The structure of the standard model is concisely summarized, including the standard model Lagrangian, spontaneous symmetry breaking, the reexpression of the Lagrangian in terms of mass eigenstates after symmetry breaking, and the gauge…
We report briefly on an approach to quantum theory entirely based on symmetry grounds which improves Geometric Quantization in some respects and provides an alternative to the canonical framework. The present scheme, being typically…
Renormalization procedure is generalized to be applicable for non renormalizable theories. It is shown that introduction of an extra expansion parameter allows to get rid of divergences and express physical quantities as series of finite…
We extend the BRS and anti-BRS symmetry to the two point space of Connes' non-commutative model building scheme. The constraint relations are derived and the quantum Lagrangian constructed. We find that the quantum Lagrangian can be written…
The compatibility between the conformal symmetry and the closure of conformal algebras is discussed on the nonlinear sigma model. The present approach, above the basis of field redefinition employed in the Hamiltonian scheme, attempts the…
Supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models are obtained from linear sigma models by imposing supersymmetric constraints. If we introduce auxiliary chiral and vector superfields, these constraints can be expressed by D-terms and F-terms depending…
Lagrangian systems with nonholonomic constraints may be considered as singular differential equations defined by some constraints and some multipliers. The geometry, solutions, symmetries and constants of motion of such equations are…
There are two very important subjects in physics: Symmetry of dynamical models and nonlinearity. All really fundamental models are invariant under some particular symmetry groups. There is also no true physics, no our Universe and life at…
We continue the investigation from a previous paper concerning the super-renormalizablity of gauge models going to the third order of the perturbation theory. Here we consider only the Yang-Mills case and we prove that this property is true…
Non linear sigma models on Riemannian symmetric spaces constitute the most general class of classical non-linear sigma models which are known to be integrable. Using the current algebra structure of these models their canonical structure is…
We construct the minimal supersymmetric left-right theory and show that at the renormalizable level it requires the existence of an intermediate $B-L$ breaking scale. The subsequent symmetry breaking down to MSSM automatically preserves…
Ladders of field polynomial differential forms obeying systems of descent equations and corresponding to observables and anomalies of gauge theories are renormalized. They obey renormalized descent equations. Moreover they are shown to have…
The renormalization procedure of the non-linear SU(2) sigma model in D=4 proposed in hep-th/0504023 and hep-th/0506220 is here tested in a truly non-trivial case where the non-linearity of the functional equation is crucial. The simplest…
It is well known that the observed Higgs mass is more naturally explained in the NMSSM than in the MSSM. Without any violation of this success, there are variants on the NMSSM which can lead to new phenomenologies. In this study we propose…
