Aiming at a better understanding of anomalous and topological effects in gauge theories out-of-equilibrium, we study the real-time dynamics of a prototype model for CP-violation, the massive Schwinger model with a $\theta$-term. We identify…
In order to observe a signal of possible CP violation in top-quark couplings, we have studied energy correlation of the final leptons in $e^+e^-\to t\bar{t} \to \ell^+\ell^-X / \ell^\pm X$ at future linear colliders. Applying the…
The lepton charge asymmetry in $W^\pm$ production in the nuclear collisions at $\sqrt{s_{\rm NN}}=5.02$ TeV is investigated with a parton and hadron cascade model PACIAE. Recently published ALICE and the ATLAS data of lepton charge…
We study the instanton vacuum of the $CP^{N-1}$ model with large values of $N$ in 1+1 space-time dimensions. Unlike the longstanding claims which state that the theory always has a mass gap, we for the first time establish a complete {\em…
We propose a new parton model and demonstrate that the model describes the relevant experimental data at high energies. The model is based on Pomeron calculus in 1+1 space-time dimensions, as suggested in Ref. [18] and on simple assumptions…
I review the standard instanton framework for determining the $\theta$-dependence of instanton-dominated correlation functions in QCD. I then contrast these well-established semiclassical results with the recent assertion of [1,2], that…
We investigate topological charge and the index theorem on finite lattices numerically. Using mean field improved gauge field configurations we calculate the topological charge Q using the gluon field definition with ${\cal…
We construct an effective action for QCD by expanding the quark determinant in powers of the chemical potential at finite temperature in the case of massless quarks. To cut the infinite series we adopt the Weinberg power counting criteria.…
Gluon two- and three-point Green Functions computed in Landau gauge from the lattice show the existence of power corrections to the purely perturbative expressions, that can be explained through an Operator Product Expansion as the…
We formulate a toy model for the $\theta$ vacuum that embodies the n-point moments of the even and odd topological charge densities. The partition function is $2\pi$ periodic only after resumming over all winding modes. We apply the same…
An alternative method to the topological instanton solution for deriving an expression for the topological charge is presented. This alternative method involves the use of relativistic quantum field theory and covariant electrodynamics. In…
We use epsilon-cooling, adjusting at will the order a^2 corrections to the lattice action, to study the parameter space of instantons in the background of non-trivial holonomy and to determine the presence and nature of constituents with…
We present continuum and lattice calculations for elastic scattering between a fermion and a bound dimer in the shallow binding limit. For the continuum calculation we use the Skorniakov-Ter-Martirosian (STM) integral equation to determine…
We derive and solve kinetic equations for leptogenesis within the Closed Time Path (CTP) formalism. It is particularly emphasised how the procedure of real intermediate state subtraction familiar from the Boltzmann approach is realised…
A relativistic quantized particle model avoids difficulties through (1) a Hamiltonian undecomposable into H=H(0)+H(I), (2) a separation of the evolution parameter s from dynamics, (3) "leptons" and "hadrons" composed of "quarks," and (4)…
Order-alpha_s QCD corrections in the soft-gluon approximation to angular distributions of decay charged leptons in the process e+e- -> t tbar, followed by semileptonic decay of t or tbar, are obtained in the e+e- centre-of-mass frame. As…
We investigate instantons in finite temperature QCD via Witten's holographic QCD. To study the deconfinement phase, we use the setup proposed in [1] (arXiv:1107.4048). We find that the sizes of the instantons are stabilized at certain…
The CP(N-1) \sigma\ model on finite interval of length R with Dirichlet boundary conditions is analysed in the 1/N expansion. The theory has two phases, separated by a phase transition at R ~ 1/\Lambda, \Lambda\ is dynamical scale of the…
We describe an approach to understanding exponential decay of correlation functions in asymptotically free theories. This approach is systematic; it does not start from any conjectured mechanism or picture. We begin by studying the metric…
The potential energy of a static charge distribution on a lattice is rigorously computed in the standard compact quantum electrodynamic model. The method used follows closely that of Weyl for ordinary quantum electrodynamics in continuous…
