In this paper we investigate the trace anomaly in a spacetime where single events are de-localized as a consequence of short distance quantum coordinate fluctuations. We obtain a modified form of heat kernel asymptotic expansion which does…
The dispersive representation of axial anomaly leads to the anomaly sum rules (ASRs), exact nonperturbative relations in QCD. The analytical continuation of the ASRs to the time-like region is performed. The transition form factors of…
Trace Anomaly Dominance in weak $K$-decays successfully reproduces the $\Delta I = {1\over 2}$ selection rule results, as observed in $K_S \to \pi\pi, K_L \to \pi\pi\pi, K_S \to \gamma\gamma$ and $K_L \to \pi^0 \gamma\gamma$.
The trace anomaly of quantum fields in electromagnetic or gravitational backgrounds implies the existence of massless scalar poles in physical amplitudes involving the stress-energy tensor. Considering first the axial anomaly and using QED…

For any $a\in\mathbb{C}$, the zeros of $\zeta(s)-a$, denoted by $\rho_a=\beta_a+i\gamma_a$, are called $a$-points of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(s)$. In this paper, we reformulate some basic results about the $a$-points of $\zeta(s)$…

The universal theory of order parameter fluctuations (delta scaling laws) is applied to a wide range of intermediate energy heavy-ion collision data obtained with INDRA. This systematic study confirms that the observed fragment production…
We derive the anomalous transformation law of the quantum stress tensor for a 2D massless scalar field coupled to an external dilaton. This provides a generalization of the Virasoro anomaly which turns out to be consistent with the trace…
We compute the one- and two-loop RG flow of integrable $\sigma$-models with Poisson-Lie symmetry. They are characterised by a twist function with $2N$ simple poles/zeros and a double pole at infinity. Hence, they capture many of the known…

The Adler-Weisberger sum rule for the nucleon axial-vector charge, $g_A$, offers a unique signature of chiral symmetry and its breaking in QCD. Its derivation relies on both algebraic aspects of chiral symmetry, which guarantee the…
The gap Delta = 4 pi f_pi ~ 1.2 GeV of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking is introduced as a scale delineating resonance and continuum regions in the QCD spectral sum rules for vector mesons. Basic current algebra results are easily…
We study the geometry of determinant line bundles associated to Dirac operators on compact odd dimensional manifolds. Physically, these arise as (local) vacuum line bundles in quantum gauge theory. We give a simplified derivation of the…
We discuss for some particular non supersymmetric theories a generalized symmetry that includes both the scale and axial transformations and leads to a single current that may contain also a pseudoscalar term. The method, inspired by the…
