We present a procedure to calculate 1-loop graphs in the soliton sector of chiral Lagrangians and use it to calculate quantum corrections to certain baryon observables in Skyrme-type models. Results generally show an improvement over the…
We consider one loop quantum corrections to soliton mass for the ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric extension of the (1+1)-dimensional scalar field theory with the potential $U(\phi) = \phi^2 \cos^2\left(\ln \phi^2\right)$. First, we compute the…
We consider the one-loop corrections to the SU(3) skyrmion mass within the bound state soliton approach. We show that the standard SU(3) renormalization scheme is not appropiate within this framework and propose to use an alternative one…
We consider gauged U(1) extensions of the standard model of particle physics with three right-handed sterile neutrinos and a singlet scalar. The neutrinos obtain mass via the type I seesaw mechanism. We compute the one loop corrections to…
We consider a chiral one-loop hedgehog soliton of the bosonized SU(2)$_f$ Nambu & Jona-Lasinio model which is embedded in a hot medium of constituent quarks. Energy and radius of the soliton are determined in self-consistent mean-field…
The heavy singlet field is integrated out from the U_L(3) x U_R(3) Chiral Perturbation Theory and it is shown how its effects on the low-energy dynamics are reduced to effective vertices for the light mesons. The results are matched against…
We study translational and spin-isospin symmetry restoration for the two-flavor chiral quark-loop soliton. Instead of a static soliton at rest we consider a boosted and rotating hedgehog soliton. Corrected classical meson fields are…
Three-loop QCD corrections to the vector current correlator are considered. The large momentum procedure is applied in order to evaluate mass corrections up to order $(m^2/q^2)^6$. The inclusion of the first seven terms to the ratio…
The effective restoration of the chiral U(A)(1) symmetry in strong interactions is studied using the linear chiral SU(3)xSU(3) model at finite temperatures. We find that the disappearance of the chiral anomaly causes a considerable change…
This lecture comprises some recent developments concerning the description of baryons as topological solitons in effective chiral meson theories. In the first part one-loop corrections to the classical tree approximation are discussed. This…
At energies much larger than the mass of the weak gauge bosons, electroweak radiative corrections can lead to significant corrections. At 1 TeV the one loop corrections can be of ${\cal O} (20 %)$ due to large contributions of the Sudakov…
The chiral limit of the rho and sigma masses and widths is discussed. We work within the inverse amplitude method to one loop in SU(2) ChPT and analyze the consequences that all chiral logarithms cancel out in the rho-channel, while they do…
We compute the one-loop corrections to the $Z \to b\bar{b}$ vertex in the $U(1)_R$ symmetric minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model. We find that the predicted value of $R_b$ is consistent with experiment if the mass of the…
In supersymmetric models with minimal particle content and without left-right squark mixing, the conventional wisdom is that the 125.6 GeV Higgs boson mass implies top squark masses of O(10) TeV, far beyond the reach of colliders. This…
Using an effective potential approach, we compute two-loop radiative corrections to the MSSM lightest ${\cal CP}$-even Higgs boson mass $M_{h^0}$ to ${\cal O}(\alpha_t^2)$ for arbitrary left-right top-squark mixing and $\tan\beta$. We find…
We consider a recent proposal by Dimopoulos and Kaplan to embed the electroweak SU(2)_L X U(1)_Y into a larger group SU(3)_W X SU(2) X U(1) at a scale above a TeV. This idea is motivated by the prediction for the weak mixing angle sin^2…

We study radiative corrections to third generation scalar fermions into gauge bosons $Z$ and $W^\pm$. We include both SUSY-QCD, QED and full electroweak corrections. It is found that the electroweak corrections can be of the same order as…
We have constructed two $SU(3)_L \times U(1)_N$ gauge models with the $L^\prime = L_e-L_\mu-L_\tau$ symmetry, which accommodate tiny neutrino masses generated by one-loop and two-loop radiative effects. The heavy neutral leptons and heavy…
