In this paper, we investigate threshold effects associated with swapping of signal and noise subspaces in estimating signal parameters from compressed noisy data. The term threshold effect refers to a sharp departure of mean-squared error…
We apply the method of reduction of couplings in a Finite Unified Theory and in the MSSM. The method consists on searching for renormalization group invariant relations among couplings of a renormalizable theory holding to all orders in…
We study gauge coupling unification and various phenomenological issues, such as baryon number conservation, the $\mu $ problem and neutrino anomalies, within SUSY 5D orbifold models. The 5D MSSM on an $S^{(1)}/Z_2$ orbifold with 'minimal'…
The anomalous dimensions of operators in the purely gluonic SU(2,1|2) sector of any planar conformal N=2 theory can be read off from the N=4 SYM results by replacing the N=4 coupling constant by an interpolating function of the N=2 coupling…

In supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model, the observed particles come in fermion-boson pairs necessary for the realization of supersymmetry (SUSY). In spite of the expected abundance of super-partners for all the known particles,…

Local supersymmetry (SUSY) provides an attractive framework for the incorporation of gravity and unification of gauge interactions within Grand Unified Theories (GUTs). Its breakdown can lead to a variety of models with softly broken SUSY…

Populations of globally coupled identical maps subject to additive, independent noise are studied in the regimes of strong coupling. Contrary to each noisy population element, the mean field dynamics undergoes qualitative changes when the…
Coupled oscillator networks often display transitions between qualitatively different phase-locked solutions -- such as synchrony and rotating wave solutions -- following perturbation or parameter variation. In the limit of weak coupling,…
The Higgs-Top model is studied by a non-perturbative variational extension of the Gaussian Effective Potential that incorporates fermions. In the limit of a very strong Yukawa coupling the one-loop result is shown to follow a…
Effective field theory provides a new perspective on the predictive power of Renormalization Group fixed points. Critical trajectories between different fixed points confine the regions of UV-complete, IR-complete, as well as conformal…
We examine gauge and Yukawa coupling unification in models with gauge-mediated supersymmetry breaking. We work consistently to two-loop order, and include all weak, messenger and unification-scale threshold corrections. We find that…
An important aspect of the recently introduced transient uncoupling scheme is that it induces synchronization for large values of coupling strength at which the coupled chaotic systems resist synchronization when continu- ously coupled.…
A long-standing problem in string phenomenology has been the fact that the string unification scale disagrees with the GUT scale obtained by extrapolating low-energy data within the framework of the minimal supersymmetric standard model…
