The worldline representation of the one loop fermionic effective action is used to obtain the vertex operator for the pion and the sigma in QCD strings. The vertex operator of the scalar sigma is distinguished from that of the pseudo-scalar…

During inflation an axion field coupled to a gauge field through a Chern-Simons term can trigger the production of gauge quanta due to a tachyonic instability. The amplification of the gauge field modes exponentially depends on the velocity…
We prove that a system of $N$ fermions interacting with an additional particle via point interactions is stable if the ratio of the mass of the additional particle to the one of the fermions is larger than some critical $m^*$. The value of…
Dirac-Born-Infeld type effective actions reproduce many aspects of string theory classical tachyon dynamics of unstable Dp-branes. The inhomogeneous tachyon field rolling from the top of its potential forms topological defects of lower…
We discuss fermion mass generation in unified models where QCD and technicolor (or any two strongly interacting theories) have their Schwinger-Dyson equations coupled. In this case the technicolor (TC) and QCD self-energies are modified in…
Understanding the quantum dynamics of strongly interacting fermions is a problem relevant to diverse forms of matter, including high-temperature superconductors, neutron stars, and quark-gluon plasma. An appealing benchmark is offered by…
We show that for a force mediated by a vector particle coupled to a conserved U(1) charge, the apparent range and strength can depend on the size and density of the source, and the proximity to other sources. This "chameleon" effect is due…
We review recent results concerning the evolution of fermionic systems. We are interested in the mean field regime, where particles experience many weak collisions. For fermions, the mean field regime is naturally linked with a…
We study quantum corrections at the one loop level in open superstring tachyon condensation using the boundary string field theory (BSFT) method. We find that the tachyon field action has the same form as at the disc level, but with a…
Using anomalous symmetries of the cubic string field theory vertex we derive set of relations between the coefficients of the tachyon condensate. They are in agreement with the results obtained from level truncation approximation.
We consider a tachyon field whose Fourier components correspond to spatial momenta with modulus smaller than the mass parameter. The plane wave solutions have them a time evolution which is a real exponential. The field is quantized and the…
The recently discovered universal thermodynamic behaviour of dilute, strongly interacting Fermi gases also implies a universal structure in the many-body pair-correlation function at short distances, as quantified by the contact ${\cal I}$.…
Effective field theories of the strong interactions based on the approximate chiral symmetry of QCD provide a model-independent approach to low-energy hadron physics. We give a brief introduction to mesonic and baryonic chiral perturbation…
Central heavy-ion collisions may induce sizeable fluctuations of the topological charge. This effect is expected to distort the dispersion relation for the hadron masses. We construct a general setup for a compact description of this…
We show that the chiral vortical effect can exist in a nonchiral electroweak plasma in thermal equilibrium using the effective thermal masses of the fermions in the symmetric phase. We use a nonperturbative formula for the vortical current,…
Basing on the density functional theory of fermion condensation, we analyze the non-Fermi liquid behavior of strongly correlated Fermi-systems such as heavy-fermion metals. When deriving equations for the effective mass of quasiparticles,…
In the 1-dimensional matrix model one identifies the tachyon field in the asymptotic region with a nonlocal transform of the density of fermions. But there is a problem in relating the classical tachyon field with the surface profile of the…
We construct a model describing BPS brane-systems using low energy effective theory of brane-antibrane system. Both parallel branes and intersecting branes can be treated by this model. After tachyon condensation, the dynamics of…
