We discuss electroweak precision constraints on dimension-6 operators in the effective theory beyond the standard model. We identify the combinations of these operators that are constrained by the pole observables (the W and Z masses and…
The effective Lagrangian for \eta' incorporating the effect of the QCD \theta-angle has been developed previously. We revisit this Lagrangian and carry out its canonical quantization with particular attention to the test function spaces of…
Koopman operator theory is shown to be directly related to the renormalization group. This observation allows us, with no assumption of translational invariance, to compute the critical exponents $\eta$ and $\delta$, as well as ratios of…
We discuss electroweak constraints on TeV scale extensions of the standard model. To obtain model-independent results, effective theory approach is adopted. Constraints are given on arbitrary linear combinations of a set of dimension-6…
By treating the vacuum as a medium, H. Euler and W. Heisenberg estimated the non-linear interactions between photons well before the advent of Quantum Electrodynamics. In a modern language, their result is often presented as the archetype…
Meson-antimeson mixing provides the most stringent constraints on baryon- and lepton-number conserving New Physics, probing scales higher than $10^5$ TeV. In the context of the effective theory of weak interactions, these constraints…
We present a combined analysis of LHC Higgs data (signal strengths) together with LEP-2 WW production measurements. To characterize possible deviations from the Standard Model (SM) predictions, we employ the framework of an Effective Field…
We give an elementary symmetric function expansion for $M\Delta_{m_\gamma e_1}\Pi e_\lambda^{\ast}$ and $M\Delta_{m_\gamma e_1}\Pi s_\lambda^{\ast}$ when $t=1$ in terms of what we call $\gamma$-parking functions and lattice $\gamma$-parking…
Precision electroweak data allow one to test the standard model, constrain its parameters, and search for the effects of some kinds of new physics. The results of the most recent data from LEP, SLC, and elsewhere are described, as are their…
Precision experiments, such as those performed at LEP and SLC, offer us an excellent opportunity to constrain extended gauge model parameters. To this end, it is often assumed, that in order to obtain more reliable estimates, one should…
We summarize the potential of high--energy $\ee$ linear colliders for discovering, and in case of discovery, for studying the signals of extended gauge models. We will mainly focus on the virtual signals of new neutral gauge bosons and on…
We investigate the impact of heavy new physics on W bosons productions at hadron colliders using an effective field theory. After listing all the relevant dimension-six operators, their effects are computed taking into account LEP…
An Effective Lagrangian description is useful for describing potential physics beyond the Standard Model. The method is illustrated by reference to interactions among the electroweak bosons ($W^\pm$ \& $Z^0$). The resulting estimates of the…
For commuting linear operators $P_0,P_1,..., P_\ell$ we describe a range of conditions which are weaker than invertibility. When any of these conditions hold we may study the composition $P=P_0P_1... P_\ell$ in terms of the component…
New observables for searching for Z' virtual states in processes e^+e^-\to\bar{f}f are proposed. They are based on the relations following due to renormalizability of an underlying theory between the parameters of the low-energy effective…

In this survey we gather recent results on Dirac operators coupled with $\delta$-shell interactions. We start by discussing recent advances regarding the question of self-adjointness for these operators. Afterward we switch to an…

We consider hard-potential cutoff multi-species Boltzmann operators modeling microscopic binary elastic collisions and bimolecular reversible chemical reactions inside a gaseous mixture. We prove that the spectral gap estimate derived for…
Different techniques for calculating effective operators within the framework of the shell model using the same effective interaction and the same excitation spaces are presented. Starting with the large-basis no-core approach, we compare…
