We present a numerical study of the spectrum of an asymptotically non-free $SU(2)$ gauge theory with $N_f=24$ massive fermion flavors. For such large number of flavors, asymptotic freedom is lost and the massless theory is governed by a…
Recent work has used a U(1) gauge theory to describe the physics of Fermi pockets in the presence of fluctuating spin density wave order. We generalize this theory to an arbitrary band structure and ordering wavevector. The transition to…
We derive the quantum Boltzmann equation (QBE) of composite fermions at/near the $\nu = 1/2$ state using the non-equilibrium Green's function technique. The lowest order perturbative correction to the self-energy due to the strong gauge…
We investigate many-body phase diagrams of atomic boson-fermion mixtures loaded in the two-dimensional optical lattice. Bosons mediate an attractive, finite-range interaction between fermions, leading to fermion pairing phases of different…
We study the spectrum of fermions hopping on a chain with a weak incommensuration close to dimerization; both q, the deviation of the wave number from pi, and delta, the strength of the incommensuration, are small. For free fermions, we use…
It can be shown in a solvable field theory model that the couplings of the composite vector bosons made of a fermion pair approach the gauge couplings in the limit of strong binding. Although this phenomenon may appear accidental and…
The Gauge Technique has been applied to QED$_{2+1}$ in the quenched case with infrared subtraction. The behaviour of the fermion propagator near the threshold is then found to be \[ S(p)\to \frac{(\gamma \cdot…
We present two 2D lattice models with non-Fermi liquid metallic phases. We show that the low energy physics of these models is exactly described by a Fermi sea of fractionalized quasiparticles coupled to a fluctuating U(1) gauge field. In…
The renormalization group flows of the coupling constants for the gauged U(N) vector model, with N_f massless fermions in the defining representation, are studied in the large N limit, to all orders in the scalar coupling lambda, leading…
We point out that the dynamical fermion mass generation in the 3D compact U(1) lattice gauge theory with charged fermion and scalar fields (chi-U-phi_3 model) may be of relevance for the spinon-holon theory with local gauge symmetry in the…
We use Wegner's flow equation method to investigate the infinite-$U$ periodic Anderson model. We show that this method poses a new approach to the description of heavy fermion behaviour. Within this scheme we derive an effective Hamiltonian…
Starting from the $CP^{N-1}$ model description of the thermally disordred phase of the $D=2$ quantum antiferromagnet, we examine the interaction of the Schwinger-boson spin-1/2 mean-field excitations with the generated gauge (chirality)…
Using a Fermi-Bose mixture of ultra-cold atoms in an optical lattice, we construct a quantum simulator for a U(1) gauge theory coupled to fermionic matter. The construction is based on quantum links which realize continuous gauge symmetry…

We study a mixture of one-dimensional bosons and spinless fermions at incommensurate filling using phenomenological bosonization and Green's functions techniques. We derive the relation between the parameters of the microscopic Hamiltonian…
We analyse phenomenological signatures of Kalb-Ramond-like particles, described by an antisymmetric rank-2 tensor, when coupled to fermionic matter. The latter is modelled by a tensor current coupled directly to the Kalb-Ramond field or by…
We summarize a study of an Abelian gauge theory in 2+1 dimensions, the gauge field being coupled to nonrelativistic Fermions. The Action for the gauge field is a combination of the Maxwell term and a Chern-Simons (CS) term. We study the…
We analyze the causal action principle for a system of relativistic fermions composed of massive Dirac particles and neutrinos. In the continuum limit, we obtain an effective interaction described by a left-handed, massive SU(2) gauge field…
It is assumed that U atoms in $UGe_2$ have a number of $f$ electrons appropriate to give them each a spin $s=1$ as well as one extra itinerant electron which may equally well be on one or other U atom. The dynamical degrees of freedom are…
