We study Delsarte-type problems for positive definite functions on compact Gelfand pairs as infinite-dimensional linear programming problems. This setup includes, as a particular case, the case of compact Abelian groups. Depending on the…
Lattice four-fermion models containing $N$ flavors of staggered fermions, that are invariant under $Z_2$ and U(1) chiral symmetries, are known to suffer from sign problems when formulated using the auxiliary field approach. Although these…
Abelian fermion models described by the SLAC action are considered on a finite 2d lattice. It is shown that modification of these models by introducing additional Pauli - Villars regularization supresses nonlocal effects and provides…
The sign problem is a major obstacle to our understanding of the phase diagram of QCD at finite baryon density. Several numerical methods have been proposed to tackle this problem, but a full solution to the sign problem is still elusive.…
Combining tools from category theory, model theory, and non-standard analysis we extend Baker-Beynon dualities to the classes of all Abelian $\ell$-groups and all Riesz spaces (also known as vector lattices). The extended dualities have a…
Quantum computers have the potential to explore the vast Hilbert space of entangled states that play an important role in the behavior of strongly interacting matter. This opportunity motivates reconsidering the Hamiltonian formulation of…
In this paper it is studied a space-time duality web that maps electric into magnetic (and magnetic into electric) charged classical stationary rotating solutions for $2+1$-dimensional Abelian Einstein Maxwell Chern-Simons theories. A first…
We derive gauge covariant self-dual equations for the $SU(2) \times U(1)_Y$ theory of electro-weak interactions and show that they admit solutions describing a periodic lattice of Z-strings.} \newpage
We consider the problem of local correlations in the kicked, dual-unitary coupled maps on D-dimensional lattices. We demonstrate that for D>=2, fully dual-unitary systems exhibit ultra-local correlations: the correlations between any pair…
The solutions of the classical equations of motion on a periodic lattice are found which correspond to abelian single and double Dirac sheets. These solutions exist also in non--abelian theories. Possible applications of these solutions to…
We discuss a particular lattice discretization of abelian gauge theories in arbitrary dimensions. The construction is based on gauging the center symmetry of a non-compact abelian gauge theory, which results in a Villain type action. We…
We start by describing two of the main proposals for duality in Abelian gauge theories, namely $F$(ield strength)-duality approach and the $S$% -duality formalism. We then discuss how $F$-duality and $S$-duality can be applied to the case…
Duality relations are explicitly established relating the Hamiltonians and basis classification schemes associated with the number-conserving unitary and number-nonconserving quasispin algebras for the two-level system with pairing…
A modification of the Abelian Duality transformations is proposed guaranteeing that a (not necessarily conformally invariant) $\sigma$-model be quantum equivalent (at least up to two loops in perturbation theory) to its dual. This requires…
Coupling spin models to complex external fields can give rise to interesting phenomena like zeroes of the partition function (Lee-Yang zeroes, edge singularities) or oscillating propagators. Unfortunately, it usually also leads to a severe…
A class of two-dimensional globally scale-invariant, but not conformally invariant, theories is obtained. These systems are identified in the process of discussing global and local scaling properties of models related by duality…
We study a generalization of the group of loops based on sets of signed points, instead of paths or loops. This geometrical setting incorporates the kinematical constraints of the Sigma Model, inasmuch as the the group of loops does with…
We suggest a class of two-dimensional lattice spin Hamiltonians describing non-Abelian SU(2) chiral spin liquids - spin-analogues of fractional non-Abelian quantum Hall states- with gapped bulk and gapless chiral edge excitations described…
Lattice QCD simulations of multi-baryon correlation functions can predict the structure and reactions of nuclei without encountering the baryon chemical potential sign problem. However, they suffer from a signal-to-noise problem where Monte…
Duality methods are used to generate explicit solutions to nonlinear Hodge systems, demonstrate the well-posedness of boundary value problems, and reveal, via the Hodge-B\"acklund transformation, underlying symmetries among superficially…
