Abstract: The notion of a “shift of the centre of gravity” towards Europe’s East has gained traction in analyses of Russia’s war against Ukraine. This article challenges that idea and proposes alternative conceptual-analytical tools for studying… read more here.

Abstract: The geometry of center vortices is studied in the novel lattice-artefact phase that appears with staggered fermions to elucidate any insight provided by the center-vortex degrees of freedom. For various numbers of fermion flavors, the… read more here.
