The classical low-dimensional models of thin structures are based on certain a priori assumptions on the three-dimensional deformation and/or stress fields, diverse in nature but all motivated by the smallness of certain dimensions with…
The phenomenological implications of the eleven dimensional limit of $M$-theory (strongly coupled $E_8\times E_8$) are investigated. In particular we calculate the supersymmetric particle spectrum subject to constraints of correct…
We investigate the impact of effective interactions of dimension-8 (dim-8) operators in the standard model effective field theory (SMEFT) on neutral meson mixing, focusing on the $K^0-\bar K^0$, $B_{d,s}-\bar B_{d,s}$, and $D^0-\bar D^0$…
We extent the standard approach of dimensional regularization of Feynman diagrams: we replace the transition to lower dimensions by a 'natural' cut-off regulator. Introducing an external regulator of mass Lambda^(2e), we regain in the limit…

Inclusive semileptonic decays are discussed in the framework of heavy quark effective field theory by employing the short distance expansion in the effective theory. The lowest order term turns out to be the parton model; the higher order…
