We study the $z=3$ Horava-Lifshitz QED with a CPT-breaking term, characterized by the axial vector $b_{\mu}$, and perform the one-loop calculations. Explicitly, we demonstrate that just as in the usual Lorentz-breaking QED, in our case, the…
When electrons in a solid are excited with light, they can alter the free energy landscape and access phases of matter that are beyond reach in thermal equilibrium. This accessibility becomes of vast importance in the presence of phase…
We examine the radiative corrections to an extension of the standard model containing a Lorentz-violating axial vector parameter. At second order in this parameter, the photon self-energy is known to contain terms that violate gauge…

We consider the Lee-Wick (LW) finite electrodynamics, i.e., the U(1) gauge theory where a (gauge-invariant) dimension-6 operator containing higher-derivatives is added to the free Lagrangian of the U(1) sector. Three bounds on the LW heavy…
We consider the phenomenology of a dimension-four operator that violates electromagnetic gauge invariance. Its magnitude is severely constrained by the lack of scattering of very low energy electromagnetic radiation off of the Cosmic…
The formulation and some experimental implications of a general Lorentz-violating extension of the standard model are reviewed. The theory incorporates both CPT-preserving and CPT-breaking terms. It is otherwise a conventional quantum field…
If the electroweak symmetry is broken by some unspecified strong dynamics, composite fermions may exist with definite transformation properties under SU(2)_L x SU(2)_R/SU(2)_{L+R} and may play a role in giving masses by mixing to all the…
We show that the quasiparticle effective mass $M^*$ diverges as a function of the system's density $x$, $M^*\propto 1/(x-x_{FC})$, when a system approaches the critical point $x_{FC}$ at which the fermion condensation quantum phase…
