We study in this paper the properties of a gas of fermions interacting {\em via} a scalar potential $v(q)=4\pi{e}^2/q^2$ for $q<\Lambda<<k_F$ at dimensions larger than one, where $\Lambda$ is a high momentum cutoff and $k_F$ is the fermi…

We show that quantum systems of extended objects naturally give rise to a large class of exotic phases - namely topological phases. These phases occur when the extended objects, called ``string-nets'', become highly fluctuating and…
We introduce a simple scenario where, by starting with a five-dimensional SU(3) gauge theory, we end up with several 4-D parallel branes with localized fermions and gauge fields. Similar to the split fermion scenario, the confinement of…
