We investigate the fate of the Standard Model (SM) $\mathbb Z_6^{(1)}$ electric $1$-form global symmetry in the background of gravitational instantons, focusing on Eguchi-Hanson (EH) geometries. We show that EH instantons support quantized…
We derive the non-perturbative corrections to the free energy of the two-matrix model in terms of its algebraic curve. The eigenvalue instantons are associated with the vanishing cycles of the curve. For the (p,q) critical points our…

We study a three-dimensional abelian lattice model in which the analogue of a theta term can be defined. This term is defined by introducing a neutral scalar field and its effect is to couple magnetic monopoles to the scalar field and…
Building a multi-field theory with canonical and non-canonical contributions, one studies the topological solitons of the O(3)-sigma model. We propose a model constituted by the O(3)-sigma field, the cuscuton-like neutral scalar field, and…
We present an analysis about the influence of an external magnetic field on renormalons in a self interacting theory $\lambda \phi ^{4}$. In the weak magnetic field region, using an appropriate expansion for the Schwinger propagator's, we…

The use of entanglement renormalization in the presence of scale invariance is investigated. We explain how to compute an accurate approximation of the critical ground state of a lattice model, and how to evaluate local observables,…
We determine the non-perturbative corrections to the gauge coupling constant and the topological charge in the Yang Mills theory. The method makes no explicit use of instanton calculations but instead relies on boundary properties of the…
In topological field theories determinants of maps with negative as well as positive eigenvalues arise. We give a generalisation of the zeta-regularisation technique to derive expressions for the phase and scaling-dependence of these…
We show that a number of multiple integrals may viewed as tau functions of various integrable hierarchies. The instanton contributions in the two-dimensional O(3)$\ \sigma $ model is an example of such an approach.
The O(3) sigma model in two spatial dimensions admits topological (Bogomol'nyi) lower bound on its energy. This paper proposes a lattice version of this system which maintains the Bogomol'nyi bound and allows the explicit construction of…
We compute the magnetic field-induced modifications to the boson self-coupling and the boson-fermion coupling, in the static limit, using an effective model of QCD, the linear sigma model with quarks. The former is computed for arbitrary…
Making use of ansatzs for the form fields in the 10d type IIA supergravity version of the ABJM model, we come with a solution in the Euclidean signature recognized as a monopole instanton-like object. Indeed we will see that we can have a…
