Modern advanced nuclear ab initio approaches with the similarity renormalization group (SRG) softened interactions miss high-momentum information, thus rendering them less suitable for characterizing nucleon-nucleon short-range physics. We…
The validity range of the time-honored effective range expansion can be very limited due to the presence of a left-hand cut close to the two-particle threshold. Such a left-hand cut arises in the two-particle interaction involving a light…

We develop a theory of non-relativistic bosons in two spatial dimensions with a weak short range attractive interaction. In the limit as the range of the interaction becomes small, there is an ultra-violet divergence in the problem. We…
The question how to Lorentz transform an N-particle wave function naturally leads to the concept of a so-called multi-time wave function, i.e. a map from (space-time)^N to a spin space. This concept was originally proposed by Dirac as the…

Nonlinearities in the dispersion relations associated with different interactions designs, boundary conditions and the existence of a physical cut-off scale can alter the quantum vacuum energy of a nonrelativistic system nontrivially. As a…
A non-relativistic system of three identical particles will display a rich set of universal features known as Efimov physics if the scattering length a is much larger than the range l of the underlying two-body interaction. An appropriate…
We apply the renormalisation group (RG) to analyse scattering by short-range forces in systems with coupled channels. For two S-wave channels, we find three fixed points, corresponding to systems with zero, one or two bound or virtual…
The one-component $\lambda\phi^4$ theory in four dimensions in the spontaneously broken symmetry phase has a non-trivial, non-perturbative sector which can be studied by means of a duality transformation of its Ising limit. Duality maps…

Effective field theories (EFTs) are widely used to study many-body systems by describing two-body interactions using zero-ranged contact potentials. However, when extended to three-body processes, these contact interactions lead to…
