The evolution of properties and interactions of elementary particles is described, beginning with the Planck scale of $10^{19}$ GeV. The description is based on the hypothesis that high-temperature (high-energy) limit of the Standard Model…
The variational approach to Yang-Mills theory in Coulomb gauge is extended to full QCD. For the quark sector we use a trial wave functional, which goes beyond the previously used BCS-type state and which explicitly contains the coupling of…
We consider the Berlin-Kac spherical model for supercritical densities under a periodic lattice energy function which has finitely many non-degenerate global minima. Energy functions arising from nearest neighbour interactions on a…
The Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati model introduces a parameter, the cross-over scale $r_c$, setting the scale where higher dimensional effects are important. In order to agree with observations and to explain the current acceleration of the…
We consider a supersymmetric QCD with soft supersymmetry breaking terms as the dynamics for the electroweak symmetry breaking. We find various advantages compared to the non-supersymmetric models, such as a natural incorporation of the…
The generating functional of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory at order O(Q^2) in the mean field approximation (with a pseudoscalar source coupling which is consistent with the PCAC-Ward identities on the current quark level) has been…
The Dualized Standard Model which gives explanations for both fermion generations and Higgs fields has already been used to calculate fermion mass and mixing parameters with success. In this paper, we extend its application to low energy…
Motivated by current interest in quantum confinement potentials, especially with respect to the Stark spectroscopy of new types of quantum wells, we examine several novel one-dimensional singular oscillators. A Green function method is…
The Coulomb gauge model of QCD is studied with the introduction of a confining potential into the scalar part of the vector potential. Using a Green function formalism, we derive the self-energy for this model, which has both scalar and…
The standard procedure to determine (analytically) the values of the quark masses is to relate QCD two-point functions to experimental data in the framework of QCD sum rules. In the case of the light quark sector, the ideal Green function…
A model is considered in which the scale of the heavy singlet neutrinos is a few orders of magnitude below the grand unification scale and where right-handed vector bosons play still a negligible role. In a basis with diagonal up-quark and…
We study $N$ interacting massless Dirac fermions confined in a two-dimensional quantum dot. Physical realizations of this problem include a graphene monolayer and the surface state of a strong topological insulator. We consider both a…
We present a novel treatment for calculating the in-medium quark condensates. The advantage of this approach is that one does not need to make further assumptions on the derivatives of model parameters with respect to the quark current…
We consider the Higgs potential in generalizations of the Standard Model. The possibility of the potential to develop two almost degenerate minima is explored. This would imply that QCD matter at two distinct sets of quark masses is…
We discuss a test of the Standard Model fermion mass origin in models of dynamical electroweak symmetry breaking. The couplings of composite pseudoscalar resonances to top quarks allow to distinguish high-scale Extended-Technicolor-type…
The system of N scalar particles with Grassmann-valued color charges plus the color SU(3) Yang-Mills field is reformulated on spacelike hypersurfaces. The Dirac observables are found and the physical invariant mass of the system in the…
Employing scalar QCD we study the gluon emission of heavy quarks created by the interaction with light quarks considered as dynamical scattering centers. We develop approximation formulas for the high energy limit and study when the full…
Dark Matter (DM) models providing possible alternative solutions to the small- scale crisis of standard cosmology are nowadays of growing interest. We consider DM interacting with light hidden fermions via well motivated fundamental…
We provide a complete extension of Minimal Walking Technicolor able to account for the standard model fermion masses. The model is supersymmetric at energies greater or equal to the technicolor compositeness scale. We integrate out, at the…
The behavior of the two-particle Green's function in QED is analyzed in the limit when one of the particles becomes infinitely massive. It is found that the dependences of the Green's function on the relative times of the ingoing and…
