The objection [arXiv:1103.0168] to my theorem [arXiv:hep-ph/0201258] that violation of $CPT$ symmetry implies violation of Lorentz covariance is based on a nonlocal model in which time-ordered products are not well defined. I used…

Lorentz violation in hadronic systems is related to Lorentz-violating operators of quarks and gluons. Due to the nonperturbative nature of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) at low energies, establishing these relationships is complex. Chiral…
