We consider an extension of the standard electroweak theory with gauge group $SU(2)_L \times SU(2)_R \times U(1)_{\tilde{Y}}$, where the gauge bosons of the extra $SU(2)_R$ factor do not couple to ordinary fermions. We show that precision…

We discuss the behavior of theories of fermions coupled to Chern-Simons gauge fields with a non-abelian gauge group in three dimensions and at finite temperature. Using non-perturbative arguments and gauge invariance, and in contradiction…
We examine the claim that the effective action of four-dimensional SU(2)_L gauge theory at high and low temperature contains a three-dimensional Chern-Simons term with coefficient being the chemical potential for baryon number. We perform…
We study the alignment of the vacuum in fermionic gauge theories with enhanced global symmetries by adding a small explicit mass term. Specifically we center our investigations around the theories with two Dirac fermions in a real or…
The method of self-adjoint extensions is employed to determine the vacuum quantum numbers induced by a singular static magnetic vortex in $2+1$-dimensional spinor electrodynamics. The results obtained are gauge-invariant and, for certain…
We consider Fermions in a constant and uniform external $SU(2)$ magnetic field. We find that the results for the energy levels depend on the choice of gauge potential. Choosing a Landau type gauge potential yields his results. On the other…
QCD with gauge group $SU(N_c)$ flows to an interacting conformal fixed point in three spacetime dimensions when the number of four-component Dirac fermions $N_f \gg N_c$. We study the stability of this fixed point via the…
