We study the role of non-abelian anomalies in relativistic fluids. To this end, we compute the local functional that solves the anomaly equations, and obtain analytical expressions for the covariant currents and the Bardeen-Zumino terms. We…
An outstanding problem in the study of possible kaon condensation is the striking discrepancy between the results of chiral perturbation theory and those of the PCAC-plus-current-algebra approach. I discuss here what causes this discrepancy…
We start studying chiral algebras (as defined by A. Beilinson and V. Drinfeld) from the point of view of deformation theory. First, we define the notion of deformation of a chiral algebra on a smooth curve $X$ over a bundle of local…
The properties of the spectrum of the overlap Dirac operator and their relation to random matrix theory are studied. In particular, the predictions from chiral random matrix theory in topologically non-trivial gauge field sectors are…
We compute trace relations governing chiral ring elements of fully $\Omega$-deformed N = 2* gauge theories with SU(N) gauge groups by demanding the regularity of the fundamental qq-character.
The chiral condensate is computed from the mode number of the staggered Dirac operator. This result is compared with those obtained with other approaches, based on the quark mass dependence of the topological susceptibility and of the pion…
We calculate the chiral anomaly in the neighbourhood of the fixed point space M_h which is constructed by the group action of a discrete symmetry h on a compact manifold M. The Feynman diagrams approach for the corresponding supersymmetric…
Given a smooth one parameter deformation of associative topological algebras, we define Getzler's Gauss-Manin connection on both the periodic cyclic homology and cohomology of the corresponding smooth field of algebras and investigate some…
Motivated by the recent work of R. Casals on binary invariants for matrix mutation, we study the matrix congruence relation on quasi-Cartan matrices. We obtain a classification and determine normal forms modulo 4. We also establish their…
It has been shown for low-spin fields that the use of only the self-dual part of the connection as basic variable does not lead to extra conditions or inconsistencies. We study whether this is true for more general chiral action. We…
We discuss some algebraic setting of chiral $SU(N)_{k}$ models in terms of the statistical dimensions of their fields. In particular, the conformal dimensions and the central charge of the chiral $SU(N)_{k}$ models are calculated from their…
Quark-hadron duality and its potential applications are discussed. We focus on theoretical efforts to model duality.
For any congruence subgroup $\Gamma$, we study the vertex operator algebra $\Omega^{ch}(\mathbb H,\Gamma)$ constructed from the $\Gamma$-invariant global sections of the chiral de Rham complex on the upper half plane, which are holomorphic…

We identify a canonical transformation which maps the chiral Gross-Neveu model onto a recently proposed Cooper pair model. Baryon number and axial charge are interchanged. The same physics can be described either as chiral symmetry breaking…
We study the fundamental problem of the calculus of variations with variable order fractional operators. Fractional integrals are considered in the sense of Riemann-Liouville while derivatives are of Caputo type.
We provide a phenomenological analysis of present experimental searches for local parity violation manifested through the Chiral Magnetic Effect. We introduce and discuss the relevant correlation functions used for the measurements. Our…
The structure of N(1535) is discussed in dynamical and symmetry aspects based on chiral symmetry. We find that the N(1535) in chiral unitary model has implicitly some components other than meson-baryon one. We also discuss the N(1535) in…
We construct a chiral theory of gravity in 7 and 8 dimensions, which are equivalent to Einstein-Cartan theory using less variables. In these dimensions, we can construct such higher dimensional chiral gravity because of the existence of…
The complexes of integral forms on the quantum Euclidean group $E_q(2)$ and the quantum plane are defined and their isomorphisms with the corresponding de Rham complexes are established.
