We investigate the $O(N)$--symmetric $\phi^6$ theory in three spacetime dimensions using dimensional regularisation and minimal subtraction. The predictions of other methods are scrutinised in a large-$N$ expansion. We show how the…

The nonlinear $n$-supersymmetry with holomorphic supercharges is investigated for the 2D system describing the motion of a charged spin-1/2 particle in an external magnetic field. The universal algebraic structure underlying the holomorphic…

The renormalized zero-momentum four-point coupling $g_r$ of $O(N)$-invariant scalar field theories in $d$ dimensions is studied by applying the $1/N$ expansion and strong coupling analysis. The $O(1/N)$ correction to the $\beta$-function…

The functional RG for the random field and random anisotropy O(N) sigma-models is studied to two loop. The ferromagnetic/disordered (F/D) transition fixed point is found to next order in d=4+epsilon for N > N_c (N_c=2.8347408 for random…

Given n general points p_1, p_2,..., p_n \in P^r, it is natural to ask whether there is a curve of given degree d and genus g passing through them; by counting dimensions a natural conjecture is that such a curve exists if and only if \[n…

Three-dimensional N-extended superconformal symmetry is studied within the superspace formalism. A superconformal Killing equation is derived and its solutions are classified in terms of supertranslations, dilations, Lorentz…

We study large charge sectors in the $O(N)$ model in $6-\epsilon $ dimensions. For $4<d<6$, in perturbation theory, the quartic $O(N)$ theory has a UV stable fixed point at large $N$. It was recently argued that this fixed point can be…

We present a closed form expression for the semiclassical OPE coefficients that are universal for all 2D CFTs with a "weak" light spectrum, by taking the semiclassical limit of the fusion kernel. We match this with a properly regularized…

The Lagrangian formalism for the N=2 supersymmetric sinh-Gordon model with a jump defect is considered. The modified conserved momentum and energy are constructed in terms of border functions. The supersymmetric Backlund transformation is…

A hybrid of the critical three dimensional Gross-Neveu and Thirring models deformed by explicit parity breaking operators is studied in the large N expansion and using the renormalization group. The regime of coupling constants where the…

Nonlinear sigma models appear in a wide variety of physics contexts, such as the long-range order with spontaneously broken continuous global symmetries. There are also large classes of quantum criticality admit sigma model descriptions in…

We conjecture that the $O(N)$-symmetric non-linear sigma model in the semi-infinite $(1+1)$-dimensional space is ``integrable'' with respect to the ``free'' and the ``fixed'' boundary conditions. We then derive, for both cases, the boundary…

We probe the effect of diffeomorphism symmetry on the critical exponents values for massive O($N$) $\lambda\phi^{4}$ scalar field theories in curved spacetime. We apply field-theoretic renormalization group tools, where we use only momentum…

We explore a new approach to boundaries and interfaces in the $O(N)$ model where we add certain localized cubic interactions. These operators are nearly marginal when the bulk dimension is $4-\epsilon$, and they explicitly break the $O(N)$…

We show that given an initial vorticity which is bounded and $m$-fold rotationally symmetric for $m \ge 3$, there is a unique global solution to the 2D Euler equation on the whole plane. That is, in the well-known $L^1 \cap L^\infty$ theory…

The renormalization group transformation for the hierarchical O(N) spin model in four dimensions is studied by means of characteristic functions of single-site measures, and convergence of the critical trajectory to the Gaussian fixed point…

We study boundary criticality at the Nishimori multicritical point of the two-dimensional (2D) random-bond Ising model. Using tensor-network methods, we construct a family of microscopic boundary conditions that incorporates both…

We examine some six-dimensional orientifold models with $N = 1$ supersymmetry, which can be realised as intersecting 7-branes and 7-planes. These models are studied in the light of recent work showing that orientifold planes carry anomalous…

We prove exponential decay of transverse correlations in the Spin O(N) model for arbitrary (non-zero) values of the external magnetic field and arbitrary spin dimension N > 1. Our result is new when N > 3, in which case no Lee-Yang theorem…

In this paper, we deal with a class of semilinear elliptic equation in a bounded domain $\Omega\subset\mathbb{R}^N$, $N\geq 3$, with $C\sp{1,1}$ boundary. Using a new fixed point result of the Krasnoselskii's type for the sum of two…
