The calculation of the quartic mass terms at order \alpha_s^3 to the hadronic R ratio is described. It is based on the operator product expansion for the quark current correlator, combined with an application of the renormalization group…
The paper proposes an algorithm for regularization of the self-energy expressions for a Dirac particle that meets the relativistic and gauge invariance requirements.
Seeking mass patterns is a key to decoding the unknown flavor puzzles in particle physics. Inspired by quark hierarchical masses, the mass matrix can universally be factorized into a family-diagonal phase matrix $K_L^q$ and a real symmetric…
We show renormalization group invariants in neutrino sector. These are found from a simple analytical discussion of Majorana mass matrix for light neutrinos. It is shown that the invariants are obtained by taking ratios among elements of…
For the purpose of deriving the observed nearly tribimaximal neutrino mixing, a possible quark mass matrix model is investigated based on a yukawaon model. The neutrino mass matrix is related to the up-quark mass matrix. Five observable…
The conventional quark mass is not continuous at thresholds. In this paper, we derive matchinginvariant quark masses which are continuous everywhere. They are expanded as an obvious function of the logarithmic Lambda scaled energy. The…
I review the structure of the leading infrared renormalon divergence of the relation between the pole mass and the $\overline{\rm MS}$ mass of a heavy quark, with applications to the top, bottom and charm quark. That the pole quark mass…
A quark mass matrix model $M_q=M_e^{1/2} O_q M_e^{1/2} $ is proposed where $M_e^{1/2}={\rm diag}(\sqrt{m_e},\sqrt{m_\mu},\sqrt{m_\tau})$ and $O_q$ is a unit matrix plus a rank one matrix. Up- and down-quark mass matrices $M_u$ and $M_d$ are…
For arbitrary scalar QFTs in four dimensions, renormalisation group equations of quartic and cubic interactions, mass terms, as well as field anomalous dimensions are computed at three-loop order in the $\overline{\text{MS}}$ scheme.…
In this article I present the motivation for introducing the invariant functions of mass matrices, based on my own work, and give some examples. Since their introduction in 1985, in the framework of the standard electroweak model, they have…
We have derived the popularly used parametrization formulae for quark masses at low densities and modified them at high densities within the mass-density-dependent model. The results are applied to investigate the lowest density for the…
In supersymmetric models, the well-known tension between naturalness and experimental constraints is relieved if the squarks and sleptons of the first two generations are superheavy, with masses of order 10 TeV, and all other superpartners…
We introduce a new parameterisation of the effect of unknown corrections from new physics on quark and lepton mass matrices. This parameterisation is used in order to study how the hierarchies of quark masses and mixing angles are modified…
Naturalness of the neutrino mass hierarchy and mixing is studied. First we select among 12 neutrino mixing patterns a few patterns, which could form the natural neutrino mass matrix. Further we show that if the Dirac neutrino mass matrix is…
We have attempted to extend the parameter space of the elements of the texture 4 zero Hermitian quark mass matrices, to include the case of `weak hierarchy' amongst them along with the usually considered `strong hierarchy' case. This has…
The masses of quarks and leptons suggest a strong hierarchical structure. We argue that their patterns can be reproduced through the introduction of a new Abelian symmetry. The data suggest that this symmetry is anomalous. We suggest that…
We present a class of Ansatze for the up and down quark mass matrices which leads approximately to: |V_{us}| \sim \sqrt{m_d / m_s}, |V_{cb}| \sim m_s / m_b, and |V_{ub} / V_{cb}| \sim \sqrt{m_u / m_c}. Sizes of the Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix…
We present a new solution to the electroweak hierarchy problem. We introduce $N$ copies of the Standard Model with varying values of the Higgs mass parameter. This generically yields a sector whose weak scale is parametrically removed from…
An exact renormalization group equation is derived for the free energy of matrix models. The renormalization group equation turns out to be nonlinear for matrix models, as opposed to linear for vector models. An algorithm for determining…
We consider different extensions of the standard model which can give rise to the small active neutrino masses through seesaw mechanisms, and their mixing. These tiny neutrino masses are generated at some high energy scale by the heavy…
