We derive a (Wilsonian) effective field theory of QCD at finite density by integrating out the states in the Dirac sea when the chemical potential $\mu\gg\Lambda_{\rm QCD}$. The quark-gluon coupling is effectively (1+1)-dimensional and the…

Interactions of domain walls (DWs) are analyzed with relevance to formation of stationary bubbles (complexes of two DWs) and complexes of many domains in one dimensional systems. I investigate the domain structures in ferromagnets which are…

Mass is commonly regarded as an intrinsic property of matter, but modern physics reveals particle masses to have complex origins, such as the Higgs mechanism in high-energy physics. In crystal lattices such as graphene, relativistic Dirac…

Noncommutative U(N) gauge theories at different N may be often thought of as different sectors of a single theory. For instance, U(1) theory possesses a sequence of vacua labeled by an integer parameter N, and the theory in the vicinity of…
