We calculate the $\theta$ dependence in a cousin of QCD, where the vacuum structure can be analyzed exactly. The theory is $\mathcal{N}=2$ $SU(2)$ gauge theory with $N_F=0,1,2,3$ flavors of fundamentals, explicitly broken to $\mathcal{N}=1$…
We consider the Widom--Rowlinson model on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ subject to a symmetric i.i.d.\ random field. We prove that for dimensions $d\le 2$ any non-trivial random field leads to an absence of a phase transition. In contrast, in dimensions…
We use Monte Carlo techniques and analytical methods to study the phase diagram of the M--component Widom-Rowlinson model on the bcc-lattice: there are M species all with the same fugacity z and a nearest neighbor hard core exclusion…
Interacting fermionic chains exhibit extended regions of topological degeneracy of their ground states as a result of the presence of Majorana or parafermionic zero modes localized at the edges. In the opposite limit of infinite…
