Modified instanton sum in QCD and higher-groups
Yuya Tanizaki, Mithat Ünsal
We consider the Yang-Mills theory, whose topological sectors are restricted to the instanton number with integer multiples of . We can formulate such a quantum field the…
Flow of Hagedorn singularities and phase transitions in large gauge theories
Aleksey Cherman, Syo Kamata, Thomas Schaefer +1
We investigate the singularity structure of the graded partition function in QCD with massive adjoint fermions in the large- limit. Here, is fermion nu…
Quantum distillation in QCD
Takuya Kanazawa, Mithat Ünsal
We propose a grading protocol which assigns global symmetry associated phases to states in the Hilbert space. Without modifying the Hilbert space, this changes the state sum, a pro…
Anomalies, a mod 2 index, and dynamics of 2d adjoint QCD
Aleksey Cherman, Theodore Jacobson, Yuya Tanizaki +1
We show that d adjoint QCD, an gauge theory with one massless adjoint Majorana fermion, has a variety of mixed 't Hooft anomalies. The anomalies are derived using a rece…
Fractional angle, 't Hooft anomaly, and quantum instantons in charge- multi-flavor Schwinger model
Tatsuhiro Misumi, Yuya Tanizaki, Mithat Ünsal
This work examines non-perturbative dynamics of a -dimensional QFT by using discrete 't Hooft anomaly, semi-classics with circle compactification and bosonization. We focus on c…
