We study degenerate mixtures of "heavy" bosons and "light" superfluid bosons using a variational polaron transformation. We consider the Mott insulator-superfluid transition of the heavy species and find that at $T=0$ interaction favors the…
We show how the notion of {\em pseudo-bosons}, originally introduced as operators acting on some Hilbert space, can be extended to a distributional settings. In doing so, we are able to construct a rather general framework to deal with…
This document summarises the talks and discussions happened during the VBSCan Split17 workshop, the first general meeting of the VBSCan COST Action network. This collaboration is aiming at a consistent and coordinated study of vector-boson…
We address the problem of modulating a parameter onto a power-limited signal, transmitted over a discrete-time Gaussian channel and estimating this parameter at the receiver. Continuing an earlier work, where the optimal trade-off between…
We evaluate the radiative decay into a vector a pseudoscalar and a photon of several resonances dynamically generated from the vector vector interaction. The process proceeds via the decay of one of the vector components into a pseudoscalar…
The propagator and complete sets of in- and out-solutions of wave equation, together with Bogoliubov coefficients, relating these solutions, are obtained for vector $W$-boson (with gyromagnetic ratio $g=2$) in a constant electromagnetic…
In a composite model of the weak bosons the p-wave bosons are studied. The state with the lowest mass is identified with the boson, which might have been detected recently at the LHC. Specific properties of these excited bosons are studied,…
The current theoretical understanding of processes involving many weakly interacting bosons in the Standard Model and in model theories is discussed. In particular, such processes are associated with the baryon and lepton number violation…
Historically vector-meson physics arose along two different paths to be reviewed in Sections 1 and 2. In Section 3, the phenomenological consequences will be discussed with an emphasis on those aspects of the subject matter relevant in…
In the absence of a light Higgs boson, the mechanism of electroweak symmetry breaking will be best studied in processes of vector boson scattering at high mass. Various models predict resonances in this channel. Scalar and vector resonances…
The high-energy behavior of vector-boson scattering amplitudes is examined within an effective theory for non-standard self-interactions of electroweak vector-bosons. Irrespectively of whether this theory is brought into a gauge invariant…
Technical concepts are presented that improve the selfconsistent treatment of vector-mesons in a hot and dense medium. First applications concern an interacting gas of pions and rho mesons. As an extension of earlier studies we thereby…
The weak bosons consist of two fermions, bound by a new confining gauge force. The mass scale of this new interaction is determined. At energies below 0.5 TeV the standard electroweak theory is valid. A neutral isoscalar weak boson X must…
A new formulation for the study of interacting bosons on a lattice is introduced. This approach is used to give analytical expressions for the Mott insulating lobes in the phase diagram and to calculate the density-density correlation…
An unspecified strong dynamics may give rise to composite vectors sufficiently light that their interactions, among themselves or with the electroweak gauge bosons, be approximately described by an effective Lagrangian invariant under…
It is shown that next-nearest-neighbor interactions may lead to unusual paramagnetic or ferromagnetic phases which physical content is radically different from the standard phases. Actually there are several particles described by the same…
We give a detailed exposition of the "vectorized" notation for dealing with quantum operations. This notation is used to highlight the relationships between representations of completely-positive dynamics. Vectorization considerably…
I review aspects of the theory of the weak interaction in a set of lectures originally presented at the 2016 CERN-JINR European School of Particle Physics. The topics discussed are: (1) the experimental basis of the V-A structure of the…
I describe in these notes the physical properties of one dimensional interacting quantum particles. In one dimension the combined effects of interactions and quantum fluctuations lead to a radically new physics quite different from the one…
Herein an alternative model to reptation to describe concentrated polymer dynamics is developed. The model assumes that the chains act as blobs that are able to diffuse past each other in a compressed state. Allowing that the local…
