Yang-Mills Flux Tube in AdS II: Effective String Theory
Barak Gabai, Victor Gorbenko, Bendeguz Offertaler
We continue the study of flux tubes in confining gauge theories placed in a rigid AdS background, focusing on the three-dimensional case. Our analysis is performed in the large-rad…
Yang-Mills Flux Tube in AdS
Barak Gabai, Victor Gorbenko, Jiaxin Qiao
We initiate the study of flux tubes in confining gauge theories placed in a rigid AdS background, which serves as an infrared regulator. Varying the AdS radius from large to small…
Chaos in Systems with Quantum Group Symmetry
Victor Gorbenko, Aleksandr Zhabin
Quantum groups have a long and fruitful history of applications in integrable systems. Can quantum group symmetries exist in the absence of integrability? We provide an explicit ex…
Quantum Groups as Global Symmetries II. Coulomb Gas Construction
Barak Gabai, Victor Gorbenko, Jiaxin Qiao +2
We study a conformal field theory that arises in the infinite-volume limit of a spin chain with global symmetry. Most operators in the theory are defect-ending operator…
Quantum Groups as Global Symmetries
Barak Gabai, Victor Gorbenko, Jiaxin Qiao +2
We study quantum field theories which have quantum groups as global internal symmetries. We show that in such theories operators are generically non-local, and should be thought as…
De Sitter Bra-Ket Wormholes
Alessandro Fumagalli, Victor Gorbenko, Joshua Kames-King
We study a model for the initial state of the universe based on a gravitational path integral that includes connected geometries which simultaneously produce bra and ket of the wav…
