I report on recent developments in the heavy-quark effective theory and its application to $B$ meson decays. The parameters of the effective theory, the spin-flavor symmetry limit, and the leading symmetry-breaking corrections to it are…
We present a sum rule relating the electron energy spectrum and the hadron mass distribution in semileptonic b -> u decays close to threshold. The relation found is free from non-perturbative effects and the theoretical error is expected to…
Charge sum rules for quark fragmentation functions are studied. The simultaneous implementation of the conservation of electric and baryon charges, strangeness and isospin symmetry is achieved when the fragmentation to both mesons and…
We revisit the classic $O(N)$ symmetric scalar field theories in $d$ dimensions with interaction $(\phi^i \phi^i)^2$. For $2<d<4$ these theories flow to the Wilson-Fisher fixed points for any $N$. A standard large $N$ Hubbard-Stratonovich…
In GUT inspired $SO(5) \times U(1)_X \times SU(3)_C$ gauge-Higgs unification (GHU) in the Randall-Sundrum warped spacetime, the $W$ and $Z$ couplings of all 4D fermion modes become nontrivial. The $W$ and $Z$ couplings of zero-mode quarks…
We discuss the conditions for an effective field theory (EFT) to give an adequate low-energy description of an underlying physics beyond the Standard Model (SM). Starting from the EFT where the SM is extended by dimension-6 operators,…
Two new sum rules for the quark tensor charges of the nucleon are proposed, based on a relation connecting the quark transversity distributions to the quark helicity distributions and the quark model spin distributions, and on the sum rules…
We study pattern-forming dissipative systems in growing domains. We characterize classes of boundary conditions that allow for defect-free growth and derive universal scaling laws for the wavenumber in the bulk of the domain. Scalings are…
We study whether higher-dimensional operators in effective field theories, in particular in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT), can source gauge anomalies via the modification of the interactions involved in triangle…
The QCD sum rules for spin-dependent nucleon-nucleon interactions are formulated and their physical implications are studied. The basic object of the study is the correlation function of the nucleon interpolating field, where the matrix…
We test stability against probabilistic evolution of sum rules for transverse-momentum-dependent distribution and fragmentation functions. We find that preservation of the Burkardt sum rule for Sivers distribution functions is similar to…
We investigate precision observables sensitive to custodial symmetric/violating UV physics beyond the Standard Model. We use the SMEFT framework which in general includes non-oblique corrections that requires a generalization of the…
We revisit the electroweak precision tests for Higgsless models of strong EWSB. We use the Vector Meson Dominance approach and express S and T via couplings characterizing vector and axial spin-1 resonances of the strong sector. These…
We use the transfer matrix formalism to derive non-perturbative sum rules in Wilson's lattice QCD with N_f flavours of quarks. The discretization errors on these identities are treated in detail. As an application, it is shown how the sum…
SMEFT Wilson coefficients are subject to various positivity bounds in order to be consistent with the fundamental principles of S-matrix. Previous bounds on dimension-8 SMEFT operators have been obtained using the positivity part of UV…
In this paper, a sum rule means a relationship between a functional defined on a subset of all probability measures on $\mathbb{R}$ involving the reverse Kullback-Leibler divergence with respect to a particular distribution and recursion…
We apply the covariant derivative expansion of the Coleman-Weinberg potential to vector-like fermion models, matching the UV theory to the relevant dimension-6 operators in the standard model effective field theory. The $\gamma$ matrix…

Effective field theories (EFT) are commonly used to parameterize effects of BSM physics in vector boson scattering (VBS). For Wilson coefficients which are large enough to produce presently observable effects, the validity range of the EFT…
In deep-inelastic scattering experiments, there is a general connection between subtractions in dispersion relations, violations of sum-rules and $\delta$-functions in parton distribution functions. It is explained why one might expect a…
