We consider $\mathcal N=2$ $SU(2)$ gauge theories in four dimensions (pure or mass deformed) and discuss the properties of the simplest chiral observables in the presence of a generic $\Omega$-deformation. We compute them by equivariant…

Preliminary results for the Dalitz plot distribution of $\eta^\prime\to\eta\pi\pi$ decays in the frameworks of Large-$N_c$ Chiral Perturbation Theory and Resonance Chiral Theory are given. We hope our results to be of some relevance for the…

A basic problem of classical field theory, which has attracted growing attention over the past decade, is to find and classify all nonlinear deformations of linear abelian gauge theories. The first part of this paper summarizes and…

We study marginal deformations of superconformal Chern-Simons matter theories that are based on 3-algebras. For this, we introduce the notion of an associated 3-product, which captures very general gauge invariant deformations of the…

We study an $\mathcal{N}=2$, pure $U(1)$ SYM theory on a Gibbons-Hawking space $\Omega$-deformed using the $U(1)$ isometry. The resultant 3D theory, after an appropriate "Nekrasov-Witten" change of variables, is asymptotically equivalent to…

We investigate metric independent, gauge invariant and closed forms in the generalized YM theory. These forms are polynomial on the corresponding fields strength tensors - curvature forms and are analogous to the Pontryagin-Chern densities…

This is a write-up of the author's invited talk at the Eighth International Congress of Chinese Mathematicians (ICCM) held at Beijing in June 2019. We give a survey on joint works with Naichung Conan Leung and Ziming Nikolas Ma where we…

An overview is given of Chiral Perturbation Theory and various applications to eta decays. In particular, the main decay $\eta\to3\pi$ is discussed at the one-loop level, and estimates of the higher order corrections are given. The…

We consider the massless charge-$N$ Schwinger model and its deformation with two four-fermion operators. Without the deformations, this model exhibits chiral symmetry breaking without confinement. It is usually asserted that the massless…

Strong coupling dynamics of Yang--Mills theories with chiral fermion content remained largely elusive despite much effort over the years. In this work, we propose a dynamical framework in which we can address non-perturbative properties of…

The recent papers arXiv:1110.0971 and arXiv:1201.5431 have provided a superfield description for vector-tensor multiplets and their Chern-Simons couplings in 4D N = 2 conformal supergravity. Here we develop a superform formulation for these…

We derive the analog of the large $N$ Gross-Taylor holomorphic string expansion for the refinement of $q$-deformed $U(N)$ Yang-Mills theory on a compact oriented Riemann surface. The derivation combines Schur-Weyl duality for quantum groups…

We construct a generalisation of the $\lambda$-deformation of the Principal Chiral Model (PCM) where we deform just a subgroup $F$ of the full symmetry group $G$. We find that demanding Lax integrability imposes a crucial restriction,…

We consider the $\theta$-deformed quantum three sphere $S^3_\theta$ and study its Chern--Simons theory from a spectral point of view. We first construct a spectral triple on $S^3_\theta$ as a generalization of the Dirac geometry on $S^3 $.…

We present a unified topological description of anomalies that generalizes the Chern-Simons formulation of Yang-Mills anomalies to encompass all 4-dimensional superconformal anomalies. The key innovation is our characterization of anomalies…

We construct the Lax-pair, the classical monodromy matrix and the corresponding solution of the Yang--Baxter equation, for a two-parameter deformation of the Principal chiral model for a simple group. This deformation includes as a…

The conditions leading to a nontrivial renormalization of the topological charge in four--dimensional Yang--Mills theory are discussed. It is shown that if the topological term is regarded as the limit of a certain nontopological…

We build the bosonic $\eta$-deformed $AdS_4\times\mathbb{CP}^3$ background generated by an $r$-matrix that satisfies the modified classical Yang-Baxter equation. In a special limit we find that it is the gravity dual of the noncommutative…

We show that the four-dimensional Chern-Simons theory studied by Costello, Witten and Yamazaki, is, with Nahm pole-type boundary conditions, dual to a boundary theory that is a three-dimensional analogue of Toda theory with a novel 3d…

The sector of decay constants of the octet of light pseudoscalar mesons in the framework of 'resummed' $SU(3)$ chiral perturbation theory is investigated. A theoretical prediction for the decay constant of $\eta$-meson is compared to a…
