The model of magnetic monopoles that was proposed by Paul Dirac in 1931 has long been a subject of theoretical interest in physics because of its potential to explain the quantization of electric charge. While much attention has been given…
We study the three dimensional Georgi-Glashow model (which interpolates smoothly between pure U(1) and SU(2) limits) using a constrained cooling which preserves 't Hooft-Polyakov monopoles. We find that the monopole-antimonopole…
We study monopole operators at the infrared fixed points of Abelian and non-Abelian gauge theories with N_f fermion flavors in three dimensions. At large N_f, independent monopole operators can be defined via the state-operator…

Contrary to the electric charge that generates the electric field, magnetic charge (namely magnetic monopoles) does not exist in the elementary electromagnetism. Consequently, magnetic flux lines only form loops and cannot have a source or…

There has been considerable debate on the onset of exotic spin phenomena in quantum wires due to enhanced many-body effects caused by the one-dimensional (1D) alignment of charge carriers. We explain various observed spin effects, such as a…

The leading non-perturbative contribution to the static QCD potential at r << 1/Lambda_QCD is known to be O(r^2) in operator-product expansion. It indicates that a "Coulomb+linear" potential at r <~ 1/Lambda_QCD is included in the…
A method for systematically including topological degrees of freedom in perturbation theory is developed. This is not bound by the restrictions of semi-classical techniques. The Yang-Mills theory in three Euclidean dimensions is considered…
We promote the Noether charge of the electric-magnetic duality symmetry of $U(1)$ gauge theory, "$G$" to a quantum operator. We construct ladder operators, $D_{(\pm)a}^\dagger(k)$ and $D_{(\pm)a}(k)$ which create and annihilate the…
