We consider light-cone quantized ${\rm{QCD}}_{1+1}$ on a `cylinder' with periodic boundary conditions on the gluon fields. This is the framework of discretized light-cone quantization. We review the argument that the light-cone gauge…
The path integral of a general N=2 supersymmetric gauge theory on S^4 is exactly evaluated in the presence of a supersymmetric 't Hooft loop operator. The result we find - obtained using localization techniques - captures all perturbative…
We propose a generalization of the quantum entropy power inequality involving conditional entropies. For the special case of Gaussian states, we give a proof based on perturbation theory for symplectic spectra. We discuss some implications…
Light-cone quantization of gauge theories is discussed from two perspectives: as a calculational tool for representing hadrons as QCD bound-states of relativistic quarks and gluons, and as a novel method for simulating quantum field theory…
We continue our studies of the ghost condensate (GC) with sixth-order dispersion relation. Contrary to the GC with quartic dispersion relation, we find that the correction to the Newtonian potential explicitly depends on the space and time…
We study monopoles in gauge theories with generic gauge group. Magnetic charges are in one-to-one correspondence with the second homotopy classes at spatial infinity (${\Pi}_2$), which are therefore identified by the 't Hooft tensor. We…
The canonical group quantization approach has been used to study noncommutative graphene in the presence of dual magnetic fields. The canonical group for the phase space $\mathbb{R}^2\times \mathbb{R}^2$ with both symmetric and Landau dual…
We introduce new techniques that can preserve unitarity of the system including ghost particles. Negative norms of the particles can be involved in zero-norm states by constraints of the physical space. These are useful to apply the…
An induced gravity brane-world model is considered herein. A Gauss-Bonnet term is provided for the bulk, whereas phantom matter is present on the brane. It is shown that a combination of infra-red and ultra-violet modifications to general…
This work describes the formulation of the manifestly ghost-free (spacetime) light-cone gauge for bosonic string theory with non-trivial spacetime metric, antisymmetric tensor, dilaton and tachyon fields. The action is a general…
Adopting the gauge-invariant but path-dependent variables formalism, we study the coupling of torsion fields with photons in the presence of an external background electromagnetic. We explicitly show that, in the case of a constant electric…
We construct a finite model of 't Hooft's shock wave commutation relations from the ansatz\cite{Carlip}\cite{Solodukhin}\cite{BZ} that the quantum degrees of freedom in a causal diamond in a solution of Einstein's Equations are those of a…
We report ghost imaging of a single non-reproducible temporal signal in the range of tens kHz by using pseudo-thermal speckle light patterns and a single detector array with a million of pixels working without any temporal resolution. A set…
We consider the particle spectrum and event shapes in large N gauge theories in different regimes of the short-distance 't Hooft coupling, lambda. The mesons in the small lambda limit should have a Regge spectrum in order to agree with…
We investigate 't Hooft's technique of changing the gauge parameter of the linear covariant gauge from the point of view of the path integral with respect to the gauge freedom. Extension of the degrees of freedom allows us to formulate a…
The 'tHooft's 5N-parametric multiinstanton solution is generalized to curvilinear coordinates. Expressions can be simplified by a gauge transformation that makes $\eta$-symbols constant in the vierbein formalism. This generates the…
This work examines non-perturbative dynamics of a $2$-dimensional QFT by using discrete 't Hooft anomaly, semi-classics with circle compactification and bosonization. We focus on charge-$q$ $N$-flavor Schwinger model, and also…
It is shown that a one-dimensional damped wave equation with an odd time derivative nonlinearity exhibits small amplitude bifurcating time periodic solutions, when the bifurcation parameter is the linear damping coefficient is positive and…
Entangled states, like the two-mode squeezed vacuum state, are known to give quantum advantage in the illumination protocol, a method to detect a weakly reflecting target submerged in a thermal background. We use non-Gaussian photon-added…
Certain quantum mechanical potentials give rise to a vanishing perturbation series for at least one energy level (which as we here assume is the ground state), but the true ground-state energy is positive. We show here that in a typical…
