This work is devoted to a theoretical description of polarized M{\o}ller scattering. Complete one-loop electroweak radiative corrections are calculated in the helicity amplitude approach with allowance for the exact dependence on the muon…
We investigate a version of noncommutative QED where the interaction term, although natural, breaks the spin-statistics connection. We calculate $e^- + e^- -> e^- + e^-$ and $\gamma + e^- -> \gamma + e^-$ cross-sections in the tree…
A novel method for extracting multipole amplitudes in the nucleon resonance region from electroproduction data is presented. The method is based on statistical concepts and it relies heavily on Monte Carlo and simulation techniques; it…
We review recent theoretical progress in the computation of radiative corrections beyond one loop within the standard model of electroweak interactions, both in the gauge and Higgs sectors. In the gauge sector, we discuss universal…
QCD corrections to the electron positron annihilation cross-section into hadrons and to the hadronic $Z$ boson decay rate are reviewed. Formal developments are introduced in a form particularly suited for practical applications. These…
In partially linear models the dependence of the response y on (x^T,t) is modeled through the relationship y=\x^T \beta+g(t)+\epsilon where \epsilon is independent of (x^T,t). In this paper, estimators of \beta and g are constructed when…
We present the results of a model independent analysis, which systematically scans the data taken by CMS for deviations from the Standard Model predictions. Due to the minimal theoretical bias this approach is sensitive to a variety of…
We report on a recent calculation of the electroweak O(\alpha^3\alpha_s) corrections to 3-jet production and related event-shape observables at e+e- colliders. The calculation properly accounts for the experimental photon isolation criteria…
The standard electroweak theory is tested at non-trivial quantum correction level through $\alpha$, $G_F$ and the latest data of the weak-boson masses. The improved-Born approximation and the non-decoupling top-quark effects are studied…
The independence assumption is a useful tool to increase the tractability of one's modelling framework. However, this assumption does not match reality; failing to take dependencies into account can cause models to fail dramatically. The…
The consecutive integration over the distinct mass scales ${\cal O}(T),{\cal O}(gT)$ leads to a hierarchy of effective models for the electroweak phase transition. Different techniques for the realisation of such strategy are reviewed.…
The formal properties of the recently derived set of linearly independent invariant amplitudes for the electromagnetic production of a pseudoscalar particle from a spin-one particle have been further exploited. The crossing properties are…
We extend our previous determination of the thermodynamic pressure of the Standard Model so that the result can be applied down to temperatures corresponding to the electroweak crossover. This requires a further resummation which can be…
In this article, the enumeration of partial chord diagrams is discussed via matrix model techniques. In addition to the basic data such as the number of backbones and chords, we also consider the Euler characteristic, the backbone spectrum,…
We calculate the electroweak corrections to the production of WWZ and ZZZ at the linear collider in the Standard Model. These processes are important for the extraction of the quartic couplings of the massive gauge bosons which can be a…
The production of W+ W- b bbar from e+ e- collisions at energies close to the t tbar threshold is dominated by the resonant process with a nearly on-shell t tbar intermediate state. The W b pairs in the final state can also be reached…
This paper studies a class of linear panel models with random coefficients. We do not restrict the joint distribution of the time-invariant unobserved heterogeneity and the covariates. We investigate identification of the average partial…
When data contains measurement errors, it is necessary to make assumptions relating the observed, erroneous data to the unobserved true phenomena of interest. These assumptions should be justifiable on substantive grounds, but are often…
Partial differential equations (PDEs) are used, with huge success, to model phenomena arising across all scientific and engineering disciplines. However, across an equally wide swath, there exist situations in which PDE models fail to…
The modular properties of fractional level affine sl(2)-theories and, in particular, the application of the Verlinde formula, have a long and checkered history in conformal field theory. Recent advances in logarithmic conformal field theory…
