We discuss and provide nontrivial evidence for a large class of dualities in three-dimensional field theories with different gauge groups. We match the full partition functions of the dual phases for any value of the couplings to underpin…
We analyse the SU(2)_k WZNW models beyond the integrable representations and in particular the case of SU(2)_0. We find that these are good examples of logarithmic conformal field theories as indecomposable representations are naturally…
In this document we prove higher equations of motion at the level 2 for boundary Liouville Conformal Field Theory. As a corollary we present a new derivation of the Belavin-Polyakov-Zamolodchikov differential equations. Our method of proof…
It is shown that the relativistic invariance plays a key role in the study of integrable systems. Using the relativistically invariant sine-Gordon equation, the Tzitzeica equation, the Toda fields and the second heavenly equation as dual…
We consider a class of two dimensional conformal ${\mathcal N}=2$ supersymmetric $U(1)$ gauge linear sigma models with $N$ fields of charges $+1$ and $N$ fields of charges $-1$, whose Higgs branches are non-compact toric Calabi-Yau…
It is shown that the two dimensional gravity, described either in the conformal gauge (the Liouville theory) or in the light cone gauge, when coupled to matter possesses an infinite number of twisted $N=2$ superconformal symmetries. The…
The massless three dimensional Gross-Neveu-Yukawa (GNY) and Nambu--Jona-Lasinio--Yukawa (NJLY) models at finite temperatures are analyzed within the mean field framework considering all coupling values. When the number of Dirac fermions is…
Conformal blocks of Liouville theory have a Coulomb-gas representation as Dotsenko-Fateev (DF) integrals over the positions of screening charges. For q-deformed Liouville, the conformal blocks on a sphere with an arbitrary number of…
In the Symmetry Topological Field Theories (SymTFT) that describes the exotic models XY-plaquette and XYZ-cube, we construct codim-1 condensation defects by higher gauging with discrete torsion the non-compact symmetry of the bulk. In the…
World-sheet and spacetime supersymmetries that are manifest in some string backgrounds may not be so in their T-duals. Nevertheless, they always remain symmetries of the underlying conformal field theory. In previous work the mechanism by…
We show how to formulate the phenomenon of gaugino condensation in a super-Yang-Mills theory with a field-dependent gauge coupling described with a linear multiplet. We prove the duality equivalence of this approach with the more familiar…
In these notes we study the duality between sigma-models and Toda QFT's. We claim that $\mathfrak{gl}(n|n)$ affine Toda field theory behaves in the strong coupling limit as $\eta-$deformed $\mathbb{CP}(n-1)$ sigma-model plus a free field.
Let $M$ be a Liouville 6-manifold which is the smooth fiber of a Lefschetz fibration on $\mathbb{C}^4$ constructed by suspending a Lefschetz fibration on $\mathbb{C}^3$. We prove that for many examples including stabilizations of Milnor…
We review recent developments (up to January 2004) of the Liouville field theory and its matrix model dual. This review consists of three parts. In part I, we review the bosonic Liouville theory. After briefly reviewing the necessary…
We study the holographic duality between the M x M matrix extension of Vasiliev higher spin theories on AdS3 and the large N limit of SU(N+M)/SU(N) x U(1) type cosets. We present a simplified proof for the agreement of the spectra and…
Exact field theory dualities can be implemented by duality domain walls such that passing any operator through the interface maps it to the dual operator. This paper describes the S-duality wall of four-dimensional ${\cal N}=2$ SU(N) SQCD…
We study two cases of interrelations between enhancement of symmetries in the infra red (IR) and duality properties of supersymmetric quantum field theories in four dimensions. First we discuss an SU(2) N=1 model with four flavors, singlet…
We study the $SU(2)_k$ Wess-Zumino-Novikov-Witten (WZNW) theory perturbed by the trace of the primary field in the adjoint representation, a theory governing the low-energy behaviour of a class of strongly correlated electronic systems.…
Some mathematical questions relating to Coset Conformal Field Theories (CFT) are considered in the framework of Algebraic Quantum Field Theory as developed previously by us. We consider the issue of fixed point resolution in the diagonal…
We point out that there is a generalization to higher dimensions $d=2h>2$ of the two-dimensional Dotsenko-Fateev formula \DF\ for particular Coulomb gas conformal invariant integrals. These expressions represent structure constants of…
