We review recent developments in Jackiw–Teitelboim gravity. This is a simple solvable
model of quantum gravity in two dimensions (that arises eg from the s-wave sector of higher …

This article is an interdisciplinary review of lattice gauge theory and spin systems. It
discusses the fundamentals, both physics and formalism, of these related subjects. Spin …

A bstract We revisit the symmetries of massless two-dimensional adjoint QCD with gauge
group SU (N). The dynamics is not sufficiently constrained by the ordinary symmetries and …

The phenomenon of quark confinement is known to be connected with the restoration of
apparently broken gauge symmetry. In this paper we focus on a special mechanism which is …

We review results concerning the critical behavior of spin systems at equilibrium. We
consider the Ising and the general O (N)-symmetric universality classes, including the N→ 0 …

This paper has three parts. The first part is a simplified presentation of the basic ideas of the
renormalization group and the c. expansion applied to critical phenomena, following roughly …

We study the phase diagram of lattice gauge theories coupled to fixed-length scalar (Higgs)
fields. We consider several gauge groups: Z 2, U (1), and SU (N). We find that when the …

This book introduces the lattice approach to quantum field theory. The spectacular
successes of this technique include compelling evidence that exchange of gauge gluons …

Abstract Using Monte Carlo techniques, we evaluate path integrals for pure SU (2) gauge
fields. Wilson's regularization procedure on a lattice of up to 10 4 sites controls ultraviolet …
