Leading plus next-to leading log results for the Regge limit of massless Yang-Mills theories are reproduced by reggeon diagrams in which the Regge slope $\alpha' \to 0$ and reggeon amplitudes satisfy Ward identity constraints at zero…
We continue the investigation of large $N$ QCD from a modern bootstrap perspective, focusing on the mesons. We make the natural spectral assumption that the $2 \to 2$ pion amplitude must contain, above the spin-one rho meson, a massive…
We consider one of the simplest time-dependent backgrounds in M-theory, describing the shrinking away of the M-theory dimension with the other spatial dimensions static. As the M-theory dimension becomes small, the situation becomes…
We describe algorithms for finding the regression of t, a sequence of values, to the closest sequence s by mean squared error, so that s is always increasing (isotonicity) and so the values of two consecutive points do not increase by too…
We study strong coupling effects in four-dimensional heterotic string models where supersymmetry is spontaneously broken with large internal dimensions, consistently with perturbative unification of gauge couplings. These effects give rise…
We extend the calculation of relativistic bound-states of a fermion anti-fermion pair in the Bethe-Salpeter formalism to the case of total angular momentum $J=3$. Together with results for $J \le 2$ this allows for the investigation of…
Motivated by arXiv:1203.5553, we continue to match super string amplitudes with their own effective field theory. We carry out within full details the computations of the complete form of the amplitude of one closed string Ramond-Ramond…
The previously developed renormalizable perturbative 1/N-expansion in higher dimensional scalar field theories is extended to gauge theories with fermions. It is based on the $1/N_f$-expansion and results in a logarithmically divergent…
We introduce the homogeneous and piecewise multilinear extensions and the eigenvalue problem for locally Lipschitz function pairs, in order to develop a systematic framework for relating discrete and continuous min-max problems. This also…
We derive new constraints on massive gravity from unitarity and analyticity of scattering amplitudes. Our results apply to a general effective theory defined by Einstein gravity plus the leading soft diffeomorphism-breaking corrections. We…
High precision measurements at the linear collider will allow a model- independent reconstruction of nature at high energy scales. The method of bottom-up extrapolation from the electroweak scale to the GUT scale is explained and both a…
Entropic regularization provides a simple way to approximate linear programs whose constraints split into two or more tractable blocks. The resulting objectives are amenable to cyclic Kullback-Leibler (KL) Bregman projections, with…
We show how a field theory containing classical vortex solutions can be expressed as an effective string theory of long distance QCD describing the two transverse oscillations of the string. We use the semiclassical expansion of this…
We focus on the classification of positive solutions to $(-\Delta)^s u=\frac{x_n^{\alpha}}{u^\gamma}$ in the half space with $\gamma>0$, subject to the Dirichlet condition. We show that when $-2s<\alpha<(\gamma-1)s$, all positive solutions…
N=2 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories for all classical gauge groups, that is, for SU(N), SO(N), and Sp(N) is considered. The formal expression for almost all models accepted by the asymptotic freedom are obtained. The equations which…
Building on previous works of the mid 1960's, we construct an integral equation for forward elastic scattering (t=0) at arbitrary virtuality Q^2 and large s=W^2. This equation sums the ladder production of massless intermediate bosons to…
Maximally supersymmetric field theories in various dimensions are believed to possess special properties due to extended supersymmetry. In four dimensions they are free from UV divergences but are IR divergent on shell, in higher…
We investigate, using the spherical Jeans equation, self-gravitating dynamical equilibria satisfying a relation rho/sigma_r^3 propto r^-alpha, which holds for simulated dark-matter haloes over their whole resolved radial range. Considering…
We update a previous N$^3$LL$^\prime$+${\cal O}(\alpha_s^3)$ determination of the strong coupling from a global fit to thrust data by including newly available perturbative ingredients, upgrading the renormalization scales to include a…
We summarize several decades of work in finding values for the percolation threshold p_c for site percolation on the square lattice, the universal correction-to-scaling exponent Omega, and the susceptibility amplitude ratio C^+/C^-, in two…
