Here, we introduce and apply non-Abelian tensor Berry connections to topological phases in multi-band systems. These gauge connections behave as non-Abelian antisymmetric tensor gauge fields in momentum space and naturally generalize…
The arcane ADHM construction of Yang-Mills instantons can be very naturally understood in the framework of D-brane dynamics in string theory. In this point-of-view, the mysterious auxiliary symmetry of the ADHM construction arises as a…
We develop a systematic treatment for the quasi-zero modes, which play an important role in nonabelian gauge theories. It can be used to derive the analytic forms for the constrained instantons in the \ymh theory. This will automatically…
Berry connection has been recently generalized to higher-dimensional QFT, where it can be thought of as a topological term in the effective action for background couplings. Via the inflow, this term corresponds to the boundary anomaly in…

I carefully study noncommutative version of ADHM construction of instantons, which was proposed by Nekrasov and Schwarz. Noncommutative ${\bf R}^4$ is described as algebra of operators acting in Fock space. In ADHM construction of…
We revisit the problem of constructing instantons on ADE orbifolds R^4/\Gamma and point out some subtle relations with the complex structure on the orbifold. We consider generalized instanton equations on R^4/\Gamma which are BPS equations…
Connectivity is a fundamental property of quantum graphs, previously studied in the operator system model for matrix quantum graphs and via graph homomorphisms in the quantum adjacency matrix model. In this paper, we develop an algebraic…
In supersymmetric quantum mechanics, the non-Abelian Berry phase is known to obey certain differential equations. Here we study N=(0,4) systems and show that the non-Abelian Berry connection over R^{4n} satisfies a generalization of the…
We extend the method of matrix partition to obtain explicitly the gauge field for noncommutative ADHM construction in some general cases. As an application of this method we apply it to the U(2) 2-instanton and get explicit result for the…
We study Higgs field configurations of dyonic instantons in spontaneously broken (4+1)-dimensional Yang-Mills theory. The adjoint scalar field solutions to the covariant Laplace equation in the ADHM instanton background are constructed in…
We consider the Hermitian Yang-Mills (instanton) equations for connections on vector bundles over a 2n-dimensional K\"ahler manifold X which is a product Y x Z of p- and q-dimensional Riemannian manifold Y and Z with p+q=2n. We show that in…
We study an extension of the ADHM construction to give deformed anti-self-dual (ASD) instantons in N=1/2 super Yang-Mills theory with U(n) gauge group. First we extend the exterior algebra on superspace to non(anti)commutative superspace…
We propose a pair of the complex Berry curvatures associated with the non-Hermitian Hamiltonian and its Hermitian adjoint to reveal new physics in non-Hermitian systems. We give the complex Berry curvature and Berry phase for the…
Instantons play a crucial role in understanding non-perturbative dynamics in quantum field theories, including those with spontaneously broken gauge symmetries. In the broken phase, finite-size instanton-like configurations are no longer…
Non-Hermitian systems exhibit spectral and topological phenomena absent in Hermitian physics; however, their geometric characterization is hindered by an intrinsic ambiguity rooted in the eigenspace of non-Hermitian Hamiltonians, which…
We study non-invertible global symmetries in 4d quantum field theories, aiming to generalize existing discussions to theories with multiple instantons and axions, and to make the subject more accessible to particle phenomenology. Building…
The Berry connection describes transformations induced by adiabatically varying Hamiltonians. We study how zero modes of the modular Hamiltonian are affected by varying the region that supplies the modular Hamiltonian. In the vacuum of a 2d…
