Electric - magnetic duality, monopole condensation, and confinement in N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory [PDF]
We study the vacuum structure and don spectrum of N =2 supersymmetric gauge theory in four dimensions, with gauge group SU(2). The theory turns out to have remarkably rich and physical properties which can nonetheless be described precisely; exact ...

Quantum Confinement and Electronic Structure at the Surface of van der Waals Ferroelectric α-In2Se3. [PDF]
Two-dimensional (2D) ferroelectric (FE) materials are promising compounds for next-generation nonvolatile memories due to their low energy consumption and high endurance. Among them, α-In2Se3 has drawn particular attention due to its in- and out-of-plane

Dynamical fermions, centre vortices, and emergent phenomena [PDF]
The non-trivial ground-state vacuum fields of QCD form the foundation of matter. Here we examine the centre vortices identified within the ground-state fields of lattice QCD.

Vacuum structure of bifundamental gauge theories at finite topological angles [PDF]
A bstractWe discuss possible vacuum structures of SU(n) × SU(n) gauge theories with bifundamental matters at finite θ angles. In order to give a precise constraint, a mixed ’t Hooft anomaly is studied in detail by gauging the center ℤn one-form symmetry ...

Center vortex and confinement in Yang-Mills theory and QCD with anomaly-preserving compactifications [PDF]
We construct an anomaly-preserving compactification of 4d gauge theories, including SU(N) Yang-Mills theory, N = 1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory, and QCD, down to 2d by turning on ’t Hooft flux through T 2.

The chiral condensate of N f = 2 + 1 QCD from the spectrum of the staggered Dirac operator
We compute the chiral condensate of 2 + 1 QCD from the mode number of the staggered Dirac operator, performing controlled extrapolations to both the continuum and the chiral limit.

Vacuum structure and gravitational bags produced by metric-independent space–time volume-form dynamics [PDF]
We propose a new class of gravity-matter theories, describing R + R2 gravity interacting with a nonstandard nonlinear gauge field system and a scalar “dilaton,” formulated in terms of two different non-Riemannian volume-forms (generally covariant ...
