The purpose of this article is to apply the concept of the spectral triple, the starting point for the analysis of noncommutative spaces in the sense of A.~Connes, to the case where the algebra $\cA$ contains both bosonic and fermionic…
A gauge transformation provided by the three eigenfunctions of $\B^a(x) \cdot \B^b(x)$ (where $\B^a(x)$, with a=1,2,3, are the non-Abelian magnetic fields) exposes the topological configurations of the Yang-Mills fields. In particular, it…
Quadratic Hamiltonians are important in quantum field theory and quantum statistical mechanics. Their general studies, which go back to the sixties, are relatively incomplete for the fermionic case studied here. Following Berezin, they are…

The coupling of spin 0 and spin 1 external fields to Dirac fermions defines a theory which displays gauge chiral symmetry. Quantum mechanically, functional integration of the fermions yields the determinant of the Dirac operator, known as…
The compactification on a torus in $SU(\infty)$ Yang-Mills theory is considered. A special form of the configuration of a gauge field on a torus is examined. The vacuum energy and free energy in the presence of fermions coupled with this…

Motivated by Abelian dominance, we suppose that the field strength tensor in the low energy limit of the SU(2) Yang-Mills theory is $ G_{\mu\nu}=G_{\mu\nu} n $, where $ G_{\mu\nu} $ is a space-time tensor and $ n $ is a unit vector field…
In this paper we provide a method to study critical points of strongly indefinite functionals on vector bundles. We focus mainly on energy functionals coupled with a fermionic part, that is with a Dirac-type operator. We consider the cases…
