We review recent progress in the lattice investigations of near-conformal non-abelian gauge theories relevant for dynamical symmetry breaking and model building of composite Higgs models. The emphasis is placed on the mass spectrum and the…
In this Thesis we present a comprehensive study of perturbative and non-perturbative non-Abelian gauge theories in the light of gauge-fixing procedures, focusing our attention on the BRST formalism in Yang-Mills theory. We propose first a…
We apply the Batalin-Tyutin Hamiltonian method to the Abelian Proca model in order to convert a second class constraint system into a first class one systematically by introducing the new fields. Then, according to the BFV formalism we…
We study the resonant decay of the Higgs condensate into weak gauge bosons after inflation and estimate the corrections arising from the non-Abelian self-interactions of the gauge fields. We find that non-Abelian interaction terms induce an…
We propose a general method for deformation quantization of any second-class constrained system on a symplectic manifold. The constraints determining an arbitrary constraint surface are in general defined only locally and can be components…
In this paper, we develop a wave function renormalization scheme for models of non-relativistic quantum particles interacting with a quantized relativistic field, in the Hamiltonian formalism of quantum field theory. We construct the…
We work in theories with both light and heavy particles. A method to obtain an effective low energy action with respect to the light particle is presented. Thanks to Wilsonian renormalization, we obtain effective actions with finite number…
We compute the one-loop renormalization group equations for Standard Model Higgs inflation. The calculation is done in the Einstein frame, using a covariant formalism for the multi-field system. All counterterms, and thus the betafunctions,…
An irreducible Hamiltonian BRST quantization method for reducible first-class systems is proposed. The general theory is illustrated on a two-stage reducible model, the link with the standard reducible BRST treatment being also emphasized.
A deformation of the Abelian Higgs Kibble model induced by a dimension 6 derivative operator is studied. A novel differential equation is established fixing the dependence of the vertex functional on the coupling $z$ of the dim.6 operator…
Reducible constrained Hamiltonian systems are quantized accordingly an irreducible BRST manner. Our procedure is based on the construction of an irreducible theory which is physically equivalent with the original one. The equivalence…
We present a set of BRST invariant composite operators in the $SU\left(2\right)\times U\left(1\right)$ Higgs model which exhibit an overlap with the observable scalar and vector particle states of the theory. Some of these operators are…
We propose a novel description for the Higgs mechanism by which a gauge boson acquires the mass. We do not assume spontaneous breakdown of gauge symmetry signaled by a non-vanishing vacuum expectation value of the scalar field. In fact, we…
We contruct here the Hopf algebra structure underlying the process of renormalization of non-commutative quantum field theory.
We consider a model of classical noncommutative particle in an external electromagnetic field. For this model, we prove the existence of generalized gauge transformations. Classical dynamics in Hamiltonian and Lagrangian form is discussed,…
We propose a field theoretical model defined on non-commutative space-time with non-constant non-commutativity parameter $\Theta(x)$, which satisfies two main requirements: it is gauge invariant and reproduces in the commutative limit,…
Using the tools of nonstandard analysis, we develop and present an alternative formulation of Bohmian mechanics. This approach allows one to describe a broader assortment of physical systems than the standard formulation of the theory. It…
We argue that a conformally invariant extension of general relativity coupled to the Standard Model is the fundamental theory that needs to be quantized. We show that it can be treated by loop quantum gravity techniques. Through a gauge…
We consider the ordinary and noncommutative Dirac-Born-Infeld theories within the open string sigma-model. First, we propose a renormalization scheme, hybrid point splitting regularization, that leads directly to the Seiberg-Witten…
