The loop variable approach used earlier to obtain free equations of motion for the massive modes of the open string, is generalized to include interaction terms. These terms, which are polynomial, involve only modes of strictly lower mass.…
We have applied a new gauge-invariant, noncompact, Monte Carlo method to simulate the $U(1)$, $SU(2)$, and $SU(3)$ gauge theories on $8^4$ and $12^4$ lattices. The Creutz ratios of the Wilson loops agree with the exact results for $U(1)$…
Wilson loops are essential objects in QCD and have been pivotal in scale setting and demonstrating confinement. Various generalizations are crucial for computations needed in effective field theories. In lattice gauge theory, Wilson loop…

In this paper we conduct a numerical study of the supersymmetric O(3) non-linear sigma model. The lattice formulation we employ was derived in \cite{sigma1} and corresponds to a discretization of a {\it twisted} form of the continuum…
We study the equivalence of four different approaches to calculate the excitonic linear and nonlinear optical response of multiband semiconductors. These four methods derive from two choices of gauge, i.e. length and velocity gauges, and…
