A few years ago, some of us devised a method to obtain integrable systems in (2+1)-dimensions from the classical non-Abelian pure Chern-Simons action via reduction of the gauge connection in Hermitian symmetric spaces. In this paper we show…
We study surface defects in three-dimensional topological quantum field theories which separate different theories of Reshetikhin-Turaev type. Based on the new notion of a Frobenius algebra over two commutative Frobenius algebras, we…
We introduce a new regularization of the rotational Navier-Stokes equations that we call the Rotational Approximate Deconvolution Model (RADM). We generalize the deconvolution type model, studied by Berselli and Lewandowski [5], to the RADM…
A recent trend in Non-Rigid Structure-from-Motion (NRSfM) is to express local, differential constraints between pairs of images, from which the surface normal at any point can be obtained by solving a system of polynomial equations. The…
This paper introduces a novel method for the efficient second-order accurate computation of normal fields from volume fractions on unstructured polyhedral meshes. Locally, i.e. in each mesh cell, an averaged normal is reconstructed by…
The Jackiw-Teitelboim model written as a BF theory in two dimensions is analyzed by using the Dirac's and Faddeev-Jackiw formalism. The analysis consists in finding the full structure of the constraints, the gauge transformations, the…
A brane construction of an integrable lattice model is proposed. The model is composed of Belavin's R-matrix, Felder's dynamical R-matrix, the Bazhanov-Sergeev-Derkachov-Spiridonov R-operator and some intertwining operators. This…
Using the F-theory realization, we identify a subclass of 6d (1,0) SCFTs whose compactification on a Riemann surface leads to N = 1 4d SCFTs where the moduli space of the Riemann surface is part of the moduli space of the theory. In…
The four-dimensional Chern-Simons (CS) theory provides a systematic procedure for realizing two-dimensional integrable field theories. It is therefore a natural question to ask whether integrable deformations of the theories can be realized…
The goal of this note is to give a brief overview of the BV-BFV formalism developed by the first two authors and Reshetikhin in [arXiv:1201.0290], [arXiv:1507.01221] in order to perform perturbative quantisation of Lagrangian field theories…
We present a general construction of integrable degenerate $\mathcal E$-models on a 2d manifold $\Sigma$ using the formalism of Costello and Yamazaki based on 4d Chern-Simons theory on $\Sigma \times \mathbb{C}P^1$. We begin with a…
We derive non-abelian Toda field theories (NATFTs) from a 4d Chern-Simons (CS) theory with two order defects by employing a certain asymptotic boundary condition. The 4d CS theory is characterized by a meromorphic 1-form $\omega$\,. We…
The conformal affine sl(2) Toda model coupled to matter field is treated as a constrained system in the context of Faddeev-Jackiw and the (constrained) symplectic schemes. We recover from this theory either, the sine-Gordon or the massive…
The linear Reissner-Mindlin shell theory is reformulated in the frame of the tangential differential calculus (TDC) using a global Cartesian coordinate system. The rotation of the normal vector is modelled with a difference vector approach.…
We study a symmetry-reduced sector of $AdS_3/\mathbb Z_2$ gravity formulated as an $SO(2,2)$ Chern--Simons theory on a 3D-manifold with toroidal boundary. The reduction is implemented by requiring a globally defined symmetry and restricting…
We consider the Chern-Simons theory with Wilson lines in 3D and in 1D in the BV-BFV formalism of Cattaneo-Mnev-Reshetikhin. In particular, we allow for Wilson lines to end on the boundary of the space-time manifold. In the toy model of 1D…
We analyze topological boundary conditions and topological surface defects in three-dimensional topological field theories of Reshetikhin-Turaev type based on arbitrary modular tensor categories. Boundary conditions are described by central…
We establish the large deviation principle for solutions of one-dimensional SDEs with discontinuous coefficients. The main statement is formulated in a form similar to the classical Wentzel--Freidlin theorem, but under the considerably…
Fracton order is an intriguing new type of order which shares many common features with topological order, such as topology-dependent ground state degeneracies, and excitations with mutual statistics. However, it also has several…
Reshetikhin-Turaev (a.k.a. Chern-Simons) TQFT is a functor that associates vector spaces to two-dimensional genus g surfaces and linear operators to automorphisms of surfaces. The purpose of this paper is to demonstrate that there exists a…
