It has been observed more than 25 years ago that sigma model perturbation theory suffers from strongly RG-relevant high-gradient operators. The phenomenon was first seen in 1-loop calculations for the O(N) vector model and it is known to…

We develop a classification of composite operators without gradients at Anderson-transition critical points in disordered systems. These operators represent correlation functions of the local density of states (or of wave-function…

We deform the well-known three dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ Wess-Zumino model by adding higher derivative operators (Lee-Wick operators) to its action. The effects of these operators are investigated both at the classical and quantum levels.

We investigate a class of current-current, Gross-Neveu like, perturbations of WZW models in which the full left-right affine symmetry is broken to the diagonal global algebra only. Our analysis focuses on those supergroups for which such a…

We derive higher Wess--Zumino--Witten (WZW) and gauged WZW (gWZW) terms within strict higher Chern--Simons (CS) gauge theory. Starting from the Cartan homotopy formula, we obtain the $(2n+2)$-dimensional higher CS forms and transgression…

We consider two level $k$ WZNW models coupled to each other through a generalized Thirring-like current-current interaction. It is shown that in the large $k$ limit, this interacting system can be presented as a two-parameter perturbation…

Nonlinear $\sigma$ models (NLSM) with topological terms, i.e., Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) terms, or topological NLSM, are potent descriptions of many critical points and phases beyond the Landau paradigm. These critical systems include the…

First-order differential operators arising from the representation-theoretic decomposition of the covariant derivative play a central role in Riemannian geometry. In this paper, we study Stein-Weiss $O(n)$-gradients acting on covariant…

It has been shown by several authors that a certain class of composite operators with many fields and gradients endangers the stability of nontrivial fixed points in 2+eps expansions for various models. This problem is so far unresolved. We…

We have perturbed Wess-Zumino-Witten (WZW) models and also N=(2,2) supersymmetric sigma models on Lie groups by adding a term containing complex structure to their actions. Then, using non-coordinate basis, we have shown that for N=(2,2)…

For the critical XXZ model, we consider the space W of operators which are products of local operators with a disorder operator. We introduce two anti-commutative family of operators b(z), c(z) which act on the space W. These operators are…

A Wilsonian renormalization group (WRG) equation for nuclear current operators in two-nucleon systems is derived. Nuclear current operators relevant to low-energy Gamow-Teller transitions are analyzed using the WRG equation. We employ the…

We study the operators in the large $N$ tensor models, focusing mostly on the fermionic quantum mechanics with $O(N)^3$ symmetry which may be either global or gauged. In the model with global symmetry we study the spectra of bilinear…

The anomalous dimensions of high-twist operators in deeply inelastic scattering ($\gamma_{2n}$) are calculated in the limit when the moment variable $N \rightarrow 1$ (or $x_B\rightarrow 0$) and at large $Q^2$ (the double logarithmic…

We investigate the critical properties of the three-dimensional (3D) antiferromagnetic RP(N-1}) model, which is characterized by a global O(N) symmetry and a discrete Z_2 gauge symmetry. We perform a field-theoretical analysis using the…

We describe a non-perturbative quantization of classical Wilson loops in the WZW model. The quantized Wilson loop is an operator acting on the Hilbert space of closed strings and commuting either with the full Kac-Moody chiral algebra or…

Because of the nonlocal properties of fractional operators, higher order schemes play more important role in discretizing fractional derivatives than classical ones. The striking feature is that higher order schemes of fractional…

We discuss the role that higher derivative operators play in field theory orbifold compactifications on S_1/Z_2 with local and non-local (Scherk-Schwarz) breaking of supersymmetry. Integrating out the bulk fields generates brane-localised…

In 4D renormalisable theories, integrating out massive states generates in the low energy effective action higher dimensional operators (derivative or otherwise). Using a superfield language it is shown that a 4D N=1 supersymmetric theory…

Sigma models on coset superspaces, such as odd dimensional superspheres, play an important role in physics and in particular the AdS/CFT correspondence. In this work we apply recent general results on the spectrum of coset space models and…
