    We show that any smooth and proper dg-algebra (over some base ring k) is determined, up to quasi-isomorphism, by its underlying A_n-algebra, for a certain integer n. Similarly, any morphism between two smooth and proper dg-algebras is determined, up to homotopy, by the morphism induced on the underlying A_n-algebras, for a certain integer n. When the base ri

    In the context of confining gauge theories we study the flux tube generated by a pair of static sources belonging to higher rank representations of the gauge group. Using a simple geometric approach based on minimal surfaces describing the world-sheet of the underlying k-string, we infer logarithmic broadening of the flux tube as a function of source separat

    We introduce a community network model which exhibits scale-free property and study the evolutionary Prisoner's Dilemma game (PDG) on this network model. It is found that the frequency of cooperators decreases with the increment of the average degree $\bar{k}$ from the simulation results. And reducing inter-community links can promote cooperation when we

    Perturbed stationary axisymmetric isolated bodies, e.g. stars, represented by a matter-filled interior and an asymptotically flat vacuum exterior joined at a surface where the Darmois matching conditions are satisfied, are considered. The initial state is assumed to be static. The perturbations of the matching conditions are derived and used as boundary cond

    In this paper we look into the structure of finite-dimensional graded superalgebras of various types such as associative, Lie and Jordan over an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero.

    We establish that the ability of a localized trapping potential to bind weakly-interacting bosons is dramatically enhanced in the vicinity of the threshold of formation of the single-particle bound-state of the trap. Specifically, for repulsive particles and a super-threshold trapping potential the equilibrium number of bound bosons and the size of the groun

    Starting from the general definition of a one-loop tensor N-point function, we use its Feynman parametrization to calculate the UV-divergent part of an arbitrary tensor coefficient in the framework of dimensional regularization. In contrast to existing recursion schemes, we are able to present a general analytic result in closed form that enables direct dete

    The paper presents theoretical results on the magnetization of a diluted Heisenberg antiferromagnet on the square lattice for models with two exchange constants (J1-J2 and J1-J3). Cluster with up to five spins (5/2) are considered.

    A scheme of implementing the Grover search algorithm based on Josephson charge qubits has been proposed, which would be a key step to scale more complex quantum algorithms and very important for constructing a real quantum computer via Josephson charge qubits. The present scheme is simple but fairly efficient, and easily manipulated because any two-charge-qu

    An updated version of the PNJL model is used to study the thermodynamics of N_f = 2 quark flavors interacting through chiral four-point couplings and propagating in a homogeneous Polyakov loop background. Previous PNJL calculations are extended by introducing explicit diquark degrees of freedom and an improved effective potential for the Polyakov loop field.

    Time operator can be introduced by three different approaches: by pertaining it to dynamical variables; by quantizing the classical expression of time; taken as the restriction of energy shift generator to the Hilbert space of a physical system.

  12. Juan C. Botero, Jean-Jacques E. Slotine

    This paper presents an application of partial contraction analysis to the study of global synchronization in discrete chaotic systems. Explicit sufficient conditions on the coupling strength of networks of discrete oscillators are derived. Numerical examples and applications to simple systems are presented. Previous researches have shown numerically that the

    Decoupling of c-quark loops in b-quark HQET is considered. The decoupling coefficients for the HQET heavy-quark field and the heavy-light quark current are calculated with the three-loop accuracy. The last result can be used to improve the accuracy of extracting f_B from HQET lattice simulations (without c-quark loops). The decoupling coefficient for the fla

    It will be shown that the Reeh-Schlieder property holds for states of quantum fields for ultrahyperfunctional Wightman theory. As by product, it is shown that the Reeh-Schlieder property also holds for states of quantum fields on a non-commutative Minkowski space in the setting ultrahyperfunctional.

  15. M. Lukachev, L. Shuster

    We find a criterion for correct solvability in L_p(R) of a linear differential equation of a first order with non-negative locally integrated coefficient and study the asymptotic properties of its solutions.

