The up and down quark masses are determined from an optimized QCD Finite Energy Sum Rule (FESR) involving the correlator of axial-vector divergences, to five loop order in Perturbative QCD (PQCD), and including leading non-perturbative QCD…
We present a number of exact relations for the heavy quark limit and develop an analytical 1/m_Q expansion for heavy mesons in the 't Hooft model. Among the new results are relation 3\mu_\pi^2=\bar\Lambda^2 - m_{sp}^2+\beta^2, 1/m_Q…
We extend the investigation of the reparametrization invariance of Heavy Quark Effective Theory to O(1/m_Q^3). We show that to this order reparametrization invariance can only be maintained if the the reparametrization transformation is…
We provide a holographic evaluation of novel contributions to the drag force acting on a heavy quark moving through strongly interacting plasma. The new contributions are chiral in that they act in opposite directions in plasmas containing…
We analyze the correlation function of a meson with one heavy and one light quark in inverse powers of the heavy quark mass $m_Q$ using a succession of Foldy-Wouthuysen-type transformations prior to radiative corrections. We evaluate the…
We review the present status for the determinations of the light and heavy quark masses, the light quark chiral condensate and the decay constants of light and heavy-light (pseudo)scalar mesons from QCD spectral sum rules (QSSR). Bounds on…
We find the excitations and construct the conserved charges ( mass and angular momentum) of the recently found Minimal Massive Gravity (MMG) in 2+1 dimensions in asymptotically Anti-de Sitter (AdS) spacetimes. The field equation of the…
We derive the low-energy electroweak effective lagrangian for the case of additional heavy, unmixed, sequential fermions. Present data still allow for the presence of a new quark and/or lepton doublet with masses greater than $M_Z/2$,…
The prerequisite of the chiral magnetic effect is the existence of net chiral charge in the quark gluon plasma (QGP). If we assume the quarks and anti-quarks contribute equally to the net chiral charge, the CME will induce a flow of the…
Starting from a path integral representation of appropriate 4-point and 2-point gauge invariant Green functions and from the "Modified Area Law" model for the evaluation of the Wilson loop, a q \bar q Bethe-Salpeter like equation and a…
We consider a non-relativistic (NR) limit of $(2+1)$-dimensional Maxwell Chern-Simons (CS) gravity with gauge algebra [Maxwell] $\oplus \ u(1)\oplus u(1)$. We obtain a finite NR CS gravity with a degenerate invariant bilinear form. We find…
We evaluate lower bounds on the sum of the up and down quark masses. The bounds follow from the constraints provided by the dispersion relation obeyed by the two--point function of the scalar current density when combined with properties of…
We study the interaction between the group law on an elliptic curve and the additive structure of $x$-coordinates of rational points on an elliptic curve. Let $E/\mathbb{Q}$ be an elliptic curve of Mordell-Weil rank $r \geq 1$, $d \geq 1$…
Suppose that $m,n\in \mathbb{N}$ and that $A:\mathbb{R}^m\to \mathbb{R}^n$ is a linear operator. It is shown here that if $k,r\in \mathbb{N}$ satisfy $k<r\le \mathrm{\bf rank(A)}$ then there exists a subset $\sigma\subseteq \{1,\ldots,m\}$…
The chiral symmetry relation and scaling of the overlap fermions are studied numerically on the quenched lattices at 3 couplings with about the same physical volume. We find that the generalized Gell-Mann-Oakes-Renner relation is satisfied…
Heavy quark symmetry relations for $B\rightarrow De\bar \nu_e$ and $B\rightarrow D^*e \bar \nu_e$ form factors receive corrections suppressed by powers of the charm quark mass. For small up and down quark massed the leading corrections of…
We study light (current) quark masses in framework of chiral constitutent quark model. In our calculation the current quark masses are defined uniquely, and all order effects of the light quark masses are considered. The results at energy…
We prove that there are only finitely many distinct semi-simple gauge groups and matter representations possible in consistent 6D chiral (1,0) supergravity theories with one tensor multiplet. The proof relies only on features of the…
Recent research has indicated that meson and baryon Regge trajectories are nonlinear and that all current models are ruled out by data. Tang and Norbury have identified a number of properties for Regge trajectories: a test zone for…
Assuming the spin-independence for confining force, we give a covariant quark representation of general composite meson systems with definite Lorentz transformation properties. For benefit of this representation we are able to deduce…
