The hallmark of a 2 dimensional topologically ordered phase is the existence of deconfined `anyon' excitations that have exotic braiding and exchange statistics, different from those of ordinary bosons or fermions. As opposed to…
A self-consistent treatment of two and three point functions in models with trilinear interactions forces them to have opposite anomalous dimensions. We indicate how the anomalous dimension can be extracted nonperturbatively by solving and…
Anomalous diffusion phenomena occur on length scales spanning from intracellular to astrophysical ranges. A specific form of decay at large argument of the probability density function of rescaled displacement (scaling function) is derived…
We consider the scenario where in a five-dimensional theory, the extra spatial dimension has different scaling than the other four dimensions. We find background maximally symmetric solutions, when the bulk is filled with a cosmological…
We construct a one-dimensional local spin Hamiltonian with an intrinsically non-local, and therefore anomalous, global $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry. The model is closely related to the quantum Ising model in a transverse magnetic field, and…
We examine the island size distribution function and spatial correlation function of a model for island growth in the submonolayer regime in both 1 and 2 dimensions. In our model the islands do not grow in shape, and a fixed number of…
Trace anomaly for dilaton coupled conformal theories on curved background with non-zero dilaton is found from supergravity side as an IR effect using AdS/CFT correspondence. For $d=2$ it coincides with the conformal anomaly for dilaton…
AdS space is the universal covering of a hyperboloid. We consider the action of the deck transformations on a classical string worldsheet in $AdS_5\times S^5$. We argue that these transformations are generated by an infinite linear…
We use the equations of motion in combination with crossing symmetry to constrain the properties of interacting fermionic boundary conformal field theories. This combination is an efficient way of determining operator product expansion…
For an effective AdS theory, we present a simple prescription to compute the renormalization of its dual boundary field theory. In particular, we define anomalous dimension holographically as the dependence of the wave-function…
We present a simple four-dimensional model in which anomaly mediated supersymmetry breaking naturally dominates. The central ingredient is that the hidden sector is near a strongly-coupled infrared fixed-point for several decades of energy…
In this paper we classify integrable conformal defects in N=4 SYM theory for which the scalar fields pick up a non-trivial vacuum expectation value. Defects of this form correspond to Dirichlet boundary conditions that have a pole at the…
The self-assembly of functionalized (patchy) particles with directional interactions into target structures is still a challenge, despite the significant experimental advances on their synthesis. The self-assembly pathways are typically…
Conformal field theory of the D1/D5 system and superstrings on $AdS_3\times S^3\times T^4$ is studied with particular attention to the world-sheet fields corresponding to the $T^4$ part. A solution to the spacetime N=4 superconformal…
We compute four-point correlation functions of scalar composite operators in the N=4 supercurrent multiplet at order g^4 using the N=1 superfield formalism. We confirm the interpretation of short-distance logarithmic behaviours in terms of…
We show agreements, at one-loop level of field theory, between energies of semiclassical string states on AdS_5 x S^5/Z_M and anomalous dimensions of operators in N=0,1,2 orbifold field theories originating from N=4 SYM. On field theory…
The spectral dimension is a generalization of the Euclidean dimension and quantifies the propensity of a network to transmit and diffuse information. We show that, in hierarchical-modular network models of the brain, dynamics are…
We consider the anomalous dimension of a certain twist two operator in N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. At strong coupling and large-N it is captured by the classical dynamics of a spinning D5-brane. The present calculation generalizes the…
Generally, quantum field theories can be thought as deformations away from conformal field theories. In this article, with a simple bottom up model assumed to possess a holographic description, we study a putative large N quantum field…
Mobility edges, separating localized from extended states, are known to arise in the single-particle energy spectrum of disordered systems in dimension strictly higher than two and certain quasiperiodic models in one dimension. Here we…
