Non-relativistic conformal field theory is significant to understand various aspects of an ultra-cold system. In this paper, we study a non-relativistic system of two-component fermions interacting with a complex boson with Yukawa-like…

It is well-known that staggered fermions do not necessarily satisfy the same global symmetries as the continuum theory. We analyze the mechanism behind this phenomenon for arbitrary dimension and gauge group representation. For this purpose…

Conformal field theory, describing systems with scaling symmetry, plays a crucial role throughout physics. We describe a quantum algorithm to simulate the dynamics of conformal field theories, including the action of local conformal…

Using lattice simulations, we study the extent of the conformal window for an $\text{SU}(3)$ gauge theory with $N_f$ Dirac fermions in the fundamental representation. We present evidence that the infrared behavior is conformal for $12 \leq…

Jamming and percolation transitions in the standard random sequential adsorption of particles on regular lattices are characterized by a universal set of critical exponents. The universality class is preserved even in the presence of…

We study the distribution of particle number in extended subsystems of a one-dimensional non-interacting Fermi gas confined in a potential well at zero temperature. Universal features are identified in the scaled bulk and edge regions of…

We calculate triangle anomalies for fermions with non-canonical scaling dimensions. The most well known example of such fermions (aka unfermions) occurs in Seiberg duality where the matching of anomalies (including mesinos with scaling…

We use the worldline formalism to derive a universal relation for the lower boundary of the conformal window in non-supersymmetric QCD-like theories. The derivation relies on the convergence of the expansion of the fermionic determinant in…

We review recent advances in the theory of trapped fermions using techniques borrowed from random matrix theory (RMT) and, more generally, from the theory of determinantal point processes. In the presence of a trap, and in the limit of a…

One of the major frontiers of lattice field theory is the inclusion of light fermions in simulations, particularly in pursuit of accurate, first principles predictions from lattice QCD. With dedicated Teraflops-scale computers currently…

We investigate the phase structure of lattice QCD for general number of flavors $N_F$. Based on numerical data combined with the results of the perturbation theory we propose the following picture: When $N_F \ge 17$, there is only one IR…

We employ the conformal bootstrap to re-examine the problem of finding the critical behavior of four-Fermion theory at its strong coupling fixed point. Existence of a solution of the bootstrap equations indicates self-consistency of the…

We present updated results for the non-perturbative $\beta$-function of SU(3) gauge theories with $N_f = 12$ or 10 massless flavors in the fundamental rep or $N_f = 2$ in the sextet rep, measured with staggered fermions. New data at finer…

We report on our finite temperature 2+1 flavor lattice QCD simulation to study the thermodynamic properties of QCD near the (pseudo) critical point employing $N_T=12$ and $16$. The simulation points are chosen along the lines of constant…

We study the conformal bootstrap for 4-point functions of fermions $\langle \psi_i \psi_j \psi_k \psi_{\ell} \rangle$ in parity-preserving 3d CFTs, where $\psi_i$ transforms as a vector under an $O(N)$ global symmetry. We compute bounds on…

It is widely believed that chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken at zero temperature in the strong coupling limit of staggered fermions, for any number of colors and flavors. Using Monte Carlo simulations, we show that this conventional…

As a computationally less costly test case for full QCD, we investigate an SU(3) Yang-Mills theory coupled to a bosonic spinor field. This theory corresponds to QCD with minus two quark flavors and is known as the bermion model. Our central…

We revisit the long-standing conjecture that in unitary field theories, scale invariance implies conformality. We explain why the Zamolodchikov-Polchinski proof in D=2 does not work in higher dimensions. We speculate which new ideas might…

Conformal prediction provides a powerful framework for constructing distribution-free prediction regions with finite-sample coverage guarantees. While extensively studied in univariate settings, its extension to multi-output problems…

In this paper we address the problem of localizing fermion states on stable domain walls junctions. The study focus on the consequences of intersecting six independent 8d domain walls to form 4d junctions in a ten-dimensional spacetime.…
