Given a locally compact abelian group $G$ and a closed subgroup $\Lambda$ in $G\times\widehat{G}$, Rieffel associated to $\Lambda$ a Hilbert $C^*$-module $\mathcal{E}$, known as a Heisenberg module. He proved that $\mathcal{E}$ is an…
We analyze the spectrum of the exactly duality and gauge invariant higher-derivative double field theory. While this theory is based on a chiral CFT and does not correspond to a standard string theory, our analysis illuminates a number of…
A new duality is proposed in four-dimensional flat space, which exchanges between spin and orbital degrees of freedom. This is motivated by a Hodge decomposition of the angular-momentum bivector for massive fields, along which spin and…
We continue the survey initiated in arXiv:2012.14197 to explore the Bethe/Gauge correspondence between supersymmetric SO/Sp gauge theories in 2d/3d/4d and open spin chain with integrable boundaries. We collect the known Bethe ansatz…
In this thesis we review the Seiberg-Witten solution of four dimensional N=2 gauge theories, the six-dimensional construction of these models recently proposed by Gaiotto and the BPS quiver technique for the determination of the BPS…
An attempt is made to formulate Gaiotto's S-duality relations in an explicit quantitative form. Formally the problem is that of evaluation of the Racah coefficients for the Virasoro algebra, and we approach it with the help of the matrix…
We establish $({\mathfrak{gl}}_M, {\mathfrak{gl}}_N)$-dualities between quantum Gaudin models with irregular singularities. Specifically, for any $M, N \in {\mathbb Z}_{\geq 1}$ we consider two Gaudin models: the one associated with the Lie…
We study a connection between duality and topological field theories. First, 2d Kramers-Wannier duality is formulated as a simple 3d topological claim (more or less Poincare duality), and a similar formulation is given for…
We consider strongly interacting supersymmetric gauge theories which break dynamically the GUT symmetry and produce the light Higgs doublets naturally. Two models we proposed in the previous articles are reanalyzed as two phases of one…
We discuss the quasiclassical geometry and integrable systems related to the gauge/string duality. The analysis of quasiclassical solutions to the Bethe anzatz equations arising in the context of the AdS/CFT correspondence is performed,…
We formulate a closed set of equations for the spectrum of two-dimensional bi-scalar fishnet conformal field theory, comprising Baxter equations and quantisation conditions, which we derive operatorially from the underlying sl(2) spin…
In this paper, we give an geometric description of the Schur-Weyl duality for two-parameter quantum algebras $U_{v, t}(gl_n)$, where $U_{v, t}(gl_n)$ is the deformation of $U_v(I, \cdot)$, the classic Shur-Weyl duality $(U_{r, s}(gl_n),…
The three-dimensional abelian Higgs model has been argued to be dual to a scalar field theory with a global U(1) symmetry. We show that this duality, together with the scaling and universality hypotheses, implies a scaling law for the…
We exhibit a relationship between the massless $a_2^{(2)}$ integrable quantum field theory and a certain third-order ordinary differential equation, thereby extending a recent result connecting the massless sine-Gordon model to the…
Mass spectra are calculated for ${\cal N}=1$ SQCD and SQCD-type theories and for softly broken ${\cal N}=2$ SQCD in vacua with unbroken $Z_{(2N_c-N_F)\geq 2}$ symmetry. It is shown that the Seiberg ${\cal N}=1$ duality works, at best, for…
We propose a few tests of Seiberg-Witten solutions of $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories by the instanton calculus in twisted gauge theories. We re-examine the low-energy effective abelian theory in the presence of sources and…
We continue with the program of hep-th/0308184 to implement open-closed string duality on free gauge field theory (in the large $N$ limit). In this paper we consider correlators such as $\la \prod_{i=1}^n \Tr\Phi^{J_i}(x_i)\ra$. The…
The problem of quantum equivalence between non-linear sigma models related by Abelian or non-Abelian T-duality is studied in perturbation theory. Using the anomalous Ward identity for Weyl symmetry we derive a relation between the Weyl…
Dual symmetry is an intrinsic property of Maxwell's equations, corresponding to a global U(1) symmetry in vacuum, with helicity as the associated conserved quantity. In this paper, we investigate light propagation in a spin-degenerate…
We demonstrate the agreement between the Higgs branches of two N=2 theories proposed by Argyres and Seiberg to be S-dual, namely the SU(3) gauge theory with six quarks, and the SU(2) gauge theory with one pair of quarks coupled to the…
