The SU($N$) principal chiral model is asymptotically free and integrable in $1+1$ dimensions. In the large-$N$ limit, there is no scattering, but correlation functions are {\em not} those of a free field theory. We briefly review the…
This lecture provides a pedagogical instruction to the basic concepts of the Skyrme model and its some applications. As the preliminary for understanding the Skyrme model, we first briefly explain the large $N_c$ expansion, chiral symmetry…
Using the linear sigma model, we study the evolutions of the quark condensate and of the nucleon mass in the nuclear medium. Our formulation of the model allows the inclusion of both pion and scalar-isoscalar degrees of freedom. It…
We derive a model-independent integral formula for chiral susceptibility and attempt to present a continuum model study of it within the framework of Dyson-Schwinger Equations. An appropriate regularization is implemented to remove the…
Closure problems are omnipresent when simulating multiscale systems, where some quantities and processes cannot be fully prescribed despite their effects on the simulation's accuracy. Recently, scientific machine learning approaches have…
The bosonized Chiral Schwinger model (CSM) is quantized on the light-front (LF). The physical Hilbert space of CSM is obtained directly once the constraints on the LF phase space are eliminated. The discussion of the degenerate vacua and…
We study the gauge dependence on the chiral phase transition of Quantum chromodynamics at finite temperature based on the quenched Schwinger-Dyson equation. We first solve the equations without approximations at finite temperature in…

We calculate the large-volume and small-mass dependences of the quark condensate in quenched QCD using Neuberger's operator. We find good agreement with the predictions of quenched chiral perturbation theory, enabling a determination of the…
Chiral quark models offer a practical and simple tool to describe covariantly both low and high energy phenomenology in combination with QCD evolution. This can be done in full harmony with chiral symmetry and electromagnetic gauge…
In [Carey, A.L., J. Mickelsson, and M. K. Murray: Comm. Math. Phys. 183, 707 (1997)] Schwinger terms in hamiltonian quantization of chiral fermions coupled to vector potentials were computed, using some ideas from the theory of gerbes, with…
It has been shown recently that Dirac operators satisfying the Ginsparg-Wilson relation provide a solution of the chirality problem in QCD at finite lattice spacing. We discuss different ways to construct these operators and their…
The temperature dependence of quark and gluon condensates in QCD as precursor of the chiral and deconfining phase transition is modelled with a conformally extended non-linear sigma-model including broken chiral and scale invariance. The…
In this paper we analyze the dispersion property of some models involving Schr\"odinger equations. First we focus on the discrete case and then we present some results on graphs.
Using a covariant method to regularize the composite operators, we obtain the bosonized action of the massive Schwinger model on a classical curved background. Using the solution of the bosonic effective action, the energy of two static…
We show convexity of solutions to a class of convex variational problems in the Gauss and in the Wiener space. An important tool in the proof is a representation formula for integral functionals in this infinite dimensional setting, that…
We discuss the scaling behaviour of different fermion actions in dynamical simulations of the 2-dimensional massive Schwinger model. We have chosen Wilson, hypercube, twisted mass and overlap fermion actions. As physical observables, the…
Topological freezing is a well known problem in lattice simulations: with shrinking lattice spacing a transition between topological sectors becomes increasingly improbable, leading to a problematic increase of the autocorrelation time…
Schwinger's quantization scheme is extended in order to solve the problem of the formulation of quantum mechanics on a space with a group structure. The importance of Killing vectors in a quantization scheme is showed. Usage of these…
Fermionic theories with a vanishing chiral condensate (in the chiral limit) have recently attracted considerable interest; in particular variants of multi-flavour QCD are candidates for this behaviour. Here we consider the 2-flavour…
