Line defects in the 3d Ising model
M. Billó, M. Caselle, D. Gaiotto +3
We investigate the properties of the twist line defect in the critical 3d Ising model using Monte Carlo simulations. In this model the twist line defect is the boundary of a surfac…
Dirac-Born-Infeld action from spontaneous breakdown of Lorentz symmetry in brane-world scenarios
F. Gliozzi
In whatever Lorentz invariant theory, the presence of extended d-dimensional objects inside a higher dimensional bulk space-time, like for instance D-branes in string theories, ind…
Entanglement Entropy and Twist Fields
Michele Caraglio, Ferdinando Gliozzi
The entanglement entropy of a subsystem of a quantum system is expressed, in the replica approach, through analytic continuation with respect to n of the trace of the n-th power of…
On the ODE/IM correspondence for minimal models
Patrick Dorey, Clare Dunning, Ferdinando Gliozzi +1
Within the framework of the ODE/IM correspondence, we show that the minimal conformal field theories with c<1 emerge naturally from the monodromy properties of certain families of…
The decay of unstable k-strings in SU(N) gauge theories at zero and finite temperature
Ferdinando Gliozzi
Sources in higher representations of SU(N) gauge theory at T=0 couple with apparently stable strings with tensions depending on the specific representation rather than on its N-ali…
k-strings and baryon vertices in SU(N) gauge theories
Ferdinando Gliozzi
It is pointed out that the sine law for the k-string tension emerges as the critical threshold below which the spatial Z_N symmetry of the static baryon potential is spontaneously…
