We consider the ground state of a one-dimensional critical quantum system carrying a global symmetry in the bulk, which is explicitly broken by its boundary conditions. We probe the system via a string-order parameter, showing how it…
Based on Bergman's Lemma on centralizers, we obtain a sharp lower degree bound for nonconstant elements in a subalgebra generated by two elements of a free associative algebra over an arbitrary field.

The evaluation homomorphisms from the super Yangian $\Ymn$ to the universal enveloping algebra $\U(\gl_{m|n})$ allows one to regard the covariant tensor module of $\gl_{m|n}$ as $\Ymn$ modules. We study simple quotients of the submodules…
We discuss the new integrable boundary conditions for the O(N) nonlinear $\sigma$ model and related solutions of the boundary Yang-Baxter equation, which were presented in our previous paper hep-th/0108039.
A self-contained description of algebraic structures, obtained by combinations of various limit procedures applied to vertex and face sl(2) elliptic quantum affine algebras, is given. New double Yangians structures of dynamical type are in…
We explore supersymmetry breaking in the light of a rich fixed-point structure of two-dimensional supersymmetric Wess-Zumino models with one supercharge using the functional renormalization group (RG). We relate the dynamical breaking of…
Scattering amplitudes in planar N=4 super Yang-Mills theory reveal a remarkable symmetry structure. In addition to the superconformal symmetry of the Lagrangian of the theory, the planar amplitudes exhibit a dual superconformal symmetry.…
A mechanism of supersymmetry breaking in two or four-dimensions is given, in which the breaking is related to the Fermat's last theorem. It is shown that supersymmetry is exact at some irrational number points in parameter space, while it…
In this thesis we analyze the problem of symmetry breaking in models with extra dimensions compactified on orbifolds. In the first chapter we briefly review the main symmetry breaking mechanisms peculiar of extra dimensions such as the…
We show that the isometries of the manifold of scalars in $N=2$ supergravity in $d=5$ space-time dimensions can be broken by the supergravity interactions. The opposite conclusion holds for the dimensionally reduced $d=4$ theories, where…
Some formal aspects of supersymmetry breaking are reviewed. The classic "requirements" for supersymmetry breaking include chiral matter, a dynamical superpotential, and a classical superpotential which completely lifts the moduli space.…
In this paper, for a given finitely generated algebra (an algebraic structure with arbitrary operations and no predicates) A we study finitely generated limit algebras of A, approaching them via model theory and algebraic geometry. Along…
This paper studies three results that describe the structure of the super-coinvariant algebra of pseudo-reflection groups over a field of characteristic $0$. Our most general result determines the top component in total degree, which we…
Effects of boundary conditions of fields for compactified space directions on the supersymmetric gauge theories are discussed. For general and possible boundary conditions the supersymmetry is explicitly broken to yield universal soft…
We consider supersymmetry algebras in space-times with arbitrary signature and minimal number of spinor generators. The interrelation between super Poincar\'e and super conformal algebras is elucidated. Minimal super conformal algebras are…
In this paper, we obtain the explicit expression of the supersymmetric algebra associated with the recently proposed massive supermembrane including all surface terms. We formulate the theory as the limit of a supermembrane on a genus-two…
We perform the matching required to compute the leading effective boundary contribution to the QED lagrangian in the presence of a conducting surface, once the electron is integrated out. Our result resolves a confusion in the literature…
The statistical model of crystal melting represents BPS configurations of D-branes on a toric Calabi-Yau three-fold. Recently it has been noticed that an infinite-dimensional algebra, the quiver Yangian, acts consistently on the…
We study spin chains with boundaries that are dual to open strings suspended between systems of giant gravitons and dual giant gravitons. The anomalous dimensions computed in the gauge theory are in complete quantitative agreement with…
