We study the relation between the kappa-symmetric formulation of the supermembrane in eleven dimensions and the pure-spinor version. Recently, Berkovits related the Green-Schwarz and pure-spinor superstrings. In this paper, we attempt to…

Landau models serve as quantum mechanical systems for generating quantum matrix geometries. In this paper, we demonstrate that Howe duality provides the underlying structure of the super Landau model, reflecting a general feature of…
A theory for a Fermi-liquid-like state in a system of charged bosons at filling factor one is developed, working in the lowest Landau level. The approach is based on a representation of the problem as fermions with a system of constraints,…
In any dimension $N\geq1$ and for given mass $m>0$, we revisit the nonlinear scalar field equation with an $L^2$ constraint: $$ -\Delta u=f(u)-\mu u, \quad u \in H^1(\mathbb{R}^N) \quad \text{with} \quad \|u\|^2_{L^2(\mathbb{R}^N)}=m. $$…

As a toy model for the microscopic description of matter in de Sitter space, we consider a Hamiltonian acting on the spin-j representation of SU(2). This is a model with a finite-dimensional Hilbert space, from which quasinormal modes…
After projection to the lowest Landau level translational invariance and particle conservation combine into dipole symmetry. We show that the new symmetry forbids spontaneous $U(1)$ symmetry breaking at zero temperature. In the case of the…
Landau's phenomenological theory of Fermi liquids is a fundamental paradigm in many-body physics that has been remarkably successful in explaining the properties of a wide range of interacting fermion systems, such as liquid helium-3,…
We examine the low scale particle spectroscopy of an SO(10) (or equivalently SU(5)) inspired supersymmetric model with non-universal gaugino masses. The model assumes minimal supergravity and contains the same number of fundamental…
In this paper, we investigate solutions with prescribed $L^{2}$-norm (i.e., prescribed mass) for the planar Schr\"{o}dinger-Poisson (SP) equation% \begin{equation*} -\Delta u+\lambda u+\alpha \left( \log |\cdot |\ast |u|^{2}\right)…
We describe the lowest Landau level of a quantum electron star in AdS4. In the presence of a suitably strong magnetic field, the dynamics of fermions in the bulk is effectively reduced from four to two dimensions. These two-dimensional…
A derivation of the basis of states for the $SM(2,4k)$ superconformal minimal models is presented. It relies on a general hypothesis concerning the role of the null field of dimension $2k-1/2$. The basis is expressed solely in terms of…
We consider a supersymmetric model with extra $U(1)_B \times U(1)_L$ gauge symmetry that are broken spontaneously. Salient features of this model are that there are three different types of cold dark matter (CDM) candidates, and neutral…
Various aspects of low energy M theory compactified to four dimensions are considered. If the supersymmetry parameter is parallel in the unwarped metric, then supersymmetry requires that the warp factor is trivial, the background four-form…
We study the elliptic system \begin{equation*} \begin{cases} -\Delta u_1 - \kappa_1u_1 = \mu_1|u_1|^{p-2}u_1 + \lambda\alpha|u_1|^{\alpha-2}|u_2|^\beta u_1, \\ -\Delta u_2 - \kappa_2u_2 = \mu_2|u_2|^{p-2}u_2 +…
The Landau problem is discussed in two similar but still different non-commutative frameworks. The ``standard'' one, where the coupling to the gauge field is achieved using Poisson brackets, yields all Landau levels. The ``exotic''…
