On the Topological Origin of Entanglement in Ising Spin Glasses

V. V. Sreedhar

The origin of thermal and quantum entanglement in a class of three-dimensional spin models, at low momenta, is traced to purely topological reasons. The establishment of the result…

The Maximal Kinematical Invariance Group of Fluid Dynamics and Explosion-Implosion Duality

L. O'Raifeartaigh, V. V. Sreedhar

It has recently been found that supernova explosions can be simulated in the laboratory by implosions induced in a plasma by intense lasers. A theoretical explanation is that the i…

Duality in Liouville Theory as a Reduced Symmetry

L. O'Raifeartaigh, V. V. Sreedhar

The origin of the rather mysterious duality symmetry found in quantum Liouville theory is investigated by considering the Liouville theory as the reduction of a WZW-like theory in…

Duality in Quantum Liouville Theory

L. O'Raifeartaigh, J. M. Pawlowski, V. V. Sreedhar

The quantisation of the two-dimensional Liouville field theory is investigated using the path integral, on the sphere, in the large radius limit. The general form of the -point…

Path Integral Formulation of the Conformal Wess-Zumino-Witten to Toda Reductions

L. O. Raifeartaigh, V. V. Sreedhar

The phase space path integral Wess-Zumino-Witten Toda reductions are formulated in a manifestly conformally invariant way. For this purpose, the method of Batalin, Fradkin, a…

Path Integral Formulation of the Conformal Wess-Zumino-Witten to Liouville Reduction

L. O'Raifeartaigh, V. V. Sreedhar

The quantum Wess-Zumino-Witten Liouville reduction is formulated using the phase space path integral method of Batalin, Fradkin, and Vilkovisky, adapted to theories on compac…

Conformally Invariant Path Integral Formulation of the Wess-Zumino-Witten Liouville Reduction

L. O'Raifeartaigh, V. V. Sreedhar

The path integral description of the Wess-Zumino-Witten Liouville reduction is formulated in a manner that exhibits the conformal invariance explicitly at each stage of the r…

A Class of Quantum Integrable Models Associated with the Infra-red Limit of Massive Chern-Simons Theory

V. V. Sreedhar

We study the infra-red limit of non-abelian Chern-Simons gauge theory perturbed by a non-topological, albeit gauge invariant, mass term. It is shown that, in this limit, we may con…

On the infrared limit of the Chern-Simons-Proca theory

A. J. Niemi, V. V. Sreedhar

We investigate a modification of the 2+1 dimensional abelian Chern-Simons theory, obtained by adding a Proca mass term to the gauge field. We are particularly interested in the inf…
