We study line defects in the fermionic CFTs in the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa universality class in dimensions $2<d<4$. These CFTs may be described as the IR fixed points of the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa (GNY) model in $d=4-\epsilon$, or as the UV fixed…

The presence of an infinite number of marginal four-fermion operators is a key characteristic of the two-dimensional Gross-Neveu model. In this study, we investigate the structure of UV divergences in this model, and by symmetry argument we…
We investigate the possibility of unitarity violation in the sequential neutrino mixing matrix in a scenario with extra compact spacelike dimensions. Gauge singlet neutrinos are assumed to propagate in one extra dimension, giving rise to an…

Evidence for relativistic quantum criticality of antiferromagnetism and superconductivity in two-dimensional Dirac fermion systems has been found in large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations. However, the corresponding ($2+1$)-dimensional…
We showed in a previous publication that there are six independent dimension-seven operators violating both lepton and baryon numbers ($L=-B=1$) and twelve ones violating lepton but preserving baryon number ($L=2,~B=0$) in standard model…
In d=2+1 dimensions, there exist field theories which are non-relativistic and superconformal. These theories describe two species of anyons, whose spins differ by 1/2, interacting in a harmonic trap. We compute the dimensions of chiral…
We derive a new class of one-loop non-renormalization theorems that strongly constrain the running of higher dimension operators in a general four-dimensional quantum field theory. Our logic follows from unitarity: cuts of one-loop…
We consider a non-Abelian gauge theory with $N_f$ fermions and discuss the possible existence of a non-trivial UV fixed point at large $N_f$. Specifically, we study the anomalous dimension of the (rescaled) glueball operator $\text{Tr}\…

A new nonperturbative approach is used to investigate the Gross-Neveu model of four fermion interaction in the space-time dimensions 2, 3 and 4, the number $N$ of inner degrees of freedom being a fixed integer. The spontaneous symmetry…
Anomalous fermion number violation is studied in the background of a pure SU(2) gauge field in Minkowski space using the method of N. Christ. It is demonstrated that the chiral fermion number is violated by at most an integer amount. Then…
Scalar-fermion models, such as the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa model, admit natural $1d$ defects given by the exponential of a scalar field integrated along a straight line. In $4-\varepsilon$ dimensions the defect coupling is weakly relevant and…
