We investigate zero modes of the Dirac operator coupled to an Abelian gauge field in three dimensions. We find that the existence of a certain class of zero modes is related to a specific topological property precisely when the requirement…

We study the fourth order Schr\"odinger operator $H=(-\Delta)^2+V$ for a decaying potential $V$ in four dimensions. In particular, we show that the $t^{-1}$ decay rate holds in the $L^1\to L^\infty$ setting if zero energy is regular.…

Among the many far-reaching consequences of the potential existence of a magnetic monopole, it induces topological zero modes in the Dirac equation, which were derived by Jackiw and Rebbi 46 years ago and have been elusive ever since. Here,…

Using the SU(5) symmetry of the 4D hyperdiamond and results on the study of 4D graphene given in "Four Dimensional Graphene" (L.B Drissi, E.H Saidi, M. Bousmina, CPM-11-01, Phys. Rev. D (2011)), we engineer a class of 4D lattice QCD…

We consider the meromorphic operator-valued function 1-K(z) = 1-A(z)/z where A(z) is holomorphic on the domain D, and has values in the class of compact operators acting in a given Hilbert space. Under the assumption that A(0) is a…

We derive a limiting absorption principle on any compact interval in $\mathbb{R} \backslash \{0\}$ for the free massless Dirac operator, $H_0 = \alpha \cdot (-i \nabla)$ in $[L^2(\mathbb{R}^n)]^N$, $n \geq 2$, $N=2^{\lfloor(n+1)/2\rfloor}$,…

We discuss resonances for 1D massless Dirac operators with compactly supported potentials on the line. We estimate the sum of the negative power of all resonances in terms of the norm of the potential and the diameter of its support.

We derive the zero mode solutions for a Majorana fermion in the background of a cosmic string and contrast it with the zero mode solution for a (neutral) Dirac fermion. A Majorana zero mode carries no vector or axial charge, and it cannot…

Massless chiral excitations can arise from the interactions between a fermion and an axion string, propagating along the string and allowing it to superconduct. The properties of these excitations, or zero modes, dictate how the string…
