Outer automorphism anomalies

We discuss anomalies associated with outer automorphisms in gauge theories based on classical groups, namely charge conjugations for SU(N) and parities for SO(2r). We emphasize the inequivalence (yet related by a flavor transformation) between two versions ...

Estimation of Charge Transfer During Long Continuing Currents in Natural Downward Flashes Using Single‐Station E‐Field Measurements

Farhad Rachidi-Haeri, Wolfgang Schulz, Hannes Kohlmann

The amount of charge transferred to ground during long continuing currents in natural downward flashes can be obtained either through direct current measurements or using remote electromagnetic fields, if direct measurements are not feasible. In this study ...

Bootstrapping massive quantum field theories

Denis Karateev, João Miguel Augusto Penedones Fernandes

We propose a new non-perturbative method for studying UV complete unitary quantum field theories (QFTs) with a mass gap in general number of spacetime dimensions. The method relies on unitarity formulated as positive semi-definiteness of the matrix of inne ...

Novel families of SU(N) AKLT states with arbitrary self-conjugate edge states

Transverse Detection of DNA Using a MoS2 Nanopore

Aleksandra Radenovic, Martina Lihter, Michael Graf, Sanjin Marion

Classical nanopore sensing relies on the measurement of the ion current passing through a nanopore. Whenever a molecule electrophoretically translocates through the narrow constriction, it modulates the ion current. Although this approach allows one to mea ...

Diamagnetic vortices in Chern-Simons theory

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Yannis Burnier, Eray Sabancilar

We find a new type of topological vortex solution in the U(1)(Z) xU(1)(A) Chern-Simons gauge theory in the presence of a U(1)(A) magnetic field background. In this theory U(1)(Z) is broken spontaneously by the U(1)(A) magnetic field. These vortices exhibit ...

Spontaneously broken mass

The Galilei group involves mass as a central charge. We show that the associated superselection rule is incompatible with the observed phenomenology of superfluid helium 4: this is recovered only under the assumption that mass is spontaneou.519 broken. Thi ...
