We study chiral symmetry aspects of the positive and negative parity baryons by identifying them with linear representations of the chiral group $SU(N_{f}) \otimes SU(N_{f})$. It is shown that there are two distinctive schemes: naive and…
We study effective gravitational F-terms, obtained by integrating an $U(N)$ adjoint chiral superfield $\Phi$ coupled to the ${\cal N}=1$ gauge chiral superfield $W_\alpha$ and supergravity, to arbitrary orders in the gravitational…
Helicity is a useful concept both for AdS${}_4$ and CFT${}_3$ studies. We work out the complete AdS${}_4$/CFT${}_3$ dictionary for spinning fields/operators in the spinor-helicity base that allows one to scalarize any $n$-point contact…

Gauge invariant chiral theories satisfying the reflection positivity is constructed on a lattice. This requires the introduction of "half gauge fields" defined some time ago by Brydges, Fr\"{o}hlich, and Seiler \cite{BFS}. A two-dimensional…

We propose a Seiberg duality for a 3d $\mathcal{N}=2$ $Spin(7)$ gauge theory with $F$ spinor matters. For $F \ge 6$, the theory allows a magnetic dual description with an $SU(F-4)$ gauge group. The matter content on the magnetic side is…
