The generalized Einstein - Maxwell field equations which arise from a truncated bosonic part of the low - energy string gravity effective action in four dimensions (the so called Einstein-Maxwell - axion - dilaton theory) are considered.…
I review recent progress in understanding non-perturbative aspects of string theory, quantum gravity and non-commutative geometry using lattice methods.
A non-zero signal $A_\gamma^\mathrm{np}=(-3.0\pm1.4\pm0.2)\times 10^{-8}$ of the gamma-ray asymmetry in the neutron-proton capture was recently reported by the NPDGamma Collaboration which provides the first determination of the $\Delta…
We study nucleon-nucleon scattering on the lattice at next-to-leading order in chiral effective field theory. We determine phase shifts and mixing angles from the properties of two-nucleon standing waves induced by a hard spherical wall in…
In presence of a static pair of sources, the spectrum of low-lying states of any confining gauge theory in D space-time dimensions is described, at large source separations, by an effective string theory. Recently two important advances…
Starting from a field theory containing classical vortex solutions, we obtain an effective string theory of these vortices as a path integral over the two transverse degrees of freedom of the string. We carry out a semiclassical expansion…
We revisit the effective field theory of long relativistic strings such as confining flux tubes in QCD. We derive the Polchinski-Strominger interaction by a calculation in static gauge. This interaction implies that a non-critical string…
We will describe a new superconductivity mechanism, proposed by the authors in [1], which is based on a topologically ordered ground state rather than on the usual Landau mechanism of spontaneous symmetry breaking. Contrary to anyon…
We study the low-energy effective action governing the transverse fluctuations of a long string, such as a confining flux tube in QCD. We work in the static gauge where this action contains only the transverse excitations of the string. The…
We study SU(3) gauge theory on small lattices in the minimal (qutrit) electric field truncation retaining only the ${\bf 1}, {\bf 3}, {\bf \overline{3}}$ representations for the link variables. Explicit expressions are given for the…
We look at energies of the low lying states of the hadronic string in three dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory by forming correlation matrices among different sources. We are able to go to previously inaccessible time separations. This…
We continue our study of effective field theory via homotopy transfer of $L_\infty$-algebras, and apply it to tree-level non-Wilsonian effective actions of the kind discussed by Sen in which the modes integrated out are comparable in mass…
We construct a new gauge theory on a pair of d-dimensional noncommutative tori. The latter comes from an intimate relationship between the noncommutative geometry associated with a lattice vertex operator algebra A and the noncommutative…
A conceptually simple model for strongly interacting compact U(1) lattice gauge theory is expressed as operators acting on qubits. The number of independent gauge links is reduced to its minimum through the use of Gauss's law. The model can…
We consider N=1 supersymmetric U(N), SO(N), and Sp(N) gauge theories, with two-index tensor matter and added tree-level superpotential, for general breaking patterns of the gauge group. By considering the string theory realization and…
We analyze SU(2) gauge theory in a constant chromomagnetic field in three dimensions. Our analysis instead of supporting the existence of a non-trivial minimum in the effective potential, corroborates the evidence of the unstable modes on…
In this paper, we consider the bosonic t-J model, which describes two-component hard-core bosons with a nearest-neighbor (NN) pseudo-spin interaction and a NN hopping. To study phase diagram of this model, we derive effective field theories…
I discuss some current thoughts on how low-energy measurements and consistency constrain theories at high energies with emphasis on string theory. I also discuss some recent work on the dynamics of supersymmetric gauge theories.
The work aims effective and low-dimensional systems. Some different contexts involving gravitational and electromagnetic interactions are investigated. The electromagnetic one approaches bosonic and fermionic Effective Quantum Field…
We introduce a systematic method for constructing a class of lattice structures that we call ``partial line graphs''.In tight-binding models on partial line graphs, energy bands with flat energy dispersions emerge.This method can be applied…
