When ℤ2 one-form symmetry leads to non-invertible axial symmetries

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We study non-abelian gauge theories with fermions in a representation such that the surviving electric 1-form symmetry is ℤ2. This includes SU(N) gauge theories with matter in the (anti)symmetric and N even, and USp(2N) with a Weyl fermion in the adjoint,

Gauge Freedom in Path Integrals in Abelian Gauge Theory

open access: yes, 2015
We extend gauge symmetry of Abelian gauge field to incorporate quantum gauge degrees of freedom. We twice apply the Harada--Tsutsui gauge recovery procedure to gauge-fixed theories.

Embedding Flipped SU(5) into SO(10) [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
We embed the flipped SU(5) models into the SO(10) models. After the SO(10) gauge symmetry is broken down to the flipped SU(5) \times U(1)_X gauge symmetry, we can split the five/one-plets and ten-plets in the spinor \mathbf{16} and \mathbf{\bar{16 ...

Gauge theories on the noncommutative sphere [PDF]

open access: yes, 1997
Gauge theories are formulated on the noncommutative two-sphere. These theories have only finite number of degrees of freedom, nevertheless they exhibit both the gauge symmetry and the SU(2) "Poincar\'e" symmetry of the sphere. In particular, the coupling

Hidden Gauge Symmetries: A New Possibility at the Colliders

open access: yes, 2005
We consider a new physics possibility at the colliders: the observation of TeV scale massive vector bosons in the non-adjoint representations under the Standard Model (SM) gauge symmetry. To have a unitary and renormalizable theory, we propose a class of

Nonliquid cellular states: Gluing gauge-higher-symmetry-breaking versus gauge-higher-symmetry-extension interfacial defects

open access: yesPhysical Review Research, 2022
The existence of quantum nonliquid states and fracton orders, both gapped and gapless states, challenges our understanding of phases of entangled matter. We generalize the cellular topological states to liquid or nonliquid cellular states.

Chiral gauge theories on the lattice without gauge fixing?

open access: yes, 1993
We discuss two proposals for a non-perturbative formulation of chiral gauge theories on the lattice. In both cases gauge symmetry is broken by the regularization. We aim at a dynamical restoration of symmetry.

Non-invertible symmetries from discrete gauging and completeness of the spectrum

open access: yesJournal of High Energy Physics, 2023
We study global 1- and (d − 2)-form symmetries for gauge theories based on disconnected gauge groups which include charge conjugation. For pure gauge theories, the 1-form symmetries are shown to be non-invertible.

Reducible Stueckelberg symmetry and dualities

open access: yesPhysics Letters B, 2021
We propose a general procedure for iterative inclusion of Stueckelberg fields to convert the theory into gauge system being equivalent to the original one. In so doing, we admit reducibility of the Stueckelberg gauge symmetry.

Exploring Residual Gauge Symmetry Breaking [PDF]

open access: yes, 2006
Simulations of pure-gauge SU(2) lattice gauge theory are performed in the minimal Coulomb gauge. This leaves a residual or remnant gauge symmetry still active which is global in three directions but still local in one.
