We consider a string inspired non-supersymmetric extension of the standard model with gauged anomalous U(1) flavor symmetries. Consistency requires the Green-Schwarz mechanism to cancel mixed anomalies. The additional required scalars…
Recent experiments on fermions in synthetic gauge fields result in systems with a spin-orbit coupling along one spatial axis, a detuning field, and a Zeeman field. We show theoretically that the presence of all three results in interesting…
We consider quantum error-correcting subsystem codes whose gauge generators realize a translation-invariant, free-fermion-solvable spin model. In this setting, errors are suppressed by a Hamiltonian whose terms are the gauge generators of…
We follow the example of Cabibbo by revising the Standard Model (SM) to present a universal mass structure for fermions. A universal Higgs coupling for each species of fundamental fermions moves the SM towards a Theory of Matter, albeit…
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 addition of gauge singlet fermions to the Standard Model Lagrangian renders the neutrinos massive and allows one to explain all that is experimentally known about neutrino masses and lepton mixing. At the same time, the gauge singlet…
We investigate the production and the decays of pseudo-Goldstone bosons (PGBs) predicted by technicolor theories with the GIM mechanism (TC-GIM). The TC-GIM models contain exotic fermion families that do not interact under weak $SU(2)$, but…
We propose a generalized Zee-Babu model with a global $U(1)$ B-L symmetry, in which we classify the model in terms of the number of the hypercharge $N/2$ of the isospin doublet exotic charged fermions. Corresponding to each of the number of…
Precise measurements of the lepton properties provide stringent tests of the Standard Model and accurate determinations of its parameters. We overview the present status of tau physics, highlighting the most recent developments, and discuss…
We consider a helical system of fermions with a generic spin (or pseudospin) orbit coupling. Using the equation of motion approach for the single-particle distribution functions, and a mean-field decoupling of the higher order distribution…
In this paper we discuss the bihamiltonian formulation of the (rational XXX) Gaudin models of spin-spin interaction, generalized to the case of sl(r)-valued spins. In particular, we focus on the homogeneous models. We find a pencil of…
The nature of charge transport within a correlated background medium can be described by spinless fermions coupled to bosons in the model introduced by Edwards. Combining numerical density matrix renormalization group and analytical…
Supersymmetry is an algebraic property of a quantum Hamiltonian that, by giving every boson a fermionic superpartner and vice versa, may underpin physics beyond the Standard Model. Fractional bosonic and fermionic quasiparticles are…
The class of relativistic spin particle models reveals the `quantization' of parameters already at the classical level. The special parameter values emerge if one requires the maximality of classical global continuous symmetries. The same…
We calculate the conductance through rings with few sites $L$ described by the $t-J$ model, threaded by a magnetic flux $\Phi$ and weakly coupled to conducting leads at two arbitrary sites. The model can describe a circular array of quantum…
It is shown that gauge theories with fermions are most naturally studied via a polar decomposition of the field variable. This is the fermionic analog of the preprint cond-mat/0210673. The hope is that these two put together will enable the…
The Hofstadter model describes non-interacting fermions on a lattice in the presence of an external magnetic field. Motivated by the plethora of solid-state phases emerging from electron interactions, we consider an interacting version of…
We consider a class of gauged $U(1)$ extensions of the Standard Model (SM), where the light neutrino masses are generated by an inverse seesaw mechanism. In addition to the three right handed neutrinos, we add three singlet fermions and…
Experimentally it has been known for a long time that the electric charges of the observed particles appear to be quantized. An approach to understanding electric charge quantization that can be used for gauge theories with explicit $U(1)$…
We present a preliminary study of a chiral-gauge-invariant Wilson term for the Standard Model on a lattice. In the strong coupling limit for doublers, this Wilson term shows that the doublers of leptons (quarks) are anti-baryons…
