We consider configurations of stacks of orientifold planes and D-branes wrapped on a non trivial internal space of the structure {(Gepner model)^{c=3n} x T^{2(3-n)}}/Z_N, for n=1,2,3. By performing simple moddings by discrete symmetries of…
We consider a general brane construction for realizing chiral four-dimensional gauge theories. The advantage of the construction is the simplicity and the possibility of realizing a large class of models existing in the literature. We start…
The structure of singularities in perturbative massless gauge theories is investigated in coordinate space. The pinch singularities in coordinate-space integrals occur at configurations of vertices which have a direct interpretation in…
New mixing structures between chiral generations of elementary particles at low energy are shown in a vectorlike model with a horizontal symmetry SU(1,1). In this framework the chiral model including odd number chiral generations is…
We study M-theory on two classes of manifolds of Spin(7) holonomy that are developing an isolated conical singularity. We construct explicitly a new class of Spin(7) manifolds and analyse in detail the topology of the corresponding…
Recently, the contributions of chiral logarithms predicted by quenched chiral perturbation theory have been extracted from lattice calculations of hadron masses. We argue that a detailed comparison of random matrix theory and lattice…
New data from parity-violating experiments on the deuteron now allow isolation of the strange-quark contribution to the nucleon magnetic moment, G_M^s(0), without the uncertainty surrounding the anapole moment of the nucleon. Still, best…
A recently proposed formulation of chiral lattice gauge theories is reviewed, in which the locality and gauge invariance of the theory can be preserved if the fermion representation of the gauge group is anomaly-free.
Basing on the theory for arbitrary oriented surfaces, we developed the theory of the moir\'e effect for cylindrical single-layer objects in the paraxial approximation. With using the dual grids, the moir\'e effect in the plane gratings is…
Based on an effective chiral theory of pseudoscalar, vector, and axial-vector mesons, the coefficients of the chiral perturbation theory are predicted. There is no new parameter in these predictions.
Using F-theory we construct 4D ${\cal N}=1$ SUGRA theories with the Standard Model gauge group, three chiral generations, and matter parity in order to forbid all dimension four baryon and lepton number violating operators. The underlying…
In this paper we will survey some recent developments in the last decade or so on variation of Geometric Invariant Theory and its applications to Birational Geometry such as the weak Factorization Theorems of nonsingular projective…
Non-minimal gauge models with exact unbroken improper space-time symmetries are constructed and their cosmological and astrophysical implications explored.
The renormalization of singular chiral potentials as applied to NN scattering and the structure of the deuteron is discussed. It is shown how zero range theories may be implemented non-perturbatively as constrained from known long range NN…
A differential geometric approach to singular perturbation theory is presented. It is shown that singular perturbation problems such as multiple-scale and boundary layer problems can be treated more easily on a differential geometric basis.…
We study in detail the quantization of a model which apparently describes chiral bosons. The model is based on the idea that the chiral condition could be implemented through a linear constraint. We show that the space of states is of…
We first briefly review a treatment of the scalars in meson meson scattering based on a non-linear chiral Lagrangian, with unitarity implemented by a "local" modification of the scalar propagators. It is shown that the main results are…
Topological quantum states have been proposed and investigated on two-dimensional flat surfaces or lattices with different geometries like the plane, cylinder and torus. Here, we study quantum anomalous Hall (QAH) or Chern insulator (CI)…
Consequences of the alternative mechanism of spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry without formation of a large quark antiquark condensate is reviewed. Emphasis is put on the resulting picture of light quark masses.
We propose a new (chiral) description of partially-massless fields in $4d$, including the partially-massless graviton, that is similar to the pure connection formulation for gravity and massless higher spin fields, the latter having a clear…
