We study finite-temperature N=1 SU(2) super Yang-Mills theory, compactified on a spatial circle of size L with supersymmetric boundary conditions. In the semiclassical small-L regime, a deconfinement transition occurs at T_c <<1/L. The…

We study the O(N) linear sigma model with spontaneous symmetry breaking, using a Hartree-like ansatz with a classical field and variational masses. We go beyond the Hartree approximation by including the two-loop contribution, the sunset…
We study the ratio of the entropy to the total energy in conformal field theories at finite temperature. For the free field realizations of N=4 super Yang-Mills theory in D=4 and the (2,0) tensor multiplet in D=6, the ratio is bounded from…

From a supersymmetry covariant source extension of N=2 SYM we study non-trivial thermodynamical limits thereof. Using an argument by one of us about the solution of the strong CP problem and the uniqueness of the QCD ground state we find…
We compute the leading order perturbative correction to the static potential in ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. We show that the perturbative expansion contains infrared logarithms which, when resummed, become logarithms of…

Recent experimental results: (i) the measurement of the $T \ln T$ specific heat in cuprates and the earlier such results in some heavy fermion compounds, (ii) the measurement of the single-particle scattering rates, (iii) the density…
Heisenberg ladders are investigated using the bond-mean-field theory [M.Azzouz, Phys. Rev. B 48, 6136 (1993)]. The zero inter-ladder coupling energy gap, the uniform spin susceptibility and the nuclear magnetic resonance spin-relaxation…
The phase diagram of large Nc, weakly-coupled N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory on a three-sphere with non-zero chemical potentials is examined. In the zero coupling limit, a transition line in the mu-T plane is found, separating a…

We report recent results and developments from our ongoing lattice studies of $\mathcal N = 4$ supersymmetric Yang--Mills theory. These include a proof that only a single fine-tuning needs to be performed, so long as the moduli space is not…
The critical properties of renormalizable O(N) field models are determined by means of the high order ($\geq 18$) behaviour of convergent linked cluster series on finite temperature lattices. It is shown that those models become weakly…
