While the supergravity limit of AdS/CFT has been extensively explored, the regime in which stringy dynamics dominate, characterized by the emergence of an infinite tower of higher-spin massive modes, is far less understood. In this work, we…

Motivated by recent progress on non-Hermitian topological band theories, we study the energy spectrum of a generic two-band non-Hermitian Hamiltonian. We prove rigorously that the complex energy spectrum of such a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian…

We study the asymptotic behaviour of eigenvalues and eigenfunctions of 2D vibrating systems with mass density perturbed in a vicinity of closed curves. The threshold case in which resonance frequencies of the membrane and thin inclusion…

We propose gauging matrix models of string theory to eliminate unwanted non-singlet states. To this end we perform a discretised light-cone quantisation of large N gauge theory in 1+1 dimensions, with scalar or fermionic matter fields…

Understanding flux string dynamics can provide insight into quark confinement and hadronization. First-principles quantum and numerical simulations have mostly focused on toy-model Abelian lattice gauge theories (LGTs). With the advent of…

We compute tree level scattering amplitudes involving more than one highly excited states and tachyons in bosonic string theory. We use these amplitudes to understand chaotic and thermal aspects of the excited string states lending support…

We revisit the formulation of non-relativistic (NR) string theory and its target space geometry. We obtain a new formulation in which the geometry contains a two-form field that couples to the tension current and that transforms under…

The existence of topological zero modes in nontrivial phase of quantum Ising chain results in not only the Kramers-like degeneracy spectrum, but also dynamic response for non-Hermitian perturbation in the ordered phase (2021 Phys. Rev.…

We in this paper study the hermiticity of Hamiltonian and energy spectrum for the SU(1; 1) systems. The Hermitian Hamiltonian can possess imaginary eigenvalues in contrast with the common belief that hermiticity is a suffcient condition for…

We exhibit a nonperturbative background independent dynamical truncation of the string spectrum and a quantization of the string coupling constant directly from the Hamiltonian governing the dynamics of strings constructed from Yang-Mills…

The string-net model describes a vast family of topological orders in two spatial dimensions. Here, we consider the effect of thermal fluctuations on these topological phases. In the original string-net model, the description of charge…

We continue the study of non-Abelian vortex string in 4D $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric QCD as critical superstring, and extend this analysis to $U(N)$ gauge theory with arbitrary even $N$ and $N_f=2N$ number of quarks. We introduce a…

We construct a family of self-adjoint operators on the prime numbers whose entries depend on pairwise arithmetic divergences, replacing geometric distance with number-theoretic dissimilarity. The resulting spectra encode how coherence…

A careful treatment of closed string BRST cohomology shows that there are more discrete states and associated symmetries in $D=2$ string theory than has been recognized hitherto. The full structure, at the $SU(2)$ radius, has a natural…

Classical lattice simulations of the Abelian Higgs model are used to investigate small scale structure and loop distributions in cosmic string networks. Use of the field theory ensures that the small-scale physics is captured correctly. The…

We present a major update on the spectrum of closed flux tubes in $D=3+1$ $SU(N)$ gauge theories. We measure the excitation spectrum of confining strings wound around a spatial dimension of a size $R$. We do so for the $SU(N)$ Yang-Mills…

We analyze the fixed-angle high-energy ($\alpha' \to \infty$) structure of $n$-point tree-level string amplitudes from complementary perspectives: locally via saddle-point expansions, algebraically via difference equations and their…

We perform numerical simulations of particle acceleration in relativistic, self-driven turbulent magnetic reconnection using the MHD-PIC method. We systematically investigate the dependence of the non-thermal particle spectral exponent on…

The two-dimensional model which emerges from low-energy considerations of string theory is written down. Solutions of this classical model are noted, including some examples which have nontrivial tachyon field. One such represents the…

Eigenvalues and eigenvectors of non-Hermitian tridiagonal periodic random matrices are studied by means of the Hatano-Nelson deformation. The deformed spectrum is annular-shaped, with inner radius measured by the complex Thouless formula.…
