We discuss upon recent progress in our knowledge of the large order behavior in perturbation theory of the pole mass and the singlet static potential. We also discuss about the renormalon subtracted scheme, a matching scheme between QCD and…
We study a one-dimensional system of two-component fermions in the limit of strong attractive particle-particle interactions. First, we analyze scattering in the corresponding few-body problem, which is analytically solvable via Bethe…
We develop a new method that allows us to map models of interacting fermions onto bosonic models describing collective excitations in an arbitrary dimension. This mapping becomes exact in the thermodynamic continuous time limit. The boson…
Thermal field theory is indispensable for describing hot and dense systems. Yet perturbative calculations are often stymied by a host of energy scales, and tend to converge slowly. This means that precise results require the apt use of…
We propose a new framework to represent the perturbative S-matrix which is well-defined for all quantum field theories of massless particles, constructed from tree-level amplitudes and integrable term-by-term. This representation is derived…
The chiral expansion of nucleon properties such as mass, magnetic moment, and magnetic polarizability are investigated in the framework of chiral perturbation theory, with and without the heavy-baryon expansion. The analysis makes use of a…
The mass matrices of charged fermions have a simple structure if expressed in powers of the small parameter sigma=(m_c/m_t)^{1/2}. It is suggested that the mass matrix of the three heavy neutrinos occuring in grand unified theories can be…
We explore the non-Hermitian extension of quantum chemistry in the complex plane and its link with perturbation theory. We observe that the physics of a quantum system is intimately connected to the position of complex-valued energy…
We study the matter bispectrum of large structure by comparing theoretical models (perturbation theories and halo models) to numerical simulations using shape and amplitude correlators. We show that among the perturbation theories at one…
We introduce a scheme for efficiently describing pure states of strongly correlated fermions in higher dimensions using unitary circuits featuring a causal cone. A local way of computing local expectation values is presented. We formulate a…
A generalized chiral Schwinger model is studied by means of perturbative techniques. Explicit expressions are obtained, both for bosonic and fermionic propagators, and compared to the ones derived by means of functional techniques. In…
Sum rules in effective field theories, predicated upon causality, place restrictions on scattering amplitudes mediated by effective contact interactions. Through unitarity of the $S$-matrix, these imply that the size of higher dimensional…
A formalism for studying heavy quarks in terms of model Dyson-Schwinger equations is developed. The formalism is the natural extension of a technique which has proved successful in a number of studies of light hadron physics. The dressed…
We develop a universal model based on the classical complex matter fields that allow the optimal mapping of many real-life NP-hard combinatorial optimisation problems into the problem of minimising a spin Hamiltonian. We explicitly…
Charge sum rules for quark fragmentation functions are studied. The simultaneous implementation of the conservation of electric and baryon charges, strangeness and isospin symmetry is achieved when the fragmentation to both mesons and…
Recently-developed variational perturbation expansions converge exponentially fast for positive coupling constants. They do not, however, possess the correct left-hand cut in the complex coupling constant plane, implying a wrong large-order…
We consider the covariant formulation of the kaon mixing in the context of the propagator method. It results important to check the possibility of a sizable effect in the vacuum regeneration of kaons. We discuss all those terms which may…
A brief review of the problem of the determination of light-quark masses from QCD sum rules for the correlators of scalar and pseudoscalar currents is given. Special attention is paid to the description of the large-$N_f$ results, obtained…
We extend an implicit regularization scheme to be applicable in the $n$-dimensional space-time. Within this scheme divergences involving parity violating objects can be consistently treated without recoursing to dimensional continuation.…
We review the large Nc behavior of light scalar and vector resonances generated from unitarized meson-meson scattering amplitudes at one loop in Chiral Perturbation Theory. The vectors nicely follow the behavior expected for qqbar states,…
