Radiative Effects in Low-Dimensional Effective Fermion Field Theory with Compactification by Vladimir Ch. Zhukovsky

“…The introduction of branes immersed in the space-times of higher dimensions revealed itself to be a useful instrument for the study of high-dimensional models in quantum field theory. Moreover, low-dimensional quantum field theories represent an especially interesting class of models in physics due to their unique properties and renormalizability when interactions are treated perturbatively. …”

Topological Defect Network Representations of Fracton Stabilizer Codes by Zijian Song, Arpit Dua, Wilbur Shirley, Dominic J. Williamson

“…A topological defect network (TDN) is formed by a network of topological defects embedded within a topological quantum field theory (TQFT). TDNs were introduced recently for the purpose of describing fracton topological phases of matter using the framework of defect TQFT. …”

Defending Many Worlds via Case Discrimination: An Attempt to Showcase the Conceptual Incoherence of Anti-Realist Interpretations and Relational Quantum Mechanics by Michael Huber

“…Finally, it is argued that hidden-variable theories face severe challenges when being applied to Quantum Field Theory such that appropriate modifications may lead back to MWI, thereby purportedly leaving MWI as the only viable option.…”

Quantum Cosmology with Third Quantisation by Salvador J. Robles-Pérez

“…Thus, the quantisation of the wave function follows the customary formalism of a quantum field theory. A general review of the formalism is given, and the creation of the universes is analysed, including their initial expansion and the appearance of matter after inflation. …”

Shape Dynamics of the <inline-formula><math display="inline"><semantics><mrow><mi>T</mi><mover accent="true"><mi>T</mi><mo stretchy="false">¯</mo></mover></mrow></semantics></math>... by Vasudev Shyam

“…I will discuss how the gauge invariances of the Shape Dynamics, i.e., volume-preserving conformal invariance and diffeomorphism invariance along slices of constant radius are realized as Ward identities of the deformed quantum field theory. I will also comment about the relationship between the reduction to shape space on the gravity side and the solvability of the irrelevant operator deformation of the conformal field theory…”

Continuum limit Tonks-Girardeau matrix elements. Part I. The ground state and the uniform density state by Jarah Evslin, Hosam Mohammed, Hui Liu, Yao Zhou

“…In this sense, it allows one to solve for the ground state of a strongly coupled continuum quantum field theory in the field eigenstate basis. As examples, we calculate the matrix elements with respect to states with uniform density and also states consisting of two regions with distinct densities.…”

Generalized symmetry breaking scales and weak gravity conjectures by Clay Córdova, Kantaro Ohmori, Tom Rudelius

“…Abstract We explore the notion of approximate global symmetries in quantum field theory and quantum gravity. We show that a variety of conjectures about quantum gravity, including the weak gravity conjecture, the distance conjecture, and the magnetic and axion versions of the weak gravity conjecture can be motivated by the assumption that generalized global symmetries should be strongly broken within the context of low-energy effective field theory, i.e. at a characteristic scale less than the Planck scale where quantum gravity effects become important. …”

Renormalization group-like proof of the universality of the Tutte polynomial for matroids by G. Duchamp, N. Hoang-Nghia, Thomas Krajewski, A. Tanasa

“…We show that these Hopf algebra characters are solutions of some differential equations which are of the same type as the differential equations used to describe the renormalization group flow in quantum field theory. This approach allows us to also prove, in a different way, a matroid Tutte polynomial convolution formula published by Kook, Reiner and Stanton (1999). …”
