Two-loop contributions to the anomalous correlation function <J_mu(x)J_nu(y)J_rho(z)> of three chiral currents are calculated by a method based on the conformal properties of massless field theories. The method was previously applied to…

We propose the quantum simulation of a fermion and an antifermion field modes interacting via a bosonic field mode, and present a possible implementation with two trapped ions. This quantum platform allows for the scalable add-up of bosonic…

We extend the recently proposed symmetry breaking scenario of QCD$_3$ to the so-called "master" $(2+1)$d bosonization duality, which has bosonic and fermionic matter on both ends. Using anomaly arguments, a phase diagram emerges with…
We consider a two-dimensional fermion on the strip in the presence of an arbitrary number of zero-dimensional boundary changing defects. We show that the theory is still conformal with time dependent stress-energy tensor and that the…

We study photon-meson transition formfactors of light mesons in the kinematics, where one photon is real and other is virtual. Dispersive approach to axial anomaly leads to the anomaly sum rule. The absence of corrections to it allows us to…
Recent work on a family of boson-fermion mappings has emphasized the interplay of symmetry and duality: Phases related by a particle-vortex duality of bosons (fermions) are related by time-reversal symmetry in their fermionic (bosonic)…
We present two different aspects of the anomalies in quantum field theory. One is the dispersion relation aspect, the other is differential geometry where we derive the Stora--Zumino chain of descent equations.
Recently, lattice formulations of 2D Abelian chiral gauge theory have been constructed based on Abelian bosonization. It is remarkable about these 2D lattice formulations that they reproduce the same gauge anomaly structure as the continuum…