    In the present paper, we intent to enlarge the axiomatic framework of non-commutative quantum field theories (QFT). We consider QFT on non-commutative spacetimes in terms of the tempered ultrahyperfunctions of Sebastião e Silva corresponding to a convex cone, within the framework formulated by Wightman. Tempered ultrahyperfunctions are representable by means

    Co$_2$FeSi(100) films with L2$_1$ structure deposited onto MgO(100) were studied exploiting both longitudinal (LMOKE) and quadratic (QMOKE) magneto-optical Kerr effect. The films exhibit a huge QMOKE signal with a maximum contribution of up to 30 mdeg, which is the largest QMOKE signal in reflection that has been measured thus far. This large value is a fing

    We have calculated the emission spectra of Y and N and invariant masses of YN pairs in the direct K-NN --> YN absorption process at rest in 4He and light nuclei in order to provide theoretical tools for correct interpretations of experimental data with or without invoking kaonic nuclear bound states. All the momentum distributions are broad with widths aroun

    In this paper we introduce a notion of {\it generalized operad} containing as special cases various kinds of operad--like objects: ordinary, cyclic, modular, properads etc. We then construct inner cohomomorphism objects in their categories (and categories of algebras over them). We argue that they provide an approach to symmetry and moduli objects in non-com

    We calculate the new physics contributions to the neutral $B_d^0$ and $B_s^0$ meson mass splitting $ΔM_d$ and $ΔM_s$ induced by the box diagrams involving the charged-Higgs bosons in the top quark two-Higgs doublet model (T2HDM). Using the precision data, we obtain the bounds on the parameter space of the T2HDM: (a) for fixed $M_H=400$ GeV and $δ=[0^\circ,60

    Contexts are maximal collections of co-measurable observables "bundled together" to form a "quasi-classical mini-universe." Different notions of contexts are discussed for classical, quantum and generalized urn-automaton systems.

    In this paper we perform collective quantization of an axially symmetric skyrmion with baryon number two.The rotational and isorotational modes are quantized to obtain the static properties of a deuteron and other dibaryonic objects such as masses, charge densities, magnetic moments. We discuss how the gravity affects to those observables.

    K strings in Yang-Mills theory can be considered as bound states of k elementary confining strings carrying one unit of colour flux. Current estimates of k-string tension sigma_k are very sensitive to the leading corrections due to quantum fluctuations of the string. In this study we address this problem by comparing Polyakov-Polyakov correlators in the fund

    We have demonstrated and modeled a simple and efficient method to transfer atoms from a first Magneto-Optical Trap (MOT) to a second one. Two independent setups, with cesium and rubidium atoms respectively, have shown that a high power and slightly diverging laser beam optimizes the transfer between the two traps when its frequency is red-detuned from the at

    There is a higher dimensional analogue of the perturbative Chern-Simons theory in the sense that a similar perturbative series as in 3-dimension, which is computed via configuration space integral, yields an invariant of higher dimensional knots (Bott-Cattaneo-Rossi invariant), which is constructed by Bott for degree 2 and by Cattaneo-Rossi for higher degree

    In this article, we present the unbalanced quantum error correcting codes(one-party-QECC), a novel idea for correcting unbalanced quantum errors. In some quantum communication tasks using entangled pairs, the error distributions between two parts of the pairs are unbalanced, and. one party holds the whole entangled pairs at the final stage, and he or she is

    The exact static and spherically symmetric solutions of the vacuum field equations for a Higgs Scalar-Tensor theory (HSTT) are derived in Schwarzschild coordinates. It is shown that in general there exists no Schwarzschild horizon and that the fields are only singular (as naked singularity) at the center (i.e. for the case of a pont-particle). However, the S

    We present measurements of the time-dependent CP-violation parameters S and C in B^0 --> eta' K^0 decays. The data sample corresponds to 384 million B Bar pairs produced by e^+ e^- annihilation at the Y(4S). The results are S = 0.58 +- 0.10 +- 0.03 and C = -0.16 +- 0.07 +- 0.03. We observe mixing-induced CP violation with a significance of 5.5 standard d

