We investigate the effect of supersymmetric (SUSY) threshold corrections on the values of the running quark and charged lepton masses at the GUT scale within the large $\tan\beta$ regime of the MSSM. In addition to the typically dominant…
The SU(3) beta function is computed from Wilson loops to 20th order numerical stochastic perturbation theory. An attempt is made to include massless fermions, whose contribution is known analytically to 4th order. The question whether the…
We calculate the value of the coupling at the infrared zero of the beta function of an asymptotically free SU(3) gauge theory at the five-loop level as a function of the number of fermions. Both a direct analysis of the beta function and…
It is shown how grand unification can occur in models which are partly supersymmetric. The particle states which are composite do not contribute to the running of gauge couplings above the compositeness scale, while the elementary states…
We present analytical five-loop results for the quark mass and quark field anomalous dimensions, for a general gauge group and in the MSbar scheme. We confirm the values known for the gauge group SU(3) from an independent calculation, and…
Masses of heavy Standard Model fermions (top-quark, bottom-quark, and tau-lepton) play an important role in the analysis of theories beyond the SM. They serve as low-energy input and reduce the parameter space of such theories. In this…
We discuss, for the first time, the role of the superpotential couplings of three messenger fields in a GMSB-type unification model in which messenger sector consists of both 5+5bar and 10+10bar of SU(5). It turns out that these…

We calculate the third coefficient of the lattice $\beta$ function in pure Yang-Mills theory. We make use of a computer code for solving perturbation theory analytically on the lattice. We compute the divergent integrals by using a method…
We report on a systematic perturbative study of three-point functions in planar SU(N) N=4 super Yang-Mills theory at the one-loop level involving scalar field operators up to length five. For this we have computed a sample of 40 structure…
From the computation of three-point singlet correlators in the two-matrix model, we obtain an explicit expression for the macroscopic three-loop amplitudes having boundary lengths $\ell_{i}$ $(i = 1\sim 3)$ in the case of the unitary series…
We recalculate the two-loop beta functions for three gauge couplings taking into account all low energy threshold corrections in split supersymmetry (split-SUSY) which assumes a very high scalar mass scale M_S. We find that, in split-SUSY…
We present the full expressions for the QCD beta-function in the MOMggg, MOMq and MOMh renormalization schemes at three loops for an arbitrary colour group in the Landau gauge. The results for all three schemes are in very good agreement…
We consider the possibility of a large phase of B_s-\bar B_s mixing in supersymmetric SU(5) and SO(10) models. We find that in the SU(5) model, the magnitude of this phase is correlated with the branching ratio of \tau -> \mu\gamma and the…
Many molecular magnetic clusters, such as single-molecule magnets, are characterized by spin ground states with defined total spin S exhibiting zero-field-splittings. In this work, the spectroscopic intensities of the transitions within the…
We study a supersymmetric version of the seesaw mechanism type-III. The model consists of the MSSM particle content plus three copies of 24 superfields. The fermionic part of the SU(2) triplet contained in the 24 is responsible for the…
Simulated Moving Bed (SMB) chromatography is a well-known technique for the resolution of several high-value-added compounds. Parameters identification and model topology definition are arduous when one is dealing with complex systems such…
For the first time, we compute three-loop contributions to all triple vertices in QCD at the symmetric point. The analytic results are obtained in massless QCD with an arbitrary color group in the Landau gauge. All new loop integrals are…
We investigate three different possibilities for improving the fermion mass relations that arise in grand unified theories (GUTs). Each scenario relies on supersymmetric loop effects alone, without modifying the naive Yukawa unification.…
Since the discovery of a Higgs particle the effective Higgs potential of the Standard Model or extensions and the stability of the ground state corresponding to its minimum at the electroweak scale have been subject to a lot of…
