The nucleon decay matrix elements of three-quark operators are calculated with domain-wall fermions. Operators are renormalized non-perturbatively to match the MS bar (NDR) scheme at NLO. Quenched simulation studies involve both direct…
Hadronic spectral functions measured by the ALEPH collaboration in the vector and axial-vector channels are used to study potential quark-hadron duality violations (DV). This is done entirely in the framework of pinched kernel finite energy…
A new model for hadronic string reinteractions based on a generalised area law is presented. The model describes both the hadronic final states in $e^+e^-$ annihilation and the diffractive structure function in deep inelastic scattering.…
We discuss the non-local Variant Monte Carlo algorithm which has been successfully employed in the study of driven elastic strings in disordered media at the depinning threshold. Here we prove two theorems, which establish that the…

We offer a physicists' proof that center-vortex theory requires the area in the Wilson-loop area law to involve an extremal area. Area-law dynamics is determined by integrating over Wilson loops only, not over surface fluctuations for a…
We extend the four-dimensional unsubtraction method, which is based on the loop-tree duality (LTD), to deal with processes involving heavy particles. The method allows to perform the summation over degenerate IR configurations directly at…
A generalized form of the Hastings and Levitov (HL) algorithm for simulation of diffusion-limited aggregation (DLA) restricted in a sector geometry is studied. It is found that this generalization with uniform measure produces "wedge-like"…
QCD sum rules are useful tools for studying the spectral properties of hadrons; however, assumptions underlying standard sum-rule analyses can lead to inconsistencies with known results of chiral perturbation theory. This possibility is…
Topological defects form at cosmological phase transitions by the Kibble mechanism, with cosmic strings and superstrings having the most interesting phenomenology. A rigorous analysis of their astrophysical consequences is limited by the…
We present the results of a field theory simulation of networks of strings in the Abelian Higgs model. Starting from a random initial configuration we show that the resulting vortex tangle approaches a self-similar regime in which the…
We study the low-energy theorems of QCD from the point of view of the dual AdS/QCD models and demonstrate that these models are compatible with the theorems in the chiral limit, i.e. the arising expressions have the same analytical behavior…
The Loop-Tree Duality (LTD) is a novel perturbative method in QFT that establishes a relation between loop-level and tree-level scattering amplitudes. This is achieved by directly applying the Residue Theorem to the loop-energy-integration.…
We construct, analyse and assess various schemes of second order of accuracy in space and time for model advection-diffusion-reaction differential equations. The constructed schemes are meant to be of practical use in solving industrial…
We optimize the area and latency of Shor's factoring while simultaneously improving fault tolerance through: (1) balancing the use of ancilla generators, (2) aggressive optimization of error correction, and (3) tuning the core adder…
The spontaneous breaking of chiral symmetry in QCD is known to be linked to a non-zero density of eigenvalues of the massless Dirac operator near the origin. Numerical studies of two-flavour QCD now suggest that the low quark modes are…
The pattern of chiral symmetry breaking is exploited to compute vector and axial-vector pion matrix elements in a uniform magnetic field. Our results are model independent, and thereby constitute low-energy theorems that must be obeyed by…
We consider an one-dimensional conservation law with random space-time forcing and calculate using large deviations the exponentially small probabilities of anomalous shock profile displacements. Under suitable hypotheses on the spatial…
We calculate numerically the entanglement entropy of free fermion ground states in one-, two- and three-dimensional Anderson models, and find that it obeys the area law as long as the linear size of the subsystem is sufficiently larger than…
