symmetry is encoded in the form of stronger-than-Poisson…
We demonstrate the existence of a broad class of non-perturbative fermionic solutions to the Euclidean supergravity equations of motion, which are half-BPS and nonsingular, possess zero action, and obey an (anti)self-duality condition.…
Spinless fermions on highly frustrated lattices are characterized by a lowest single-particle band which is completely flat. Concrete realizations are provided by the sawtooth chain and the kagome lattice. For these models a real-space…
We present a new calculation of the K->pi semileptonic form factor at zero momentum transfer in domain wall lattice QCD with Nf=2+1 dynamical quark flavours. By using partially twisted boundary conditions we simulate directly at the…
The scattering of Dirac fermions in the background fields of topological solitons of the $(2+1)$-dimensional $\mathbb{CP}^{N-1}$ model is studied using analytical and numerical methods. It is shown that the exact solutions for fermionic…
We investigate the strong-coupling limit of a three-component Fermi mixture in an optical lattice with attractive interactions. In this limit bound states (trions) of the three components are formed. We derive an effective Hamiltonian for…
'Constituent quarks' means massive quarks, in contrast to the nearly massless u,d,s quarks of the QCD lagrangian. The dynamical or constituent masses appear owing to the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in QCD. A realistic mechanism of…
This talk is a review of our studies of instantons and their properties as seen in our lattice simulations of SU(2) gauge theory. We have measured the topological susceptibility and the size distribution of instantons in the QCD vacuum. We…
The introduction of partially twisted boundary conditions allows weak and electromagnetic form factors to be evaluated at specified values of the hadronic momenta (and hence momentum transfers) in lattice simulations. We present and…
Charge dynamics in an interacting fermionic model on a geometrically frustrated lattice are examined. We analyze a spinless fermion model on a paired triangular lattice, an electronic model for layered iron oxides, in zero and finite…
We prove the existence of zero modes of massless quarks in a background of spaghetti vacuum of chromomagnetic vortices in QCD. We find a general solution for the zero modes and show that the modes can be localized at pairs of vortices.
The adjoint 2-dimensional $QCD$ with the gauge group $SU(N)/Z_N$ admits topologically nontrivial gauge field configurations associated with nontrivial $\pi_1[SU(N)/Z_N] = Z_N$. The topological sectors are labelled by an integer $k=0,\ldots,…
We study on the lattice the topology of SU(2) and SU(3) Yang-Mills theories at zero temperature and of QCD at temperatures around the phase transition. To smooth out dislocations and the UV noise we cool the configurations with an action…
We discuss the Matrix Model aspect of configurations saturating a fixed number of fermionic zero modes. This number is independent of the rank of the gauge group and the instanton number. This will allow us to define a large-$N_c$ limit of…
