We study the structure of resonances as derived from the exactly solvable Lippmann-Schwinger equation for a one-dimensional square well potential. Within this framework, we discuss the concept of resonance form factors, and the relation of…

We extend to characteristic two recent results about isotropy of quadratic forms over function fields. In particular, we provide a characterization of function fields not only of quadratic forms but also more generally of polynomials in…
A method to construct free field realizations for the form factors of diagonal factorized scattering theories is described. Form factors are constructed from linear functionals over an associative `form factor algebra', which in particular…
The generating functional for Green functions of quark currents is given in closed form to next-to-leading order in the low-energy expansion for chiral SU(3), including one-loop amplitudes with up to three meson propagators. Matrix elements…
We study some measure partition problems: Cut the same positive fraction of $d+1$ measures in $\mathbb R^d$ with a hyperplane or find a convex subset of $\mathbb R^d$ on which $d+1$ given measures have the same prescribed value. For both…
Hadron wave functions and form factors can be extracted using four-point correlators. Stochastic techniques are used to estimate the all to all propagators, which are required for the exact calculation of four-point functions. We apply the…
In this paper we study the reduction curves of a braid, and how they can be used to decompose the braid into simpler ones in a precise way, which does not correspond exactly to the decomposition given by Thurston theory. Then we study how a…
We give a necessary and sufficient condition for a map defined on a simply-connected quasiconvex metric space to factor through a tree. In case the target is the Euclidean plane and the map is H\"older continuous with exponent bigger than…

We review the calculations of form factors and coupling constants in vertices with charm mesons in the framework of QCD sum rules. We first discuss the motivation for this work, describing possible applications of these form factors to…
The continue fractions of quadratic surds are periodic, according to a theorem by Lagrange. Their periods may have differing types of symmetries. This work relates these types of symmetries to the symmetries of the classes of the…
