In the recent times, test of Lorentz Invariance has been used as a means to probe theories of physics beyond the standard model. We describe a simple way of utilizing the polarimeters, which are a critical beam instrument at precision and…
With the advent of precision data, cosmology has become an extremely powerful tool for probing particle physics. The prime example of this is the cosmological bound on light neutrino masses. Here I review the current status of cosmological…
We review the framework we and our collaborators have developed for the study of one-loop quantum corrections to extended field configurations in renormalizable quantum field theories. We work in the continuum, transforming the standard…
We have searched for central production of a pair of photons with high transverse energies in $p\bar p$ collisions at $\sqrt{s} = 1.8$ TeV using $70 pb^{-1}$ of data collected with the D\O detector at the Fermilab Tevatron in 1994--1996. If…
In supersymmetric models with minimal particle content and without left-right squark mixing, the conventional wisdom is that the 125.6 GeV Higgs boson mass implies top squark masses of O(10) TeV, far beyond the reach of colliders. This…
We compute the total top-quark pair production cross section at the Tevatron and LHC based on approximate NNLO results, and on the summation of threshold logarithms and Coulomb enhancements to all orders with next-to-next-to-leading…
The clustering dipole in the 2MASS galaxy survey converges on a scale of ~400Mpc to the local peculiar velocity inferred from the Cosmic-Microwave-Background dipole. I show that this limits the graviton mass in Yukawa theories of gravity to…
Using the known resummation of virtual corrections together with knowledge of the leading-log structure of real radiation in a parton shower, we derive analytic expressions for the resummed real radiation after they have been integrated…
We present an improved calculation of the light CP-even Higgs boson pole mass in the MSSM based on the FlexibleEFTHiggs hybrid method. The calculation resums large logarithms to all orders and includes power-suppressed terms at fixed order.…
The volume coefficient $K$(=incompressibility of the nuclear matter), the Coulomb coefficient $K_c$, and the volume-symmetry coefficient $K_{vs}$ of the nucleus incompressibility are studied in the framework of the relativistic mean field…
We provide a systematic renormalization group formalism to study the mass effects in the relation of the pole mass and short-distance masses such as the $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ mass of a heavy quark $Q$, coming from virtual loop insertions…

We prove a Central Limit Theorem for the linear statistics of two-dimensional Coulomb gases, with arbitrary inverse temperature and general confining potential, at the macroscopic and mesoscopic scales and possibly near the boundary of the…
Duan, Wu and Zhou (FOCS 2023) recently obtained the improved upper bound on the exponent of square matrix multiplication $\omega<2.3719$ by introducing a new approach to quantify and compensate the ``combination loss" in prior analyses of…
The corrections for two pion correlations due to electromagnetic final state interactions at high secondary multiplicities are investigated. It is shown that these result in a noticeable deviation from the standard Gamov factor. This…
The newly published top mass prediction of 85.1 GeV conflicts with indirect limits on the top mass, based on precision measurements interpreted by calculations using dimensional regularization. The top quark contribution to part of the…
The Coulomb energy of a charge that is uniformly distributed on some set is maximized (among sets of given volume) by balls. It is shown here that near-maximizers are close to balls.
We investigate top quark pair production near the threshold where the pair invariant mass $M_{t\bar{t}}$ approaches $2m_t$, which provides sensitive observables to extract the top quark mass $m_t$. Using the effective field theory methods,…
We present a systematic analysis of Coulomb corrections for leptonic ($B^0_{d,s}\to \ell^+\ell^-$), semileptonic ($B^0_{d,s}\to h^0\,\ell^+\ell^-$, $B^0_{d,s}\to V^0\ell^+\ell^-$) and radiative leptonic ($B^0_{d,s}\to \gamma \ell^+\ell^-$)…
These are the lecture notes of a course taught at the Park City Mathematics Institute in June 2017. They are intended to review some recent results, obtained in large part with Thomas Lebl\'e, on the statistical mechanics of systems of…
