We study perfect matchings on the square-hexagon lattice with $1\times n$ periodic edge weights such that the boundary condition is given by either (1) each remaining vertex on the bottom boundary is followed by $(m-1)$ removed vertices;…
We construct topological defects in two-dimensional classical lattice models and quantum chains. The defects satisfy local commutation relations guaranteeing that the partition function is independent of their path. These relations and…
We consider the problem of symmetry decomposition of the entanglement negativity in free fermionic systems. Rather than performing the standard partial transpose, we use the partial time-reversal transformation which naturally encodes the…
Lattice models with non-hermitian, parity and time-reversal ($\mathcal{PT}$) symmetric Hamiltonians, realized most readily in coupled optical systems, have been intensely studied in the past few years. A $\mathcal{PT}$-symmetric dimer…
Quark number susceptibility on the lattice, obtained by merely adding a $\mu N$ term with $\mu$ as the chemical potential and $N$ as the conserved quark number, has a quadratic divergence in the cut-off $a$. We show that such a divergence…
We investigate the existence of spatially localised solutions, in the form of discrete breathers, in general damped and driven nonlinear lattice systems of coupled oscillators. Conditions for the exponential decay of the difference between…
In this paper, we investigate if it occurs a phase transition for a system of classical dimers adsorbed on a 3-4 lattice in the thermodynamic limit. We define four types of bonds (denoted by the dimers activities adsorbed in her, $x$, $y$,…
A way to identify the would-be zero-modes of staggered lattice fermions away from the continuum limit is presented. Our approach also identifies the chiralities of these modes, and their index is seen to be determined by gauge field…
We study a single 2d Dirac fermion at finite density, subject to a quenched random magnetic field. At low energies and sufficiently weak disorder, the theory maps onto an infinite collection of 1d chiral fermions (associated to each point…
We begin a systematic investigation of quench dynamics in higher-dimensional lattice systems considering the case of non-interacting fermions with conserved particle number. We prepare the system in a translational-invariant non-equilibrium…
Lattice regularization of chiral fermions has been a long-standing problem in physics. In this work, we present the density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) simulation of the 3-4-5-0 model of (1+1)D chiral fermions with an anomaly-free…
Introducing a new and universally applicable discretizing technique, I construct a class of local and unitary lattice theories of Weyl neutrinos; this solves a longstanding and allegedly unsolvable problem in quantum field theory. En route,…
A low frequency approximation of the discrete Sommerfeld diffraction problems, involving the scattering of a time harmonic lattice wave incident on square lattice by a discrete Dirichlet or a discrete Neumann half-plane, is investigated. It…
For a systematic study of charge degrees of freedom in lattices with geometric frustration, we consider spinless fermions on the checkerboard lattice with nearest-neighbor hopping $t$ and nearest-neighbor repulsion $V$ at quarter-filling.…
An ansatz for the fermion vacuum functional on a lattice is proposed. It is proved to reproduce correct continuum limit for convergent diagrams of any finite order in smooth external fields, as well as consistent chiral anomalies, and…
We consider a vertex model in d dimensions characterized by lines which run in a preferred direction. We show that this vertex model is soluble if the weights of vertices with intersecting lines are given by a free-fermion condition, and…
We propose a density functional theory of Thomas-Fermi-Dirac-von Weizs\"acker type to describe the response of a single layer of graphene resting on a dielectric substrate to a point charge or a collection of charges some distance away from…
The Full Counting Statistics (FCS) is studied for a one-dimensional system of non-interacting fermions with and without disorder. For two unbiased $L$ site lattices connected at time $t=0$, the charge variance increases as the natural…
The main result of this paper is a Pfaffian formula for the partition function of the dimer model on a graph G embedded in a closed, possibly non-orientable surface S. This formula is suitable for computational purposes, and it is obtained…
This paper is on further development of discrete complex analysis introduced by R. Isaacs, J. Ferrand, R. Duffin, and C. Mercat. We consider a graph lying in the complex plane and having quadrilateral faces. A function on the vertices is…
