In the first purpose, we concentrate on the theory of quantum integrable systems underlying the Connes-Kreimer approach. We introduce a new family of Hamiltonian systems depended on the perturbative renormalization process in renormalizable…
A framework allowing for perturbative calculations to be carried out for quantum field theories with arbitrary smoothly curved boundaries is described. It is based on an expansion of the heat kernel derived earlier for arbitrary mixed…
In this article, we introduce a systematic and uniform construction of non-singular plane curves of odd degrees $n \geq 5$ which violate the local-global principle. Our construction works unconditionally for $n$ divisible by $p^2$ for some…
We study complex Chern-Simons theory on a Seifert manifold $M_3$ by embedding it into string theory. We show that complex Chern-Simons theory on $M_3$ is equivalent to a topologically twisted supersymmetric theory and its partition function…
A brief review of a self-contained genuinely three-dimensional monodromy-matrix based non-perturbative covariant path-integral approach to {\it polynomial invariants} of knots and links in the framework of (topological) quantum Chern-Simons…
We revisit electric and magnetic surface charges and edge modes in four-dimensional Maxwell theory and QED on a spacetime with a finite spatial boundary. Using the S-wall, which implements electromagnetic duality, we clarify the dual…
Recently, we have developed a formalism to evaluate QCD loop diagrams with a single virtual gluon using a running coupling constant at the vertices. This corresponds to an all-order resummation of certain terms (the so-called renormalon…
We extend the finite-distance Jacobi-metric Gauss-Bonnet framework of Li \textit{et al}. [10.1103/PhysRevD.101.124058] to massive test particles carrying intrinsic spin. At pole-dipole order, the Mathisson-Papapetrou-Dixon dynamics…
One solution to a relatively recent American Mathematical Monthly problem [6], requesting the evaluation of a real definite integral, could be couched in terms of a contour integral which vanishes {\textit{a priori.}} While the required…
Spatial symmetries can enrich the topological classification of interacting quantum matter and endow systems with non-trivial strong topological invariants (protected by internal symmetries) with additional "weak" topological indices. In…
We study quantum mechanical systems with a discrete spectrum. We show that the asymptotic series associated to certain paths of steepest-descent (Lefschetz thimbles) are Borel resummable to the full result. Using a geometrical approach…
We elaborate on the resurgence analysis on the $T\overline{T}$-deformed 2d conformal field theory (CFT). Writing the deformed partition function as an infinite series in the deformation parameter $\lambda$, we develop efficient analytical…
We show that partition function of Chern-Simons theory on three-sphere with classical and exceptional groups (actually on the whole corresponding lines in Vogel's plane) can be represented as ratio of respectively triple and double sine…
We introduce tropical scalar field theory as a model for renormalizable quantum field theory, and examine in detail the case of quartic self-interaction and internal $O(N)$ symmetry. This model arises in a formally zero-dimensional limit of…
We perform a series of dimensional reductions of the 6d, $\mathcal{N}=(2,0)$ SCFT on $S^2\times\Sigma\times I\times S^1$ down to 2d on $\Sigma$. The reductions are performed in three steps: (i) a reduction on $S^1$ (accompanied by a…
Topological superconductors are characterized by topological invariants that describe the number and nature of their robust boundary modes. These invariants must also have observable consequences in the bulk of the system, akin to the…
We show that classical, non-supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories coupled to spin-1/2 and spin-0 elementary matter fields, in (3+1)-dimensional Minkowski space-time, possess exact structures that resemble integrability, with an infinite number…
We study Dirichlet-type problems for the simplest third-order linear dispersive PDE, often referred to as the Airy equation. Such problems have not been extensively studied, perhaps due to the complexity of the spectral structure of the…
We investigate the shrinking target and recurrence set associated to non-autonomous measure-preserving systems on compact metric spaces, establishing zero-one criteria in the spirit of classical Borel-Cantelli results. Our first main…
We present a broad conceptual introduction to some new ideas in non-perturbative QFT. The large-$N$ orbifold-orientifold equivalence connects a natural large-$N$ limit of QCD to QCD with adjoint fermions. QCD(adj) with periodic boundary…
