Generalized unitary evolution for symplectic scalar fermions
read the original abstract
The theory of symplectic scalar fermion of LeClair and Neubert is studied. The theory evades the conventional spin-statistics theorem because its Hamiltonian is pseudo Hermitian. Here, we clarify the derivation of the symplectic currents and charges. By demanding the currents and charges to be pseudo Hermitian, the global symmetry of the free Lagrangian density reduces from Sp(2,C) to SU(2). By explicit calculations, we show that the LeClair-Neubert model of N quartic self-interacting scalar fermions admits generalized unitary evolution.

Non-perturbative renormalization group for pseudo-hermitian scalar fields in 4D
The pseudo-hermitian scalar model exhibits a line of non-unitary 4D fixed points, massless flows between them, and cyclic RG flows, supported by three-loop beta functions and an all-order conjecture.

SUSY meets pseudo-Hermiticity
Constructs pseudo-Hermitian Wess-Zumino model with symplectic fermions and bosonic spinor via superfields, then couples it to Hermitian version to allow cubic interactions while preserving SUSY.
