We consider the possibility that the SU(2) isospin symmetry, exact in strong interactions but only approximate in nature, is in fact a quantum group. Using a doublet of q-quarks, we build the wavefuntions of pi-mesons, nucleons and Delta…
We introduce in this paper embedded Gaussian unitary ensemble of random matrices, for $m$ fermions in $\Omega$ number of single particle orbits, generated by random two-body interactions that are SU(4) scalar, called EGUE(2)-SU(4). Here the…
The application of fermion-boson symmetry to the standard model leads to the following: first, there are three generations of scalar quarks and scalar leptons in addition to the known quarks and leptons, and, secondly, the divergences in…
We discuss the critical behaviour of strongly interacting matter close to the QCD phase transition. Emphasis is put on a presentation of results from lattice calculations that illustrate deconfining as well as chiral symmetry restoring…
By considering the one loop background field method for a quark-antiquark interaction, mediated by one (non perturbative) gluon exchange, sixth order quark effective interactions are derived and investigated in the limit of zero momentum…
We investigate the possibility that four-fermion contact interactions give rise to the observed deviation from the Standard Model prediction for the weak charge of Cesium, through one-loop contributions. We show that the presence of loops…
The interaction between two parts in a compound quantum system may be reconsidered more completely than before and some new understandings and conclusions different from current quantum mechanics are obtained, including the conservation law…
It is shown that hyperon beta decay data can be well accommodated within the framework of Cabbibo's SU(3) symmetric description if one allows for a small SU(3) symmetry breaking proportional to the mass difference between strange and…
We have made an attempt to develop the quaternionic formulation of Yang - Mill's field equations and octonion reformulation of quantum chromo dynamics (QCD). Starting with the Lagrangian density, we have discussed the field equations of…
The heavy fourth generation of quarks that have sufficiently small mixing with the three known SM families form hadrons. In the present work, we calculate the masses and decay constants of mesons containing either both quarks from the…
The problem of distinguishing two unitary transformations, or quantum gates, is analyzed and a function reflecting their statistical distinguishability is found. Given two unitary operations, $U_1$ and $U_2$, it is proved that there always…
The quon algebra gives a description of particles, ``quons,'' that are neither fermions nor bosons. The parameter $q$ attached to a quon labels a smooth interpolation between bosons, for which $q = +1$, and fermions, for which $q = -1$.…
Operators, refered to as k-fermion operators, that interpolate between boson and fermion operators are introduced through the consideration of two noncommuting quon algebras. The deformation parameters for these quon algebras are roots of…
The family symmetry $SU(3)\otimes U(1)$ is proposed to solve flavor problems about fermion masses and flavor mixings. It's breaking is implemented by some flavon fields at the high-energy scale. In addition a discrete group $Z_{2}$ is…
The logical structure of Quantum Mechanics (QM) and its relation to other fundamental principles of Nature has been for decades a subject of intensive research. In particular, the question whether the dynamical axiom of QM can be derived…
Field-theoretic models for fields taking values in quantum groups are investigated. First we consider $SU_q(2)$ $\sigma$ model ($q$ real) expressed in terms of basic notions of noncommutative differential geometry. We discuss the case in…
The possibility to violate baryon or lepton number without introducing any new flavor structures, beyond those needed to account for the known fermion masses and mixings, is analyzed. With four generations, but only three colors, this…
Mapping fermionic systems to qubits on a quantum computer is often the first step for algorithms in quantum chemistry and condensed matter physics. However, it is difficult to reconcile the many different approaches that have been proposed,…
Physics from beyond the Standard Model can induce four fermion operators involving a quark, an anti-quark, a lepton and an anti-lepton. The coefficients of these operators can be constrained by various observations. We update the bounds…
The nucleon decay matrix elements of three-quark operators are calculated with domain-wall fermions. Operators are renormalized non-perturbatively to match the MS bar (NDR) scheme at NLO. Quenched simulation studies involve both direct…
