We show that certain global anomalies can be detected in an elementary fashion by analyzing the way the symmetry algebra is realized on the torus Hilbert space of the anomalous theory. Distinct anomalous behaviours imprinted in the Hilbert…
One of the assumptions of simplified models is that there are a few new particles and interactions accessible at the LHC and all other new particles are heavy and decoupled. The effective field theory (EFT) method provides a consistent…
It is generally believed that global symmetries, in particular axion shift symmetries, can only be approximate. This motivates us to quantify the breaking of the shift invariance that characterizes the couplings of an axion-like particle…
Axion-like particles (ALPs) are new particles that extend beyond the standard model (SM) and are highly motivated. When considering ALPs within an effective field theory framework, their couplings with SM particles can be studied…
Axion-like particles (ALPs) and Higgs bosons can interact in scalar sectors beyond the Standard Model, leading the Higgs boson to decay into pairs of gluons and photons through the ALP interaction and giving rise to resonances in the decay…
We study dimension-eight effects in the Standard Model Effective Field Theory extended by right-handed neutrinos ($\nu$SMEFT). Using the Hilbert series formalism, we derive the complete basis of dimension-eight operators and confirm…
We propose a new collider probe for axion-like particles (ALPs), and more generally for pseudo-Goldstone bosons: non-resonant searches which take advantage of the derivative nature of their interactions with Standard Model particles. ALPs…
Axion and axion-like particles (ALPs) are a prominent candidate for physics beyond the Standard Model, and can play an important role in cosmology, serving as dark matter or dark energy, or both, drawing motivation in part from the string…
We propose an experiment for detecting Axion-Like Particles (ALPs) based on the axion-photon interaction in the presence of a non-uniform magnetic field. The impact of virtual ALPs on the polarization of the photons inside a cavity is…

The standard model can be extended to include weakly-interacting light particle (WILP): real or complex singlet scalar, Majorana or Dirac neutral fermion, neutral or hidden-charged vector boson, etc. Imposing the $Z_2$ symmetry, these…
We develop a Hilbert space framework for a number of general multi-scale problems from dynamics. The aim is to identify a spectral theory for a class of systems based on iterations of a non-invertible endomorphism. We are motivated by the…
