abstract

The infrared dynamics of $2+1$ dimensional quantum electrodynamics (QED$_3$) with a large number $N$ of fermion flavors is governed by an interacting CFT that can be studied in the $1/N$ expansion. We use the $1/N$ expansion to calculate the scaling dimensions of all the lowest three scalar operators that transform under the $SU(N)$ flavor symmetry as a Young diagram with two columns of not necessarily equal heights and that have vanishing topological charge. In the case of $SU(N)$ singlets, we study the mixing of $(\bar \psi_i \psi^i)(\bar \psi_j \psi^j)$ and $F_{\mu\nu} F^{\mu\nu}$, which are the lowest dimension parity-even singlets. Our results suggest that these operators are irrelevant for all $N>1$.

  1. Topological phase transitions between bosonic and fermionic quantum Hall states near even-denominator filling factors

    cond-mat.mes-hall 2025-08 unverdicted novelty 7.0 of 10

    The transition between Jain and daughter quantum Hall states is mapped to an E8 to trivial transition and predicted to split into at least eight transitions with intermediate topological phases.

  2. Numerical determination of monopole scaling dimension in parity-invariant three-dimensional non-compact QED

    hep-lat 2019-08 conditional novelty 7.0 of 10

    Monte Carlo measurement gives monopole scaling dimension Delta(12)=3.24(24), consistent with large-N theory, and positive finite-N corrections for N=2,4 that disagree in sign with the leading 1/N expansion.

  3. The large charge limit of scalar field theories and the Wilson-Fisher fixed point at $\epsilon=0$

    hep-th 2019-08 accept novelty 6.0 of 10

    In the double scaling limit g to 0, n to infinity at fixed lambda = g n^2, the dimension of the charge n operator phi^n in the O(2) Wilson-Fisher theory is exactly n + lambda/(32 pi^2).
