Domain walls and deconfinement: a semiclassical picture of discrete anomaly inflow
Andrew A. Cox, Erich Poppitz, Samuel S. Y. Wong
We study the physics of quark deconfinement on domain walls in four-dimensional supersymmetric SU(N) Yang-Mills theory, compactified on a small circle with supersymmetric boundary…

On the baryon-color-flavor (BCF) anomaly in vector-like theories
Mohamed M. Anber, Erich Poppitz
We consider the most general fractional background fluxes in the color, flavor, and baryon number directions, compatible with the faithful action of the global symmetry of a given…

A possible phase for adjoint QCD
Erich Poppitz, Thomas A. Ryttov
We discuss an exotic phase that adjoint QCD possibly exhibits in the deep infrared (IR). It is a confining phase, with a light spectrum consisting of massless composite fermions. T…
