The Equation of State (EoS) of dense matter represents a central issue in the study of compact astrophysical objects and heavy ion reactions at intermediate and relativistic energies. We have derived a nuclear EoS with nucleons and hyperons…

We study existence, regularity, and qualitative properties of solutions to the system \[ -\Delta u = |v|^{q-1} v\quad \text{ in }\Omega,\qquad -\Delta v = |u|^{p-1} u\quad \text{ in }\Omega,\qquad \partial_\nu u=\partial_\nu v=0\quad \text{…
The spectrum of the massive Schwinger model in the strong coupling region is obtained by using the light-front Tamm-Dancoff (LFTD) approximation up to including six-body states. We numerically confirm that the two-meson bound state has a…
Using a multistate smearing method, Coulomb gauge wave functions of heavy-light mesons are studied in lattice QCD. Wave functions for the ground state, the first radially excited S-wave state, and the lowest P-wave states of a heavy-light…
We study the heavy quarkonium within the basis light-front quantization approach. We implement the one-gluon exchange interaction and a confining potential inspired by light-front holography. We adopt the holographic light-front…

We study Birkhoff sums over rotations (series of the form $\sum_{r=1}^{N}\phi(r\alpha)$), in which the summed function $\phi$ may be unbounded at the origin. Estimates of these sums have been of significant interest and application in pure…
Using some of the latest cosmological datasets publicly available, we derive the strongest bounds in the literature on the sum of the three active neutrino masses, $M_\nu$, within the assumption of a background flat $\Lambda$CDM cosmology.…
We study the minimality properties of a new type of "soft" theta functions. For a lattice $L\subset \mathbb{R}^d$, a $L$-periodic distribution of mass $\mu_L$ and an other mass $\nu_z$ centred at $z\in \mathbb{R}^d$, we define, for all…
We determine the leading order mesonic~($B_0$ and $F_0$) and baryonic~($m_0$, $D$ and $F$) SU(3) chiral perturbation theory low energy constants from lattice QCD. We employ gauge ensembles with $N_f=3$ (i.e., $m_u=m_d=m_s$)…
We consider a class of exact solutions to the Einstein equations in the presence of a scalar field, recently introduced in [arXiv:2307.09328, arXiv:2307.13588], and derive their generalized form with dyonic charges using Harrison…
The discrepancies between $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ data and the corresponding Standard Model predictions constitute the most significant hints for new physics (at the TeV scale or below) currently available. In fact, many scenarios that can…
In context of Brans-Dicke scalar-tensor theories of gravity, it has recently been obtained that the post-Newtonian parameters should be generalized in the context of strongly gravitating bodies, and that its generalization -- the so-called…
The Bethe-Salpeter (BS) equation in the ladder approximation is studied within a scalar theory: two scalar fields (constituents) with mass $m$ interacting via an exchange of a scalar field (tieon) with mass $\mu$. The BS equation is written…
The first results of a new application of the Thomas-Fermi statistical quark model to mesonic matter is presented. Interesting aspects of the theory are discussed, distinguishing such states from baryonic matter. A major motivation of this…
Based on recent progress on fermionic exchange symmetry we propose a way to develop new functionals for reduced density matrix functional theory. For some settings with an odd number of electrons, by assuming saturation of the inequalities…
