These notes combine material from short lecture courses given in Paris, France, in July 2001 and in Srni, the Czech Republic, in January 2003. They discuss groups of symplectomorphisms of closed symplectic manifolds (M,\om) from various…
Summary of the 10th Topical Workshop on Proton-Antiproton Collider Physics, Fermilab, May 9-13, 1995.
This paper reviews work, largely due to W. Simon and the author, on multipole theory of static spacetimes. The main purpose is to make this work, which lies at the interface of potential theory, conformal geometry and general relativity,…
Radiative corrections are crucial for modern high-precision physics experiments, and are an area of active research in the experimental and theoretical community. Here we provide an overview of the state of the field of radiative…
The inhomogeneous fluctuations that underlie structure formation - galaxies and CMB hotspots - might have been seeded by quantum cosmological fluctuations, as magnified by some inflationary mechanism. The Halliwell-Hawking model for these,…
Two recent attempts for overcoming the poor convergence of the perturbation expansion of the thermodynamic potentials of QCD are discussed: an HTL-adaption of ``screened perturbation theory'' and approximately self-consistent HTL…
Magnetized neutron stars are privileged places where strong electromagnetic fields as high as $\BQ=4.4\times10^9$~T exist, giving rise to non-linear corrections to Maxwell equations described by quantum electrodynamics (QED). These…
This paper discusses relativistic corrections to the thermal Coulomb potential for simple atomic systems. The theoretical description of the revealed thermal corrections is carried out within the framework of relativistic quantum…
Lectures given at the Trieste Summer School, 1992. These notes are an update of my review article "Classical and Quantum W-Gravity", preprint QMW-92-1, published in in "Strings and Symmetries 1991", with some extra material on W-geometry,…
This is a comment on a collection of statements gathered on the occasion of the Quantum Physics of Nature meeting in Vienna.
We utilize the close relation between the complex space $\textbf{C}^2$ and the real space $\textbf{R}^3$ to reformulate quantum mechanics in a manner which allows to, either or both, describe magnetic monopoles and quantize the underlying…
Talk presented at Strings '99 in Potsdam, Germany (July 19 - 24, 1999).
These are my notes for a talk at the The Tate Conjecture workshop at the American Institute of Mathematics in Palo Alto, CA, July 23--July 27, 2007, somewhat revised and expanded. The intent of the talk was to review what is known and to…
Although old, this may be of interest. In particular, I have had inquiries concerning the renormalization group calculations in Sec. 6.4. This is a Latex transcription. A scanned version of the original typed manuscript is available at…
This is a survey of M-regularity for coherent sheaves on abelian varieties and its applications, based on lectures given by the second author at the Seattle conference, in August 2005, and at the Luminy GAC workshop in October 2005. Section…
Distributions of charged leptons in semileptonic $\Lambda_c$ and $\Lambda_b$ decays can be used as spin analysers for the corresponding charm and bottom quarks. QCD corrections to the energy spectra of charged leptons have been given in the…
I agree with the authors of hep-th/0211149 that the claim made in Phys.Lett. B542, 282 (2002) is incorrect and that the derivation of its main formula, although correct, contains two compensating errors. In this reply the main formula of…
Notes from the lectures by the author at the 7th Jerusalem Winter School 1990 on Quantum Cosmology and Baby Universes. The lectures covered quantum mechanics for closed systems like the universe, generalized quantum mechanics, time in…
We discuss a number of novel applications of Quantum Chromodynamics to nuclear structure and dynamics, such as the reduced amplitude formalism for exclusive nuclear amplitudes. We particularly emphasize the importance of light-cone…
The results for one-loop correction to deep inelastic scattering of longitudinal polarized leptons on longitudinal polarized hadrons are obtained withing the framework of the standard theory of electroweak interactions and ordinary…
