We discuss the possibility of relating the size and sign of the observed baryon asymmetry of the universe to CP violation observable at low energies, in a framework where the observed baryon asymmetry is produced by leptogenesis through out…
This is a set of introductory lecture notes on conformal field theory. Unlike most existing reviews on the subject, CFT is presented here from the perspective of a unitary quantum field theory in Minkowski space-time. It begins with a…
We investigate a composite model of spontaneous CP violation based on a new supersymmetric QCD as a solution to the strong CP problem. The scalar components of the meson chiral superfields obtain complex vacuum expectation values to break…
The possibility of explicit CP violation is studied in a supersymmetric model proposed by Dine, Seiberg, and Thomas, with two effective dimension-five operators. The explicit CP violation may be triggered by complex phases in the…
With the hypothesis that all independent degrees of freedom of basic building blocks should be treated equally on the same footing and correlated by a possible maximal symmetry, we arrive at an 4-dimensional space-time unification model. In…
It is argued, as a working hypothesis, that "normal" and dark matter interactions can only be T and CP violating. One way to implement this idea is to consider that time reversal in dark matter is implemented, not by an antiunitary…
This paper studies the utility of the processes $\gamma \gamma \to \gamma \gamma$, $\gamma Z$, and $ZZ$ in searching for sources of CP violation arising from energy scales beyond the production thresholds of planned future colliders. In the…
We study space-time symmetries in Non-Commutative (NC) gauge theory in the (constrained) Hamiltonian framework. The specific example of NC CP(1) model, posited in \cite{sg}, has been considered. Subtle features of Lorentz invariance…
CP violating asymmetries in both the production and the decays of $s$-channel neutral Higgs bosons at $\mu^+\mu^-$ colliders can be large. If the CP violation occurs in the muon-Higgs coupling, one observes a production asymmetry with…
The Coleman-Mandula (CM) theorem states that the Poincar\'e and internal symmetries of a Minkowski spacetime quantum field theory cannot combine nontrivially in an extended symmetry group. We establish an analogous result for quantum field…
We present a technique to determine the CP violating phases, as well as, the lifetime differences of the mass eigenstates for both $B_d$ and $B_s$, by considering correlated $B\bar{B}$ pairs produced at the $\Upsilon$ resonances. We do not…
Parks introduced a formulation of time dependent weak values in 2008, which is the formalism we use in this paper. In this paper we extend notions from time dependent weak values to show that Hamiltonians associated with weak value…
We discuss the possibility of relating the size and sign of the observed baryon asymmetry of the universe to CP violation observable at low energies, in a framework where the observed baryon asymmetry is produced by leptogenesis through the…
We study how to incorporate CP violation in the Froggatt--Nielsen (FN) mechanism. To this end, we introduce non-renormalizable interactions with a flavor democratic structure to the fermion mass generation sector. It is found that at least…
We identify a fundamental tension between the standard formulation of CP violation and diffeomorphism invariance in general relativity. The effective Hamiltonian approach, while phenomenologically successful, relies on a preferred time…
CP-violation in the Higgs sector remains a possible source of the baryon asymmetry of the universe. Recent differential measurements of signed angular distributions in Higgs boson production provide a general experimental probe of the CP…
The possibility of parity violation in a gravitational theory with torsion is extensively explored in four and higher dimensions. In the former case,we have listed our conclusions on when and whether parity ceases to be conserved, with both…
We suggest here that CP is a discrete {\it gauge} symmetry, and is therefore not violated by quantum gravity. We show that four dimensional CP can arise as a discrete gauge symmetry in theories with dimensional compactification, if the…
The definition of quantum singularity is extended from static space-times to conformally static space-times. After the usual definitions of classical and quantum singularities are reviewed, examples of quantum singularities in static…
We consider a class of baryogenesis models where the Lagrangian in the visible sector is Charge-Parity (CP) invariant and a baryon asymmetry is produced only when quantum statistics is taken into account. The CP symmetry is broken by matter…
