The phase diagram of SO(3) lattice gauge theory is investigated by Monte Carlo techniques on both symmetric and asymmetric lattices with a view (i) to understanding the relationship between the bulk transition and the deconfinement…
The adjoint SU(2) lattice gauge theory in 3+1 dimensions with the Wilson plaquette action modified by a Z(2) monopole suppression term is reinvestigated with special emphasis on the existence of a finite-temperature phase transition…
We study the phases of the SU(N1)X SU(N2) gauge theory with a bi-fundamental fermion in 3+1 dimensions. We show that the discrete anomalies and Berry phases associated to the one-form symmetry of the theory allow for several topologically…
We consider one dimensional lattice gauge theories constructed by the minimal coupling prescription. It is shown that these theories are exactly solvable in the thermodynamic limit. After considering the most general case, we discuss some…
It is considered a dimensional reduction of Ue(1)xUg(1) 3+1-dimensional electromagnetism with a gauge field (photon) and a pseudo-vector gauge field (pseudo-photon) to 2+1-dimensions. In the absence of boundary effects, the quantum…
We study the low energy phase structure of SU(2) gauge theories in three-dimensional spacetime, at finite baryon density. The pseudoreality of representations of SU(2) permits an analytic study of a real baryon chemical potential, and the…
Building on quantum Monte Carlo simulations, we study the phase diagram of a one-parameter Hamiltonian interpolating between trivial and topological Ising paramagnets in two dimensions, which are dual to the toric code and the double…
The 4D compact U(1) gauge theory has a well-established phase transition between a confining and a Coulomb phase. In this paper, we revisit this model using state-of-the-art Monte Carlo simulations on anisotropic lattices. We map out the…
The dually transformed path integral of four-dimensional U(1) lattice gauge theory is used for the calculation of expectation values in the presence of external charges. Applying the dual simulation to flux tubes for charge distances up to…
We study the gauging of a global U(1) symmetry in a gapped system in (2+1)d. The gauging procedure has been well-understood for a finite global symmetry group, which leads to a new gapped phase with emergent gauge structure and can be…
Three dimensional supersymmetric gauge theories are often in a gapped phase, in which SUSY is spontaneously broken, if all the matter fields are massive and decoupled in the low energy. We study this phase in the large $N$ limit using the…
We investigate the phase diagram and the nature of the phase transitions in a three-dimensional model characterized by a global SU($N$) symmetry, a local U(1) symmetry, and the absence of monopoles. It represents a natural generalization of…
We discuss the conditions under which Higgs and confining regimes in gauge theories with fundamental representation matter fields can be sharply distinguished. It is widely believed that these regimes are smoothly connected unless they are…
A gauge invariant procedure for extracting combined SO(3)-Z2 monopoles in positive-plaquette SU(2) lattice gauge theory is shown. When these monopoles are eliminated through a constraint, the theory deconfines for all $\beta$ on $12^4$ and…
A detailed discussion is given of the disorder parameter for dual superconductivity of lattice gauge theories, introduced in a previous paper, and of its relation to other approaches. New lattice data are reported. Among other results, we…
Thermal fluctuations of the gauge field lead to monopole formation at the grand unified phase transition in the early Universe, even if the transition is merely a smooth crossover. The dependence of the produced monopole density on various…
U(1) gauge fields are decomposed into a monopole and photon part across the phase transition from the confinement to the Coulomb phase. We analyze the leading Lyapunov exponents of such gauge field configurations on the lattice which are…
We investigate Abelian monopoles and Abelian vortices condensation in finite temperature SU(2) and SU(3) pure lattice gauge theories.
We consider the 4d compact U(1) gauge theory with extended action S=-beta sum_P cos theta_P -gamma sum_P cos 2 theta_P We give a full characterization of the phase diagram of this model using the notion of flux. The relation with the usual…
Using the finite size scaling theory, we re-examine the nature of the bulk phase transition in the fundamental-adjoint coupling plane of the SU(2) lattice gauge theory at $\beta_A = 1.25$ where previous finite size scaling investigations of…
