• Abstract summary: We propose a novel solution to the Strong CP problem -- to explain why SU(3) strong force has a nearly zero theta angle $bartheta_3 simeq 0$ for the 4d Standard Model (SM) The new ingredient is Symmetric Mass Generation (SMG): symmetry-preserving mass or energy gap can be generated without breaking any symmetry $G$. The predictive signature of both SMG-based models is that some SM fermions or mirror fermions are highly interacting.

• Abstract: We propose a novel solution to the Strong CP problem -- to explain why SU(3) strong force has a nearly zero theta angle $\bar\theta_3 \simeq 0$ for the 4d Standard Model (SM). The new ingredient is Symmetric Mass Generation (SMG): symmetry-preserving mass or energy gap can be generated without breaking any symmetry $G$ and without any quadratic mean-field mass deformation as long as $G$ is all perturbative local and nonperturbative global anomaly-free. In our first model, we propose a disordered non-mean-field SMG gap (instead of the ordered Anderson-Higgs induced mass gap) for the $u$ quark (or generally a set of quarks and leptons totally anomaly-free in $G$) generated by multi-fermion interactions or by dynamical disordered mass fields, absorbing $\bar\theta_3$. Another variant of this first model is the SMG gapping a hypothetical hidden full fourth family of SM fermions. In our second model, we have a chiral SM and mirror SM together to respect the Nielsen-Ninomiya fermion-doubling and a parity-reflection $\mathbb{Z}_2^{\rm PR}$ symmetry at high energy, so the $\bar\theta_3 = 0$. Then the SMG lifts only the mirror SM with a large energy gap but leaves the chiral SM at lower energy, which not only "spontaneously" breaks the parity-reflection symmetry maximally but also relates our solution to solve another nonperturbative chiral fermion regularization problem by removing the fermion doubling. The predictive signature of both SMG-based models is that some SM fermions or mirror fermions are highly interacting (beyond the conventional SM Higgs or SM gauge interactions) mediated through hypothetical direct multi-fermion or disordered mass-field interactions.

  We show that a 1+1d abelian U(1) anomaly-free chiral fermion/gauge theory can be solved by a Symmetric Mass Generation mechanism. One solution replaces some chiral fermion's Higgs-induced mean-field mass with SMG-induced non-mean-field mass. Another solution enriches this toy model by introducing several new physics beyond the Standard Model.

  We discuss some properties of a model Hamiltonian for a system of three bosons interacting via zero-range forces in three dimensions. In particular, starting from a suitable quadratic form $Q$, the self-adjoint and bounded from below Hamiltonian $mathcal H$ can be constructed. We show that the threshold value $gamma_c$ is optimal, in the sense that the quadratic form $Q$ is unbounded from below if $gammagamma_c$.

  Inherent symmetry of a quantum system may protect its otherwise fragile states. We implement the one-dimensional kicked Ising model which exhibits non-local Majorana edge modes (MEMs) with $mathbbZ$ parity symmetry. MEMs are found to be resilient against certain symmetry-breaking noise owing to a prethermalization mechanism.

  We study QMBS in spin-$S$ $mathrmU(1)$ quantum link models with staggered fermions. We find that QMBS persist at $S>1/2$, with the resonant scarring regime, which occurs for a zero-mass quench. Our results conclusively show that QMBS exist in a wide class of lattice gauge theories in one spatial dimension.
