A class of matrix models which arises as partition function in U(N) Chern-Simons matter theories on three sphere is investigated. Employing the standard technique of the 1/N expansion we solve the system beyond the planar limit. In…
We show that matrix models in Chern-Simons theory admit an interpretation as 1D exactly solvable models, paralleling the relationship between the Gaussian matrix model and the Calogero model. We compute the corresponding Hamiltonians,…

We analyze a two dimensional model of gauged fermions with quartic couplings in the large-N limit. This combines the 't Hooft model and the Gross-Neveu model where the coupling constants of both theories are arbitrary. Analytic equations…

We formulate a model of N_f=4 flavors of relativistic fermion in 2+1d in the presence of a chemical potential mu coupled to two flavor doublets with opposite sign, akin to isopsin chemical potential in QCD. This is argued to be an effective…
We study the vacuum structure of three-dimensional $SU(N)$ gauge theory coupled to a Chern-Simons term at level $k$ and to $F$ fundamental Dirac fermions. We use a large $N$ holographic description based on a D3/D7 system in type IIB string…
We consider a version of the Gross-Neveu model in 1+1 dimensions with discrete chiral and continuous flavor symmetry (isospin). In 2+1 dimensions, this model is known as chiral Heisenberg Gross-Neveu model. Spontaneous symmetry breaking and…
During the last few years, the phase diagram of the large N Gross-Neveu model in 1+1 dimensions at finite temperature and chemical potential has undergone a major revision. Here we present a streamlined account of this development,…
For all the success of the Standard Model (SM), it is on the verge of being surpassed. In this regard we argue, by showing a minimal flavor-structured model based on the non-Abelian discrete $SL_2(F_3)$ symmetry, that $U(1)$…
In this paper we discuss SU(N) Chern-Simons theories at level k with both fermionic and bosonic vector matter. In particular we present an exact calculation of the free energy of the N=2 supersymmetric model (with one chiral field) for all…
We investigate the critical behavior of three-dimensional ferromagnetic CP(N-1) models, which are characterized by a global U(N) and a local U(1) symmetry. We perform numerical simulations of a lattice model for N=2, 3, and 4. For N=2 we…

We present a self-dual parity-invariant $U(1) \times U(1)$ Maxwell-Chern-Simons scalar $\text{QED}_3$. We show that the energy functional admits a Bogomol'nyi-type lower bound, whose saturation gives rise to first order self-duality…
