Simplified path integral for supersymmetric quantum mechanics and type-A trace anomalies
Particles in a curved space are classically described by a nonlinear sigma model action that can be quantized through path integrals. The latter require a precise regularization to deal with the derivative interactions arising from the nonlinear kinetic ...

A SymTFT for continuous symmetries
Symmetry is a powerful tool for studying dynamics in QFT: it provides selection rules, constrains RG flows, and often simplifies analysis. Currently, our understanding is that the most general form of symmetry is described by categorical symmetries which

Exploring 2-group global symmetries
We analyze four-dimensional quantum field theories with continuous 2-group global symmetries. At the level of their charges, such symmetries are identical to a product of continuous flavor or spacetime symmetries with a 1-form global symmetry U(1) B (1) ,

TASI 2003 Lectures on Anomalies [PDF]
These lecture notes review the structure of anomalies and present some of their applications in field theory, string theory and M theory. They expand on material presented at the TASI 2003 summer school and the 2005 International Spring School on String Theory in Hangzhou, China.

Abstract This study explores the intricate strategic implications of digital transformation for large established organisations operating within dynamic environments. While digital transformation has garnered substantial attention in the context of startups, large established organisations face unique challenges in balancing existing capabilities with ...

Reformulating the Critique of Human Capital Theory
ABSTRACT Despite criticism, human capital theory (HCT) has remained central for six decades to the teaching and practice of economics. This paper reformulates the critique of HCT, focusing on two aspects that are typically relegated to the margin.

Anomaly enforced gaplessness and symmetry fractionalization for Spin G symmetries
Symmetries and their anomalies give strong constraints on renormalization group (RG) flows of quantum field theories. Recently, the identification of a theory’s global symmetries with its topological sector has provided additional constraints on RG flows

Biocentric Work in the Anthropocene: How Actors Regenerate Degenerated Natural Commons
Abstract As natural commons vital to selves, organizations, and institutions collapse under cumulative anthropogenic pressures, can human agency still reverse some of the damage already done? This article explores how emerging forms of social symbolic work regenerate degenerated natural commons.

Abstract This study explores the often‐overlooked political dimension of social enterprises, particularly their advocacy activities aimed at influencing public policy, legislation, norms, attitudes, and behaviour. While traditional management research has focused on commercial activity and the beneficiary‐oriented aspects of social enterprises, this ...
