The longstanding question of how stochastic behaviour arises from deterministic Hamiltonian dynamics is of great importance, and any truly holistic theory must be capable of describing this transition. In this review, we introduce the…
Magnetic fields are everywhere in the Universe and in our everyday life and many processes are affected by their presence, generating a rich phenomenology that depends also on other possible external agents. We review here some results,…
A SU(2) effective lagrangian is extended to a $SU_{L}(3)\otimes SU_{R}(3)$ by including the vector and axial vector meson. With this effective lagrangian, electromagnetic form factors of charged pion and kaon are calculated. The…
In this paper we characterize the effect algebras whose sharp and principal elements coincide. We also give examples of two non-isomorphic effect algebras having the same universum, partial order and orthosupplementation.
In position space the interaction terms of soft-collinear effective theory must be multipole-expanded to obtain interaction terms with homogeneous scaling behaviour. In this note we provide a manifestly gauge-invariant formulation of the…
We present a summary of the results of an explicit calculation of the strength of non-perturbative interactions in matrix models and string effective Lagrangians. These interactions are induced by single eigenvalue instantons in the $d=1$…
It is well known that due to its divergence at large impact parameters, the Boltzmann collision integral in the kinetic equation for 3D systems of particles interacting through a $1/r$ potential must be replaced by a Balescu-Lenard-like…
The goal of this paper is to develop methods for the construction of saturated designs that include the mean, main effects and the two-factor interactions of one factor with a subset of the remaining factors. If one factor is interacting…
In this article we study the noncommutative description of the DBI Lagrangian and its T-dual counterpart. We restrict the freedoms of the noncommutativity parameters of these Lagrangians. Therefore the noncommutativity parameter, the…
We apply a confining q\bar{q} potential to charmonium and open charm in order to model wave functions and to begin studying structure. Results (in momentum space) provide form-factor input to a four-flavor effective chiral Lagrangian which…
The roles played by decision factors in making complex subject are decisions are characterized by how these factors affect the overall decision. Evidence that partially matches a factor is evaluated, and then effective computational rules…
We survey the different properties of an intuitive notion of redundancy, as a function of the precise semantics given to the notion of partial implication. The final version of this survey will appear in the Proceedings of the Int. Conf.…
Models of spontaneous baryogenesis have an interaction term $\partial_\mu\theta j^\mu_B$ in the Lagrangian, where $j^\mu_B$ is the baryonic current and $\theta$ can be a pseudo-Nambu-Goldstone boson. Since the time component of this term,…
Starting from the NRQCD Lagrangian the heavy quark-antiquark potential is written in terms of field strength insertions on a static Wilson loop. The relevant matching coefficients are given at the present status of knowledge. The…
These notes are based on five lectures presented at the 2004 Theoretical Advanced Study Institute (TASI) on ``Physics in D>=4''. After a brief motivation of flavor physics, they provide a pedagogical introduction to effective field theory,…
In the quest to give a formal compositional semantics to natural languages, semanticists have started turning their attention to phenomena that have been also considered as parts of pragmatics (e.g., discourse anaphora and presupposition…
The residual interaction for a meson-meson system is computed utilizing the cumulant, or cluster, expansion of the momentum-space time correlation matrix. The cumulant expansion serves to define asymptotic, or free, meson-meson operators.…
We propose a simple method for identifying operators in effective field theories whose coefficients must be positive by causality. We also attempt to clarify the relationship between diverse positivity arguments that have appeared in the…
We analyze new physics contributions to $e^+e^-\to W^+W^-$ at the TeV energy scale, employing an effective field theory framework. A complete basis of next-to-leading order operators in the standard model effective Lagrangian is used, both…
Effective Lagrangians were originally used only at the tree level as so-called phenomenological Lagrangians since they were in general non-renormalizable. Today they are treated as effective field theories valid below a characteristic…
