The static and dynamics properties of finite-size lattice quantum spin models which spontaneously break a continuous $U(1)$ symmetry in the thermodynamic limit are of central importance for a wide variety of physical systems, from condensed…
We investigate the existence of non-topological solutions $(u_1,u_2)$ satisfying $$u_{i}(x)=-2\beta_i\ln|x|+O(1),\quad\text{as }|x|\rightarrow +\infty,$$ such that $\beta_i>1$ and $$(\beta_1-1)(\beta_2-1)>(N_1+1)(N_2+1),$$ for a…
In this work we consider an Abelian O(3) sigma model coupled nonminimally with a gauge field governed by a Maxwell and Chern-Simons terms. Bogomol'nyi equations are constructed for a specific form of the potential and generic nonminimal…
We derive the exact, factorized, purely elastic scattering matrices for the $a_{2n-1}^{(2)}$ family of nonsimply-laced affine Toda theories. The derivation takes into account the distortion of the classical mass spectrum by radiative…
We study open spin chains for strings stretched between giant graviton states in the N=4 SYM field theory in the collective coordinate approach. We study the boundary conditions and the effective Hamiltonian of the corresponding spin chain…
We consider a system of interacting spinless fermions on a two-leg triangular ladder with $\pi/2$ magnetic flux per triangular plaquette. Microscopically, the system exhibits a U(1) symmetry corresponding to the conservation of total…
We point out that the dynamical fermion mass generation in the 3D compact U(1) lattice gauge theory with charged fermion and scalar fields (chi-U-phi_3 model) may be of relevance for the spinon-holon theory with local gauge symmetry in the…
We compute the spectrum of scalar models with a general coupling to the scalar curvature. We find that the perturbative states of these theories are given by two massive spin-0 modes in addition to one massless spin-2 state. This latter…
We present a theoretical study of a mixture of antidipolar and nondipolar Bose-Einstein condensates confined to an infinite tube. We predict the presence of a spin roton and its associated instability, which triggers a continuous…
The description of a system of vortices in terms of dual fields provides a window to new phases of the system. It was found recently that dualizing a 3+1-d boson-fermion system leads to a system of fermions and vortices interacting via a…
Limits of families of conformal field theories are of interest in the context of AdS/CFT dualities. We explore here the large level limit of the two-dimensional N=(2,2) superconformal W_{n+1} minimal models that appear in the context of the…
In the coset model based on (A_{N-1}^{(1)} \oplus A_{N-1}^{(1)}, A_{N-1}^{(1)}) at level (N, N; 2N), it is known that the N=2 superconformal algebra can be realized by the two kinds of adjoint fermions. Each Kac-Moody current of spin-1 is…
We address the interplay between local and global symmetries by analyzing the continuum limit of two-dimensional multicomponent scalar lattice gauge theories, endowed by non-Abelian local and global invariance. These theories are…
In this paper we link the physics of topological nonlinear {\sigma} models with that of Chern-Simons insulators. We show that corresponding to every 2n-dimensional Chern-Simons insulator there is a (n-1)-dimensional topological nonlinear…
The relation between supersymmetric gauge theories in four dimensions and quantum spin systems is exploited to find an explicit formula for the Jost function of the $N$ site $\mathfrak{sl}_{2}$ $XXX$ spin chain (for infinite dimensional…
This paper is concerned with the asymptotic behavior of the free energy for a class of Hermitean random matrix models, with odd degree polynomial potential, in the large N limit. It continues an investigation initiated and developed in a…
We investigate the controversial issue of the existence of universality classes describing critical phenomena in three-dimensional statistical systems characterized by a matrix order parameter with symmetry O(2)xO(N) and symmetry-breaking…
In the N=1 supersymmetric coset model based on (A_{N-1}^{(1)} \oplus A_{N-1}^{(1)}, A_{N-1}^{(1)}) at level (k, N), the lowest N=1 higher spin supercurrent with spins-(5/2, 3), in terms of two independent numerator WZW currents, is…
Causality constrains the gravitational interactions of massive higher spin particles in both AdS and flat spacetime. We explore the extent to which these constraints apply to composite particles, explaining why they do not rule out…
We show that the continuum limit of the integrable XYZ spin-1/2 chain on a half-line gives rise to the boundary sine-Gordon theory using the perturbation method.
