Charged hadrons in local finite-volume QED+QCD with C* boundary conditions
Biagio Lucini, Agostino Patella, Alberto Ramos +1
In order to calculate QED corrections to hadronic physical quantities by means of lattice simulations, a coherent description of electrically-charged states in finite volume is nee…
Space-time symmetries and the Yang-Mills gradient flow
Luigi Del Debbio, Agostino Patella, Antonio Rago
The recent introduction of the gradient flow has provided a new tool to probe the dynamics of quantum field theories. The latest developments have shown how to use the gradient flo…
QCD With A Chemical Potential, Topology, And The 't Hooft 1/N Expansion
Adi Armoni, Agostino Patella
We discuss the dependence of observables on the chemical potential in 't Hooft's large-N QCD. To this end we use the worldline formalism to expand the fermionic determinant in powe…
GMOR-like relation in IR-conformal gauge theories
Agostino Patella
A generalization of the GMOR relation to the case of infrared-conformal gauge theories is discussed. The starting point is the chiral Ward identity connecting the isovector pseudos…
k-String tensions and the 1/N expansion
Jeff Greensite, Biagio Lucini, Agostino Patella
We address the question of whether the large-N expansion in pure SU(N) gauge theories requires that k-string tensions must have a power series expansion in 1/N^2, as in the sine la…
Domain Walls and Metastable Vacua in Hot Orientifold Field Theories
Adi Armoni, Chris P. Korthals Altes, Agostino Patella
We consider "Orientifold field theories", namely SU(N) gauge theories with Dirac fermions in the two-index representation at high temperature. When N is even these theories exhibit…
