We describe how complications encountered in the extraction of V_us from flavor-breaking hadronic tau decay sum rules, in particular those associated with the slower than previously anticipated convergence of the relevant D=2 OPE series,…
We derive all order soft gluon resummation in dijet azimuthal angular correlation in hadronic collisions at the next-to-leading logarithmic level. The relevant coefficients for the Sudakov resummation factor, the soft and hard factors, are…

We derive the form factors relevant for decays of pseudo-scalar mesons corresponding to the semi-leptonic decay B->D l nu. The simulations are performed in the quenched approximation at beta=6.0 and beta=6.2 using a non-perturbatively…
The semileptonic decay B->pi is studied starting from a simple quark model that takes into account the effect of the B* resonance. A novel, multiply subtracted, Omnes dispersion relation has been implemented to extend the predictions of the…
In this paper we develop a lattice-based computational model focused on bone resorption by osteoclasts in a single cortical basic multicellular unit (BMU). Our model takes into account the interaction of osteoclasts with the bone matrix,…
We establish a new weak coupling limit in F-theory. The new limit may be thought of as the process in which a local model bubbles off from the rest of the Calabi-Yau. The construction comes with a small deformation parameter $t$ such that…

The hadronic mass distribution in semileptonic B-meson decays can be used for extracting the charmless part and thus determining the |V_ub/V_cb| ratio. We take into account first-order perturbative as well as non-perturbative QCD…
We report on a study of the branching fractions for the exclusive charmless semileptonic B decay modes B to pi+ l nu, B to pi0 l nu, B to rho+ l nu, B to rho0 l nu and B to omega l nu, using events tagged by fully reconstructing one of the…
In order to study the end-point spectrum of inclusive semileptonic $b \rightarrow u$ decays, we investigate the parton model motivated by deep inelastic scattering process. The reliability of the model is carefully examined by comparing the…

We report the results of a study of the exclusive charmless semileptonic decay, B --> pi l nu, undertaken with approximately 227 million BBbar pairs collected at the Upsilon(4S) resonance with the BaBar detector. The analysis uses events in…
Large deep learning models have achieved remarkable success but are resource-intensive, posing challenges such as memory usage. We introduce CURing, a novel model compression method based on CUR matrix decomposition, which approximates…
We perform the simultaneous $|V_{ub}|$ and $|V_{cb}|$ extractions with only the exclusive $\Lambda_b$ decays of $\Lambda_b\to (p,\Lambda_c^+)\mu\bar \nu_\mu$, $\Lambda_b\to p\pi^-$ and $\Lambda_b\to \Lambda_c^+ (\pi^-, D^-)$. We obtain that…
An analytic ghost-free model for the QCD running coupling $\alpha(Q^2)$ is proposed. It is constructed from a more general approach we developed particularly for investigating physical observables of the type $F(Q^2)$ in regions that are…
Excited vector mesons, some of which are predicted to include gluonic excitation in their wavefunctions, and certain classes of axial vector mesons, some of which are implicated in the decay of spin-exotic mesons, decay dominantly to…
