We consider a spin-1/2 fermionic ladder with spin-orbit coupling and a perpendicular magnetic field, which shares important similarities with topological superconducting wires. We fully characterize the symmetry-protected topological phase…

We report on the Lattice determination of the semileptonic form factors by lattice QCD. Comparison with the light-cone QCD sum rules are made for $\Btopi, \Btorho$ semileptonic decays.

We reprove a theorem of Bunn, Grow, Insall, and Thiem, which asserts that a minimal congruence lattice representation for $\mathbb M_{p+1}$ has size $2p$, and is an expansion of a regular $D_{2p}$-set.

Simulations of supersymmetric field theories on the lattice with (spontaneously) broken supersymmetry suffer from a fermion sign problem related to the vanishing of the Witten index. We propose a novel approach which solves this problem in…

After mentioning some of the difficulties arising in lattice gauge theory from chiral symmetry, I discuss one of the recent attempts to resolve these issues using fermionic surface states in an extra space-time dimension. This picture can…

Using a summation formula due to Burge, and a combinatorial identity between partition pairs, we obtain an infinite tree of q-polynomial identities for the Virasoro characters \chi^{p, p'}_{r, s}, dependent on two finite size parameters M…

Let $L$ be a positive definite (non-classic) ternary $\z$-lattice and let $p$ be a prime such that a $\frac 12\z_p$-modular component of $L_p$ is nonzero isotropic and $4\cdot dL$ is not divisible by $p$. For a nonnegative integer $m$, let…

We study the vector, scalar and tensor form factors for the semileptonic process $D\rightarrow K$ by using lattice Quantum Chromodynamcs (QCD). Chiral lattice fermions are used in our study: overlap fermion for the valence quark and…

We study and simulate N=2 supersymmetric Wess-Zumino models in one and two dimensions. For any choice of the lattice derivative, the theories can be made manifestly supersymmetric by adding appropriate improvement terms corresponding to…

Simulations with 2+1 flavors of domain wall fermions provide us with the opportunity to compare the lattice data directly to the predictions of continuum chiral perturbation theory, up to corrections from the residual chiral symmetry…

Let $I = (i_1, \dots, i_k)$ and $J = (j_1, \dots, j_k)$ be two length $k$ sequences drawn from $\{1, \dots, n \}$. We have the group algebra element $[I,J] := \sum_{w(I) = J} w \in \mathbb{C}[\mathfrak{S}_n]$ where the sum is over…

We report on our study of the D meson semileptonic decays in 2+1 flavor lattice QCD. Gauge ensembles are generated at three lattice cutoffs up to 4.5 GeV and with pion masses as low as 300 MeV. We employ the Moebius domain-wall fermion…

We present our full analysis of the two flavor Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model with $SU(2) \times SU(2)$ chiral symmetry on the four--dimensional hypercubic lattice with naive and Wilson fermions. We find that this model is an excellent toy field…

In a recent preprint, Lai worked out the quotient of generating functions of weighted lozenge tilings of two "half hexagons with lateral dents" which differ only in width. Lai achieved this by using "graphical condensation" (i.e.,…

We derive Ginsparg-Wilson relation for a lattice chiral symmetry in theories with self-interacting fermions. Auxiliary scalar and pseudo-scalar fields are introduced on a coarse lattice to give an effective description of the fermionic…

We present fermionic quasi-particle sum representations for some of the characters (or branching functions) of ~${(G^{(1)})_1 \times (G^{(1)})_1 \o (G^{(1)})_2}$ ~for all simply-laced Lie algebras $G$. For given $G$ the characters are…

The determination of $\vert V_{us}\vert$ from kaon semileptonic decays requires the value of the form factor $f_+(q^2=0)$, which can be calculated precisely on the lattice. We provide the one-loop partially quenched staggered chiral…

We give the {\it spectral decomposition} of the path space of the $U_q(\hatsl)$ vertex model with respect to the local energy functions. The result suggests the hidden Yangian module structure on the $\hatsl$ level $l$ integrable modules,…

We introduce a lattice model of protein conformations which is able to reproduce second structures of proteins (alpha--helices and beta--sheets). This model is based on the following two main ideas. First, we model backbone parts of amino…
