We investigate for N = 3 supersymmetry (SUSY) in D = 2 the algebraic relation between the Volkov-Akulov (VA) model of nonlinear (NL) SUSY and a (renormalizable) SO(3) vector supermultiplet of linear (L) SUSY. We derive SUSY and SO(3)…
A three-dimensional finite-difference solver has been developed and implemented for Boussinesq convection in a spherical shell. The solver transforms any complex curvilinear domain into an equivalent Cartesian domain using Jacobi…
We use the generalised rational map ansatz introduced by Ioannidou et al. to construct analytically some topologically non-trivial solutions of the generalised SU(3) Skyrme model defined by adding a sixth order term to the usual Lagrangian.…
We study the origin of the real intermediate state subtraction problem and compare its different solutions. We show that the ambiguity in subtraction schemes arises from the on-shell approximation for the 2-point functions that reduces the…
The SU(3) lattice gauge theory is reformulated in terms of SU(3) prepotential harmonic oscillators. This reformulation has enlarged $SU(3)\otimes U(1) \otimes U(1)$ gauge invariance under which the prepotential operators transform like…

Spherically and cylindrically symmetric solutions of SU(3) Yang-Mills theory are found, whose gauge potentials have confining properties. The spherically symmetric solutions give field distributions which have a spherical surface on which…
A democratic parameterization is introduced for $SU(3)_C\otimes SU(3)_L\otimes U(1)_X$ extension of the Standard Model, which is inspired by $SU(6)$ symmetry. In the novel scenario all Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa mixing angles and quark…
We study the vacua of an $SU(3)\times SU(3)$-symmetric model with a bifundamental scalar. Structures of this type appear in various gauge theories such as the Renormalizable Coloron Model, which is an extension of QCD, or the Trinification…
We discuss a hidden symmetry of a two-dimensional sigma model on a squashed S^3. The SU(2) current can be improved so that it can be regarded as a flat connection. Then we can obtain an infinite number of conserved non-local charges and…
We here calculate the series expansion of the T-matrix for a spheroidal particle in the small-size/long-wavelength limit, up to third lowest order with respect to the size parameter, X, which we will define rigorously for a non-spherical…
Searches for beyond-Standard Model physics scenarios, such as supersymmetry (SUSY), at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC) are frequently optimised on simplified models. After assuming particular particle production and decay processes,…
We investigate three classes of supersymmetric models which can be obtained by breaking the chiral SU(2k+3) gauge theories with one antisymmetric tensor and 2k-1 antifundamentals. For N=3, the chiral SU(2k)$\times$SU(3)$\times$U(1) theories…
A unification of left-right $\rm{SU}(3)_\rm{L}\times \rm{SU}(3)_\rm{R}$, colour $\rm{SU}(3)_\rm{C}$ and family $\rm{SU}(3)_\rm{F}$ symmetries in a maximal rank-8 subgroup of ${\rm{E}}_8$ is proposed as a landmark for future explorations…
Algebraic models are proposed for the description of the shell-like quarteting of the nucleons both on the phenomenologic and on the semimicroscopic levels. In the previous one the quartet is considered as a structureless object, while in…
The soft bootstrap is an on-shell method to constrain the landscape of effective field theories (EFTs) of massless particles via the consistency of the low-energy S-matrix. Given assumptions on the on-shell data (particle spectra, linear…
We present a detailed analytical study of spherically symmetric self-similar solutions in the SU(2) sigma model coupled to gravity. Using a shooting argument we prove that there is a countable family of solutions which are analytic inside…

By considering the 3-3-1 and the left-right symmetric models as low energy effective theories of the $SU(3)_C\otimes SU(3)_L\otimes SU(3)_R$~(for short $[SU(3)]^3$) gauge group, alternative versions of these models are found. The new…
