We investigate the structure of logarithmic modes in critical topologically massive gravity (CTMG) at the chiral point $\mu \ell=1$ from the perspective of analytic continuation and monodromy. Starting from the degeneration of massive and…
We review investigations on defects in systems described by real scalar fields in (D,1) space-time dimensions. We first work in one spatial dimension, with models described by one and two real scalar fields, and in higher dimensions. We…
In jammed packings, it is usually thought that local structure only plays a significant role in specific regimes. The standard deviation of the relative excess coordination, $\sigma_Z/ Z_\mathrm{c}$, decays like $1/\sqrt{d}$, so that local…
Rigidity transitions induced by the formation of system-spanning disordered rigid clusters, like the jamming transition, can be well-described in most physically relevant dimensions by mean-field theories. A dynamical mean-field theory…
Optimization problems often involve vector norms, which has led to extensive research on developing algorithms that can handle objectives beyond the $\ell_p$ norms. Our work introduces the concept of submodular norms, which are a versatile…
In this paper we analyze the renormalization group (RG) flow of field theories with quenched disorder, in which the couplings vary randomly in space. We analyze both classical (Euclidean) disorder and quantum disorder, emphasizing general…
We investigate the effects of quenched disorder on the universal properties of a randomly driven Ising lattice gas. The Hamiltonian fixed point of the pure system becomes unstable in the presence of a quenched local bias, giving rise to a…
We study the renormalization group flow in general quantum field theories with quenched disorder, focusing on random quantum critical points. We show that in disorder-averaged correlation functions the flow mixes local and non-local…
A layered system of charges with logarithmic interaction parallel to the layers and random dipoles in each layer is studied via a variational method and an energy rationale. These methods reproduce the known phase diagram for a single layer…
The main focus of this paper is to study multi-valued linear monotone operators in the contexts of locally convex spaces via the use of their Fitzpatrick and Penot functions. Notions such as maximal monotonicity, uniqueness,…
We study co-dimension two monodromy defects in theories of conformally coupled scalars and free Dirac fermions in arbitrary $d$ dimensions. We characterise this family of conformal defects by computing the one-point functions of the…
We investigate the influence of quenched disorder on the steady states of driven systems of the elastic interface with non-local hydrodynamic interactions. The generalized elastic model (GEM), which has been used to characterize numerous…
Two-dimensional sigma models on superspheres $S^{r-1|2s} \cong OSp(r|2s)/OSp(r - 1|2s)$ are known to flow to weak coupling $g_{\sigma} \to 0$ in the IR when $r - 2s < 2$. Their long-distance properties are described by a free 'Goldstone'…
We perform a comprehensive perturbative study of the operator spectrum in multi-scalar theories with hypercubic global symmetry. This includes working out symmetry representations and their corresponding tensor structures. These structures…
We study black hole linear perturbation theory in a four-dimensional Schwarzschild (anti) de Sitter background. When dealing with a positive cosmological constant, the corresponding spectral problem is solved systematically via the…
The modern approach to $m$-form global symmetries in a $d$-dimensional quantum field theory (QFT) entails specifying dimension $d-m-1$ topological generalized symmetry operators which non-trivially link with $m$-dimensional defect…
New theoretical and numerical analysis of the one-dimensional contact process with quenched disorder are presented. We derive new scaling relations, different from their counterparts in the pure model, which are valid not only at the…
We study a two-dimensional bosonic field theory with a random defect line. The theory has a background field coupled to the field variables at the defect line, which renders the model non-integrable. However, as the background field is…
Logarithmic perturbation theory (LPT) is developed and applied to quasinormal modes (QNMs) in open systems. QNMs often do not form a complete set, so LPT is especially convenient because summation over a complete set of unperturbed states…
We incorporate the microscopic assumptions that lead to a certain generalization of the Lieb-Schultz-Mattis (LSM) theorem for one-dimensional spin chains into the conformal bootstrap. Our approach accounts for the "LSM anomaly" possessed by…
