After reviewing the problem of chiral theory on the lattice, I comment on the standard method by symmetric mass generation of mirror fermion.I also review the recent work on chiral boson theory in 1+1 d by M.

Since the establishment of the Standard Model of elementary particles, the research in quantum field theory has investigated non-perturbative analysis based on theories with high symmetry, such as supersymmetry. However, the Standard Model, including QCD, has relatively low symmetry, and it is getting important to analyze theories based on features appearing only in QFT with low symmetry. In...

Quantum cosmology investigates the origins of our Universe, including the concept of "tunneling from nothing" proposed by Vilenkin and Hartle-Hawking. Recent advancements have renewed interest in this field, employing the Picard-Lefschetz theory in Lorentzian quantum gravity. In this study, we address crucial challenges using the generalized Lefschetz thimble method, overcoming the sign...

Photon spheres are the characteristic of general black holes, thus are a suitable touchstone for the emergence of gravitational spacetime in the AdS/CFT correspondence. We provide a spectral analysis of an AdS Schwarzschild black hole near its photon sphere. We find that quasinormal modes near the photon sphere reflect the AdS boundary, resulting in a peculiar spectral pattern. Our large...

Recently, Krylov complexity was proposed as a measure of complexity and chaoticity of quantum systems. We consider the stadium billiard as a typical example of the quantum mechanical system obtained by quantizing a classically chaotic system, and numerically evaluate Krylov complexity for operators and states. Despite no exponential growth of the Krylov complexity, we find a clear correlation...

The Lorentzian type IIB matrix model is a promising candidate for a non-perturbative formulation of superstring theory. Recently, we have performed complex Langevin simulations adding a Lorentz invariant mass term as an IR regulator. In this talk, we will show that the (3+1)-dimensional expanding space-time emerges due to the effect of fermions.

The local gauge symmetry remaining even after imposing a gauge fixing condition is called the residual local gauge symmetry, which is spontaneously broken in the perturbative vacuum, and is expected to be restored in the true confining vacuum. Indeed, the criterion for restoring a special choice of the residual gauge symmetry was shown to be equivalent to the Kugo-Ojima color confinement...

Under the Hamiltonian evolution, a simple operator turns into a complicated operator. The growth of such an operator is drastically different when the system is connected to a dissipative environment than in a typical closed system. We probe such growth via a recently explored measure of scrambling known as Krylov complexity and aim to propose an operator growth hypothesis in open quantum...

Bifundamental QCD, an $SU(N) \times SU(N)$ gauge theory with a bifundamental fermion, has received substantial attention due to its rich phase structure and its notable relevance to the large-$N$ orbifold equivalence.

We find new bilinear relations for the partition functions of $U (N)_k × U(N+M)_{−k}$ ABJ theory with two parameter mass deformation (m1,m2), which generalize the q-Toda-like equation found previously for m1=m2. By combining the bilinear relations with the Seiberg-like dualities and the duality cascade relations, we can determine the closed form expressions of the partition functions...

We talk about Page curves for 2d black holes with multiple injections. The feature is that a decreasing entanglement entropy related to time is replaced with a increasing one when a energy is injected. After each energy injection, we find a sudden increase in the entropy, and also subsequent increasing period. Then, after a "Page time", there comes a decreasing period untill the next energy...

We newly show how to compute the mass spectra in the Hamiltonian formalism, which...

In perturbative string theory, there have mainly been two ways to quantize the string. Either one quantizes in lightcone gauge, or one quantizes covariantly. The difference between them is only gauge condition, and the equivalence of on-shell amplitudes had been already shown. String field theory is a candidate for a non-perturbative formulation of string theory. There have mainly been two...

The IKKT matrix model was proposed in 1996 as a non-perturbative description of superstring theory.

For the past few decades, there has been extensive number of numerical attempts to study the model. In this work, we...

The IKKT matrix model is the most promising candidate of a non-perturbative formulation of superstring theory. Recently it has been proposed to introduce the Lorentz invariant mass term as a regularization. This model has SO(9,1) Lorentz symmetry, and a partition function diverges due to the non-compactness of the volume of the Lorentz group. In this study, we have done the analytical...

The type IIB matrix model is a promising candidate for a nonperturbative definition of superstring theory.

Furthermore, a generation number of quarks/leptons is small on these...

In this talk, we revisit the "derivation" of the IKKT matrix model from perturbative string theory and discuss how we should define the path integral of the matrix model. In course of the "derivation," we will see that kappa symmetry is formally enhanced and that there is a subalgebra of the gauge symmetry closed off-shell, in sharp contrast to the fact that the kappa symmetry in the...

One of the goals in quantum field theory is to identify long distance behaviors of a theory defined at a short distance. One criterion to distinguish long distance behaviors is the precense of gap. When it is gapped, in two-dimensional space(time), the phases stand in bijection with module categories. In particular, ground state degeneracies (GSDs) of gapped phases are given by ranks of module...

We extend the definition of Lüscher's lattice topological charge to the case of 4d SU(N) gauge fields coupled with Z_N 2-form gauge fields. This result is achieved while maintaining the locality, the SU(N) gauge invariance, and Z_N 1-form gauge invariance, and we find that the manifest 1-form gauge invariance plays the central role in our construction.
