Within the superfield approach, we consider the duality between the supersymmetric Maxwell-Chern-Simons and self-dual theories in three spacetime dimensions. Using a gauge embedding method, we construct the dual theory to the self-dual…
We study the effect of a Chern-Simons (CS) term in the phase structure of two different Abelian gauge theories. For the compact Maxwell-Chern-Simons theory, we obtain that for values $g=n/2\pi$ of the CS coupling with $n=\pm 1,\pm 2$, the…
Scale invariance is a central organizing principle in physics, underlying phenomena that range from critical behaviour in statistical mechanics to transport and chaos in nonlinear dynamical systems. Here we present a unified and physically…
We show that the duality between the self-dual and Maxwell-Chern-Simons theories in 2+1-dimensions survives when the space-time becomes noncommutative. Existence of the Seiberg-Witten map is crucial in the present analysis. It should be…
The phenomenon of dynamical quark mass generation is studied in QCD within the framework of a gauge invariant formalism. An exact relationship is established between the equation satisfied by the scalar part of the two-point gauge invariant…
We investigate a proposal to address several outstanding shortcomings of the perturbative Standard Model (SM) of particle physics. The appeal of this proposal is that these features are a manifestation of the non-perturbative sector of the…
Abelian gauge theory in $d\neq 4$ spacetime dimensions is an example of a scale invariant theory which does not possess conformal symmetry -- the special conformal transformation(SCT) explicitly breaks the gauge invariance of the theory. In…
We analytically compute the full counting statistics of charge transfer in a classical automaton of interacting charged particles. Deriving a closed-form expression for the moment generating function with respect to a stationary equilibrium…
We introduce and analyze a class of growing geometric random graphs that are invariant under rescaling of space and time. Directed connections between nodes are drawn according to influence zones that depend on node position in space and…
The renormalization group flows of the coupling constants for the gauged U(N) vector model, with N_f massless fermions in the defining representation, are studied in the large N limit, to all orders in the scalar coupling lambda, leading…
It is by now well-known that a Lorentz force law and the homogeneous Maxwell equations can be derived from commutation relations among Euclidean coordinates and velocities, without explicit reference to momentum, action or variational…
We investigate how a dynamical mass of a fermion is affected by a topological mass of a gauge field in a Maxwell-Chern-Simons $QED_3$ coupled with a two-component fermion. The dynamical mass and also a parity condensate are estimated by…
We study the effect of a Chern-Simons term on dynamical gap generation in a low energy effective theory that describes some features of mono-layer suspended graphene. We use a non-perturbative Schwinger-Dyson approach. We solve a set of…
We consider the role that gauge symmetry breaking terms play on the continuum limit of gauge theories in three dimensions. As a paradigmatic example we consider scalar electrodynamics in which $N_f$ complex scalar fields interact with a…
The possibility of mass in the context of scale-invariant, generally covariant theories, is discussed. The realizations of scale invariance which are considered, are in the context of a gravitational theory where the action, in the first…
A new formalism for construction of the stationary solutions is developed for the four-dimensional gravity coupled to the dilaton, Kalb-Ramond and two Maxwell fields in a low-energy heterotic string theory form. The result of generation is…
By dimensional reduction of a massive BF theory, a new topological field theory is constructed in (2+1) dimensions. Two different topological terms, one involving a scalar and a Kalb-Ramond fields and another one equivalent to the…
It is well known that three-dimensional Einstein's gravity without matter is topological, i.e. it does not have local propagating degrees of freedom. The main result of this work is to show that dynamics in the gravitational sector can be…
I report on recent progress in the study of mass generation in non-abelian gauge theories, and concentrate on the origin of constituent masses in QCD. I argue that a consistent formalism has been developed to describe chiral symmetry…
A spontaneously broken SU(2)xU(1) gauge theory with just one "primordial" generation of fermions is formulated in the context of generally covariant theory which contains two measures of integration in the action: the standard…
