Massive Yang-Mills theory is known to be renormalizable in 1+1 dimensions. The gluon mass is introduced by coupling the gauge field to an SU(N) principal chiral nonlinear sigma model. The proof of renormalizability relies on the asymptotic…
The physical particles in supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory (SYM) are bound states of gluons and gluinos. We have determined the masses of the lightest bound states in SU(3) $\mathcal{N}=1$ SYM. Our simulations cover a range of different…
Z(n) monopoles are important for the understanding of Goddard-Nuyts-Olive duality when the scalar field is not in the adjoint representation. We analyze the Z(2) monopole solutions in a SU(n) Yang-Mills-Higgs theory spontaneously broken to…
The fusion rings of Wess-Zumino-Witten models are re-examined. Attention is drawn to the difference between fusion rings over Z (which are often of greater importance in applications) and fusion algebras over C. Complete proofs are given…
We introduce a new spin-fermion mapping, for arbitrary spin $S$ generating the SU(2) group algebra, that constitutes a natural generalization of the Jordan-Wigner transformation for $S=1/2$. The mapping, valid for regular lattices in any…
We study the Hamiltonian lattice Yang-Mills theory based on spin networks that provide a useful basis to represent the physical states satisfying the Gauss law constraints. We focus on $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ Yang-Mills theory in $(2+1)$…
Recently we have proposed a set of variables for describing the infrared limit of four dimensional SU(2) Yang-Mills theory. here we extend these variables to the general case of four dimensional SU(N) Yang-Mills theory. We find that the…
The exact one-to-one mapping between (spinless) Jordan-Wigner lattice fermions and (spin-1/2) spinons is established for all eigenstates of the one-dimensional s = 1=2 XX model on a lattice with an even or odd number N of lattice sites and…
The study of SU(N) quantum spin models is relevant to a variety of physical systems including ultracold atoms in optical lattices, and also leads to insights into novel quantum phases and phase transitions of SU(2) spin models. We use…
In this paper we study the su(m) spin Sutherland (trigonometric) model of D_N type and its related spin chain of Haldane-Shastry type obtained by means of Polychronakos's freezing trick. As in the rational case recently studied by the…
Spin-charge separation in pure SU(2) Yang-Mills theory was recently found to involve the dynamics of an O(3) non-linear sigma model and, seemingly, a Grassmannian non-linear sigma model. In this article we explicitly construct the…
We numerically simulate a non-Abelian lattice gauge theory in two spatial dimensions, with tensor networks (TN), up to intermediate sizes (>30 matter sites) well beyond exact diagonalization. We focus on the SU(2) Yang-Mills model in…
We introduce a set of gauge invariant fermion fields in fermionic coset models and show that they play a very central role in the description of several Conformal Field Theories (CFT's). In particular we discuss the explicit realization of…
Using a Drinfeld twist of Jordanian type, we construct a deformation of the non-compact and $\mathfrak{sl}_2$-invariant $XXX_{-1/2}$ spin-chain. Before the deformation, the seed model can be understood as a sector of the…
It was shown in [AFS00] that there are only three types of irreducible unitary representations theta of sl_2. Using the Schurmann triple one can associate with each theta a number of representations of the square of white noise (SWN)…

This letter continues the program aimed at analysis of the scalar product of states in the Chern-Simons theory. It treats the elliptic case with group SU(2). The formal scalar product is expressed as a multiple finite dimensional integral…
The multiplicities of the decomposition of the product of an arbitrary number $n$ of spin $s$ states into irreducible $SU(2)$ representations are computed. Two complementary methods are presented, one based on random walks in representation…
We study the representation and visualization of finite-dimensional quantum systems. In a generalized Wigner representation, multi-spin operators can be decomposed into a symmetry-adapted tensor basis and they are mapped to multiple…
We examine unitary and nonunitary representations of the Heisenberg-Weyl Lie algebra $\mathfrak{hw}_n$, with particular emphasis on tensor products of unitary representations and on indecomposable nonunitary representations. In the unitary…
