Lattice quantum Villain Hamiltonians: compact scalars, U(1) gauge theories, fracton models and quantum Ising model dualities
Abstract We construct Villain Hamiltonians for compact scalars and abelian gauge theories. The Villain integers are promoted to integral spectrum operators, whose canonical conjugates are naturally compact scalars. Further, depending on the theory, these conjugate operators can be interpreted as (hi...
