The long standing problem of a non-perturbative renormalization of a gauge field theoretical Hamiltonian is addressed and explicitly carried out within an (effective) light-cone Hamiltonian approach to QCD. The procedure is in line with the…
A detailed discussion is given of the disorder parameter for dual superconductivity of lattice gauge theories, introduced in a previous paper, and of its relation to other approaches. New lattice data are reported. Among other results, we…
We describe an application of the linear $\de$-expansion to the calculation of correlation functions in SU(2)-Higgs lattice gauge theory. A significant advantage of the technique is that an infinite volume lattice may be used, allowing the…
We use field theoretic renormalization group methods to study the critical behavior of a recently proposed Langevin equation for driven lattice gases under infinitely fast drive. We perform an expansion around the upper critical dimension,…
Lattice gauge theory is an important framework for studying gauge theories that arise in the Standard Model and condensed matter physics. Yet many systems (or regimes of those systems) are difficult to study using conventional techniques,…
Chiral lagrangians describing the interactions of Goldstone bosons in a theory possessing spontaneous symmetry breaking are effective, non-renormalizable field theories in four dimensions. Yet, in a momentum expansion one is able to extract…
In $4$-dimensional pure compact $U(1)$ lattice gauge theory, we analyse topological aspects of the dynamics of monopoles across the deconfinement phase transition. We do this using tools from Topological Data Analysis (TDA). We demonstrate…
We determine the fine-tuning of the Yukawa couplings of supersymmetric QCD, discretized on a lattice. We use perturbation theory at one-loop level. The Modified Minimal Subtraction scheme ($\overline{{\rm MS}}$) is employed; by its…
We describe how the entanglement renormalisation approach to topological lattice systems leads to a general procedure for treating the whole spectrum of these models, in which the Hamiltonian is gradually simplified along a parallel…
We present a numerical treatment of a novel non-perturbative lattice regularization of a $1+1d$ $SU(2)$ Chiral Gauge Theory. Our approach follows recent proposals that exploit the newly discovered connection between anomalies and…
We study the U(2) lattice gauge theory in the pure gauge sector using the simplest action, with determinant and fundamental terms, having the naive continuum limit of SU(2)$\times$U(1). We determine part of the phase diagram of the model…
We apply analytic perturbation theory in next-to-next-to-leading order to inclusive semileptonic $\tau$-decay and study the renormalization scheme dependence. We argue that the renormalization scheme ambiguity is considerably reduced in the…
The previously developed renormalizable perturbative 1/N-expansion in higher dimensional scalar field theories is extended to gauge theories with fermions. It is based on the $1/N_f$-expansion and results in a logarithmically divergent…
Gauge-invariant perturbation theory for theories with a Brout-Englert-Higgs effect, as developed by Fr\"ohlich, Morchio and Strocchi, starts out from physical, exactly gauge-invariant quantities as initial and final states. These are…
We discuss weak coupling perturbation theory for lattice actions in which the fermions couple to smeared gauge links. The normally large integrals that appear in lattice perturbation theory are drastically reduced. Even without detailed…
A lattice formulation of Lifshitz-type gauge theories is presented. While the Lorentz-invariant Yang-Mills theory is not renormalizable in five dimensions, non-Abelian Lifshitz-type gauge theories are renormalizable and asymptotically free.…
Models for what may lie behind the Standard Model often require non-perturbative calculations in strongly coupled field theory. This creates opportunities for lattice methods, to obtain quantities of phenomenological interest as well as to…
The consequences of the gauge-coupling dependent normalization-factor of $1/g^{\alpha}$ in the transfer-matrix of 2d U(1) lattice gauge theory are explored. It is seen by the $\alpha=1$ choice that the lowest energy develops a minimum at…
We consider one dimensional lattice gauge theories constructed by the minimal coupling prescription. It is shown that these theories are exactly solvable in the thermodynamic limit. After considering the most general case, we discuss some…
