We show a phase diagram of a two-flavored parity doublet model on top of the nuclear matter ground state within the mean field approximation. An exotic phase with unbroken center symmetry of chiral group is also discussed. When crossing…
In supersymmetric theories, the top quark can decay into its scalar partner plus a neutralino, with an appreciable rate. We calculate the $O(\alpha_s)$ QCD corrections to this decay mode in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the…
We summarize some recent progress in constructing four-dimensional supersymmetric chiral models from Type II orientifolds. We present the construction a supersymmetric Standard-like Model and a supersymmetric GUT model to illustrate the new…
Following the analysis of tachyons and orbifold flips described in hep-th/0412337, we study nonsupersymmetric analogs of the supersymmetric conifold singularity and show using their toric geometry description that they are nonsupersymmetric…
Cosmological baryon asymmetry B is studied in supersymmetric standard models, assuming the electroweak reprocessing of B and L. Only when the soft supersymmetry breaking is taken into account, B is proportional to the primordial B-L in the…

We present a chiral-invariant meson-baryon Lagrangian which describes the interactions of the baryon octet with the lowest-mass meson nonets. The nonlinear realization of the chiral symmetry generates pair-meson interaction vertices. The…
We create exciton-polaritons in a zero-dimensional (0D) microcavity filled with organic ladder-type conjugated polymer in the strong light-matter interaction regime. Photonic confinement at wavelength scale is realized in the longitudinal…
The Cauchy problem for first order system $L(t, x, \D_t, \D_x)$ is known to be well posed in $L^2$ when a it admits a microlocal symmetrizer $S(t,x, \xi)$ which is smooth in $\xi$ and Lipschitz continuous in $(t, x)$. This paper contains…
An SU(3) chiral Lagrangian for the lightest decuplet of baryons is constructed on a discrete lattice of spacetime points, and is added to an existing lattice Lagrangian for the lightest octets of mesons and baryons. A nonzero lattice…
Two dimensional massless Quantum Chromodynamics presents many features which resemble those of the true theory. In particular the spectrum consists of mesons and baryons arranged in flavor multiplets without parity doubling. We analyze the…
We study possible restoration patterns of chiral symmetry in a generalized hidden local symmetry model, which is a low energy effective theory of QCD including pseudo-scalar, vector and axial-vector mesons. We derive Wilsonian…
When scale symmetry is combined with chiral symmetry in a scale-chiral Lagrangian, it can be shown in Fermi-liquid fixed point theory that $g_A^{\rm eff}\approx 1$ in finite nuclei {\it as well as} in dense baryonic matter. This is…
Using boundary string field theory we study the decay of unstable D-branes to lower dimensional D-branes via the tachyon condensation at one loop level. We analyze one loop divergences and use the Fischler-Susskind mechanism to cancel…
I consider the chromomagnetic vacuum in SU(2). The effective Lagrangian in one loop approximation is known to have a minimum below zero which results in a spontaneously generated magnetic field. However, this minimum is not stable; the…
In thermal states of chiral theories, as recently investigated by H.-J. Borchers and J. Yngvason, there exists a rich group of hidden symmetries. Here we show that this leads to a radical converse of of the Hawking-Unruh observation in the…
The tachyon condensation is studied in asymmetric D-anti D systems. Taking a system of two pairs of D5-anti D5 in type IIB superstring theory in the background of large N D5-branes, we show that one BPS D1-brane comes out after the…
It is found that $\alpha$ cluster structure has the apparently opposing dual property of crystallinity and condensation simultaneously. The mathematical equivalence of the spatially localized Brink $\alpha$ cluster model in the generator…
