Motivated by the recent interest in the criticality of open quantum many-body systems, we study nonlinear sigma models with complexified couplings as a general framework for nonunitary field theory. Applying the perturbative…
In perturbation theory we study the matching in four dimensions between the linear sigma model in the large mass limit and the renormalized nonlinear sigma model in the recently proposed flat connection formalism. We consider both the…
We develop a supersymmetric field theoretical description of the Gaussian ensemble of the almost diagonal Hermitian Random Matrices. The matrices have independent random entries H_{ij} with parametrically small off-diagonal elements…
We develop a supersymmetric virial expansion for two point correlation functions of almost diagonal Gaussian Random Matrix Ensembles (ADRMT) of the orthogonal symmetry. These ensembles have multiple applications in physics and can be used…
We study level correlations of disordered systems with chiral unitary symmetry (AIII symmetry). We use a random matrix model with a finite correlation length to derive a supersymmetric nonlinear sigma model. The result is compared with…
The Thirring model with random couplings is a translationally invariant generalisation of the SYK model to 1+1 dimensions, which is tractable in the large N limit. We compute its two point function, at large distances, for any strength of…
In this letter we show how to perform a systematic perturbative approach for the mode-coupling theory. The results coincide with those obtained via the replica approach. The upper critical dimension turns out to be always 8 and the…
In the spirit of classic works of Wilson on the renormalization group and operator product expansion, a new framework for the study of the theory space of euclidean quantum field theories has been introduced. This formalism is particularly…
We study the nonlinear supersymmetric hyperbolic sigma model introduced by Zirnbauer in 1991. This model can be related to the mixing measure of a vertex- reinforced jump process. We prove that the two-point correlation function has a…
We introduce a hierarchical system of approximations for summing both conventional perturbation theory and large N vector expansions of models in quantum field theory and condensed matter physics. Each stage of the hierarchy consists of a…
We develop a method for extracting accurate critical exponents from perturbation expansions of the O(n)-symmetric nonlinear sigma-model in D=2+ epsilon dimensions. This is possible by considering the epsilon-expansions in this model as…
In the present paper we extend to the massive case the procedure of divergences subtraction, previously introduced for the massless nonlinear sigma model (D=4). Perturbative expansion in the number of loops is successfully constructed. The…
Compact (ferro- and antiferromagnetic) sigma-models and noncompact (hyperbolic) sigma-models are compared in a lattice formulation in dimensions $d \geq 2$. While the ferro- and antiferromagnetic models are essentially equivalent, the…
Recently, the author has proposed a generalization of the matrix and vector models approach to the theory of random surfaces and polymers. The idea is to replace the simple matrix or vector (path) integrals by gauge theory or non-linear…
Recently a perturbative theory has been constructed, starting from the Feynman rules of the nonlinear sigma model at the tree level in the presence of an external vector source coupled to the flat connection and of a scalar source coupled…
A method is described for the extrapolation of perturbative expansions in powers of asymptotically small coupling parameters or other variables onto the region of finite variables and even to the variables tending to infinity. The method…
We consider a class of N=2 conformal SU(N) SYM theories in four dimensions with matter in the fundamental, two-index symmetric and anti-symmetric representations, and study the corresponding matrix model provided by localization on a sphere…
We argue that for a large class of N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories the effective superpotential as a function of the glueball chiral superfield is exactly given by a summation of planar diagrams of the same gauge theory. This perturbative…
Following recent work on GLSM localization, we work out curvature couplings for rigidly supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models with superpotential for general target spaces, describing both ordinary and twisted chiral superfields on round…
We investigate the principal chiral model between two and four dimensions by means of a non perturbative Wilson-like renormalization group equation. We are thus able to follow the evolution of the effective coupling constants within this…
