We put forth a Fierzed hopping expansion for strong coupling Wilson fermions. As an application, we show that the strong coupling Schwinger model on parallelogram lattices with nonbacktracking Wilson fermions span, as a function of the…
The phase diagram of the O(n) model, in particular the special case $n=0$, is studied by means of transfer-matrix calculations on the loop representation of the O(n) model. The model is defined on the square lattice; the loops are allowed…
We present an elegant and simple dynamical model of symmetric, non-degenerate (n x n) matrices of fixed signature defined on a n-dimensional hyper-cubic lattice with nearest-neighbor interactions. We show how this model is related to…
A lattice-based model for continuum percolation is applied to the case of randomly located, partially aligned sticks with unequal lengths in 2D which are allowed to cross each other. Results are obtained for the critical number of sticks…
We investigate a family of lattice models with manifest N=2 supersymmetry. The models describe fermions on a 1D lattice, subject to the constraint that no more than k consecutive lattice sites may be occupied. We discuss the special…
We present lattice results for spin-1/2 fermions at unitarity, where the effective range of the interaction is zero and the scattering length is infinite. We measure the spatial coherence of difermion pairs for a system of 6, 10, 14, 18,…
Effective quantum field theoretical continuum models for graphene are investigated. The models include a complex scalar field and a vector gauge field. Different gauge theories are considered and their gap patterns for the scalar, vector,…
We review the construction of exactly solvable lattice models whose continuum limits are $N=2$ supersymmetric models. Both critical and off-critical models are discussed. The approach we take is to first find lattice models with natural…
A class of kinetically constrained models with reflection symmetry is proposed as an extension of the Fredrickson-Andersen model. It is proved that the proposed model on the square lattice exhibits a freezing transition at a non-trivial…
We derive the general continuum model for a bilayer system of staggered-flux square lattices, with arbitrary elastic deformation in each layer. Applying this general continuum model to the case where the two layers are rigidly rotated…
The work contains a detailed study of the scaling limit of a certain critical, integrable inhomogeneous six-vertex model subject to twisted boundary conditions. It is based on a numerical analysis of the Bethe ansatz equations as well as…
As a first step towards a nonperturbative investigation of the gauge-fixing (Rome) approach to lattice chiral gauge theories we study a U(1) model with an action that includes a local gauge-fixing term and a mass counterterm for the gauge…
We identify natural degrees of freedom of polycrystalline materials -- affine transformations of grains -- with those of a three-dimensional lattice theory for $(T\otimes\Omega)(\mathbb{R}^3)$. We define a lattice Dirac operator on this…
We present two 2D lattice models with non-Fermi liquid metallic phases. We show that the low energy physics of these models is exactly described by a Fermi sea of fractionalized quasiparticles coupled to a fluctuating U(1) gauge field. In…
The nature and the very existence of the resonant plaquette valence bond state that separates the classical columnar phase and the Rokhsar and Kivelson point in the quantum dimer model remains unsettled. Here we take a different line of…
Attractive interaction between fermions can lead to pairing and superfluidity in an optical lattice. In contrast to the `continuum', on a lattice the trap induced density variation can generate a non monotonic profile of the pairing…
We derive and discuss an experimentally realistic model describing ultracold atoms in an optical lattice including a commensurate, but staggered, Zeeman field. The resulting band structure is quite exotic; fermions in the third band have an…
When continuous fields are expanded in a wavelet basis, a D-dimensional continuum action becomes a (D+1)-dimensional lattice action on the naively discretized Poincare-patch coordinates of an Euclidean AdS(D+1). New possible criteria for…
The phase diagram at zero temperature of a lattice SU(2) scalar-fermion model in (2+1) dimensions is studied numerically and with Mean-Field methods. Special attention is devoted to the strong coupling regime. We have developed a new method…
We consider a generic time-reversal invariant model of fermions hopping randomly on a square lattice. By means of the conventional replica-trick within the fermionic path-integral formalism, the model is mapped onto a non-linear sigma-model…
