The overlap formulation is applied to an anomaly free combination of chiral fermions coupled to U(1) gauge fields on a 2D torus. Evidence is presented that gauge averaging the overlap phases in these models produces correct continuum…
The spectrum of the overlap Dirac operator in the deconfined phase of quenched gauge theory is known to have three parts: exact zeros arising from topology, small nonzero eigenvalues that result in a non-zero chiral condensate, and the…
We investigate a 2-dimensional N=2 supersymmetric model which consists of n chiral superfields with Kahler potential. When we define quantum observables, we are always plagued by operator ordering problem. Among various ways to fix the…
We describe a systematic approach for the evaluation of Witten diagrams for multi-loop scattering amplitudes of a conformally coupled scalar $\phi^4$-theory in Euclidean AdS$_4$, by recasting the Witten diagrams as flat space Feynman…
We study the physical consequences of 't Hooft anomalies in the high-temperature limit of relativistic quantum field theories with $SU(2)$, or more generally $USp(2N)$, global symmetry. The global anomaly afflicting these symmetry groups…

We investigate the leading terms of the spectral action for odd-dimensional Riemannian spin manifolds with the Dirac operator perturbed by a scalar function. We calculate first two Gilkey-de Witt coefficients and make explicit calculations…
Eigenvalues of a Wilson loop operator are gauge invariant and their distribution undergoes a transition at infinite N as the size of the loop is changed. We study this transition using the average characteristic polynomial associated with…

We prove an integral formula for the spectral flow of differentiable loops of unitaries of the form ${\rm Id}+$Schatten. Our formula is in terms of a regularised winding number, expressed in terms of exact differential forms, and we show…
We define $\mathcal N=2$ supersymmetric and gauge-invariant path integral measure in $D=4$, $\mathcal N=2$ SQCD in terms of $\mathcal N=1$ superfields. As a further consequence, we derive the $\mathcal N=2$ version of the chiral anomaly in…
A study of the superconformal covariantization of superdifferential operators defined on $(1|1)$ superspace is presented. It is shown that a superdifferential operator with a particular type of constraint can be covariantized only when it…
Through AGT conjecture, we show how triality observed in \N=2 SU(2) N_f=4 QCD can be interpreted geometrically as the interplay among six of Kummer's twenty-four solutions belonging to one fixed Riemann scheme in the context of…
The parameter space of the Feigin-Fuks representations of the N=4 SU(2)$_k$ superconformal algebras is studied from the viewpoint of the specral flow. The $\eta$ phase of the spectral flow is nicely incorporated through twisted fermions and…
The SU(3)-Casson invariant for integral homology 3-spheres as studied by Boden-Herald possesses a 'spectral flow obstruction' to being an integer valued invariant which depends only on the non-degenerate (perturbed) moduli space of flat…
We present a progress report on the use of normalizing flows for generating gauge field configurations in pure SU(N) gauge theories. We discuss how the singular value decomposition can be used to construct gauge-invariant quantities, which…

The statistics-altering operators present in the limit $q=-1$ of multiparticle SU_q(2)-invariant subspaces parallel the action of such operators which naturally occur in supersymmetric theories. We illustrate this heuristically by…
In this paper a loophole in the SU(2) gauge anomaly is presented. It is shown that using several topological tools a theory can be designed that implements the quantization of a single Weyl doublet anomaly free while keeping the non-abelian…
We consider systems where dynamical variables are the generators of the SU(2) group. A subset of these Hamiltonians is exactly solvable using the Bethe ansatz techniques. We show that Bethe ansatz equations are equivalent to polynomial…
