In 3+1 space-time dimensions, fourth order derivative gravity is perturbatively renormalizable. Here it is shown that it describes a unitary theory of gravitons (with/without an additional scalar) in a limited coupling parameter space which…
The Discrete Light-Cone Quantization (DLCQ) of a supersymmetric SU(N) gauge theory in 1+1 dimensions is discussed, with particular emphasis given to the inclusion of all dynamical zero modes. Interestingly, the notorious `zero-mode problem'…
The Discrete Light-Cone Quantization (DLCQ) of a supersymmetric gauge theory in 1+1 dimensions is discussed, with particular attention given to the inclusion of the gauge zero mode. Interestingly, the notorious `zero-mode' problem is now…
We present an overview of the Density Matrix Renormalization Group and its connections to Quantum Groups, Matrix Products and Conformal Field Theory. We emphasize some common formal structures in all these theories. We also propose…
We discuss non-renormalization theorems applying to galileon field theories and their generalizations. Galileon theories are similar in many respects to other derivatively coupled effective field theories, including general relativity and…
We investigate the phase structure and the infrared properties of higher-derivative quantum gravity (QG) with matter, in $4-\varepsilon$ dimensions. The renormalization group (RG) equations in $4-\varepsilon$ dimensions are analysed for the…
We study the mixing of operators under renormalization group flow in quantum theories, and prove a non-renormalization theorem at non-linear order. It dictates zeros up to a certain number of loops in anomalous dimension tensors that…
A genuine continuum treatment of the massive \phi^4_{1+1}-theory in light-cone quantization is proposed. Fields are treated as operator valued distributions thereby leading to a mathematically well defined handling of ultraviolet and light…
We conjecture that the discrete light-cone quantization (DLCQ) of strings on the maximally supersymmetric type IIB plane-wave background in the sector with J units of light-cone momentum is a supersymmetric 0+1 dimensional U(J) gauge theory…
We classify the local, polynomial, unitary gauge theories that violate Lorentz symmetry explicitly at high energies and are renormalizable by weighted power counting. We study the structure of such theories and prove that renormalization…
We propose a way to recover Lorentz invariance of the perturbative S matrix in the Discrete Light-Cone Quantization (DLCQ) in the continuum limit without spoiling the trivial vacuum.
Recently \REF\dk{Simon Dalley and Igor Klebanov,'Light Cone Quantization of the $c=2$ Matrix Model', PUPT-1333, hepth@xxx/920705} \refend Dalley and Klebanov proposed a light-cone quantized study of the $c=2$ matrix model, but which ignores…
Recent work on the numerical solution of supersymmetric gauge theories is described. The method used is SDLCQ (supersymmetric discrete light-cone quantization). An application to N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory in 2+1 dimensions at…
A manifestly supersymmetric nonperturbative matrix regularization for a twisted version of N=(8,8) theory on a curved background (a two-sphere) is constructed. Both continuum and the matrix regularization respect four exact scalar…
I study some aspects of the renormalization of quantum field theories with infinitely many couplings in arbitrary space-time dimensions. I prove that when the space-time manifold admits a metric of constant curvature the propagator is not…
M(atrix) theory is known to be mass-deformed in the pp-wave background and still retains all 16 dynamical supersymmetries. We consider generalization of such deformations on super Yang-Mills quantum mechanics (SYQM) with less supersymmetry.…
Very high energy physics needs a coherent description of the four fundamental forces. Non-commutative geometry is a promising mathematical framework which already allowed to unify the general relativity and the standard model, at the…
Layer normalization (LN) is a ubiquitous technique in deep learning but our theoretical understanding to it remains elusive. This paper investigates a new theoretical direction for LN, regarding to its nonlinearity and representation…
We study the Lorentz and Dirac algebra, including antisymmetric $\epsilon$ tensors and the $\gamma_5$ matrix, in implicit gauge-invariant regularization/renormalization methods defined in fixed integer dimensions. They include constrained…
We consider the most general loop integral that appears in non-relativistic effective field theories with no light particles. The divergences of this integral are in correspondence with simple poles in the space of complex space-time…