    We consider nonlinear biasing models of galaxies with particular attention to a correlation between linear and quadratic biasing coefficients, b_1 and b_2. We first derive perturbative expressions for b_1 and b_2 in halo and peak biasing models. Then we compute power spectra and bispectra of dark matter particles and halos using N-body simulation data and of

    The recent measurements of the $B_s$ mass difference $ΔM_s$ by the CDF and DØ collaborations are roughly consistent with the Standard Model predictions, therefore, these measurements will afford an opportunity to constrain new physics scenarios beyond the Standard Model. We consider the impact of the R-parity violating supersymmetry in the $B^0_s-\bar{B}^0_s

    The zero-temperature XX chain is studied with emphasis on the properties of a block of $L$ spins inside the chain. We investigate the quantum fluctuations resulting from the entanglement of the block with the rest of the chain using analytical as well as numerical (density matrix renormalization group) methods. It is found that the rest of the chain acts as

    Using the positive energy theorem, we derive some constraints on static steller models in asymptotically flat spacetimes in a general setting without imposing spherical symmetry. We show that there exist no regular solutions under certain conditions on the equation of state. As the contraposition, we obtain some constraints on the pressure and adiabatic inde

    The time sequences of the molecular dynamics simulation for the folding process of a protein is analyzed with the inherent structure landscape which focuses on configurational dynamics of the system. Time dependent energy and entropy for inherent structures are introduced and from these quantities a conformational temperature is defined. The conformational t

    We give two generalizations, in arbitrary depth, of the symmetry phenomenon used by Ball-Rivoal to prove that infinitely many values of Riemann $ζ$ function at odd integers are irrational. These generalizations concern multiple series of hypergeometric type, which can be written as linear forms in some specific multiple zeta values. The proof makes use of th

    We shall prove that the Poisson deformation functor of an affine (singular) symplectic variety is unobstructed. As a corollary, we prove the following result. Theorem: For an affine symplectic variety $X$ with a good $C^*$-action (where its natural Poisson structure is positively weighted), the following are equivalent (1) $X$ has a crepant projective resolu

    We observe quantum, Hong-Ou-Mandel, interference of fields produced by two remote atomic memories. High-visibility interference is obtained by utilizing the finite atomic memory time in four-photon delayed coincidence measurements. Interference of fields from remote atomic memories is a crucial element in protocols for scalable generation of multi-node remot

    The problem of long-distance teleportation of single-atom qubits via a common photonic channel is examined within the framework of a Mach-Zender optical interferometer. As expected, when a coherent state is used as input, a high-finesse optical cavity is required to overcome sensitivity to spontaneous emission. However, we find that a number-squeezed light f

    Quantum mechanics in phase space (or deformation quantization) appears to fail as an autonomous quantum method when infinite potential walls are present. The stationary physical Wigner functions do not satisfy the normal eigen equations, the *-eigen equations, unless an ad hoc boundary potential is added [Dias-Prata]. Alternatively, they satisfy a different,

    Recently, there have been a number of works investigating the entanglement properties of distinct noncomplementary parts of discrete and continuous Bosonic systems in ground and thermal states. The Fermionic case, however, has yet to be expressly addressed. In this paper we investigate the entanglement between a pair of far-apart regions of the 3+1 dimension

    We describe a scheme showing signatures of macroscopic optomechanical entanglement generated by radiation pressure in a cavity system with a massive movable mirror. The system we consider reveals genuine multipartite entanglement. We highlight the way the entanglement involving the inaccessible massive object is unravelled, in our scheme, by means of field-f

    The light propagation of a probe field pulse in a four-level double-lambda type system driven by laser fields that form a closed interaction loop is studied. Due to the finite frequency width of the probe pulse, a time-independent analysis relying on the multiphoton resonance assumption is insufficient. Thus we apply a Floquet decomposition of the equations

