We consider bosons at Landau level filling $\nu=1$ on a thin torus. In analogy with previous work on fermions at filling $\nu =1/2$, we map the low-energy sector onto a spin-1/2 chain. While the fermionic system may realize the gapless…

In a previous paper we showed that the absence of the van Dam-Veltman-Zakharov discontinuity as M^2 -> 0 for massive spin-2 with a Lambda term is an artifact of the tree approximation, and that the discontinuity reappears at one loop, as a…

In this paper we study a 3D lattice spin model of CP$^1$ Schwinger-bosons coupled with dynamical compact U(1) gauge bosons. The model contains two parameters; the gauge coupling and the hopping parameter of CP$^1$ bosons. At large (weak)…

We study a correspondence between spin three-manifolds and bosonic abelian topological orders. Let $N$ be a spin three-manifold. We can define a $(2+1)$-dimensional topological order $\mathrm{TO}_N$ as follows: its anyons are the torsion…

This thesis concerns the large-N limit, a classical limit where fluctuations in gauge-invariant variables vanish. The large dimension limit for rotation-invariant variables in atoms is given as an example of a classical limit other than…

This paper is concerned with the investigation of the massless regime of an integrable spin chain based on the quantum group deformation of the $OSp(3|2)$ superalgebra. The finite-size properties of the eigenspectra are computed by solving…

We study spinon excitations of the integrable spin-1 (Fateev-Zamolodchikov; FZ) chain and their relation to the hidden supersymmetry. Using the notion of the supercharges earlier introduced to the spin chains, which change the system length…

We revisit the relation between the spherical model of Berlin-Kac and the spin $O(N)$ model in the limit $N \to \infty$, and explain how they are connected via the discrete Gaussian free field (GFF). Using probabilistic limit theorems and…

We consider anomaly free combinations of chiral fermions coupled to $U(1)$ gauge fields on a 2D torus first in the continuum and then on the lattice in the overlap formulation. Both in the continuum and on the lattice, when the background…

Starting from an extension of the Poisson bracket structure and Kubo-Martin-Schwinger-property of classical statistical mechanics of continuous systems to spin systems, defined on a lattice, we derive a series of, as we think, new 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…

One step towards realistic Kaluza-Klein[like] theories and a loop hole through the Witten's "no-go theorem" is presented for cases which we call an effective two dimensionality cases: In $d=2$ the equations of motion following from the…

The addition of mass terms in general breaks gauge symmetries which can be recovered usually via Stueckelberg fields. The massive BF model describes massive spin-1 particles while preserving the $U(1)$ symmetry without Stueckelberg fields.…

The limit of families of two-dimensional conformal field theories has recently attracted attention in the context of AdS/CFT dualities. In our work we analyse the limit of N=(2,2) superconformal minimal models when the central charge…

We study quantum integrability of affine Toda theories with a line of defect. In particular, we focus on the problem of constructing quantum higher-spin conserved currents in models defined by two A_r^{(1)} Toda theories separated by a…

We study the maximum number of crossing limit cycles in piecewise-smooth vector fields on the two-dimensional torus, where the discontinuity set is the boundary of the fundamental square. Under the assumption of a polynomial first integral…

We have verified various proposals that were suggested in our last paper concerning the continuum limit of a compact formulation of the lattice U(1) pure gauge theory in 4 dimensions using a nonperturbative gauge-fixed regularization. Our…

Non-Abelian defects that bind Majorana or parafermion zero modes are prominent in several topological quantum computation schemes. Underpinning their established understanding is the quantum Ising spin chain, which can be recast as a…

A family of models for fluctuating loops in a two dimensional random background is analyzed. The models are formulated as O(n) spin models with quenched inhomogeneous interactions. Using the replica method, the models are mapped to the…

We discuss the possible existence of a spin-gap phase in the low-doping regime of strongly-correlated two-dimensional electrons within the gauge field description of the t-J model. The spin-gap phase was recently shown by Ubbens and Lee to…
