When the QCD axion is absent in full theory, the strong $CP$ problem has to be explained by an additional mechanism, e.g., the left-right symmetry. Even though tree-level QCD $\bar\theta$ parameter is restricted by the mechanism, radiative…
It has been argued recently that the inclusion of the chiral logarithms in extrapolation of the lattice data can shift the value of the hadronic parameter xi = (fBs sqrt(B_{Bs}))/(fBd sqrt(B_{Bd})), from 1.16(6) to 1.32(10) and even higher.…
We re-examine the theoretical uncertainty in the Standard Model expression for $B^0$-$\bar{B}^0$ mixing. We focus on lattice calculations of the ratio $\xi$, needed to relate the oscillation frequency of $B^0_s$-$\bar{B}^0_s$ mixing to…
This talk presents details of the calculation of two-loop corrections to heavy baryon currents containing one heavy quark in leading order of the $1/m_Q$-expansion, i.e. in the limit of Heavy Quark Symmetry (HQS). The calculations lead to…
In the framework of general 3-3-1 models, we perform a global $\chi ^2$ fit at $95\%$ C.L. to the updated Z pole observables, including new data from atomic parity violation. We found scenarios where specific realizations of 3-3-1 models…

We rewrite the Bagger-Lambert action for any Lie 3-algebra as a standard Chern- Simons action coupled to matter. We use this action to compute self-energies and vertex corrections at one-loop order. Non-renormalization of the coupling…
