Gauge-invariant polynomial functions of matrix and tensor variables capture combinatorial structures of gauge-string duality, which can be usefully organised using finite-dimensional associative algebras. I review recent work on eigenvalue…
We analyze the structure of the scattering matrix, $S(k)$, for the one dimensional Morse potential. We show that, in addition to a finite number of bound state poles and an infinite number of anti-bound poles, there exist an infinite number…
Let $V$ be a vertex operator algebra and $g$ an automorphism of finite order. We construct an associative algebra $A_g(V)$ and a pair of functors between the category of $A_g(V)$-modules and a certain category of admissible $g$-twisted…
Let G be a reductive group (over an algebraically closed field) equipped with the metaplectic data. In this paper we study the corresponding twisted Whittaker category for G. We construct and study a functor from the latter category to the…
We study N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories on squashed 3-sphere and S^1xS^2. Recent studies have shown that the partition functions in a class of N=2 theories have factorized forms in terms of vortex and anti-vortex partition functions by…
The concept of a weak factorization system has been studied extensively in homotopy theory and has recently found an application in one of the proofs of the celebrated flat cover conjecture, categorical versions of which have been presented…
Over a finite field $\mathbb{F}_{q^m}$, the evaluation of skew polynomials is intimately related to the evaluation of linearized polynomials. This connection allows one to relate the concept of polynomial independence defined for skew…
We introduce weighted cycles on weaves of general Dynkin types and define a skew-symmetrizable intersection pairing between weighted cycles. We prove that weighted cycles on a weave form a Laurent polynomial algebra and construct a…
Let $\mathcal{S}$ be a small category, and suppose that we are given two (non-full) subcategories $\mathcal{S}^{sm}$ and $\mathcal{S}^{cl}$ that generate all morphisms of $\mathcal{S}$ under composition in the same way as morphisms of…
Our aim is to construct fibrewise localizations in model categories. For pointed spaces, the general idea is to decompose the total space of a fibration as a diagram over the category of simplices of the base and replace it by the localized…
We review particle physics model building in type IIB string theory and F-theory. This is a region in the landscape where in principle many of the key ingredients required for a realistic model of particle physics can be combined…
Hamiltonian models based on a localized basis set are widely used in condensed matter physics, as, for example, for the calculation of electronic structures or transport properties. The presence of a weak and homogeneous magnetic field can…

The lattice model of scalar quantum electrodynamics (Maxwell field coupled to a complex scalar field) in the Hamiltonian framework is discussed. It is shown that the algebra of observables ${\cal O}({\Lambda})$ of this model is a…
In the following paper, which is based on the authors PhD thesis submitted to Imperial College London, we explore the applicability of Yangian symmetry to various integrable models, in particular, in relation with S-matrices. One of the…
The study of certain differential operators between Sobolev spaces of sections of vector bundles on compact manifolds equipped with rough metric is closely related to the study of locally Sobolev functions on domains in the Euclidean space.…
From the quantum field theory point of view, matter and gauge fields are generally expected to be localised around branes or topological defects occurring in extra dimensions. Here I discuss a simple scenario where, by starting with a five…
We introduce a nonlocal vector calculus on the unit two-sphere using weakly singular integral operators. Within this framework, the operators are diagonalizable in terms of scalar and vector spherical harmonics, a property that facilitates…
Polarization-free generators, i.e. ``interacting'' Heisenberg operators which are localized in wedge-shaped regions of Minkowski space and generate single particle states from the vacuum, are a novel tool in the analysis and synthesis of…
The notion of Weyl modules, both local and global, goes back to Chari and Pressley in the case of affine Lie algebras, and has been extensively studied for various Lie algebras graded by root systems. We extend that definition to a certain…
