A framework was recently proposed for doing perturbation theory on noncommutative (NC) spacetime. It preserves the unitarity of S matrix and differs from the naive, popular approach already at the lowest order in perturbation when time does…
A wide array of deep-inelastic-scattering and hadron collider experiments have tested the predictions of the electroweak theory and measured its parameters, while also searching for new particles and processes. We summarise recent…
I review recent developments in extensions of the Standard Model that address the question of electroweak symmetry breaking and discuss how these theories can be tested at future colliders.
Perturbation theory is an important tool in the analysis of oscillators and their response to external stimuli. It is predicated on the assumption that the perturbations in question are "sufficiently weak", an assumption that is not always…
We address the problem of constructing a non-equilibrium stationary state for a one-dimensional stochastic Klein-Gordon wave equation with non-linearity, using perturbation theory. The linear theory is reviewed, but with the linear…
Gauge-invariant perturbation theory for theories with a Brout-Englert-Higgs effect, as developed by Fr\"ohlich, Morchio and Strocchi, starts out from physical, exactly gauge-invariant quantities as initial and final states. These are…
It is shown that for the one-dimensional anharmonic oscillator with potential $V(x)= a x^2 + b g x^3 +\ldots=\frac{1}{g^2}\,\hat{V}(gx)$, as well as for the radial oscillator $V(r)=\frac{1}{g^2}\,\hat{V}(gr)$ and for the perturbed Coulomb…
The present status of the ratio $\varepsilon'/\varepsilon$ in the Standard Model (SM) is summarized. In particular we stress the differences between three approaches that attempt to calculate $\varepsilon'/\varepsilon$ within the SM:…
We fill the two main remaining gaps in the full classification of non-degenerate planar traveling waves of scalar balance laws from the point of view of spectral and nonlinear stability/instability under smooth perturbations. On one hand we…
Numerical stochastic perturbation theory is a powerful tool for estimating high-order perturbative expansions in lattice field theory. The standard algorithms based on the Langevin equation, however, suffer from several limitations which in…
We present perturbative oscillation probabilities for electron and muon channels including non-standard interaction (NSI) effects. The perturbation was performed in standard parameters $\Delta m^2_{21}/\Delta m^2_{31}$ and…
We make progress towards an analytical understanding of the regime of validity of perturbation theory for large scale structures and the nature of some non-perturbative corrections. We restrict ourselves to 1D gravitational collapse, for…
An autonomous system of ordinary differential equations in the plane with a centre-saddle bifurcation is considered. The influence of time damped perturbations with power-law asymptotics is investigated. The particular solutions tending at…
A perturbation theory for the Nonlinear Schroedinger Equation (NLSE) in 1D on a lattice was developed. The small parameter is the strength of the nonlinearity. For this purpose secular terms were removed and a probabilistic bound on small…
We study the conformal data of a generic superconformal half-BPS line defect in a four-dimensional $\mathcal{N} = 2$ theory. We prove a theory independent relation between the one-point function of the stress tensor in the presence of the…
Solutions of semi-classical Schrodinger equation with isotropic harmonic potential focus periodically in time. We study the perturbation of this equation by a nonlinear term. If the scaling of this perturbation is critical, each focus…

This paper seeks to provide clues as to why experimental evidence for the alignment of slender fibers in semi-dilute suspensions under shear flows does not match theoretical predictions. This paper posits that the hydrodynamic interactions…
Some versions of the electroweak SU(3)$_L\otimesU(1)_X$ models cannot be treated within perturbation theory at energies of few TeV. An extended version for these models is proposed which is perturbative even at TeV scale posing no…
