Recent progress in nuclear-structure theory has been dramatic. I describe recent and future applications of ab initio calculations and the generator coordinate method to double-beta decay. I also briefly discuss the old and vexing problem…

The standard formulation of a massive Abelian vector field in $2+1$ dimensions involves a Maxwell kinetic term plus a Chern-Simons mass term; in its place we consider a Chern-Simons kinetic term plus a Stuekelberg mass term. In this latter…
We consider a Klein-Gordon-Wave system, describing the evolution of a massive field and a massless one interacting through a Yukawa-like coupling, and we explicitly derive its Hamiltonian normal form to first and second order. To the…

The regularization scheme is proposed for the constrained Hamiltonian formulation of the gauge fields coupled to the chiral or axial fermions. The Schwinger terms in the regularized operator first-class constraint algebra are shown to be…
Extended $U_e(1)\times U_g(1)$ electromagnetism containing both a photon and a pseudo-photon is introduced at variational level and is justified by the violation of the Bianchi identities in conceptual systems, either in the presence of…
We analytically compute quadratic mass corrections of order $\alpha_s^3 m_q^2/s$ to the absorptive part of the (non-diagonal) correlator of two axial vector currents. This allows us to find the correction of order $\alpha_s^3 m_q^2/M^2_W$…
We present a relativistic generalization of the Wigner inequality for the scalar and pseudoscalar particles decaying to two particles with spin (fermions and photons.) We consider Wigner's inequality with the full spin anticorrelation (with…

We revise the radiative corrections to double-Dalitz decays ($P\to\ell\bar{\ell}\ell'\bar{\ell}'$), completing the full next-to-leading order calculation in QED as compared to existing calculations. As a result, we find mild differences…
We use heavy-nucleus effective field theory to compute radiative corrections to two-neutrino double-$\beta$ decay ($2\nu\beta\beta$). Our main result is the first derivation of a universal radiative-correction factor for double-weak decays…
Starting from the Henneaux-Teitelboim action for a chiral scalar, which generalizes to curved space the Floreanini-Jackiw action, we give two simple derivations of the exact consistent gravitational anomaly. The first derivation is through…
We discuss some aspects of the radiative corrections in the phenomenology of the minimal SUSY standard model, by reviewing two recent studies. (1) The full one-loop corrections to the Higgs boson decays into charginos are presented, with…
We address the image restoration problem under Poisson noise corruption. The Kullback-Leibler divergence, which is typically adopted in the variational framework as data fidelity term in this case, is coupled with the second-order Total…
We apply the dimensional regularization procedure to treat an ultraviolet divergence occurring in the framework of the nuclear many-body problem. We consider the second--order correction (beyond the mean-field approximation) to the equation…
The similarity of the two-point correlation tensor along the streamwise direction in the axi-symmetric jet far-field is analyzed, herein its utility in spectral theory. A separable two-point correlation coefficient has been the basis for…

The radiative corrections to Compton scattering vanish in the low-energy limit in all orders of perturbation theory. This theorem, which is well-known for Abelian gauge theories, is proved in the electroweak Standard Model. Moreover,…
We study photoproduction off nuclei based on a self consistent and covariant many body approach for the pion and isobar propagation in infinite nuclear matter. For the first time the t-channel exchange of an in-medium pion is evaluated in…
