In this paper we consider logarithmic operators in two different contexts: the adapted to (continuous) Schr\"odinger operators and the classical discrete setting. The Schr\"odinger operator $\mathcal L_V$ on $\mathbb R^d$ is defined as…
We introduce a new local symmetry into the fermion sector of a gauge invariant Lagrangian which may or may not contain a scalar or spontaneous symmetry breaking. The Standard Model in the unitary gauge and QCD are particular cases where…
Logarithmic negativity is a widely used entanglement measure in quantum information theories, which can also be efficiently computed in quantum many-body systems by replica trick or by relating to correlation matrices. In this paper, we…
We study correlation functions in two-dimensional conformal field theory coupled to induced gravity in the light-cone gauge. Focussing on the fermion four-point function, we display an unexpected non-perturbative singularity structure:…
It is expected that conformal symmetry is an emergent property of many systems at their critical point. This imposes strong constraints on the critical behavior of a given system. Taking them into account in theoretical approaches can lead…
Random Dirac fermions in a two-dimensional space are studied numerically. We realize them on a square lattice using the $\pi$-flux model with random hopping. The system preserves two symmetries, the time-reversal symmetry and the symmetry…
We study a model for a quantum critical point in two spatial dimensions between a semimetallic phase, characterized by a stable quadratic Fermi node, and an ordered phase, in which the spectrum develops a band gap. The quantum critical…
We study continuum quantum field theories in 2+1 dimensions with time-reversal symmetry $\cal T$. The standard relation ${\cal T}^2=(-1)^F$ is satisfied on all the "perturbative operators" i.e. polynomials in the fundamental fields and…
It has been recently proposed to use the operator product expansion to evaluate the expectation values of renormalized operators without the need of a direct computation of the relevant renormalization constants. We test the viability of…
We present a general formalism that allows for the computation of large-order renormalized expansions in the spacetime representation, effectively doubling the numerically attainable perturbation order of renormalized Feynman diagrams. We…
We consider the critical relaxation of the Ising model, the so-called model A, and study its operator product expansion. Within perturbation theory, we focus on the operator product expansions of the two-point function and the response…
In various contexts in mathematical physics one needs to compute the logarithm of a positive unbounded operator. Examples include the von Neumann entropy of a density matrix and the flow of operators with the modular Hamiltonian in the…
The logarithmic Laplacian on the (whole) N-dimensional Euclidean space is defined as the first variation of the fractional Laplacian of order 2s at s=0 or, alternatively, as a singular Fourier integral operator with logarithmic symbol.…
We consider a generic time-reversal invariant model of fermions hopping randomly on a square lattice. By means of the conventional replica-trick within the fermionic path-integral formalism, the model is mapped onto a non-linear sigma-model…
We explain how to apply a Gaussian-preserving operator to a fermionic Gaussian state. We use this method to study the evolution of the entanglement entropy of an Ising spin chain following a Lindblad dynamics with string measurement…
An estimate on the operator norm of an abstract fermionic renormalization group map is derived. This abstract estimate is applied in another paper to construct the thermodynamic Green's functions of a two dimensional, weakly coupled fermion…
The critical behavior of the random-field Ising model has been a puzzle for a long time. Different theoretical methods predict that the critical exponents of the random-field ferromagnet in D dimensions are the same as in the pure…
QCD evolution equations in minimal subtraction schemes have a hidden symmetry: One can construct three operators that commute with the evolution kernel and form an $SL(2)$ algebra, i.e. they satisfy (exactly) the $SL(2)$ commutation…
We establish the conditional asymptotic stability in a local energy norm of the unstable soliton for the one-dimensional quadratic Klein-Gordon equation under even perturbations. A key feature of the problem is the positive gap eigenvalue…
I solve a quantum chain whose Hamiltonian is comprised solely of local four-fermi operators by constructing free-fermion raising and lowering operators. The free-fermion operators are both non-local and highly non-linear in the local…