    Searching and sorting used as a subroutine in many important algorithms. Quantum algorithm can find a target item in a database faster than any classical algorithm. One can trade accuracy for speed and find a part of the database (a block) containing the target item even faster, this is partial search. An example is the following: exact address of the target

    We study statistical properties of interacting protein-like surfaces and predict two strong, related effects: (i) statistically enhanced self-attraction of proteins; (ii) statistically enhanced attraction of proteins with similar structures. The effects originate in the fact that the probability to find a pattern self-match between two identical, even random

    Results are reported concerning the formation of spatial patterns in the two-species ratio-dependent predator-prey model driven by spatial colored-noise. The results show that there is a critical value with respect to the intensity of spatial noise for this system when the parameters are in the Turing space, above which the regular spatial patterns appear in

    A hydrodynamic model for determining the electrophoretic speed of a polyelectrolyte through a nanopore is presented. It is assumed that the speed is determined by a balance of electrical and viscous forces arising from within the pore and that classical continuum electrostatics and hydrodynamics may be considered applicable. An explicit formula for the trans

    Diffractive screens are high-resolution elements with capability for generating holographic-like images from a sequence of planes where TV frames are seen oblique to it. If we project a sequence of contour lines of an object it could be seen in continuous horizontal parallax to a size of 1m3.

    A new theoretical approach to the description of the attosecond streaking measurements of atomic photoionization is presented. It is a fully quantum mechanical description based on numerical solving of the time-dependent Schroedinger equation which includes the atomic field as well as the fields of the XUV and IR pulses. Also a simple semiempirical descripti

    The paper describes a possible physical characterization for the definition of elementary fluid flow. As consequence, an analytical expansion based on Reynolds number powers for the velocity field is shown in the weakly turbulent case.

    The balanced vehicular traffic model is a macroscopic model for vehicular traffic flow. We use this model to study the traffic dynamics at highway bottlenecks either caused by the restriction of the number of lanes or by on-ramps or off-ramps. The coupling conditions for the Riemann problem of the system are applied in order to treat the interface between di

    In these lectures we discuss the uses of effective field theory in studying dense hadronic matter. We focus on two regimes in the phase diagram. At low baryon density nucleons can be described as non-relativistic point particles interacting via short range forces. Interesting effects arise because of the large nucleon-nucleon scattering length. At very large

    The existence of drag reduction by polymer additives, well established for wall-bounded turbulent flows, is controversial in homogeneous, isotropic turbulence. To settle this controversy we carry out a high-resolution direct numerical simulation (DNS) of decaying, homogeneous, isotropic turbulence with polymer additives. Our study reveals clear manifestation

    This is a survey article dedicated mostly to the theory of real regular "finite-gap" (algebro-geometrical) periodic and quasiperiodic Sine-Gordon solutions. Long period this theory remained unfinished and ineffective, and by that reason practically had no applications. Even for such simple physical quantity as "Topological Charge" no formulas

    We study the massless minimally coupled scalar field on a two--dimensional de Sitter space-time in the setting of axiomatic quantum field theory. We construct the invariant Wightman distribution obtained as the renormalized zero--mass limit of the massive one. Insisting on gauge invariance of the model we construct a vacuum state and a Hilbert space of physi

    An amended MaxEnt formulation for systems displaced from the conventional MaxEnt equilibrium is proposed. This formulation involves the minimization of the Kullback-Leibler divergence to a reference $Q$ (or maximization of Shannon $Q$-entropy), subject to a constraint that implicates a second reference distribution $P\_{1}$ and tunes the new equilibrium.

