We derive the action for chiral spinor multiplets coupled to vector and scalar multiplets. We give the component form of the action, which contains gauge invariant mass terms for the antisymmetric tensors in the spinor superfield and…
Fixed-point (FP) lattice actions are classically perfect, i.e., they have continuum classical properties unaffected by discretization effects and are expected to have suppressed lattice artifacts at weak coupling. Therefore they provide a…
It has been shown for low-spin fields that the use of only the self-dual part of the connection as basic variable does not lead to extra conditions or inconsistencies. We study whether this is true for more general chiral action. We…
We consider a generalization of the basic fuzzy torus to a fuzzy torus with non-trivial modular parameter, based on a finite matrix algebra. We discuss the modular properties of this fuzzy torus, and compute the matrix Laplacian for a…
We provide an elementary systematic discussion of single-trace matrix actions and of the group of matrix reparameterization that acts on them. The action of this group yields a generalized notion of gauge invariance which encompasses…
We analyze and give explicit representations for the effective abelian vector gauge field actions generated by charged fermions with particular attention to the thermal regime in odd dimensions, where spectral asymmetry can be present. We…
We derive an explicit expression for an associative *-product on fuzzy complex projective spaces. This generalises previous results for the fuzzy 2-sphere and gives a discrete non-commutative algebra of functions on fuzzy complex projective…
Our recent construction arXiv:0903.3966 for the fuzzy 2-sphere in terms of bifundamentals, discovered in the context of the ABJM model, is shown to be explicitly equivalent to the usual (adjoint) fuzzy sphere construction. The matrices…
This paper is a merge of arXiv:1807.05418 and arXiv:1808.01442. We introduce a new class of groupoids, called "boundary action groupoids", which are obtained by gluing reductions of action groupoids. We show that such groupoids model the…
We perform renormalization group transformations to construct optimally local perfect lattice actions for free scalar fields of any mass. Their couplings decay exponentially. The spectrum is identical to the continuum spectrum, while…
We study scaling properties and topological aspects of the 2--d O(3) non--linear $\sigma$--model on the lattice with the parametrized fixed point action recently proposed by P.~Hasenfratz and F.~Niedermayer. The behavior of the mass gap…
We consider aspects of the noncommutative approach to the standard model based on the spectral action principle. We show that as a consequence of the incorporation of the Clifford structures in the formalism, the spectral action contains an…
We study the chiral properties of quenched domain wall fermions with several gauge actions. We demonstrate that the nearly translationally invariant modes in the fifth dimension that dominate the residual mass for Wilson gauge action can be…
The properties of the phi^4 scalar field theory on a fuzzy sphere are studied numerically. The fuzzy sphere is a discretization of the sphere through matrices in which the symmetries of the space are preserved. This model presents three…
We study planar non-topological solitons in models with nonlinear potentials that are bounded from below. These models provide consistent completion for the classical consideration at any energy scale. The properties of our solutions…
The fixed-point (FP) action in QCD, although it is local and determined by classical equations, is difficult to parametrize well and is expensive to simulate. But the stake is high: the FP action has scale invariant instanton solutions, has…
We study renormalization on the fuzzy sphere. We numerically simulate a scalar field theory on it, which is described by a Hermitian matrix model. We show that correlation functions defined by using the Berezin symbol are made independent…
We establish a necessary and sufficient condition for an action of a lattice by homeomorphisms of the circle to extend continuously to the ambient locally compact group. This condition is expressed in terms of the real bounded Euler class…
We show that the Pauli-Villars regularized action for a scalar field in a gravitational background in 1+1 dimensions has, for any value of the cutoff M, a symmetry which involves non-local transformations of the regulator field plus (local)…
In this paper we continue and improve the analysis of the effective actions obtained by integrating out a scalar and a fermion field coupled to external symmetric sources, started in the previous paper. The first subject we study is the…
