Renormalization group flow of QCD in 1+1 Dimensions
No full textThis work presents first stages of studying two-dimensional Quantum Chromodynamics with the Functional Renormalization Group. The model is studied in the vacuum and two truncations of different complexity are made for the effective average action where the regularization is implemented by Callan-Symanzik type regulators. An initial ansatz close to perturbation theory is later extended by adding a Fierz complete set of local four-fermion interactions. Flow equations for the gauge coupling, fermion mass and wave function renormalization as well as the four-fermion couplings are derived in detail. Hereby, a helpful observation about how the Wetterich equation determines a Fierz over-completeness of an ansatz is made. The resulting equations are studied with primary interest for a finite number of colours and fermion flavours, but their infinite limits are also considered bridging to the 't Hooft model. The solutions to the flow equations signal the formation of mesonic bound states where a resonance is found which is independent of the dynamics of the gauge coupling. This is in contrast to the four-dimensional theory in addition to the fact that the scale of the breakdown of the perturbative truncation is determined by the microscopic value of the gauge coupling in this super-renormalizable theory. The technical simplifications of the two-dimensional compared to the four-dimensional theory become apparent in this work and open the possibility to resolve the momentum dependence of the four-fermion interactions in new completeness in future projects

Inhomogeneous condensation in the Gross-Neveu model in noninteger spatial dimensions . II. Nonzero temperature and chemical potential
No full textKoenigstein A, Pannullo L. Inhomogeneous condensation in the Gross-Neveu model in noninteger spatial dimensions . II. Nonzero temperature and chemical potential. Physical Review D. 2024;109(5): 056015.We continue previous investigations of the (inhomogeneous) phase structure of the Gross-Neveu model in a noninteger number of spatial dimensions (1≤d<3) in the limit of an infinite number of fermion species (N→∞) at (non)zero chemical potential μ [L. Pannullo, Inhomogeneous condensation in the Gross-Neveu model in noninteger spatial dimensions 1≤d<3, Phys. Rev. D 108, 036022 (2023)]. In this work, we extend the analysis from zero to nonzero temperature T. The phase diagram of the Gross-Neveu model in 1≤d<3 spatial dimensions is well-known under the assumption of spatially homogeneous condensation with both a symmetry broken and a symmetric phase present for all spatial dimensions. In d=1 one additionally finds an inhomogeneous phase, where the order parameter, the condensate, is varying in space. Similarly, phases of spatially varying condensates are also found in the Gross-Neveu model in d=2 and d=3, as long as the theory is not fully renormalized, i.e., in the presence of a regulator. For d=2, one observes that the inhomogeneous phase vanishes, when the regulator is properly removed (which is not possible for d=3 without introducing additional parameters). In the present work, we use the stability analysis of the symmetric phase to study the presence (for 1≤d<2) and absence (for 2≤d<3) of these inhomogeneous phases and the related moat regimes in the fully renormalized Gross-Neveu model in the μ, T-plane. We also discuss the relation between “the number of spatial dimensions” and “studying the model with a finite regulator” as well as the possible consequences for the limit d→3

ADRIAN POP - IN SEARCH OF A LONG LOST SMILE
No full textAn anniversary, especially in the case of a generation colleague, the renowned composer Adrian Pop, generates the remembrance of a long series of musical events that have become notorious, with works included in the national and international concert repertoire. The avoidance of nostalgic memories made that a stage miniature be chosen for the present paper, an incursion of the author into the naive world of childhood reading. The result was a modern, glamorous musical transposition of a sequence with Max and Moritz, the playful heroes created by the famous humorist and cartoonist Wilhelm Busch in the middle of the 19th century. The musical act Onkel Fritz by Adrian Pop was first performed in Cluj in 2016, on October 22, on the occasion of his previous anniversary, within the Cluj Musical Autumn Festival. The graceful performers of the act, presented under the title “Anniversaries at the Festival, Adrian Pop compositional portrait”, were soprano Mihaela Maxim, in the role of Max and pianist Eva Butean, in the role of Moritz. How did composer Adrian Pop manage to musically enliven a 150 years old humorous story? The author of the following text will try to answer this question.
Rezumat. ADRIAN POP - ÎN CĂUTAREA SURÂSULUI PIERDUT. O aniversare, mai ales în cazul unui coleg de generație, reputatul compozitor Adrian Pop, generează rememorarea unui lung șir de evenimente muzicale devenite notorii, cu lucrări intrate în repertoriul intern și internațional de concerte. Evitarea unor memorii nostalgice au făcut ca sorții acestei comunicări să cadă asupra unei miniaturi scenice, o incursiune a autorului în lumea ingenuă a lecturilor din copilărie. A rezultat o transpunere muzicală modernă, plină de farmec, a unei secvențe cu Max și Moritz, eroii poznași creați de celebrul umorist și caricaturist Wilhelm Busch la mijlocul secolului XIX. Prima audiție clujeană a scenetei muzicale Onkel Fritz de Adrian Pop a avut loc în 2016, la 22 octombrie, cu ocazia precedentei sale aniversări, în cadrul Toamnei Muzicale Clujene. Interpreții plini de har ai scenetei prezentate sub genericul „Aniversări în Festival, portret componistic Adrian Pop” au fost soprana Mihaela Maxim, în rolul lui Max și pianista Eva Butean, în rolul lui Moritz. Oare cum a reușit compozitorul Adrian Pop să însuflețească muzical o poveste umoristică de 150 de ani? La această întrebare va încerca să răspundă autoarea acestor rânduri.
