We report an approach for determination of zero-field splitting parameters from four-component relativistic calculations. Our approach involves neither perturbative treatment of spin-orbit interaction nor truncation of the spin-orbit…
The relativistic mean field model, the Zim\'anyi - Moszkowski (ZM) Lagrangian describes nuclear matter and stable finite nuclei even in the non-relativistic limit. It fails, however, to predict the correct non-relativistic spin-orbit (SO)…
We take supersymmetry in the Seiberg-Witten theory as a case study of the uses of (super)symmetry arguments in studying the ontology of four-dimensional interacting quantum field theories. Together with a double expansion, supersymmetry is…
We present a review of the mean-field approaches describing superdeformed states, which are currently used and/or being developed. As an example, we discuss in more details the properties of superdeformed A~60 nuclei, and present results of…

We study a mean-field relativistic model which is able to describe both the behavior of finitely many spin-1/2 particles like electrons and of the Dirac sea which is self-consistently polarized in the presence of the real particles. The…
We study the possible occurrence of surface pion condensation in finite nuclei in the relativistic mean field (RMF) theory. We are led to this conjecture due to the essential role of pions in few-body systems and the recent (p,n)…
A system of two fermions with different masses and interacting by the Coulomb potential is presented in a completely covariant framework. The spin-spin interaction, including the anomalous magnetic moments of the two fermions, is added by…

The real nature of nucleon-hyperon and hyperon-hyperon interaction is best understood by theoretical study of single lambda hypernuclei. Variational Monte-Carlo calculations have been done on some light lambda hypernuclei using realistic…
