In this paper we present supersymmetric instanton and non-supersymmetric wormhole solutions for the universal hypermultiplet sector of $d=4$ N=2 supergravity theories. Instantons and wormholes are constructed as saddle points dominating…
We study how instantons arise in the low energy effective theory of the SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in the context of the non-linear sigma model recently propose by Faddeev and Niemi. We find a simple relation between the instanton number $\nu$…
Global symmetries can be generalised to transformations generated by topological operators, including cases in which the topological operator does not have an inverse. A family of such topological operators are intimately related to…
In all local low-dimensional models, scaling at critical points deviates from mean field behavior -- with one possible exception. This exceptional model with ``ordinary" behavior is an inherently non-equilibrium model studied some time ago…
We consider the Laplacian and its fractional powers of order less than one on the complement $\mathbb{R}^d\setminus\Sigma$ of a given compact set $\Sigma\subset \mathbb{R}^d$ of zero Lebesgue measure. Depending on the size of $\Sigma$, the…
The gauge dependence of the renormalization group functions of the Ginzburg-Landau model is investigated. The analysis is done by means of the Ward-Takahashi identities. After defining the local superconducting order parameter, it is shown…
We re-consider the quantum mechanics of scale invariant potentials in two dimensions. The breaking of scale invariance by quantum effects is analyzed by the explicit evaluation of the phase shift and the self-adjoint extension method. We…
We shall study the solvability of pseudodifferential operators which are not of principal type. The operator will have complex principal symbol satisfying condition ($\Psi$) and we shall consider the limits of semibicharacteristics at the…
The propagation of an initially localized excitation in one dimensional incommensurate, quasiperiodic and random systems is investigated numerically. It is discovered that the time evolution of variances $\sigma^2(t)$ of atom displacements…
We present a comprehensive discussion of renormalisation of 3-point functions of scalar operators in conformal field theories in general dimension. We have previously shown that conformal symmetry uniquely determines the momentum-space…
Nonlinear sigma models arise in supergravity theories with or without matter couplings in various dimensions and they are important in understanding the duality symmetries of M-theory. With this motivation in mind, we review the salient…
We deal with finite dimensional linear and nonlinear control systems. If the system is linear and autonomous and satisfies the classical normality assumption, we improve the well known result on the strict convexity of the reachable set…
The weak gravity conjecture has been invoked to conjecture that the dimensions of charged operators in a CFT should obey a superadditivity relation (sometimes referred to as convexity). In this paper, we study superadditivity of the…
Noncommutative U(1) gauge theory in 4-dimensions is shown to be equivalent in some scaling limit to an ordinary non-linear sigma model in 2-dimensions . The model in this regime is solvable and the corresponding exact beta function is…
This work consists of two parts. In the first part we construct the complete extension of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model by higher dimensional effective operators and study its phenomenology. These operators encapsulate the…
The dynamics of quantum fields become nonperturbative when their interactions are probed by a large number of particles. To explore this regime we study correlation functions which involve a large number of fields, focussing on massive…
Fenchel subdifferential operators of lower semicontinuous proper convex functions on real Banach spaces are classically characterized as those operators that are maximally cyclically monotone or, equivalently, maximally monotone and…
In non-Hermitian crystal systems under open boundary condition (OBC), it is generally believed that the OBC modes with frequencies containing positive imaginary parts, when excited by external driving, will experience exponential growth in…
We study instability of the lowest dimension operator (\it i.e., \rm the imaginary part of its operator dimension) in the rank-$Q$ traceless symmetric representation of the $O(N)$ Wilson-Fisher fixed point in $D=4+\epsilon$. We find a new…
We discuss the determination of the lowest Form Factors relative to the trace operators of N=1 Super Sinh-Gordon Model. Analytic continuations of these Form Factors as functions of the coupling constant allows us to study a series of models…
