A version of the classical Vieta theorem for free noncommuting variables is given. It leads to a new start in a construction of noncommutative symmetric functions

The relationship between 2D $SO(2,1)$ conformal anomalies in nonrelativistic systems and the virial expansion is explored using recently developed path-integral methods. In the process, the Beth-Uhlenbeck formula for the shift of the second…

We derive thermodynamic Bethe ansatz equations describing the vacuum energy of the SU(2N)/Sp(N) nonlinear sigma model on a cylinder geometry. The starting points are the recently-proposed amplitudes for the scattering among the physical,…

The effective potential of the $O(N)$ model at large $N$ limit is reinvestigated with varying pion mass and temperature. For large pion masses and high temperatures, we find the phenomenologically favored vacuum, located on the upper branch…

A systematic study of large N expansion in supersymmetric theories are given. Supersymmetric O(N) non-linear sigma model in two and three dimensions, massless and massive supersymmetric QCD with $N_{f}<N_{c}-1$ and supergravity models are…

Given $\beta\in\mathbb{R}$ and $\varrho,k>0$, we analyze an abstract version of the nonlinear stationary model in dimensionless form $$\begin{cases} u"" - \Big(\beta+ \varrho\int_0^1 |u'(s)|^2\,{\rm d} s\Big)u" +k(u-v) = 0 v"" - \Big(\beta+…

We study the O(N) vector model and the U(N) Gross-Neveu model with fixed total fermion number, in three dimensions. Using non-trivial polylogarithmic identities, we calculate the large-N renormalized free-energy density of these models, at…

In this work we obtain the planar free energy for the Hermitian one-matrix model with various choices of the potential. We accomplish this by applying an approach that bypasses the usual diagonalization of the matrices and the introduction…

A general form factor formula for the $O(N)\sigma$-model is constructed and applied to several operators. The large N limits of these form factors are computed and compared with the 1/N expansion of the $O(N)\sigma$-model in terms of…

We discuss exact results for the full nonperturbative effective superpotentials of four dimensional $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric U(N) gauge theories with additional chiral superfield in the adjoint representation and the free energies of…

Systems with many interacting stochastic constituents are fully characterized by their free energy. Computing this quantity is therefore the objective of various approaches, notably perturbative expansions, which are applied in problems…

The ground-state energy of integrably-twisted theories is analyzed in finite volume. We derive the leading and next-to-leading order (NLO) L\"uscher-type corrections for large volumes of the vacuum energy for integrable theories with…

We have performed a high statistics Monte Carlo simulation to investigate whether the two-dimensional O(n) non-linear sigma models are asymptotically free or they show a Kosterlitz- Thouless-like phase transition. We have calculated the…

We study continuity, and lack thereof, of thermodynamical properties for one-dimensional dynamical systems. Under quite general hypotheses, the free energy is shown to be almost upper-semicontinuous: some normalised component of a limit…

We show that two-dimensional sigma models are equivalent to certain perturbed conformal field theories. When the fields in the sigma model take values in a space G/H for a group G and a maximal subgroup H, the corresponding conformal field…

The O(n) nonlinear sigma model in 1+1 dimensions is examined as quantum mechanics on an infinite-dimensional configuration space. Two metrics are defined in this space. One of these metrics is the same as Feynman's distance, but we show his…

We analyze chiral restoration within the $O(N+1)/O(N)$ Non-Linear Sigma Model for large $N$ as an effective theory for low-energy QCD at finite temperature $T$. The free energy is constructed diagramatically to ${\cal O}(TM^3)$ in the pion…

We consider the effective potential in three-dimensional models with O(N) symmetry. For generic values of N, and in particular for the physically interesting cases N=0,1,2,3, we determine the six-point and eight-point renormalized coupling…

We elucidate the large-N dynamics of one-dimensional sigma models with spherical and hyperbolic target spaces and find a duality between the Lagrange multiplier and the angular momentum. In the hyperbolic model we propose a new class of…

In this article, we introduce the concept of energy-variational solutions for a large class of systems of nonlinear evolutionary partial differential equations. Under certain convexity assumptions, the existence of such solutions can be…
