An effective Hamiltonian for the study of the quantum Hall effect is proposed. This Hamiltonian, which includes a ``current-current" interaction has the form of a Hamiltonian for a conformal field theory in the large $N$ limit. An order…

We use chiral perturbation theory to investigate hadronic properties in strong electric and magnetic fields. A strong-field power counting is employed, and results for pions and nucleons are obtained using Schwinger's proper-time method. In…

Sutherland's theorem dictates that the contribution of the electromagnetic interaction to the decay process (\eta\rightarrow 3\pi^{0}) is neglected with respect to the one coming from the difference between the up and down quark masses. In…

We develop a non-relativistic quantum field theory of electrons and nuclei based on the Coulomb Hamiltonian. We derive the exact equations of motion and write these equations in the form of Hedin's equations for all species of identical…

We examine a paradox, suggested by Banks and Dabholkar, concerning nonperturbative effects in an effective field theory which is obtained by integrating out a generation of heavy fermions, where the heavy fermion masses arise from Yukawa…

Starting with the modified Dirac equations for free massive particles with the $\gamma_5$-extension of the physical mass $m\rightarrow m_1 + \gamma_5 m_2$, we consider equations of relativistic quantum mechanics in the presence of an…

We study the quantum corrections to the polarizability of isolated metallic mesoscopic systems using the loop-expansion in diffusive propagators. We show that the difference between connected (grand-canonical ensemble) and isolated…

In this thesis we deal with different aspects of quantum field theory, particularly in non-perturbative but also perturbative regimes, applied to the intellectual construction that is the Standard Model for Particle Physics (SM), but also…

The spontaneous disentanglement hypothesis is motivated by some outstanding issues in standard quantum mechanics, including the problem of quantum measurement. The current study compares between some possible methods that can be used to…

I review the effective field theory (EFT) description of gravitating compact objects. The focus is on kinematic regimes where gravity is perturbative, in particular the adiabatic inspiral phase relevant to gravitational wave detection. For…

There are problems with defining the thermodynamic limit of systems with long-range interactions; as a result, the thermodynamic behavior of these types of systems is anomalous. In the present work, we review some concepts from both…

The quantum field theory in the presence of classical background electromagnetic fields is reviewed. We give a pedagogical introduction to the Feynman-Furry method of describing non-perturbative interactions with very strong electromagnetic…

In the strong electron-electron (e-e) interaction limit each atomic site is constrained to be either empty or singly occupied. One can treat this scenario by fractionalizing the electrons into spin and charge degrees of freedom. We use the…

We study the low-temperature properties of a spin-\onehalf\ magnetic impurity coupled to a one-dimensional interacting electron system. Using the newly developed formalism by Affleck and Ludwig, with a scale invariant boundary condition…

We propose a new mechanism which can lead to ferromagnetism in Hubbard models containing triangles with different on-site energies. It is based on an effective Hamiltonian that we derive in the strong coupling limit. Considering a…

In this work we use the framework of effective field theory to couple Einstein's gravity to scalar electrodynamics and determine the renormalization of the model through the study of physical processes below Planck scale, a realm where…

A quantal guiding center theory allowing to systematically study the separation of the different time scale behaviours of a quantum charged spinning particle moving in an external inhomogeneous magnetic filed is presented. A suitable set of…

We study the Yukawa model with one scalar and one axial scalar fields, coupled to $N$ copies of Dirac fermions, in curved spacetime background. The theory possesses a reach set of coupling constants, including the scalar terms with odd…

Dualities between quantum field theories have proven to be a powerful tool in various areas of physics. In this paper, we introduce a new perspective for obtaining strong coupling expansions based on a well-known technique -- the…

By modeling a dielectric medium with two independent reservoirs, i.e., electric and magnetic reservoirs, the electromagnetic field is quantized in a linear dielectric medium consistently. A Hamiltonian is proposed from which using the…
