To avoid the problems which are connected with the long distance behavior of perturbative gauge theories we present a local construction of the observables which does not involve the adiabatic limit. First we construct the interacting…

A differential operator $T$ satisfies the $L^2$-unique continuation property if every $L^2$-solution of $T$ that vanishes on an open subset vanishes identically. We study the $L^2$-unique continuation property of an operator $T$ acting on a…

We explore the action principle for the holographic $T\bar{T}$-deformation. We develop a scheme in which one can holographically reproduce the action of the Liouville theory deformed by $T\bar{T}$-insertion. This scheme necessitates…

Quantum field theory in zero spatial dimensions has a rich infrared landscape and a universal ultraviolet, inverting the usual Wilsonian paradigm. For holographic theories this implies a rich landscape of asymptotically AdS$_2$ geometries.…

We study a $T^2$ deformation of large $N$ conformal field theories, a higher dimensional generalization of the $T\bar T$ deformation. The deformed partition function satisfies a flow equation of the diffusion type. We solve this equation by…

We study f(R,T) theories of gravity, where T is the trace of the energy-momentum tensor T_{\mu\nu}, with independent metric and affine connection (metric-affine theories). We find that the resulting field equations share a close resemblance…

We consider a general reducible gauge theory deformed by mass or/and interaction terms violating gauge invariance. It is shown that in the Abelian case, by using the Stueckelberg-type procedure, this theory with broken gauge symmetry can be…

We report on a new approach to the calculation of thermodynamic functions for crossing-invariant models solvable by Bethe Ansatz. In the case of the XXZ Heisenberg chain we derive, for arbitrary values of the anysotropy, a single non-linear…

We construct symmetry generators and operators for $J\bar{T}$-deformed conformal field theories by generalizing the framework established for $T\bar{T}$ deformations. Working in the Hamiltonian formalism on the plane, we derive the symmetry…

The $T\bar{T}$ deformation can be formulated as a dynamical change of coordinates. We establish and generalize this relation to curved spaces by coupling the undeformed theory to 2d gravity. For curved space the dynamical change of…

We explore whether one can $T \overline{T}$ deform a collection of theories that are already $T \overline{T}$-deformed. This allows us to define classes of irrelevant deformations that know about subsystems. In some basic cases, we explore…

Physical decomposition of the non-Abelian gauge field has recently solved the two-decade-lasting problem of a meaningful gluon spin. Here we extend this approach to gravity and attack the century-lasting problem of a meaningful…
