Duality and Superconvergence Relation in Supersymmetric Gauge Theories
We investigate the phase structures of various N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories including even the exceptional gauge group from the viewpoint of superconvergence of the gauge field propagator.

String Geometry and the Noncommutative Torus [PDF]
We construct a new gauge theory on a pair of d-dimensional noncommutative tori. The latter comes from an intimate relationship between the noncommutative geometry associated with a lattice vertex operator algebra A and the noncommutative torus.

Dualities in Supersymmetric Field Theories
Lectures presented at the 33rd Karpacz Winter School ``Duality: Strings and Fields'' briefly introducing dualities in four-dimensional quantum field theory, and summarizing results found in supersymmetric field theories.

Holographic models of de Sitter QFTs [PDF]
We describe the dynamics of strongly coupled field theories in de Sitter spacetime using the holographic gauge/gravity duality. The main motivation for this is to explore the possibility of dynamical phase transitions during cosmological evolution ...

Dualities of self-dual nonlinear electrodynamics
For any causal nonlinear electrodynamics theory that is “self-dual” (electromagnetic U(1)-duality invariant), the Legendre-dual pair of Lagrangian and Hamiltonian densities L H $$ \left\{\mathcal{L},\mathcal{H}\right\} $$ are constructed from functions ℓ

Topological dualities in the Ising model [PDF]
We relate two classical dualities in low-dimensional quantum field theory: Kramers-Wannier duality of the Ising and related lattice models in $2$ dimensions, with electromagnetic duality for finite gauge theories in $3$ dimensions.

Conformality and Gauge Coupling Unification [PDF]
It has been recently proposed to embed the standard model in a conformal gauge theory to resolve the hierarchy problem, and to avoid assuming either grand unification or low-energy supersymmetry.

Causality and energy conditions in nonlinear electrodynamics
For the general theory of nonlinear electrodynamics (NLED) we prove that causality implies both the Dominant Energy Condition (DEC) and, surprisingly, the Strong Energy Condition (SEC).

4d N = 1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ from 6d (1, 0)
We study the geometry of 4d N = 1 $$ \mathcal{N}=1 $$ SCFT’s arising from compactification of 6d (1, 0) SCFT’s on a Riemann surface. We show that the conformal manifold of the resulting theory is characterized, in addition to moduli of complex structure ...

We investigate self-dualities in three-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theories. The electric and magnetic theories share the same gauge group. The examples include $SU(2N)$, $SO(7)$ and $SO(8)$ with various matter contents.
