We study 4-dimensional SU(N) gauge theory with one adjoint Weyl fermion and fundamental matter - either bosonic or fermionic. Symmetries, their 't Hooft anomalies, and the Vafa-Witten-Weingarten theorems strongly constrain the possible bulk…
We explore a $Z_2$ Hamiltonian lattice gauge theory in one spatial dimension with a coupling $h$, without imposing any Gauss' law constraint. We show that in our model $h=0$ is a free deconfined quantum critical point containing massless…

Recently it has been found that in a noncompact lattice regularization of the SU(2) gauge theory the physical volume is larger than in the Wilson theory with the same number of sites. In its original formulation the noncompact…
We investigate strong-to-weak coupling transitions in D=2+1 SU(N->oo) gauge theories, by simulating lattice theories with a Wilson plaquette action. We find that there is a strong-to-weak coupling cross-over in the lattice theory that…

We analyze the dynamics of an $SU_L(2)\otimes U_R(1)$ chiral gauge theory on a lattice with a large multifermion coupling $1\ll g_2 < \infty$. It is shown that no spontaneous symmetry breaking occurs; the ``spectator'' fermion $\psi_R(x)$…
We consider 2-dimensional QCD on a cylinder, where space is a circle. We find the ground state of the system in case of massless quarks in a $1/N$ expansion. We find that coupling to fermions nontrivially modifies the large $N$ saddle point…
