We study Quantum Electrodynamics in d=3 (QED_3) coupled to N_f flavors of fermions. The theory flows to an IR fixed point for N_f larger than some critical number N_f^c. For N_f<= N_f^c, chiral-symmetry breaking is believed to take place.…
Bosonisation of the massive Thirring model, with a non-minimal and non-abelian gauging is studied in 2+1-dimensions. The static abelian model is solved completely in the large fermion mass limit and the spectrum is obtained. The non-abelian…
The $ \beta $-functions of marginal couplings are known to be closely related to the $ A $-function through Osborn's equation, derived using the local renormalization group. It is possible to derive strong constraints on the…
We calculate fermion-antifermion-"meson" three-point functions in noncompact lattice QED with dynamical staggered fermions and use them to extract effective Yukawa couplings. The results are consistent with the hypothesis that QED is…
We start with a new first order gauge non-invariant formulation of massive spin-one theory and map it to a reducible gauge theory viz; abelian $B{\wedge}F$ theory by the Hamiltonian embedding procedure of Batalin, Fradkin and Tyutin(BFT).…
Both the gauge-invariant fermion Green function and gauge-dependent conventional Green function in $ 2+1 $ dimensional QED are studied in the large $ N $ limit. In temporal gauge, the infra-red divergence of gauge-dependent Green function…

In an effort to further understand the structure of effective actions for fermions in an external gauge background at finite temperature, we study the example of 1+1 dimensional fermions interacting with an arbitrary Abelian gauge field. We…
The noncommutative space $\mathbb{R}^3_\lambda$, a deformation of $\mathbb{R}^3$, supports a $3$-parameter family of gauge theory models with gauge-invariant harmonic term, stable vacuum and which are perturbatively finite to all orders.…
We give an outline of a recent proof that the low-energy effective gauge theory exhibiting quark confinement due to magnetic monopole condensation can be derived from QCD without any specific assumption. We emphasize that the low-energy…
We extend the construction of lattice chiral gauge theories based on non-perturbative gauge fixing to the non-abelian case. A key ingredient is that fermion doublers can be avoided at a novel type of critical point which is only accessible…
We calculate the third coefficient of the lattice beta function associated with the Wilson formulation for both gauge fields and fermions. This allows us to evaluate the three-loop correction (linear in $g_0^2$) to the relation between the…
We evaluate the noncommutative Chern-Simons action induced by fermions interacting with an Abelian gauge field in a noncommutative massive Thirring model in (2+1)-dimensional spacetime. This calculation is performed in the Dirac and…
We compute at the one-loop order the beta-functions for a renormalisable non-commutative analog of the Gross Neveu model defined on the Moyal plane. The calculation is performed within the so called x-space formalism. We find that this…
Nonperturbative lattice field theory simulations provide a systematic framework to investigate properties of conformal systems at strong couplings. These simulations can be performed using different lattice discretizations. Here we present…
We show that, in contrast to known results in the massive case, a minimally gauged massless Rarita-Schwinger field yields consistent classical and quantum theories, with a generalized fermionic gauge invariance. To simplify the algebra, we…

Based on the truncated Dyson-Schwinger equations for fermion and massive boson propagators in QED$_3$, the fermion chiral condensate and the mass singularities of the fermion propagator via the Schwinger function are investigated. It is…
We study the scalar $\phi^3$ theory above six dimensions. The beta function $\beta(g)=-\epsilon g-\frac{3}{4}g^3$ in $d=6-2\epsilon$ dimensions has a UV fixed point when $\epsilon<0$. Like the $O(N)$ vector models above four dimensions,…
We construct an effective Quantum Field Theory for the wrapping effects in 1+1 dimensional models of factorised scattering. The recently developed graph-theoretical approach to TBA gives the perturbative desctiption of this QFT. For the…