    Following Jacobi's geometrization of Lagrange's least action principle, trajectories of classical mechanics can be characterized as geodesics on the configuration space M with respect to a suitable metric which is the conformal modification of the kinematic metric by a factor (U+h), where U and h is the potential function and total energy, respective

    We consider a two-dimensional integrable Hamiltonian system with a vector and scalar potential in quantum mechanics. Contrary to the case of a pure scalar potential, the existence of a second order integral of motion does not guarantee the separation of variables in the Schroedinger equation. We introduce the concept of "quasiseparation of variables"

    For many classical moduli spaces of orthogonal type there are results about the Kodaira dimension. But nothing is known in the case of dimension greater than 19. In this paper we obtain the first results in this direction. In particular the modular variety defined by the orthogonal group of the even unimodular lattice of signature (2, 8m+2) is of general typ

    It is shown that the maximum number of patterns that can occur in a permutation of length $n$ is asymptotically $2^n$. This significantly improves a previous result of Coleman.

    In this paper we investigate the relationship between the existence of parallel semi-Riemannian metrics of a connection and the reducibility of the associated holonomy group. The question as to whether the holonomy group necessarily reduces in the presence of a specified number of independent parallel semi-Riemannian metrics is completely determined by the t

    We establish large deviation principles and phase transition results for both quenched and annealed settings of nearest-neighbor random walks with constant drift in random nonnegative potentials on $\mathbb Z^d$. We complement the analysis of \cite{Zer}, where a shape theorem on the Lyapunov functions and a large deviation principle in absence of the drift a

    The reasons of the crisis in the contemporary (Riemannian) geometry are discussed. The conventional method of the generalized geometries construction, based on a use of the topology, leads to a overdetermination of the Riemannian geometry. In other words, at the Riemannian geometry construction one uses the needless information (topology), which disagrees wi

    The aim of this paper is to discuss a relationship between total positivity and planar directed networks. We show that the inverse boundary problem for these networks is naturally linked with the study of the totally nonnegative Grassmannian. We investigate its cell decomposition, where the cells are the totally nonnegative parts of the matroid strata. The b

    We show that Kruzhkov's theory of entropy solutions to multidimensional scalar conservation laws can be entirely recast in L2 and fits into the general theory of maximal monotone operators in Hilbert spaces. Our approach is based on a combination of level-set, kinetic and transport-collapse approximations, in the spirit of previous works by Giga, Miyakaw

    We use curvature decompositions to construct generating sets for the space of algebraic curvature tensors and for the space of tensors with the same symmetries as those of a torsion free, Ricci symmetric connection; the latter naturally appear in relative hypersurface theory.

    The strong law of large numbers for linear combinations of functions of order statistics ($L$-statistics) based on weakly dependent random variables is proven. We also establish the Glivenko--Cantelli theorem for $ϕ$-mixing sequences of identically distributed random variables.

    An $(L,d)^*$-coloring is a mapping $ϕ$ that assigns a color $ϕ(v)\in L(v)$ to each vertex $v\in V(G)$ such that at most $d$ neighbors of $v$ receive colore $ϕ(v)$. A graph is called $(m,d)^*$-choosable, if $G$ admits an $(L,d)^*$-coloring for every list assignment $L$ with $|L(v)|\geq m$ for all $v\in V(G)$. In this note, it is proved that every toroidal gra

    Proposed as a general framework, Liu and Yu(Discrete Math. 231 (2001) 311-320) introduced $(n,k,d)$-graphs to unify the concepts of deficiency of matchings, $n$-factor-criticality and $k$-extendability. Let $G$ be a graph and let $n,k$ and $d$ be non-negative integers such that $n+2k+d\leq |V(G)|-2$ and $|V(G)|-n-d$ is even. If when deleting any $n$ vertices

If when deleting any $n$ vertices of $G$ the remaining subgraph contains a matching of $k$ edges and every $k$-matching can be extended to a 1-factor, then $G$ is called an $(n, k)-extendable graph.

