Toric code-like models from the parameter space of lattice gauge theories
Miguel Jorge Bernabe Ferreira, Pramod Padmanabhan, Paulo Teotonio-Sobrinho
A state sum construction on closed manifolds á la Kuperberg can be used to construct the partition functions of lattice gauge theories based on involutory Hopf algebras, $\mat…
Quantum Physics and Fluctuating Topologies: Survey
M. Asorey, A. P. Balachandran, G. Marmo +4
The spin-statistics connection, quantum gravity and other physical considerations suggest that classical space-time topology is not an immutable attribute and can change in quantum…
Quasi-Topological Quantum Field Theories and Lattice Gauge Theories
Miguel J. B. Ferreira, Victor A. Pereira, P. Teotonio-Sobrinho
We consider a two parameter family of gauge theories on a lattice discretization of a 3-manifold and its relation to topological field theories. Familiar models su…
On two-dimensional quasitopological field theories
P. Teotonio-Sobrinho, C. Molina, N. Yokomizo
We study a class of lattice field theories in two dimensions that includes gauge theories. We show that in these theories it is possible to implement a broader notion of local symm…
Quantum Fields with Noncommutative Target Spaces
A. P. Balachandran, A. R. Queiroz, A. M. Marques +1
Quantum field theories (QFT's) on noncommutative spacetimes are currently under intensive study. Usually such theories have world sheet noncommutativity. In the present work, inste…
GL(2,R) dualities in generalised Z(2) gauge theories and Ising models
N. Yokomizo, P. Teotonio-Sobrinho
We study a class of duality transformations in generalised Z(2) gauge theories and Ising models on two- and three-dimensional compact lattices. The theories are interpreted algebra…
