We revisit the problem of diffusive proximity systems involving superconductors and normal metals (or ferromagnets) with magnetic disorder. On the length scales much larger than its correlation length, the effect of sufficiently weak magnetic disorder may ...
We propose a scheme leading to a non-perturbative definition of lattice field theories which are scale-invariant on the quantum level. A key idea of the construction is the replacement of the lattice spacing by a propagating dynamical field - the dilaton. ...
For nonlinear sigma models in the unitary symmetry class, the nonlinear target space can be parameterized with cubic polynomials. This choice of coordinates has been known previously as the Dyson-Maleev parameterization for spin systems, and we show that i ...
I consider anomalies in effective field theories (EFTs) of gauge fields coupled to fermions on an interval in AdS(5), and their holographic duals. The anomalies give rise to constraints on the consistent EFT description, which are stronger than the usual f ...
