A few topics on the expansion in heavy quark mass are discussed. The theoretical framework is the Wilson Operator Product Expansion rather than the Heavy Quark Effective Theory.
Sutherland showed that the XYZ quantum spin-chain Hamiltonian commutes with the eight-vertex model transfer matrix, so that Baxter's subsequent tour de force proves the integrability of both. The proof requires parametrising the Boltzmann…
In a large class of models for Weakly Interacting Massive Particles (WIMPs), the WIMP mass $M$ lies far above the weak scale $m_W$. This work identifies universal Sudakov-type logarithms $\sim \alpha \log^2 (2\,M/m_W)$ that spoil the naive…
First, an algebraic criterion for integrability is discussed -the so-called `superintegrability'- and some results on the classification of superintegrable quantum spin Hamiltonians based on sl(2) are obtained. Next, the massive phases of…
The longstanding issue of general covariance in effective models of quantum gravity is addressed, which arises when canonical quantum gravity leads to a semiclassical model described by an effective Hamiltonian constraint. In the context of…
We consider integrable open chain models formulated in terms of generators of affine Hecke algebras. The hierarchy of commutative elements (which are analogs of the commutative transfer-matrices) are constructed by using the fusion…
We derive a formula that expresses the local spin and field operators of fundamental graded models in terms of the elements of the monodromy matrix. This formula is a quantum analogue of the classical inverse scattering transform. It…
We consider correlation functions containing the axial current of one light and one heavy quark in the static approximation as well as in full QCD, using the lattice regularization. Up to one-loop order of perturbation theory, we study the…
There are known to be integrable Sutherland models associated to every real root system -- or, which is almost equivalent, to every real reflection group. Real reflection groups are special cases of complex reflection groups. In this paper…
I consider a special atomic scattering problem where the target atom has distinct "soft" and "hard" excitation modes. I demonstrate that in this problem the integration out of "short-distance" (or "high-energy") physics may occur…
Efficiency of time-evolution of quantum observables, and thermal states of quenched hamiltonians, is studied using time-dependent density matrix renormalization group method in a family of generic quantum spin chains which undergo a…
We apply the effective field theoretic (EFT) approach to resum the large perturbative logarithms arising when partonic hard scattering cross-sections are taken to the threshold limit. We consider deep inelastic scattering, Drell-Yan lepton…
An exactly solvable model of a quantum spin interacting with a spin environment is considered. The interaction is chosen to be such that the state of the environment is conserved. The reduced density matrix of the spin is calculated for…
We discuss systems containing a heavy quark and a heavy antiquark in the infinite mass limit of QCD. Studying the limit of equal velocities for both heavy particles, we formulate an effective theory approach to heavy quarkonia-like systems.…
We consider the preparation of all the eigenstates of spin chains using quantum circuits. It is known that generic eigenstates of free-fermionic spin chains can be prepared with circuits whose depth grows only polynomially with the length…
We study two dimensional systems with extended conformal symmetry generated by the ${\mathcal W}_3$ algebra. These are expected to have an infinite number of commuting conserved charges, which we refer to as the quantum Boussinesq charges.…
We consider integrable models of the Haldane-Shastry type with open boundary conditions. We define monodromy matrices, obeying the reflection equation, which generate the symmetries of these models. Using a map to the Calogero-Sutherland…
Quantum impurity models (QIMs) are ubiquitous throughout physics. As simplified toy models they provide crucial insights for understanding more complicated strongly correlated systems, while in their own right are accurate descriptions of…

We discuss recent endeavours in connecting twistor theory to higher-spin theories and the IKKT- matrix model. Starting with a brief review on higher-spin algebra hs in four-dimensional target space, we elucidate how higher-spin symmetry can…
