In recent literature one-loop tests of the higher-spin AdS$_{d+1}$/CFT$_d$ correspondences were carried out. Here we extend these results to a more general set of theories in $d>2$. First, we consider the Type B higher spin theories, which…
We conjecture that the free-fermion part of the eigenspectrum observed recently for the $SU_q(N)$ Perk-Schultz spin chain Hamiltonian in a finite lattice with $q=\exp (i\pi (N-1)/N)$ is a consequence of the existence of a special simple…
We study three dimensional O(N)_k and U(N)_k Chern-Simons theories coupled to a scalar field in the fundamental representation, in the large N limit. For infinite k this is just the singlet sector of the O(N) (U(N)) vector model, which is…
We study the positivity properties of the leading Regge trajectory in higher-dimensional, unitary, conformal field theories (CFTs). These conditions correspond to higher spin generalizations of the averaged null energy condition (ANEC). By…
The operator product expansion of massless celestial primary operators of arbitrary spin is investigated. Poincar\'e symmetry is found to imply a set of recursion relations on the operator product expansion coefficients of the leading…
We study two dimensional systems with extended conformal symmetry generated by the ${\mathcal W}_3$ algebra. These are expected to have an infinite number of commuting conserved charges, which we refer to as the quantum Boussinesq charges.…
We study the $SU(2)_k/U(1)$-parafermion model perturbed by its first thermal operator. By formulating the theory in terms of a (perturbed) fermionic coset model we show that the model is equivalent to interacting WZW fields modulo free…
The study of SU(N) quantum spin models is relevant to a variety of physical systems including ultracold atoms in optical lattices, and also leads to insights into novel quantum phases and phase transitions of SU(2) spin models. We use…
The linearized massless wave equation in four-dimensional asymptotically flat spacetimes is known to admit two families of solutions that transform in highest-weight representations of the Lorentz group ${\rm SL}(2, \mathbb{C})$. The two…
We present an SU(2) gauge theory of fluctuating stripe order in the two-dimensional Hubbard model. The theory is based on a fractionalization of the electron operators in fermionic chargons with a pseudospin degree of freedom, and charge…
We consider $\mathcal{N=1}$ superconformal field theories in three-dimensions possessing a conserved current multiplet $\mathcal{F}_{ (\alpha_{1} \alpha_{2} \alpha_{3} \alpha_{4}) }$ which we refer to as the superspin-2 current multiplet.…
We generalize the construction of time-reversal symmetry-breaking triple-component semimetals, transforming under the pseudospin-1 representation, to arbitrary (anti-)monopole charge $2 n$, with $n=1,2,3$ in the crystalline environment. The…
In all known fermionic superfluids, Cooper pairs are composed of spin-1/2 quasi-particles that pair to form either spin-singlet or spin-triplet bound states. The "spin" of a Bloch electron, however, is fixed by the symmetries of the crystal…
Extended supersymmetric sigma-model is given, standing on the SO(2N+1) Lie algebra of fermion operators composed of annihilation-creation operators and pair operators. Canonical transformation, the extension of the SO(2N) Bogoliubov…
From the recently known ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric linear $W_{\infty}^{K,K}[\lambda]$ algebra where $K$ is the dimension of fundamental (or antifundamental) representation of bifundamental $\beta \, \gamma$ and $b \, c$ ghost system, we…
The interplay between superconductivity, spin-orbit coupling, and Zeeman or exchange field, is studied theoretically in two different setups: a single wire in which all these fields coexist, and a double wire system in which superconducting…
We study a quantum phase transition of electrons on a two-dimensional square lattice. Our lattice model preserves the full $\mathrm{O}(4)$ symmetry of free spin-$\frac{1}{2}$ Dirac fermions on a bipartite lattice. In particular, it not only…
We verify, both perturbatively and nonperturbatively asymptotically in the ultraviolet (UV), a special case of a low-energy theorem of the NSVZ type in QCD-like theories, recently derived in arXiv:1701.07833, that relates the logarithmic…
We present a collection of numerical bootstrap computations for 3d CFTs with a U(1) global symmetry. We test the accuracy of our method and fix conventions through a computation of bounds on the OPE coefficients for low-lying operators in…
We prove versions of super spin-charge separation for all three of the symmetry groups SU(N), Sp(2N), and SO(N) of disordered Dirac fermions in 2+1 dimensions, which involve the supercurrent-algebras gl (1|1)_{N}, osp(2|2)_{-2N}, and…
