We study the classical thermodynamics of the double sinh-Gordon (DSHG) theory in 1+1 dimensions. This model theory has a double well potential, thus allowing for the existence of kinks and antikinks. Though it is nonintegrable, the DSHG…

We demonstrate a general gauging procedure of a pure matter theory on a lattice with a mixture of subsystem and global symmetries. This mixed symmetry can be either a semidirect product of a subsystem symmetry and a global symmetry, or a…
In this paper, we introduce a novel and general method for computing partition functions of solvable lattice models with free fermionic Boltzmann weights. The method is based on the ``permutation graph'' and the ``$F$-matrix'': the…
The classical motion of spinning particles can be described without employing Grassmann variables or Clifford algebras, but simply by generalizing the usual spinless theory. We only assume the invariance with respect to the Poincare' group;…
Aiming at the study of critical phenomena in the presence of boundaries with a non-trivial shape we discuss how lattices with an adaptive lattice spacing can be implemented. Since the parameters of the Hamiltonian transform non-trivially…
We consider 4d supersymmetric (special) unitary $\Gamma$ quiver gauge theories on compact manifolds which are $T^2$ fibrations over $S^2$. We show that their partition functions are correlators of vertex operators and screening charges of…
We propose an approach of lattice gauge theory based on a homotopic interpretation of its degrees of freedom. The basic idea is to dress the plaquettes of the lattice to view them as elementary homotopies between nearby paths. Instead of…
We study the computational complexity of approximately computing the partition function of a spin system. Techniques based on standard counting-to-sampling reductions yield $\tilde{O}(n^2)$-time algorithms, where $n$ is the size of the…
