In direct analogy to the 4-body decay of a heavy scalar particle, the 4-point correlation function of primordial fluctuations carries P and CP information. The CP violation appears as a P-odd angular dependence in the imaginary part of the…
We construct a realistic model of CP violation in which CP is broken in the process of dimensional reduction and orbifold compactification from a five dimensional theories with $SU(3)\times SU(3) \times SU(3)$ gauge symmetry. CP violation…
In an effort to clarify the significance of the recent observation of long-range topological charge coherence in QCD gauge configurations, we study the local topological charge distributions in two-dimensional $CP^{N-1}$ sigma models, using…
We exhibit a novel solution of the strong CP problem, which does not involve any massless particles. The low energy effective Lagrangian of our model involves a discrete spacetime independent axion field which can be thought of as a…
We address the challenging issue of how CP violation is realized in higher dimensional gauge theories without higher dimensional elementary scalar fields. In such theories interactions are basically governed by a gauge principle and…
The 1-loop effective potential in a scalar theory with quartic interaction on the space $M^{4} \times T^{n}$ for $n=2$ is calculated and is shown to be unbounded from below. This is an indication of a possible instability of the vacuum of…
We study the deconfinement phase transition in SU(N) gauge theories for $N$=2,3,4,6,8. The transition is first order for $N \ge 3$, with the strength increasing as $N$ increases. We extrapolate $T_c/\sqrt{\sigma}$ to the continuum limit for…
In this article we consider theta-expanded noncommutative gauge field theory, constructed at the first order in noncommutative parameter theta, as an effective, anomaly free theory, with one-loop renormalizable gauge sector. Related…
It is known that the Schwinger mechanism of vector-like QED theory is afflicted by a logarithmic singularity under background electromagnetic field due to a hypothetical massless charged fermion. We extend singularity analysis to a more…
Nonperturbative model of glueball is studied. The model is based on the nonperturbative quantization technique suggested by Heisenberg. 2- and 4-point Green functions for a gauge potential are expressed in terms of two scalar fields. The…
While $CP$ violation has never been observed in the strong interactions, the QCD Lagrangian admits a $CP$-odd topological interaction proportional to the so called $\theta$ angle, which weighs the contributions to the partition function…
We investigate the critical behaviour at theta=pi of the two-dimensional O(3) nonlinear sigma model with topological term on the lattice. Our method is based on numerical simulations at imaginary values of theta, and on scaling…
We study the scaling properties of the static quark potential and the ratio of the critical temperature $T_c$ to the square root of the string tension $\sigma$ in the SU(3) pure gauge theory using a renormalization group improved action. We…
The CP^3 spin model is simulated at large correlation lengths in two dimensions. An overrelaxation algorithm is employed which yields reduced critical slowing down with dynamical exponents z around unity. We compare our results with recent…
We have applied a new noncompact, gauge-invariant, Monte Carlo method to simulate the U(1), SU(2), and SU(3) gauge theories on 8^4 and 12^4 lattices. For U(1) the Creutz ratios of the Wilson loops agree with the exact results for beta > 0.5…
We study a number of different ingredients related to $\theta$ dependence, the non-dispersive contribution in topological susceptibility with the "wrong" sign, topological sectors in gauge theories, and related subjects using a simple…

We consider a new effective symmetry that acts on a gauge invariant Lagrangian. We show that the standard model after spontaneous symmetry breakdown is invariant under this symmetry which identifies up to a scale factor the gauge parameter…
We consider Dirac monopoles embedded into SU(N) gauge theory with theta-term for $\theta = 4\pi M $ (where $M$ is half-integer for $N = 2$ and is integer for $N>2$). Due to the theta - term those monopoles obtain the SU(N) charge and become…
After developing in ref.[1] a SU(2)left x U(1) gauge theory for J=0 mesons, I show in the case of two generations that: - the electroweak mass eigenstates differ, especially in the K and D sector, from what they are assumed to be on the…
