BCF anomaly and higher-group structure in the low energy effective theories of mesons
We discuss the BCF anomaly of massless QCD-like theories, first obtained by Anber and Poppitz, from the viewpoint of the low energy effective theories.

We study the phase diagrams of the bifundamental QCD (QCD(BF)) of different ranks, which is the 4d SU(N 1) × SU(N 2) gauge theory coupled with a bifundamental Dirac fermion. After discussing the anomaly constraints on possible vacuum structures, we apply

’t Hooft anomalies and the holomorphy of supersymmetric partition functions
We study the dependence of supersymmetric partition functions on continuous parameters for the flavor symmetry group, G F , for 2d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = (0, 2) and 4d N $$ \mathcal{N} $$ = 1 supersymmetric quantum field theories.

ABSTRACT We present a two‐dimensional, high‐resolution full‐waveform inversion approach of crosshole seismic data to image fine glacial sediments in an overdeepened Alpine valley, the Tannwald Basin (ICDP site 5068_1) north of Lake Constance. A vertically polarizing shear‐wave source is employed to excite elastic waves, which are recorded by an eight ...

ABSTRACT This article examines the relationship between economic elites and civil society by analysing the appointments of corporate elites to the boards of charitable companies in the UK. Whilst previous research has usually focused on who among the corporate elite hold positions in key civil society organisations, and the extent to which these ...

Abstract Despite growing recognition of the interconnectedness between climate change and modern slavery within supply chains, these issues are often studied in isolation, leading to a fragmented understanding of their relationship. This research aims to bridge this gap by investigating the key factors in supply chains that influence both climate ...

Anomalies and Invertible Field Theories [PDF]
We give a modern geometric viewpoint on anomalies in quantum field theory and illustrate it in a 1-dimensional theory: supersymmetric quantum mechanics. This is background for the resolution of worldsheet anomalies in orientifold superstring theory.

Quantum mechanical path integrals in curved spaces and the type-A trace anomaly
Path integrals for particles in curved spaces can be used to compute trace anomalies in quantum field theories, and more generally to study properties of quantum fields coupled to gravity in first quantization.

String corrections to circular Wilson loop and anomalies [PDF]
We study string quantum corrections to the ratio of latitude and circular Wilson loops in N=4 super-Yang-Mills theory at strong coupling. Conformal gauge for the corresponding minimal surface in AdS(5)xS(5) is singular and we show that an IR anomaly associated with the divergence in the conformal factor removes previously reported discrepancy with the ...

Contested parenting and its affective economies: A commentary
Abstract In stringing together the fine‐grained ethnographic studies that comprise this special issue of Ethos, “Contested Parenting. Experts, Audiences, Selves,” our commentary is designed to go beyond the micro‐setting of daily routines to the emotional entanglements of family relationships within wider economic and political networks. Calling on the
