Nonlinear sigma model description of deconfined quantum criticality in arbitrary dimensions

DC Lu - SciPost Physics Core, 2023 - scipost.org
In this paper, we propose using the nonlinear sigma model (NLSM) with the Wess-Zumino-
Witten (WZW) term as a general description of deconfined quantum critical points that …

The Many Faces of Quantum Matter and Quantum Phase Transitions

D Lu - 2024 - search.proquest.com
Symmetry, anomaly and duality put strong constraints on the low-energy physics of the
quantum field theory. In this dissertation, we used generalized symmetry and symmetry …
