This is an announcement of some of the results of a longer paper where the supersymmetric vacua of two dimensional N=2 susy gauge theories with matter are shown to be in one-to-one correspondence with the eigenstates of integrable spin…

We establish and analyze a new relationship between the matrices describing an arbitrary component of a spin $s$, where $2s\in \mathbb{Z}^+$, and the matrices of $\mathbb{C}P^{2s}$ two-dimensional Euclidean sigma models. The spin matrices…

We introduce a classical limit of the dynamics of quantum spin systems based on coherent states of SU($N$), where $N$ is the dimension of the local Hilbert space. This approach, that generalizes the well-known Landau-Lifshitz dynamics from…

String bit models provide a possible method to formulate a string as a discrete chain of pointlike string bits. When the bit number $M$ is large, a chain behaves as a continuous string. We study the simplest case that has only one bosonic…

We introduce a theoretical approach to determine the spin structure of harmonically trapped atoms with two-body zero-range interactions subject to an equal mixture of Rashba and Dresselhaus spin-orbit coupling created through Raman coupling…

A simple derivation of the effective spin-wave Hamiltonian for a double-exchange system with infinitely large Hund's-rule coupling is demonstrated. The formalism can be applied to models with arbitrary range of hopping as well as those with…

We study an N=1 two-dimensional non-linear sigma model with boundaries representing, e.g., a gauge fixed open string. We describe the full set of boundary conditions compatible with N=1 superconformal symmetry. The problem is analyzed in…

Using the pure spinor formalism, a quantizable sigma model has been constructed for the superstring in an AdS_5 x S^5 background with manifest PSU(2,2|4) invariance. The PSU(2,2|4) metric g_{AB} has both vector components g_{ab} and spinor…

Here we study the emergence of different Symmetry-Protected Topological (SPT) phases in a spin-2 quantum chain. We consider a Heisenberg-like model with bilinear, biquadratic, bicubic, and biquartic nearest-neighbor interactions, as well as…

Motivated by recent works of Hofman and Maldacena and Dorey we consider a special infinite spin limit of semiclassical spinning string states in AdS5 x S5. We discuss examples of known folded and circular 2-spin string solutions and…

We study the semiclassical spectrum of bosonic string theory on AdS_3 x S^1 in the limit of large AdS angular momentum. At leading semiclassical order, this is a subsector of the IIB superstring on AdS_5 x S^5. The theory includes strings…

We construct "connected" (0,2) sigma models starting from n copies of (2,2) CP(N-1) models. General aspects of models of this type (known as T+O deformations) had been previously studied in the context of heterotic string theories. Our…

Rigidly superconformal sigma models in higher than two dimensions are constructed. These models rely on the existence of conformal Killing spinors on the $p+1$ dimensional worldvolume $(p\le 5)$, and homothetic conformal Killing vectors in…

We consider two-state (q^2=-1) and three-state (q^3=1) one-dimensional quantum spin chains with U_q(SL(2)) symmetry. Taking unrestricted representations (periodic, semi-periodic and nilpotent), we show which are the necessary conditions to…

We construct a supersymmetric standard model in the context of the Z_{12-I} orbifold compactification of the E_8 x E_8' heterotic string theory. The gauge group is SU(3)_c x SU(2)_L x U(1)_Y x U(1)^4 x [SO(10) x U(1)^3]' with sin^2\theta_W…

The pure spinor formulation of superstring theory includes an interacting sector of central charge $c_{\lambda}=22$, which can be realized as a curved $\beta\gamma$ system on the cone over the orthogonal Grassmannian $\text{OG}^{+}(5,10)$.…

We have constructed the quasi-exactly-solvable two-mode bosonic realizations of su(2) and su(1, 1) algebra. We derive the relations leading to the conditions for quasi-exact solvability of two-boson Hamiltonians by determining a general…

N=1, D=4 Superstring possessing $SO(6)\otimes SO(5)$ symmetry action and with the same gauge symmetry obtained from zero mass spectrum of vector meson as well, is constructed from the bosonic string in twenty six dimensions. Without…

We point out that the existence of global symmetries in a field theory is not an essential ingredient in its relation with an integrable model. We describe an obvious construction which, given an integrable spin chain, yields a field theory…

We propose a generalization of the supersymmetric representation of spins with symplectic symmetry, generalizing the rotation group of the spin from SU(2) to SP(N). As a test application of this new representation, we consider two toy…
