We determine the critical couplings for the deconfinement phase transition in $SU(2)$ gauge theory on $N_\tau \times N_\sigma^3$ lattices with $N_\tau = 8$ and 16 and $N_\sigma$ varying between 16 and 48. A comparison with string tension…
Lattice gauge theories are a powerful language to theoretically describe a variety of strongly correlated systems, including frustrated magnets, high-$T_c$ superconductors, and topological phases. However, in many cases gauge fields couple…
The quantum Ising chain with the interaction decaying as a power law $1/r^{1+\sigma}$ of the distance between spins $r$ was investigated numerically. A particular attention was paid to the low-energy spectrum, namely, the single-magnon and…

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 investigate the continuum limit scaling of the scalar condensate in the $N_f=2$ Schwinger model on the lattice. We employ maximally twisted mass Wilson fermions and overlap fermions. We compute the scalar condensate by taking the trace…
Critical properties of the compact three-dimensional U(1) lattice gauge theory are explored at finite temperatures. The critical point of the deconfinement phase transition, critical indices and the string tension are studied numerically on…

We have determined the rescaling of the scalar condensate $Z\equiv Z_\phi$ near the critical line of a 4D Ising model. Our lattice data, supporting previous numerical indications, confirm the behaviour $Z_\phi\sim \ln ({\rm cutoff})$. This…
By means of large-scale quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we examine the quantum critical scaling of the magnetic excitation gap (the triplon gap) in a three-dimensional dimerized quantum antiferromagnet, the bicubic lattice, and identify…
We derive upper and lower bounds on the critical temperature $T_c$ and the energy gap $\Xi$ (at zero temperature) for the BCS gap equation, describing spin 1/2 fermions interacting via a local two-body interaction potential $\lambda V(x)$.…
Recently the authors have developed an effective field theory formalism to systematically describe cold fermionic gases near the unitary limit. The theory has enhanced predictive power due to the fact that interactions are dominated by the…
A detailed investigation of finite size effects is performed for SU(2) gauge theory with two fermions in the adjoint representation, which previous lattice studies have shown to be inside the conformal window. The system is investigated…
The lecture note consists of four parts. In the first part, we review a 2+1 dimensional lattice model which realizes emergent supersymmetry at a quantum critical point. The second part is devoted to a phenomenon called fractionalization…
We investigate the width of the Ginzburg critical region and experimental signatures of critical behavior in strongly interacting trapped Fermi gases close to unitarity, where the s-wave scattering length diverges. Despite the fact that the…
We introduce a generalized definition of the isothermal compressibility ($\kappa_{T,\sigma_Q^2}$) calculable by keeping net conserved charge fluctuations rather than total number densities constant. We present lattice QCD results for this…