    In this note, we consider a SK (Sherrington--Kirkpatrick)-type model on Z^d for d greater or equal to 1, weighted by a function allowing to any single spin to interact with a small proportion of the other ones. In the thermodynamical limit, we investigate the equivalence of this model with the usual SK spin system, through the study of the fluctuations of th

    A near-symplectic structure on a 4-manifold is a closed 2-form that is symplectic away from the 1-dimensional submanifold along which it vanishes and that satisfies a certain transversality condition along this vanishing locus. We investigate near-symplectic 4-manifolds equipped with singular Lagrangian torus fibrations which are locally induced by effective

    The large time behavior of non-negative solutions to the viscous Hamilton-Jacobi equation $u_t - Δu + |\nabla u|^q = 0$ in the whole space $R^N$ is investigated for the critical exponent $q = (N+2)/(N+1)$. Convergence towards a rescaled self-similar solution of the linear heat equation is shown, the rescaling factor being $(\log(t))^{-(N+1)}$. The proof reli

    We introduce a notion of a group-partition for a finite Abelian group, which is a generalized notion of the standard partition. To obtain asymptoticdistributions of group-partition, we study the Dirichlet series for group-partitions by employing the generating function of the plane partition.

    Let $ξ=(X,p,B,G)$ be a principal $G$-bundle, $F$ be a $G$ space and $η=(E,p,B,F)$ be the associated bundle with the fiber $F$. Generally $ξ$ and the action $H_*(G)\otimes H_*(F)\to H_*(F)$ of the Pontriagin ring $H_*(G)$ on $H_*(F)$ do not define homologies of $E$. In this paper we define a two sequences of operations $\{f^i:H_*(G)^{\otimes i}\to H_*(G), i=3

    We construct normal forms for Levi degenerate hypersurfaces of finite type in $\mathbb C^2$. As one consequence, an explicit solution to the problem of local biholomorphic equivalence is obtained. Another consequence determines the dimension of the stability group of the hypersurface.

    We consider a model $Y\_t=σ\_tη\_t$ in which $(σ\_t)$ is not independent of the noise process $(η\_t)$, but $σ\_t$ is independent of $η\_t$ for each $t$. We assume that $(σ\_t)$ is stationary and we propose an adaptive estimator of the density of $\ln(σ^2\_t)$ based on the observations $Y\_t$. Under various dependence structures, the rates of this nonparamet

    We describe a theoretical and effective algorithm which enables us to prove that rather general hypergeometric series and integrals can be decomposed as linear combinations of multiple zeta values, with rational coefficients.

    A fast and accurate algorithm for solving a Bernstein-Vandermonde linear system is presented. The algorithm is derived by using results related to the bidiagonal decomposition of the inverse of a totally positive matrix by means of Neville elimination. The use of explicit expressions for the determinants involved in the process serves to make the algorithm b

    Let A be a simple, unital, exact, and finite C*-algebra which absorbs the Jiang-Su algebra Z tensorially. We prove that the Cuntz semigroup of A admits a complete order embedding into an ordered semigroup obtained from the Elliott invariant in a functorial manner. We conjecture that this embedding is an isomorphism, and prove the conjecture in several cases.

    In this paper we derive an explicit formula for the Hirzebruch-Mumford volume of an indefinite lattice L of rank at least 3. If Γis an arithmetic subgroup of the group O(L) of isometries of L and L has signature (2,n), then an application of Hirzebruch-Mumford proportionality allows us to determine the leading term of the growth of the dimension of the space

    The higher direct image complex of a coherent sheaf (or finite complex of coherent sheaves) under a projective morphism is a fundamental construction that can be defined via a Cech complex or an injective resolution, both inherently infinite constructions. Using exterior algebras and relative versions of theorems of Beilinson and Bernstein-Gel'fand-Gel&#

    As a generalization of the results [KW3],we study the functional equation of the higher Selberg zeta function for congruence subgroups. To obtain the gamma factor of this function, we introduce a higher Dirichlet $L$-function. Then we determine the gamma factor explicitly in terms of the Barnes triple gamma function and the higher Dirichlet $L$-function.

