We study the renormalisation of $SU(N_c)$ gauge theories on general anisotropic lattices, to one-loop order in perturbation theory, employing the background field method. The results are then applied in the context of two different…

We have measured the running coupling constant of SU(3) gauge theory coupled to Nf=2 flavors of symmetric representation fermions, using the Schrodinger functional scheme. Our lattice action is defined with hypercubic smeared links which,…

Recently we proposed a natural scenario of grand unified theories with anomalous U(1)_A gauge symmetry, in which doublet-triplet splitting is realized in SO(10) unification using Dimopoulos-Wilczek mechanism and realistic quark and lepton…

The decoupling strategy allows one to obtain the value of the strong coupling in QCD from the running in pure gauge. Here we present our strategy to determine the running in the $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills theory. We use a finite-volume scheme with…

This talk offers a brief review of the determination of coupling constants in the framework of dimensionally reduced effective field theories for thermal QCD, specializing on its gluonic sector. Interestingly, higher-order operators that go…

We use analytic continuation to extend the gauge/gravity duality nonperturbative description of the strong force coupling into the transition, near-perturbative, regime where perturbative effects become important. By excluding the…

We study the 2+1 dimensional SU(N) Yang-Mills theory on a finite two-torus with twisted boundary conditions. Our goal is to study the interplay between the rank of the group N, the length of the torus L and the Z_N magnetic flux. After…

We analyze the vacuum structure of SU(2) lattice gauge theories in D=2,3,4, concentrating on the stability of 't Hooft loops. High precision calculations have been performed in D=3; similar results hold also for D=4 and D=2. We discuss the…

The equivalence of cooling to the gradient flow when the cooling step $n_c$ and the continuous flow step of gradient flow $\tau$ are matched is generalized to gauge actions that include rectangular terms. By expanding the link variables up…

Dimensional reduction is a key issue in finite temperature field theory. For example, when following the QCD Free Energy from low to high scales across the critical temperature, ultrasoft degrees of freedom can be captured by a 3d SU(3)…

We study a class of four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ SU($N$) gauge theories with two massless hypermultiplets in the rank-two antisymmetric representation and $0\leq N_f\leq 4$ fundamental flavors. These theories are superconformal for…

We investigate gauge coupling unification for F-theory respectively Type IIB orientifold constructions of SU(5) GUT theories with gauge symmetry breaking via non-trivial hypercharge flux. This flux has the non-trivial effect that it splits…

A non-perturbative finite-size scaling technique is used to study the evolution of the running coupling (in a certain adapted scheme) in the SU(3) Yang-Mills theory. At low energies contact is made with the fundamental dynamical scales,…

We propose a superconducting quantum circuit based on a general symmetry principle -- combinatorial gauge symmetry -- designed to emulate topologically-ordered quantum liquids and serve as a foundation for the construction of topological…

We provide numerical results for the running coupling in $SU(3)$ Yang-Mills theory as determined from an analysis of lattice two and three-point gluon correlation functions. The coupling is evaluated directly, from first principles, by…

We calculate the perturbative corrections in the strong coupling to the unpolarized quark transverse-momentum dependent parton distribution function (TMDPDF) operator within a background-field framework, extending the approach of Ref. [1].…

It was shown using perturbation theory[1] that Thouless energy Ec for a quantum system scales linearly with the conductance of the system. We derive in an alternate way in 1-D that Ec scales with the conductance in a very different way. We…

The entanglement entropy of SU(N) lattice gauge theory is studied exactly in 1+1 space-time dimensions and in Migdal-Kadanoff approximation in higher dimensional space. The existence of a non-analytical behavior reminiscent of a phase…

We provide a quantum path integral definition of an 't Hooft loop operator, which inserts a pointlike monopole in a four dimensional gauge theory. We explicitly compute the expectation value of the circular 't Hooft operators in N=4 super…

Within the context of a String Theory dual to N=1 gauge theories with gauge group SU(Nc) and large Nc, we identify a class of solutions of the background equations for which a suitably defined dual of the gauge coupling exhibits the…
