In the 1+1D ultra-local lattice Hamiltonian for staggered fermions with a finite-dimensional Hilbert space, there are two conserved, integer-valued charges that flow in the continuum limit to the vector and axial charges of a massless Dirac…
We study the operator product expansion in the bosonic $SU(2)_0$ and SUSY $SU(2)_2$ WZNW models. We find that these OPEs contain both logarithmic operators and new conserved currents, leading to an extension of the symmetry group.
A recently proposed connection between closed string field and an open Wilson line defined on an arbitrary contour is further explored here. We suggest that reparametrization invariance of a Wilson line is the principle which determines the…
Using a Kac-Moody current algebra with $U(1/1)\times U(1/1)$ graded symmetry, we describe a class of (possibly disordered) critical points in two spatial dimensions. The critical points are labelled by the triplets $(l,m,k^{\ }_j)$, where…
We study two-dimensional conformal field theories generated from a ``symplectic fermion'' - a free two-component fermion field of spin one - and construct the maximal local supersymmetric conformal field theory generated from it. This…
Nonlinear fermions of degree $n$ ($n$-fermions) are introduced as particles with creation and annihilation operators obeying the simple nonlinear anticommutation relation $AA^\dagger + {A^\dagger}^n A^n = 1$. The ($n+1$)-order nilpotency of…
We present a systematic perturbative construction of the most general metric operator (and positive-definite inner product) for quasi-Hermitian Hamiltonians of the standard form, H= p^2/2 + v(x), in one dimension. We show that this problem…
We investigate the transport properties of non-interacting particles propagating in a finite Lorentz channel (LC). We show that interparticle power-law correlations emerge, when the dynamics is described at a spatially coarse-grained level.…

We employ techniques from optimal transport in order to prove decay of transfer operators associated to iterated functions systems and expanding maps, giving rise to a new proof without requiring a Doeblin-Fortet (or Lasota-Yorke)…
We reformulate the Thirring model in $D$ $(2 \le D < 4)$ dimensions as a gauge theory by introducing $U(1)$ hidden local symmetry (HLS) and study the dynamical mass generation of the fermion through the Schwinger-Dyson (SD) equation. By…
Conformal field theory at $c=-2$ provides the simplest example of a theory with ``logarithmic'' operators. We examine in detail the $(\xi,\eta)$ ghost system and Coulomb gas construction at $c=-2$ and show that, in contradistinction to…
The generic structure of 1-, 2- and 3-point functions of fields residing in indecomposable representations of arbitrary rank are given. These in turn determine the structure of the operator product expansion in logarithmic conformal field…
The space of local operators in three-dimensional quantum electrodynamics contains monopole operators that create $n$ units of gauge flux emanating from the insertion point. This paper uses the state-operator correspondence to calculate the…
Motivated by certain problems of statistical physics we consider a stationary stochastic process in which deterministic evolution is interrupted at random times by upward jumps of a fixed size. If the evolution consists of linear decay, the…
$L$-ensembles are a class of determinantal point processes which can be viewed as a statistical mechanical systems in the grand canonical ensemble. Circulant $L$-ensembles are the subclass which are locally translationally invariant and…
The possibility of Lorentz symmetry breaking (LSB) has attracted considerable attention in recent years. Spontaneous LSB, in particular, offers the attractive prospect of the graviton as a Nambu-Golstone boson. Here we consider the question…
We study the operator product expansion of two non-interacting chiral currents in the presence of external gauge fields in four dimensional euclidean space. We obtain the operator singularity in terms of the beta function of the free energy…
For discretisations of hyperbolic conservation laws, mimicking properties of operators or solutions at the continuous (differential equation) level discretely has resulted in several successful methods. While well-posedness for nonlinear…
