The Euclidean fermionic determinant in four-dimensional quantum electrodynamics is considered as a function of the fermionic mass for a class of $O(2)\times O(3)$ symmetric background gauge fields. These fields result in a determinant free…
We investigate, analytically and numerically, the fermion determinant of a new action on a (1+1)-dimensional Euclidean lattice. In this formulation the discrete chiral symmetry is preserved and the number of fermion components is a half of…
Bosonic and fermionic statistics are well known to give rise to antinomic behaviors, most notably boson bunching vs fermion antibunching. Here, we establish a fundamental relation that combines bosonic and fermionic multiparticle…
We study a theory of Dirac fermions on a disk in presence of an electromagnetic field. Using the heat-kernel technique we compute the functional determinant which results after decoupling the zero-flux gauge degrees of freedom from the…

We find a representation for the determinant of a Dirac operator in an even number $D= 2 n$ of Euclidean dimensions as an overlap between two different vacua, each one corresponding to a bosonic theory with a quadratic action in $2 n + 1$…
A four dimensional fermion determinant is presented as a path integral of the exponent of a local five dimensional action describing constrained bosonic system. The construction is carried out both in the continuum theory and in the lattice…
In five spacetime dimensions, instantons are finite energy, solitonic particles. We describe the dynamics of these objects in the presence of a Chern-Simons interaction. For U(N) instantons, we show that the 5d Chern-Simons term induces a…
We construct a canonical embedding of the space $L^2$ over a determinantal point process to the fermionic Fock space. Equivalently, we show that a determinantal process is the spectral measure for some explicit commutative group of Gaussian…
It is argued that the derivative expansion is a suitable method to deal with finite temperature field theory, if it is restricted to spatial derivatives only. Using this method, a simple and direct calculation is presented for the…
Following the line of \cite{AS} we propose an improved algorithm which allows to calculate a D-dimensional fermion determinant integrating the exponent of D+1 dimensional Hermitean bosonic action. For a finite extra dimension the…
The $\alpha$-determinant is a one-parameter generalisation of the standard determinant, with $\alpha=-1$ corresponding to the determinant, and $\alpha=1$ corresponding to the permanent. In this paper a simple limit procedure to construct…
A representation for the fermionic determinant of the massive Schwinger model, or $QED_2$, is obtained that makes a clean separation between the Schwinger model and its massive counterpart. From this it is shown that the index theorem for…
A dimensionally reduced expression for the QCD fermion determinant at finite temperature and chemical potential is derived which sheds light on the determinant's dependence on these quantities. This is done via a partial zeta…

Let $p_n(x)$, $n=0,1,\dots$, be the orthogonal polynomials with respect to a given density $d\mu(x)$. Furthermore, let $d\nu(x)$ be a density which arises from $d\mu(x)$ by multiplication by a rational function in $x$. We prove a formula…
