We present results from numerical simulations of the 2+1d SU(2)xSU(2) Nambu - Jona-Lasinio model with N_f=4 fermion flavours at zero and nonzero temperature T. At zero temperature, critical exponents are extracted from the scaling of the…
We study the mass generation of self-dual two form gauge field by topologically coupling it to the three rank anti-symmetric field. We use the various non-covariant Lagrangian of self-dual two form to perform the analysis and find that the…

Neutrino masses arise via a seesaw mechanism and its mass hierarchy, with assumption that heavy Majorana neutrino mass matrix subject to $\mu-\tau$ symmetry and invariant under a cyclic permutation, are evaluated. Within this scenario, the…
Using a simple three dimensional lattice four-fermion model we argue that massless fermions can become massive due to interactions without the need for any spontaneous symmetry breaking. Using large scale Monte Carlo calculations within our…

The predictive power of the NJL model is considered in the light of a novel strategy to handle the divergences typical of perturbative calculations. The referred calculational strategy eliminates unphysical dependencies on the arbitrary…
'Constituent quarks' means massive quarks, in contrast to the nearly massless u,d,s quarks of the QCD lagrangian. The dynamical or constituent masses appear owing to the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in QCD. A realistic mechanism of…
We propose a new efficient iterative method for generating random correlated binary sequences with prescribed correlation function. The method is based on consecutive linear modulations of initially uncorrelated sequence into a correlated…
The prediction of a massless boson after the spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking in the classic paper of Nambu and Jona-Lasinio (NJL) is shown to be wrong. Their mistake is due to a carelessly employed perturbative vacuum when evaluating…
We study the generation of fermion mass in a context where interactions break a discrete chiral symmetry. Then, fermion mass is not protected by a symmetry, no symmetry is broken by the generation of mass, and a vanishing mass no longer…
We discuss Majorana neutrino mass generation mechanisms at the two-loop order. After briefly reviewing the systematic classification of one-loop realizations, we then focus on a general two-loop classification scheme which provides a…
We probe the U(N) chiral Gross-Neveu model with a source-term $J\l{\Psi}\Psi$. We find an expression for the renormalization scheme and scale invariant source $\hat{J}$, as a function of the generated mass gap. The expansion of this…
Symmetric mass generation is the name given to a mechanism for gapping fermions while preserving a chiral, but necessarily non-anomalous, symmetry. In this paper we describe how symmetric mass generation for continuous symmetries can be…
Symmetric mass generation is a novel mechanism to give gapless fermions a mass gap by non-perturbative interactions without generating any fermion bilinear condensation. The previous studies of symmetric mass generation have been limited to…
We investigate a lattice Nambu--Jona-Lasinio model both by the Monte Carlo method and Schwinger-Dyson equations. A comparison allows the discussion of finite size effects and the extrapolation to infinite volume. We pay special attention to…
In this work, a novel mechanism for spontaneous symmetry breaking is presented. This mechanism avoids quadratic divergencies and is thus capable of addressing the hierarchy problem in gauge theories. Using the scale-dependent effective…
We propose a novel generalized method for mass measurements based on phase space singularity structures that can be applied to any event topology with missing energy. Our method subsumes the well-known end-point and transverse mass methods…
