Motivated by Haldane's exclusion statistics, we construct creation and annihilation operators for $g$-ons using a bosonic algebra. We find that $g$-ons appear due to the breaking of a descrete symmetry of the original bosonic system. This…
The present approach relies on the SM chiral symmetry breaking pattern $SU(2)_L\otimes SU(2)_R\to SU(2)_{L+R}$, with the EW Goldstone bosons given in a non-linear realization and the Higgs boson described by an EW singlet field. In…
It is shown that, in the non-relativistic limit, causal fermion systems give rise to an effective collapse theory. The nonlinear and stochastic correction terms to the Schr\"odinger equation are derived from the causal action principle. The…
We consider the trace anomaly, which results from the integration of the massless conformal fermion field with the background of metric and antisymmetric tensor fields. The non-local terms in the anomaly-induced effective action do not…
We demonstrate the extension to PT-symmetric field theories of the Goldstone theorem, confirming that the spontaneous appearance of a field vacuum expectation value via minimisation of the effective potential in a non-Hermitian model is…
In many interesting systems, the fermion determinant becomes complex and its phase plays a crucial role in the determination of the vacuum. For instance, in finite density QCD at low temperature and high density, exotic fermion condensates…
I investigate bosonization in four dimensions, using the smooth bosonization scheme. I argue that generalized chiral ``phases'' of the fermion field corresponding to chiral phase rotations and ``chiral Poincare transformations'' are the…
The phases with spontaneously broken symmetries corresponding to antiferromagnetic and d-wave superconducting order in the two-dimensional t-t'-Hubbard model are investigated by means of the functional renormalization group. The…
The formation of scalar condensates and dynamical symmetry breaking in the U(n) four-fermion models (for n=2,3) with two coupling constants has been studied by the functional integration method. The bosonization procedures of the models…
We extend our study of deriving the local gauge invariance with spontaneous symmetry breaking in the context of an effective field theory by considering self-interactions of the scalar field and inclusion of the electromagnetic interaction.…
In multiparticle quantum interference, bosons show rather generally the tendency to bunch together, while fermions can not. This behavior, which is rooted in the different statistics of the particles, results in a higher coincidence rate…
The intrinsic structural metastability in cuprate high T$_c$ materials, evidenced in a checker-board domain structure of the CuO$_2$ planes, locally breaks translational and rotational symmetry. Dynamical charge - deformation fluctuations…
In the case of systems composed of identical particles, a typical instance in quantum statistical mechanics, the standard approach to separability and entanglement ought to be reformulated and rephrased in terms of correlations between…
In this paper, we present a new theoretical scenario in which both dynamical Dirac fermions and Einstein's gravity with a positive cosmological constant and torsion emerge via a spontaneous symmetry breaking in a topological phase. This…
Ultracold neutral bosons in a rapidly rotating atomic trap have been predicted to exhibit fractional quantum Hall-like states. We describe how the composite fermion theory, used in the description of the fractional quantum Hall effect for…
We study a spontaneous collapse model for a two-level (spin) system, in which the Hamiltonian and the stochastic terms do not commute. The numerical solution of the equations of motions allows to give precise estimates on the regime at…
Composite fermion (CF) is a topological quasiparticle that emerges from a non-perturbative attachment of vortices to electrons in strongly correlated two-dimensional materials. Similar to non-interacting fermions that form Landau levels in…
Quadratic bosonic Hamiltonians over a one-particle Hilbert space can be described by a Bogoliubov-de Gennes (BdG) Hamiltonian on a particle-hole Hilbert space. In general, the BdG Hamiltonian is not selfadjoint, but only $J$-selfadjoint on…
We consider phase transitions occurring in four-dimensional heterotic orbifold models, when the scale of spontaneous breaking of N=1 supersymmetry is of the order of the string scale. The super-Higgs mechanism is implemented by imposing…
We consider a system of fermions with local interactions on a lattice (Hubbard model) and apply a novel extension of the Laplace's method (saddle-point approximation) for evaluating the corresponding partition function. There, we introduce…
