We study various properties of a nonperturbative partition function which can be associated to any spectral curve. When the spectral curve arises from a matrix model, this nonperturbative partition function is given by a sum of matrix…
Perturbation theory in quantum mechanics studies how quantum systems interact with their environmental perturbations. Harmonic perturbation is a rare special case of time-dependent perturbations in which exact analysis exists. Some…
We investigate the dynamics of a classical mechanical oscillator coupled to the simplest quantum system, a single qubit. Using the Feynman-Vernon influence functional formalism, we show that the qubit's influence manifests as both…
Boundary effects in quantum mechanics are examined by considering a partition wall inserted at the centre of a harmonic oscillator system. We put an equal number of particles on both sides of the impenetrable wall keeping the system under…
The behavior of a collection of identical particles is intimately linked to the symmetries of their wavefunction under particle exchange. Topological anyons, arising as quasiparticles in low-dimensional systems, interpolate between bosons…
Non-Hermitian systems as theoretical models of open or dissipative systems exhibit rich novel physical properties and fundamental issues in condensed matter physics.We propose a generalized local-global correspondence between the…
We study inelastic vibration-assisted charge transfer effects in two-site molecular junctions, focusing on signatures of vibrational anharmonicity on the electrical characteristics and the thermoelectric response of the junction. We…
We study the many-body ground states of SU($N$) symmetric hardcore bosons on the topological flat-band model by using controlled numerical calculations. By introducing strong intracomponent and intercomponent interactions, we demonstrate…
We calculate the topological string partition function to all genus on the conifold, in the presence of branes. We demonstrate that the partition functions for different brane backgrounds (smoothly connected along a quantum corrected moduli…
An effective action for the bulk dynamics of quantum Hall effect in arbitrary even spatial dimensions was obtained some time ago in terms of a Chern-Simons term associated with the Dolbeault index theorem. Here we explore further properties…
The goal of these lectures is to exhibit the framing anomaly in the Batalin-Vilkovisky formulation of perturbative Chern-Simons theory. Concretely, we show that the partition function fails to satisfy the Quantum Master Equation, and show…
Qualitatively different systems of molecular energy bands are studied on example of a parametric family of effective Hamiltonians describing rotational structure of triply degenerate vibrational state of a cubic symmetry molecule. The…
We propose to describe bulk wave functions of fractional quantum Hall states in terms of correlators of non-unitary b/c-spin systems. These yield a promising conformal field theory analogon of the composite fermion picture of Jain.…
We extend the Chern-Simons perturbative invariant of Axelrod and Singer to non-acyclic connections. We construct a solution of the quantum master equation on the space of functions on the cohomology of the connection. We prove that this…
A family of quantum anharmonic oscillators is studied in any finite spatial dimension in the scheme of first quantization and the investigation of their eigenenergies is presented. The statistical properties of the calculated eigenenergies…
A quantum field theory is referred to as bosonic (non-spin) if its physical quantities are independent of the spacetime spin structure, and as fermionic (spin) if they depend on it. We explore fermionic conformal field theories (CFTs) that…
We study a wide class of topological free-fermion systems on a hypercubic lattice in spatial dimensions $d\ge 1$. When the Fermi level lies in a spectral gap or a mobility gap, the topological properties, e.g., the integral quantization of…
We show that recent experiments in hybrid qubit-oscillator devices that measure the phase-space characteristic function of the oscillator via the qubit can be seen through the lens of functional calculus and path integrals, drawing a clear…
We study the effects of dissipation and decoherence induced on a harmonic oscillator by the coupling to a chaotic system with two degrees of freedom. Using the Feynman-Vernon approach and treating the chaotic system semiclassically we show…
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…
