We have re-analyzed the world data on inclusive polarized DIS, in both NLO and LO QCD, including the very precise JLab Hall A neutron data, and have studied the role of positivity constraints, and demonstrated their importance, in…
We develop a formalism where the hard and soft pomeron contributions to high energy scattering arise as leading Regge poles of a single kernel in holographic QCD. The kernel is obtained using effective field theory inspired by Regge theory…
Recent work by Webb {\it et al.} has provided indications of spatial variations of the fine-structure constant, $\alpha$, at a level of a few parts per million. Using a dataset of 293 archival measurements, they further show that a dipole…
We present two developments which enhance the predictive power of empirical shell-model Hamiltonians for cases in which calibration data are sparse. A recent improvement in the ab initio derivation of effective Hamiltonians leads to a much…
We present a simple derivation of MHV amplitudes in massless spinor and scalar electrodynamics. Working with permutationally invariant amplitudes, we show that they are fully determined by their soft photon behavior and admit a simple…
We study the factorization of soft and collinear singularities in dimensionally-regularized fixed-angle scattering amplitudes in massless gauge theories. Our factorization is based on replacing the hard massless partons by light-like Wilson…
In this paper, under the monotonicity of pairs of operators, we propose some Generalized Proximal Point Algorithms to solve non-monotone inclusions using warped resolvents and transformed resolvents. The weak, strong, and linear convergence…
In metals in the vicinity of a polar transition, interactions between electrons and soft phonon modes remain to be determined. Here we explore the consequences of spin-orbit assisted electron-phonon coupling on the collective modes of such…
In this letter we show that the soft behaviour of photons and graviton amplitudes, after projection, can be determined to infinite order in soft expansion via ordinary on-shell gauge invariance. In particular, as one of the particle's…
A brief review on the Dipole Pomeron model is given. The model not only describes data on hadron-hadron interactions, but also allows to describe data on the proton structure function with a $Q^2$ independent intercept. Moreover the chosen…
We discuss the soft behaviour of open string amplitudes with gluons and massive states in any dimension. Notwithstanding non-minimal couplings of massive higher spin states to gluons, relying on OPE and factorization, we argue that the…
We show how the sum of a hard singularity, $F_{2H}(x,Q^2_0)\sim x^{-\lambda}$ and a soft Pomeron $F_{2P}(x,Q^2_0)\sim Const.$ for the singlet piece of the structure function $F_{2S}=F_{2H}+F_{2P}$ for $Q_0^2\sim a few GeV^2$, plus a…
Hard, or high transverse momentum, pion photoproduction can be a tool for probing the parton structure of the beam and target. We estimate the soft contributions to this process, with an eye toward delineating the region where…
The LHC has released precise measurements of elastic proton-proton scattering that provide a unique constraint on the asymptotic behavior of the scattering amplitude at high energies. Recent reanalyses of part of these data indicate that…
We show that in supersymmetric theories, knowing the soft theorem for a single particle in a supermultiplet allows one to immediately determine soft theorems for the remainder of the supermultiplet. While soft theorems in supersymmetric…
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…
Algorithms that fuse multiple input sources benefit from both complementary and shared information. Shared information may provide robustness against faulty or noisy inputs, which is indispensable for safety-critical applications like…
Regge theory provides an excellent description of small-$x$ structure-function data from $Q^2=0$ up to the highest available values. The large-$Q^2$ data should also be described by perturbative QCD: the two descriptions must agree in the…
New structure-function data are in excellent agreement with the existence of a hard pomeron, with intercept about 1.4. It gives a very economical description of the data. Having fixed 2 parameters from the data for the real-photon cross…
We use multi-parton states to examine the leading order collinear factorization of single transverse-spin asymmetries in Drell-Yan processes. Twist-3 operators are involved in the factorization. We find that the so-called soft-gluon-pole…
