We derive positivity bounds on EFT coefficients in theories where boosts are spontaneously broken. We employ the analytic properties of the retarded Green's function of conserved currents (or of the stress-energy tensor) and assume the…
Many-body states described by a Schr\"{o}dinger equation include states of overlapping waves of non-vanishing interaction energies. These peculiar states formed in many-body transitions remain in asymptotic regions, and lead a new component…
Excited states in molecules can be difficult to investigate and generally require methods that are either computationally expensive or are not universally accurate. Recent research has focused on using higher-energy Slater determinants as…
We investigate the origin of next-to-leading power corrections to the event shapes thrust and $c$-parameter, at next-to-leading order. For both event shapes we trace the origin of such terms in the exact calculation, and compare with a…
A model detector undergoing constant, infinite-duration acceleration converges to an equilibrium state described by the Hawking-Unruh temperature $T_a=(a/2\pi)(\hbar/c)$. To relate this prediction to experimental observables, a point-like…
The energies of molecular excited states arise as solutions to the electronic Schr\"{o}dinger equation and are often compared to experiment. At the same time, nuclear quantum motion is known to be important and to induce a red-shift of…
We study, in the quenched approximation, Luescher's relation between pion scattering lengths and the finite-volume energy of two pions at rest. The quenched relation is drastically different from the full theory one; in particular,…
A critical look at the Landau-Lifshitz equation, which has been recently advocated as an "exact" relativistic classical equation for the motion of a point charge with radiation reaction, demonstrates that it generally does not conserve…
Second order Newton equations of motion for a radiating particle are presented. It is argued that the trajectories obeying them also satisfy the Abraham-Lorentz-Dirac (ALD) equations for general 3D motions in the non-relativistic and…
We compute the leading radiative correction to the Casimir force between two parallel plates in the $\lambda\Phi^4$ theory. Dirichlet and periodic boundary conditions are considered. A heuristic approach, in which the Casimir energy is…
It is well known that cross-sections in perturbative QCD receive large corrections from soft and collinear radiation, whose properties must be resummed to all orders in the coupling. Whether or not the universal properties of this radiation…
In this work we study the quantum Toda lattice, developing the asymptotic Bethe ansatz method first used by Sutherland. Despite its known limitations we find, on comparing with Gutzwiller's exact method, that it works well in this…
We sum up the next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic virtual electroweak corrections to the high energy asymptotics of the neutral current four-fermion processes for light fermions to all orders in the coupling constants using the evolution…
We discuss the subleading power corrections to one-jet production processes in $N$-jettiness subtraction using vector-boson plus jet production as an example. We analytically derive the next-to-leading power leading logarithmic corrections…
We consider corrections to the ratio of the shear viscosity to the entropy density in strongly coupled nonabelian plasmas using the AdS/CFT correspondence. In particular, higher derivative terms with the five-form RR flux, which have been…
We study two particles colliding in a $d$-dimensional finite volume and generalize L\"uscher's formula to arbitrary $d$ spatial dimensions. We obtain the $s$- and $p$-wave approximations of the generalized L\"uscher's formula. For resonant…
We revisit the calculation of curvature corrections to the pp-wave energy of type IIA string states on AdS_4 x CP^3 initiated in arXiv:0807.1527. Using the near pp-wave Hamiltonian found in arXiv:0912.2257, we compute the first…

The dynamics of the Luttinger model after a quantum quench is studied. We compute in detail one and two-point correlation functions for two types of quenches: from a non-interacting to an interacting Luttinger model and vice-versa. In the…
We develop an analytical expression for the self-energy of the infinite-dimensional Hubbard model that is correct in a number of different limits. The approach represents a generalization of the iterative perturbation theory to arbitrary…
