We derive the bosonization rules for free fermions on a half-line with physically sensible boundary conditions for Luttinger fermions. We use path-integral methods to calculate the bosonized fermionic currents on the half-line and derive…
We consider Carrollian conformal field theories in two dimensions and construct the boundary Carrollian conformal algebra (BCCA), opening up innumerable possibilities for further studies, given the growing relevance of Carrollian…
We explore some aspects of holographic dual of Boundary Conformal Field Theory (BCFT). In particular we study asymptotic symmetry of geometries which provide holographic dual of BCFTs. We also compute two-point functions of certain bosonic…
We consider a toroidal configuration of cosmic string in 3+1 dimensions in an abelian Higgs model, a compactification of the Nielsen-Olesen string. This object is classically unstable. We explicitly compute the number of permitted zero…
Boundary conditions for Majorana fermions in d=1+1 dimensions fall into one of two SPT phases, associated to a mod 2 anomaly. Here we consider boundary conditions for 2N Majorana fermions that preserve a $U(1)^N$ symmetry. In general, the…
The interpretation of D-branes in terms of open strings has lead to much interest in boundary conditions of two-dimensional conformal field theories (CFTs). These studies have deepened our understanding of CFT and allowed us to develop new…
For fermionic fields on a compact Riemannian manifold with boundary one has a choice between local and non-local (spectral) boundary conditions. The one-loop prefactor in the Hartle-Hawking amplitude in quantum cosmology can then be studied…
Here we write down and prove closed commutation rules for Fermi bilinears in a two-component Fermi system in terms of the relevant sea-bosons. We show how the commutation rules come out correctly within the RPA-approximation as do the zero…
In (1+1)D topological phases, unpaired Majorana zero modes (MZMs) can arise only if the internal symmetry group $G_f$ of the ground state splits as $G_f = G_b \times \mathbb{Z}_2^f$, where $\mathbb{Z}_2^f$ is generated by fermion parity,…
We examine the correlations between divergences in ground state entanglement entropy and emergent zero-modes of the underlying Hamiltonian in the context of one-dimensional Bosonic and Fermionic chains. Starting with a pair of coupled…
Composite structure of particles somewhat modifies their statistics, compared to the pure Bose- or Fermi-ones. The spin-statistics theorem, so, is not valid anymore. Say, $\pi$-mesons, excitons, Cooper pairs are not ideal bosons, and,…
Some fractional quantum Hall states observed in experiments may be described by first-quantized wavefunctions with special clustering properties like the Moore-Read Pfaffian for filling factor nu = 5/2. This wavefunction has been…
In this article we establish the relationship between fermionic T-duality and momenta noncommuativity. This is extension of known relation between bosonic T-duality and coordinate noncommutativity. The case of open string propagating in…
Conformal field theory (CFT) has become an active area of research beyond its origins in statistical physics and attracted much attention due to its intrinsic mathematical interest, which reveals deep connections with other diverse branches…
Our main aim in this thesis is to address the results and prospects of boundary logarithmic conformal field theories: theories with boundaries that contain the above Jordan cell structure. We have investigated c_{p,q} boundary theory in…
We consider two-dimensional electron systems in zero magnetic field at fractional filling. For such systems a Lieb-Schultz-Mattis theorem applies, forbidding the existence of a trivial insulator. However, the theorem does not distinguish…
We study the quantum dynamics of conversion of composite bosons into fermionic fragment species with increasing densities of bound fermion pairs using the open quantum system approach. The Hilbert space of $N$-state-function is decomposed…
We investigate the set of boundary states in the symplectic fermion description of the logarithmic conformal field theory with central charge c=-2. We show that the thus constructed states correspond exactly to those derived under the…
The quantum-mechanical problem of constructing a self-adjoint Hamiltonian for the Dirac equation in an Aharonov--Bohm field in 2+1 dimensions is solved with taking into account the fermion spin. The one-parameter family of self-adjoint…
The formation of bound states of holes in an antiferromagnetic spin-1/2 background is studied using numerical techniques applied to the ${\rm t-J}$ Hamiltonian on clusters with up to 26 sites. An analysis of the binding energy as a function…
