3D electroweak sphalerons on the lattice are used as test configurations for definitions of various topological defects. In the maximally Abelian gauge they are shown to contain a symmetric array of Abelian monopoles and anti-monopoles…

Real time evolution of classical gauge fields is relevant for a number of applications in particle physics and cosmology, ranging from the early Universe to dynamics of quark-gluon plasma. We present a lattice formulation of the interaction…

We perform the Monte Carlo study of the SU(3) non-Abelian Higgs model. We discuss phase structure and non-Abelian vortices by gauge invariant operators. External magnetic fields induce non-Abelian vortices in the color-flavor locked phase.…

We consider the role that gauge symmetry breaking terms play on the continuum limit of gauge theories in three dimensions. As a paradigmatic example we consider scalar electrodynamics in which $N_f$ complex scalar fields interact with a…

A generalization of Wilsonian lattice gauge theory may be obtained by considering the possible self-adjoint extensions of the electric field operator in the Hamiltonian formalism. In the special case of 3D $\mathrm{U}(1)$ gauge theory these…

The presence of magnetic monopole like excitations of nonabelian varieties is one of the subtlest consequences of spontaneously broken gauge symmetries. Important hints about their quantum mechanical properties, which remained long…

Exact loop-variables formulation of pure gauge lattice QCD_3 is derived from the Wilson version of the model. The observation is made that the resulting model is two-dimensional. This significant feature is shown to be a unique property of…

We study vortex unbinding for the classical two-dimensional XY model in a magnetic field on square and triangular lattices. A renormalization group analysis combined with duality in the model shows that at high temperature and high field,…

We study the birational geometry of some moduli spaces of abelian varieties with extra structure: in particular, with a symmetric theta structure and an odd theta characteristic. For a $(d_1,d_2)$-polarized abelian surface, we show how the…

We study the quantum phases of bosons with repulsive contact interactions on a two-leg ladder in the presence of a uniform Abelian gauge field. The model realizes many interesting states, including Meissner phases, vortex-fluids,…

An $S$-matrix is proposed for the two dimensional O(3) $\sigma$-model with a dynamical $\theta$-term (axion model). Exploiting an Abelian T-duality transformation connecting the axion model to an integrable SU(2)$\times$U(1) symmetric…

The essential features of the high-temperature electroweak phase transition are contained in a three-dimensional super-renormalizable effective field theory. We calculate the exact counterterms needed for lattice simulations of the…

We show that the incompressible Euler equations in three spatial dimensions can be expressed in terms of an abelian gauge theory with a topological BF term. A crucial part of the theory is a 3-form field strength, which is dual to a…

We consider an Abelian Gauge Theory in R4 equipped with the Minkowski metric. This theory leads to a system of equations, the Klein-Gordon- Maxwell equations, which provide models for the interaction between the electromagnetic field and…

We complete the formulation of the equations of motion of a non-Abelian gauge field coupled to fermions on a finite-element lattice in four space-time dimensions. This is accomplished by a straightforward iterative approach, in which…

I propose a self-dual deformation of the classical phase space of lattice Yang--Mills theory, in which both the electric and magnetic fluxes take value in the gauge Lie group. A local construction of the deformed phase space requires the…

We study the spontaneously broken phase of the $XY$ model in three dimensions, with boundary conditions enforcing the presence of a vortex line. Comparing Monte Carlo and field theoretic determinations of the magnetization and energy…

We consider a three-dimensional lattice model consisting of layers of vertex models coupled with interlayer interactions. For a particular non-trivial interlayer interaction between charge-conserving vertex models and using a transfer…

We study an effective field theory of a vortex lattice in a two-dimensional neutral rotating superfluid. Utilizing particle-vortex dualities, we explore its formulation in terms of a $U(1)$ gauge theory coupled to elasticity, that at low…

We construct the creation operator of a vortex using the methods developed for monopoles. The vacuum expectation value of this operator is interpreted as a disorder parameter describing vortex condensation and is studied numerically on a…
