We determine the form of the Wigner functional for several types of quantum free field theories in order to analyze the representation of QFT in phase space, as well as to compare it to other mainstream formulations. We use Jackiw's…
The nearest-neighbor quantum-antiferromagnetic (AF) Heisenberg model for spin 1/2 on a two-dimensional square lattice is studied in the auxiliary-fermion representation. Expressing spin operators by canonical fermionic particles requires a…
It has been recently proposed that string theory in the background of a plane wave corresponds to a certain subsector of the N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. This correspondence follows as a limit of the AdS/CFT duality. As a…
We study correlations in a bipartite, Fermionic, free state in terms of perturbations induced by one party on the other. In particular, we show that all so conditioned free states can be modelled by an auxiliary Fermionic system and a…
A modified interaction representation for the master field describing connected $SU(N)$-invariant Wightman's functions in the large $N$ limit of matrix fields is constructed. This construction is based on the representation of the master…
A new deterministic, numerical method to solve fermion field theories is presented. This approach is based on finding solutions $Z[J]$ to the lattice functional equations for field theories in the presence of an external source $J$. Using…
This paper provides an extension of the constructive loop vertex expansion to stable matrix models with interactions of arbitrarily high order. We introduce a new representation for such models, then perform a forest expansion on this…
We consider a model of weakly interacting, close-packed, dimers on the two-dimensional square lattice. In a previous paper, we computed both the multipoint dimer correlations, which display non-trivial critical exponents, continuously…
Ratios of the true Yang-Mills vacuum wavefunctional, evaluated on any two field configurations out of a finite set of configurations, can be obtained from lattice Monte Carlo simulations. The method was applied some years ago to test…
Recently developed methods for PT-symmetric models can be applied to quantum-mechanical matrix and vector models. In matrix models, the calculation of all singlet wave functions can be reduced to the solution a one-dimensional PT-symmetric…
Motivated by ongoing interest in the universal behaviour of the Hubbard model of spinning electrons on honeycomb and $\pi$-flux lattices at the semi-metal -- Mott insulator phase transition, we formulate the \threeD~chiral Heisenberg model,…
Topological phases of matter remain a focus of interest due to their unique properties -- fractionalisation, ground state degeneracy, and exotic excitations. While some of these properties can occur in systems of free fermions, their…
We develop a general theory of a boson decomposition for both local and non-local interactions in lattice fermion models which allows us to describe fermionic degrees of freedom and collective charge and spin excitations on equal footing.…
We combine density-functional theory with density-matrix functional theory to get the best of both worlds. This is achieved by range separation of the electronic interaction which permits to rigorously combine a short-range density…
Quantum many-body systems realise many different phases of matter characterised by their exotic emergent phenomena. While some simple versions of these properties can occur in systems of free fermions, their occurrence generally implies…
We consider a simple (1+1)-dimensional model for the Casimir-Polder interaction consisting of two oscillators coupled to a scalar field. We include dissipation in a first principles approach by allowing the oscillators to interact with heat…
The interaction between a two-level atom and the finite two-dimensional oscillator in the Cartesian coordinate system is addressed. The construction of the coupling between the degenerate energy states of the finite oscillator and the two…
We argue that a simple qubit-regularized $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ lattice gauge theory (LGT) on a plaquette chain serves as a pseudo-one-dimensional toy model for Yang-Mills (YM) theory in three spatial dimensions. We map the chain Hamiltonian to…
These lectures give an introduction to the novel duality relating type IIB string theory in a maximally supersymmetric plane-wave background to N=4, d=4, U(N) Super Yang-Mills theory in a particular large N and large R-charge limit due to…
We consider two dimensional U(N) QCD on the cylinder with a timelike Wilson line in an arbitrary representation. We show that the theory is equivalent to N fermions with internal degrees of freedom which interact among themselves with a…
