Chiral lagrangians provide a model independent description of the strongly interacting symmetry breaking sector. In this work it is first reviewed the LHC sensitivity to the chiral parameters (in the hardest case of non-resonant low-energy…
Dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking (DEWSB) has been a viable option for the completion of the standard model for over thirty years. Precision electroweak studies indicate that the new strong interactions that break EW symmetry cannot…
The common lore dictates that extra dimensional theories loose predictive power at energies just above the compatification scale, due to the power-law running of bulk coupling. We show that five-dimensional gauge-Yukawa theories can be…
In the general MSSM, chirally-enhanced corrections (to Yukawa couplings) are induced by gluino-squark, chargino-sfermion and neutralino-sfermion loops and can numerically compete with, or even dominate over, tree-level contributions, due to…

We compute the order $\alpha_s$ QCD corrections to the density matrix for the decay of a neutral Higgs boson $\phi$ with (in)definite CP parity into a quark antiquark pair, respectively the QED corrections for the decay into a pair of…
We revisit the WMAP dark matter constraints on Yukawa Unification in the presence of massive neutrinos. The large lepton mixing indicated by the data may modify the predictions for the bottom quark mass, enabling Yukawa unification also for…
A three-dimensional effective theory of Polyakov loops has recently been derived from Wilson's Yang-Mills lattice action by means of a strong coupling expansion. It is valid in the confined phase up to the deconfinement phase transition,…

We discuss the violation of the equality of the gauge coupling and gaugino coupling in the presence of soft supersymmetry breaking. Although this is a hard supersymmetry breaking effect, there are finite contributions to this difference…
We compute corrections to precision electroweak observables in supersymmetry in the limit that scalar superpartners are very massive and decoupled. This leaves charginos and neutralinos and a Standard Model-like Higgs boson as the only…
Building on recent work by N. Arkani-Hamed and the present authors, we construct realistic models that break supersymmetry dynamically and give rise to composite quarks and leptons, all in a single strongly-coupled sector. The most…
The group E_6 for grand unification is combined with the generation symmetry group SO(3) x Z(2). The coupling matrices in the Yukawa interaction are identified with the vacuum expectation values of scalar flavons. The symmetric part of this…
We compute the order alpha_s^3 (next-to-leading) corrections to the Wilson coefficients of the Delta F=2 effective Hamiltonian in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with completely arbitrary soft terms. These results are relevant for…
In this article we discuss the accuracy of effective one-dimensional theories used to describe the behavior of ultracold atomic ensembles confined in quantum wires by a harmonic trap. We derive within a fully many-body approach the…
It is observed that, at short range, the field equations of general relativity admit a line element that takes the form of Yukawa potential. The result leads to the possibility that strong interaction may also be described by field…
In this work we study the behavior of the effective scalar potential at zero and finite temperature of the scotogenic model. In particular, we analyze the impact of the Yukawa couplings associated to the right--handed neutrinos on the…

Very precise measurements of masses and cross sections, with errors of <1%, are expected to be achievable with a future linear collider. Such an accuracy gives sensitivity at the level of quantum corrections, which therefore must be…
