Improved Bounds on the Spectral Gap Above Frustration-Free Ground States of Quantum Spin Chains

TL;DR: In this article, Nachtergaele obtained explicit lower bounds for the spectral gap above many frustration-free quantum spin chains by using the Martingale method and presented simple improvements to his main bounds which allow one to obtain a sharp lower bound for the spectral gap above the spin-1/2 ferromagnetic XXZ chain.

Anomalies, a mod 2 index, and dynamics of 2d adjoint QCD

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that massless massive adjoint QCD with one massless adjoint Majorana fermion has a variety of mixed 't Hooft anomalies, which are derived using a recent mod $2$ index theorem and its generalization that incorporates t Hooft flux.

Integrable Hamiltonian systems and interactions through quadratic constraints

TL;DR: In this article, the relativistic field theories in one time and one space dimension with interactions that are entirely due to quadratic constraints are shown to be closely related to integrable Hamiltonian systems.

What is the spin of a spin wave

TL;DR: In this paper, it was shown that the spin of a spin wave in the Heisenberg antiferromagnetic chain of spins 1 2 is equal to 1 2 rather than 1 as is generally considered to be true.
