We test the utility of the nPI formalism for solving nonperturbative dynamics of gauge theories by applying it to study the phase diagram of SU(N) Higgs theory in 3 Euclidean spacetime dimensions. Solutions reveal standard signatures of a…

The low-energy limits of models with disorder are frequently described by sigma models. In two dimensions, most sigma models admit either a Wess-Zumino-Witten or a theta term. When such a term is present the model can have a stable critical…

Let $S = \{ {A_1},{A_2}, \cdots ,{A_n}\} $ be a finite point set in m-dimensional Euclidean space ${E^m}$, and$\left\| {{A_i}{A_j}} \right\|$ be the distance between $A_i$ and $A_j$. Define $\sigma (S) = \sum\limits_{1 \le i < j \le n}…

The chiral phase transition is investigated within the framework of the linear sigma model at finite temperature. We concentrate on the meson sector of the model and calculate the finite temperature effective potential in the Hartree…

In this talk we review how effective theories of mesons and baryons become exactly soluble in the large-N_c limit. We start with a generic hadron Lagrangian constrained only by certain well-known large-N_c selection rules. The bare vertices…

Using some classical methods of dynamical systems, stability results and asymptotic decay of strong solutions for the complex Ginzburg-Landau equation (CGL), $$ \partial_t u = (a + i\alpha) \Delta u - (b + i \beta) |u|^\sigma u + k u, \,\,…

The theory of an independent Higgs field is given by an $\textrm{O}(N)$ model with an $N$-component scalar $\vec{\phi}$ and a quartic $\lambda(\vec{\phi}\cdot\vec{\phi})^2$ potential when $N=4$. The phase structure of the theory can be…

An instance of Max CSP is a finite collection of constraints on a set of variables, and the goal is to assign values to the variables that maximises the number of satisfied constraints. Max CSP captures many well-known problems (such as Max…

The SUSY CP problem in the framework of gauge mediated SUSY breaking model is considered. We first discuss the electric dipole moments of the electron and neutron, which are likely to be larger than the experimental upper bound if all the…

We study the $\phi^6 - \hat{\phi}^4$ model with $O(N)$-symmetry near three dimensions. This model has a sextic bulk-interaction and a quartic boundary-interaction. The bulk two-point correlator is found upto two-loops by solving the…

We study the phase diagram of an $SU(N)$ gauge theory in terms of the number of colors $N$ and flavors $N_f$ with emphasis on the confinement and chiral symmetry breaking phases. We argue that as opposed to SUSY QCD there is a small region…

We analyze the dynamics of weakly coupled finite temperature $U(N)$ gauge theories on $S^3$ by studying a class of effective unitary matrix model. Solving Dyson-Schwinger equation at large $N$, we find that different phases of gauge…

Motivated by the recent interest in the criticality of open quantum many-body systems, we study nonlinear sigma models with complexified couplings as a general framework for nonunitary field theory. Applying the perturbative…

The Next-to-Minimal Supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model (NMSSM) features extra new sources for CP violation. In contrast to the MSSM CP violation can already occur at tree level in the Higgs sector. We investigate the range of…

Using the example of compact U(1) lattice gauge theory we argue that quantum link models can be used to reproduce the physics of conventional Hamiltonian lattice gauge theories. In addition to the usual gauge coupling $g$, these models have…

Two-dimensional conformally parametrized surfaces immersed in the su(N) algebra are investigated. The focus is on surfaces parametrized by solutions of the equations for the CP^(N-1) sigma model. The Lie-point symmetries of the CP^(N-1)…

We consider the ground state of a one-dimensional critical quantum system carrying a global symmetry in the bulk, which is explicitly broken by its boundary conditions. We probe the system via a string-order parameter, showing how it…

For a zero-temperature Landau symmetry breaking transition in $n$-dimensional space that completely breaks a finite symmetry $G$, the critical point at the transition has the symmetry $G$. In this paper, we show that the critical point also…

In this paper, we focus on the problem of existence and computing of small and large stable models. We show that for every fixed integer k, there is a linear-time algorithm to decide the problem LSM (large stable models problem): does a…

We analyze CP symmetry in symplectic modular-invariant supersymmetric theories. We show that for genus $g\ge 3$ the definition of CP is unique, while two independent possibilities are allowed when $g\le 2$. We discuss the transformation…