We let $λ(M,[g],\si)= \inf_{\tilde{g} \in [g]} λ_1^+(\tilde{g}) Vol(M,\tilde{g})^{1/n}$ where $λ_1^+(\tilde{g})$ is the smallest positive eigenvalue of the Dirac operator D in the metric $\tilde{g}$. A previous result stated that $λ(M,[g],\si) \leq λ(\mS^n) =\frac{n}{2}

    Two approaches to renormalization-group improvement are examined: the substitution of the solutions of running couplings, masses and fields into perturbatively computed quantities is compared with the systematic sum of all the leading log (LL), next-to-leading log (NLL) etc. contributions to radiatively corrected processes, with n-loop expressions for the ru

    A novel approach to the analysis of the gravitational well problem from a second quantised description has been discussed. The second quantised formalism enables us to study the effect of time space noncommutativity in the gravitational well scenario which is hitherto unavailable in the literature. The corresponding first quantized theory reveals a leading o

    Current status of the NNLO QCD corrections to B -> X_s gamma is reviewed. The calculations include three-loop matching conditions, four-loop anomalous dimensions as well as two- and three-loop on-shell amplitudes. Certain parts of the three-loop matrix elements are found by interpolation in the charm quark mass between the large-beta_0 approximation in the m

    We have shown in a previous paper that two identical detectors with each fiducial mass of 0.27 megaton water, one in Kamioka and the other in Korea, which receive the (anti-) muon neutrino beam of 4 MW power from J-PARC facility have potential of determining the neutrino mass hierarchy and discovering CP violation by resolving the degeneracies associated wit

    We discuss the mixing matrix V_Hd that describes the charged and neutral current interactions between ordinary down-quarks and up- and down-mirror quarks in the Littlest Higgs Model with T-parity (LHT). We point out that this matrix in addition to three mixing angles contains three physical complex phases and not only one as used in the present literature. W

    We derive the LO DGLAP evolution equation for the full Mellin moments of the truncated at $x_0$ first moment of the nonsinglet parton distribution. This "moment of moment" approach allows to determine the small-$x_0$ behaviour of the truncated first moment. We compare our predictions to results obtained from $x-$space solutions for parton distributio

    Within a pQCD inspired kinetic parton cascade we simulate the space time evolution of gluons which are produced initially in a heavy ion collision at RHIC energy. The inelastic gluonic interactions $gg \leftrightarrow ggg$ do play an important role: For various initial conditions it is found that thermalization and the close to ideal fluid dynamical behaviou

    In this work we present an extension of the Standard model as a local gauge group SU(3)c x SU(4)L x U(1)X embedded in SU(3)c x SU(4)L x U(1)Y0 x U(1)B-L gauge group. The U(1)Y0 gauge symmetry is introduced to obtain an anomaly-free three- generation model without exotic electric charges .A minimal scalar sector is considered with two Higgs 4-Plet representat

    The PVLAS collaboration has obtained results that may be interpreted in terms of a light axion-like particle, while the CAST collaboration has not found any signal of such particles. Moreover, the PVLAS results are in gross contradiction with astrophysical bounds. We develop a particle physics model with two paraphotons and with a low energy scale in which t

    We investigate filtered clover fermions, built from fat gauge links, both in one-loop perturbation theory and in numerical simulations. We use a variety of filtering recipes (APE, HYP, EXP, HEX), some of which are suitable for a HMC with dynamical fermions. A generic filtering together with a (fat-link) clover term yields fermions with much reduced chiral sy

    We investigate lattice simulations of scalar and nonabelian gauge fields in Minkowski space-time. For SU(2) gauge-theory expectation values of link variables in 3+1 dimensions are constructed by a stochastic process in an additional (5th) ``Langevin-time''. A sufficiently small Langevin step size and the use of a tilted real-time contour leads to con

    We study the confining properties of QCD with two colors across the finite density phase transition. A disorder parameter detecting dual superconductivity of the QCD vacuum is used as a probe for the confinement/deconfinement phase transition.

    I begin by discussing the basic ideas of quantum field theory (QFT). I provide a review of symmetries in physics and then move on to discuss the quark model. I then review lattice gauge theory with particular attention paid to lattice QCD and some of the associated problems. I discuss gauge fields on the lattice along with free lattice fermions. I follow thi
