Exploiting the gauging procedure developed by us in hep-th/0605211, we study the relationships between the models of N=4 mechanics based on the off-shell multiplets (4,4,0) and (1,4,3). We make use of the off-shell N=4, d=1 harmonic…
We incorporate spin-orbit coupling (SOC) into effective Kugel-Khomskii models for the $n=1$ and $n=2$ members of the Ruddlesden-Popper series Sr$_{n+1}$Cr$_n$O$_{3n+1}$. These model contain interacting spins 1 and pseudospins 1/2 at each…
The enhancement of the spin-space symmetry from the usual $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ to $\mathrm{SU}(N)$ with $N>2$ is promising for finding nontrivial quantum spin liquids, but the realization of $\mathrm{SU}(N)$ spin systems in real materials is…
We give a detailed Operator Product Expansion interpretation of the results for conformal 4-point functions computed from supergravity through the AdS/CFT duality. We show that for an arbitrary scalar exchange in AdS(d+1) all the…
We present numerically exact results from sign-problem free quantum Monte Carlo simulations for a spin-fermion model near an $O(3)$ symmetric antiferromagnetic (AFM) quantum critical point. We find a hierarchy of energy scales that emerges…
We generalize the $\eta$-pairing theory in Hubbard models to the ones with spin-orbit coupling (SOC) and obtain the conditions under which the $\eta$-pairing operator is an eigenoperator of the Hamiltonian. The $\eta$ pairing thus reveals…
We show how a Heisenberg spin chain emerges from the two-dimensional ${\mathcal N}$=(2,2) gauge theory at an intermediate scale, which relies on the renormalization group flow guided by the global symmetries and the dynamics of domain…
Using a nonperturbative approach based on the Cornwall-Jackiw-Tomboulis effective action $\Gamma(S)$ for composite operators ($S$ is the full fermion propagator), the phase structure of the simplest massless (2 + 1)-dimensional Gross-Neveu…
We explore a spin-fermion model with fermion-spin-quadrupolar interaction. In a nematic phase, this interaction reduces to a four-fermion interaction that is a basis of superconductivity. When the coupling constant is positive the…
We reconsider the strong-coupling expansion for the Hubbard model recently introduced by Sarker and Pairault {\it et al.} By introducing slave particles that act as projection operators onto the empty, singly occupied and doubly occupied…
The nematic state of the iron-based superconductors is studied in the undoped limit of the three-orbital ($xz$, $yz$, $xy$) spin-fermion model via the introduction of lattice degrees of freedom. Monte Carlo simulations show that in order to…
A self-consistent, spin rotational invariant Green's function procedure has been developed to calculate the spectral function of carrier excitations in the spin-fermion model for the CuO2 plane. We start from the mean field description of a…
We propose a new approach towards analytically solving for the dynamical content of Conformal Field Theories (CFTs) using the bootstrap philosophy. This combines the original bootstrap idea of Polyakov with the modern technology of the…
An unconventional superconducting phase is explored developing out of a non Fermi-liquid phase of the two-channel Anderson lattice model. It is characterized by a composite order parameter comprising of a local spin or orbital degree of…
We study the magnetic phase diagram of spin-3/2 fermions in a spatially anisotropic square optical lattice at quarter filling (corresponding to one particle per lattice site). In the limit of the large on-site repulsion the system can be…
Consistency with position space OPE limit requires momentum space CFT correlators to have only total energy singularity. We show that this requirement gives a simple proof of the known result that the parity-odd structure cannot exist for…
We employ the intertwining operator technique to synthesize a supersymmetric (SUSY) array of arbitrary size $N$. The synthesized SUSY system is equivalent to a spin-$(N-1)/2$ under an effective magnetic field. By considering an additional…
Chern-Simons gauge theories coupled to massless fundamental scalars or fermions define interesting non-supersymmetric 3d CFTs that possess approximate higher-spin symmetries at large N. In this paper, we compute the scaling dimensions of…
