A familiar anomaly affects SU(2) gauge theory in four dimensions: a theory with an odd number of fermion multiplets in the spin 1/2 representation of the gauge group, and more generally in representations of spin 2r+1/2, is inconsistent. We…

We study the zero modes of the Abelian Dirac operator in any odd dimension. We use the stereographic projection between a $(2n-1)$ dimensional space and a $(2n-1)$ sphere embedded in a $2n$ dimensional space. It is shown that the Dirac…

$1+1$-dimensional $SU(N)$ gauge theory coupled to an adjoint Majorana fermion, also known as adjoint QCD$_2$, has the surprising feature that at fermion mass $\sqrt{\frac{g^2 N}{2 \pi}}$ it exhibits supersymmetry. In this paper, we obtain a…

We present a study of spectroscopy of SU(4) lattice gauge theory coupled to two flavors of Dirac fermions in the anti-symmetric two index representation. The fermion representation is real, and the pattern of chiral symmetry breaking is…

We prove a Mahoux-Mehta--type theorem for finite-volume partition functions of SU(N_c\geq 3) gauge theories coupled to fermions in the fundamental representation. The large-volume limit is taken with the constraint V << 1/m_{\pi}^4. The…

The feasibility of studying, numerically, properties of infinite volume QCD-like theories in the large $N$ limit using coherent state variational methods is reassessed. An entirely new implementation of this approach is described,…

We study the anomalous dimensions for scalar operators in ABJM theory in the SU(2) sector. The operators we consider have a classical dimension that grows as N in the large N limit. Consequently, the large N limit is not captured by summing…

A detailed investigation of finite size effects is performed for SU(2) gauge theory with two fermions in the adjoint representation, which previous lattice studies have shown to be inside the conformal window. The system is investigated…

The mode number of the Dirac operator scales with an exponent related to the mass anomalous dimension gamma_m. This relation holds both in IR-conformal systems, as well as in confining systems for large enough eigenvalues. We investigate…
