We have verified various proposals that were suggested in our last paper concerning the continuum limit of a compact formulation of the lattice U(1) pure gauge theory in 4 dimensions using a nonperturbative gauge-fixed regularization. Our…
We propose tubular field theory, which is a continuum analogue of lattice field theory. One-dimensional links (and zero-dimensional sites) in lattice field theory are replaced by two-dimensional tubes to result in two-dimensional spacetime…
We construct collective field theories associated with one-matrix plus $r$ vector models. Such field theories describe the continuum limit of spin Calogero Moser models. The invariant collective fields consist of a scalar density coupled to…
This paper proposes a general framework for nonperturbatively defining continuum quantum field theories. Unlike most such frameworks, the one offered here is finitary: continuum theories are defined by reducing large but finite quantum…
In this Letter we point out that the analytic solution of the two dimensional U(1) gauge theory, on a finite lattice, reveals in the continuum limit the renowned Manton's spectrum of topological electric fluxes together with their effective…
Motivated by recent discussions of the string-theory landscape, we propose field-theoretic realizations of models with large numbers of vacua. These models contain multiple U(1) gauge groups, and can be interpreted as deconstructed versions…
We analyze the possibility to construct a self-consistent gauge field theory in $D>4$. We first look for the cancellation of the UV divergences in SUSY theories. Then, following the Wilson RG approach, we study the RG equation for the gauge…
In generalized Yang-Mills theories scalar fields can be gauged just as vector fields in a usual Yang-Mills theory, albeit it is done in the spinorial representation. The presentation of these theories is aesthetic in the following sense: A…
Lattice gauge theories are fundamental to such distinct fields as particle physics, condensed matter, and quantum information science. Their local symmetries enforce the charge conservation observed in the laws of physics. Impressive…
In this paper, we obtain a gauge invariant effective action for a bulk massless $U(1)$ gauge vector field on a brane with codimension two by using a general Kaluza-Klein (KK) decomposition for the field. It suggests that there exist two…
We consider electric flux tube solutions in SU(3) gauge theory with scalar fields in the fundamental representation. Such solutions can possibly be constructed in two classes, corresponding to the two maximally commuting generators…
Recent work on Euler hierarchies of field theory Lagrangians iteratively constructed {}from their successive equations of motion is briefly reviewed. On the one hand, a certain triality structure is described, relating arbitrary field…
The standard model of particle physics is generalized so as to be furnished with a horizontal symmetry generated by an intermediary algebra between simple Lie algebras $\mathfrak{su}(2)$ and $\mathfrak{su}(3)$. Above a certain high energy…
Generalizing the noncommutative harmonic oscillator construction, we propose a new extension of quantum field theory based on the concept of "noncommutative fields". Our description permits to break the usual particle-antiparticle…
We construct several quantum gauge theories in 4 dimensional space time, including both Abelian and non Abelian gauge groups, with the Abelian gauge fields coupled to zero mass matter fields. The construction occurs in a fixed finite…
We study two different SU(2) gauge-scalar theories in 3 and 4 spacetime dimensions. Firstly, we focus on the 3 dimensional SU(2) theory with multiple Higgs fields in the adjoint representation, that can be mapped to cuprate systems in…
We develop Kummer theory for algebraic function fields in finitely many transcendental variables. We consider any finitely generated Kummer extension (possibly, over a cyclotomic extension) of an algebraic function field, and describe the…
In this article, we explore the low energy structure of a $U(3)$ gauge theory over spaces with fuzzy sphere(s) as extra dimensions. In particular, we determine the equivariant parametrization of the gauge fields, which transform either…
We formulate the theory of a 2-form gauge field on a Euclidean spacetime lattice. In this approach, the fundamental degrees of freedom live on the faces of the lattice, and the action can be constructed from the sum over Wilson surfaces…
We write the partition function for a lattice gauge theory, with compact gauge group, exactly in terms of unconstrained variables and show that, in the mean field approximation, the dynamics of pure gauge theories, invariant under compact,…
