We consider a class of conformal models describing closed strings in axially symmetric stationary magnetic flux tube backgrounds. These models are closed string analogs of the Landau model of a particle in a magnetic field or the model of…
The renormalization group flow recently found by Br\'ezin and Zinn- Justin by integrating out redundant entries of the $(N+1)\times (N+1)$ hermitian random matrix is studied. By introducing explicitly the RG flow parameter, and adding…
In this chapter, we describe three related studies of the universal physics of two-component unitary Fermi gases with resonant short-ranged interactions. First we discuss an ab initio auxiliary field quantum Monte Carlo technique for…
Correlation functions of one unit spectral flowed states in string theory on AdS_3 are considered. We present the modified Knizhnik-Zamolodchikov and null vector equations to be satisfied by amplitudes containing states in winding sector…
The focus of this thesis is on (1) the role of Ka\v c-Moody (KM) algebras in string theory and the development of techniques for systematically building string theory models based on higher level ($K\geq 2$) KM algebras and (2) fractional…
We compute exact solutions of two--matrix models, i.e. detailed genus by genus expressions for the correlation functions of these theories, calculated without any approximation. We distinguish between two types of models, the unconstrained…
The notion of the flow introduced by Kitaev is a manifestly topological formulation of the winding number on a real lattice. First, we show in this paper that the flow is quite useful for practical numerical computations for systems without…
A generalisation of the non--perturbatively stable solutions of string equations which respect the KdV flows, obtained recently for the $(2m-1,2)$ conformal minimal models coupled to two--dimensional quantum gravity, is presented for the…
Stochastic fluid-fluid models (SFFMs) offer powerful modeling ability for a wide range of real-life systems of significance. The existing theoretical framework for this class of models is in terms of operator-analytic methods. For the first…
We introduce a systematic mathematical language for describing fixed point models and apply it to the study to topological phases of matter. The framework is reminiscent of state-sum models and lattice topological quantum field theories,…
We apply pseudo-spectral methods to integrate functional flow equations with high accuracy, extending earlier work on functional fixed point equations \cite{Borchardt:2015rxa}. The advantages of our method are illustrated with the help of…
We consider dS_2/CFT_1 where the asymptotic symmetry group of the de Sitter spacetime contains the Virasoro algebra. We construct representations of the Virasoro algebra realized in the Fock space of a massive scalar field in de Sitter,…
In a previous paper (hep-th/0509067) using matrix model, we showed that closed string tachyons can resolve spacelike singularity in one particular class of Misner space (with anti-periodic boundary conditions for fermions around the spatial…
The introduction of operator states and of observables in various fields of quantum physics has raised questions about the mathematical structures of the corresponding spaces. In the framework of third quantization it had been conjectured…
In closed string vacua, ergodicity of unipotent flows provide a key for relating vacuum stability to the UV behavior of spectra and interactions. Infrared finiteness at all genera in perturbation theory can be rephrased in terms of…
Adapting Lindstr\"om's well-known construction, we consider a wide class of functions which are generated by flows in a planar acyclic directed graph whose vertices (or edges) take weights in an arbitrary commutative semiring. We give a…
In this paper we investigate the tau-functions for the stationary sector of Gromov-Witten theory of the complex projective line and its version, relative to one point. In particular, we construct the integral representation for the points…
The one-dimensional transverse field Ising model is solved by continuous unitary transformations in the high-field limit. A high accuracy is reached due to the closure of the relevant algebra of operators which we call string operators. The…
We present an exploration of the rich theoretical connections between several classes of regularized models, network flows, and recent results in submodular function theory. This work unifies key aspects of these problems under a common…
We study deformations of closed string theory by primary fields of conformal weight $(1,1)$, using conformal techniques on the complex plane. A canonical surface integral formalism for computing commutators in a non-holomorphic theory is…
