We investigate the Gross-Neveu model on the lattice at finite temperature and chemical potential in the limit of an infinite number of fermion flavours. We check the universality of the continuum limit of staggered and overlap fermions at…
The masses of heavy quark baryons are studied in an expansion in 1/N_c, SU(3) flavor symmetry breaking, and heavy-quark symmetry breaking. Very accurate model-independent mass relations are obtained for charm and bottom baryons.
We develop a "variational mass" expansion approach, recently introduced in the Gross--Neveu model, to evaluate some of the order parameters of chiral symmetry breakdown in QCD. The method relies on a reorganization of the usual perturbation…
In the large $N_c$ limit of QCD, baryons can be modeled as solitons, for instance, as Skyrmions. This modeling has been justified by Witten's demonstration that all properties of baryons and mesons scale with $N_c^{-1/2}$ in the same way as…
As an alternative approach to the infinite-array description of dense matter in the Skyrme model, we report about the properties of a single skyrmion on a compact 3-sphere of finite radius. The density of this matter can be increased by…
We consider universal finite size effects in the large-N limit of the continuum Gross-Neveu model as well as in its discretized versions with Wilson and with staggered fermions. After extrapolation to zero lattice spacing the lattice…
A systematic expansion in 1/N is constructed for baryons in QCD. Predictions of the 1/N expansion at leading and subleading order for baryon axial current coupling constant ratios such as F/D, baryon masses and magnetic moments are derived.…
We find the general solution to the time-dependent Hartree-Fock problem for the Gross-Neveu models, with both discrete (GN2) and continuous (NJL2) chiral symmetry. We find new multi-baryon, multi-breather and twisted breather solutions, and…
This thesis deals with the study of baryon spectra in the context of the $1/N_c$ expansion. The standard tool to study baryon properties is the constituent quark model. The results are naturally model dependent. The $1/N_c$ expansion…
We consider a 5D SUSY $SU(3)_c\times SU(2)_L\times U(1)_Y\times {\cal U}(1)$ model compactified on an $S^{(1)}/Z_2$ orbifold. To cancel anomalies arising from the presence of ${\cal U}(1)$, we employ a Chern-Simons term and also chiral…
Heavy-quark baryons are described as a bound heavy-meson-soliton system in a Lagrangian that combines chiral symmetry and heavy-quark symmetry. We introduce a ``Wess-Zumino type" term and show that it dominates the binding of a heavy meson…
Recent studies of the thermodynamic phase diagrams of the Gross-Neveu model (GN2), and its chiral cousin, the NJL2 model, have shown that there are phases with inhomogeneous crystalline condensates. These (static) condensates can be found…
In search of a phenomenological model that would describe physics from Big Bang to the Standard Model (SM), we propose a model with the following properties (i) above an energy about Lambda_{cr} > 10^{16} GeV there are Wess-Zumino…
We find that, when the dilaton is implemented as a (pseudo-)Nambu-Goldstone boson using a conformal compensator or "conformon" in a hidden gauge symmetric Lagrangian written to $O(p^4)$ from which baryons arise as solitons, namely,…
We study the properties of soliton solutions in an analog of the Skyrme model in 2+1 dimensions whose Lagrangian contains the Skyrme term and the mass term, but no usual kinetic term. The model admits a symmetry under area preserving…
We consider a version of the Gross-Neveu model in 1+1 dimensions with discrete chiral and continuous flavor symmetry (isospin). In 2+1 dimensions, this model is known as chiral Heisenberg Gross-Neveu model. Spontaneous symmetry breaking and…
In certain 1+1 dimensional field theoretic toy models, one can go all the way from microscopic quarks via the hadron spectrum to the properties of hot and dense baryonic matter in an essentially analytic way. This "miracle" is illustrated…
Due to sphaleron processes in the high-temperature symmetric phase of the standard model the cosmological baryon asymmetry is related to neutrino properties. For hierarchical neutrino masses, with $B-L$ broken at the unification scale…
We describe a new exact relation for large $N_c$ QCD for the long-distance behavior of baryon form factors in the chiral limit. This model-independent relation is used to test the consistency of the structure of several baryon models. All…
We study, for the first time, the phase structure of the Gross--Neveu model with a combination of a (constant) gravitational and a magnetic field. This has been made possible by our finding of an exact solution to the problem, namely the…
