Preliminary results for the spectra of excited and exotic bottom mesons are presented. The calculation on a dynamical anisotropic ensemble exploits distillation, enabling the use of a large basis of interpolating operators including those…
We present a robust analysis of the $\eta^{(\prime)} \pi$ system in COMPASS data. We fit the extracted relative phases and intensities with a coupled-channel formalism enforcing both unitarity and analyticity. We provide a robust extraction…
Here I give some motivations for exotic signatures to search for at Run II of the LHC, focusing on displaced phenomena. I will discuss signatures arising from various different kinds of models including theories of dark matter and those…
Superintegrable classical Hamiltonian systems in two-dimensional Euclidean space $E_2$ are explored. The study is restricted to Hamiltonians allowing separation of variables $V(x,y)=V_1(x)+V_2(y)$ in Cartesian coordinates. In particular,…
Mesons with quantum numbers $J^{PC}=1^{-+}$ cannot be represented as simple quark-antiquark pairs. We explore hybrid configurations in the light meson sector comprising a quark, an antiquark and an excited gluon, studying the properties of…
Recent results on meson spectroscopy from lattice QCD are reviewed. The emphasis is on interesting states near thresholds like $Z_c^+(3900)$, $X(3872)$ and $D_{s0}^*(2317)$. Another focus is on the meson resonances in light, strange and…
We evaluate a hadronic molecule formed by a heavy meson and a nucleon respecting heavy quark symmetry. The tensor force of pion exchange potential plays a dominate role to produce an strong attraction in this system. Solving coupled channel…
Two-ordinary-meson scattering in large-$N_c$ QCD implies consistency criteria for intermediate-tetraquark contributions. Their fulfilment at $N_c$-leading order constrains the nature of the spectrum of genuinely exotic tetraquark states.
For 34 years it has been known that chiral supersymmetry (SUSY) in 3+1 dimensions has a very large Becchi-Rouet-Stora (BRS) cohomology space at ghost charge one. This suggests that there might be corresponding SUSY anomalies coming from…
Partial differential equations (PDEs) are at the heart of many mathematical and scientific advances. While great progress has been made on the theory of PDEs of standard types during the last eight decades, the analysis of nonlinear PDEs of…
A partial wave analysis (PWA) of the $\pi^- \pi^- \pi^+$ and $\pi^- \pi^0 \pi^0$ systems produced in the reaction $\pi^- p \to (3\pi)^-p$ at 18 GeV/$c$ was carried out using an \emph{isobar} model assumption. This analysis is based on 3.0M…
We consider the exotic vortex equations on compact Riemann surfaces. These generalise the well-known Jackiw-Pi and Ambj{\o}rn-Olesen vortex equations and arise as equations for Bogomolny-Prasad-Sommerfield-like configurations in…
Exotic hadrons of a few GeV/c^2 mass, exhibiting a spectrum determined by the perturbative interaction of a non-minimal number of valence quarks, have long been predicted as signals of the underlying QCD structure. Models that include the…
This letter establishes a procedure which can determine an algebra of exotic particles obeying fractional statistics and living in two-dimensional space using a non-commuting coordinates.
We investigate the pentaquark($P$) exotic baryons as soliton-antiflavored heavy mesons bound states in the limit of infinitely heavy meson mass. Our approach respects the chiral symmetry as well as the heavy quark symmetry. The results…
A model of light hybrid mesons and their strong decays is developed. The model employs a gluonic quasiparticle to describe low energy gluodynamics and uses the QCD Hamiltonian in Coulomb gauge to guide the construction of states and decay…
We classify the meson and baryon long lived resonances considering quarks with electric charge 5/3 and $-4/3$ (in units of $\vert e\vert$) predicted by some 3-3-1 models. Some of these exotic resonances have the usual electric charges…
The anomalous dimensions of hadronic interpolators contain dynamical information on the properties of the associated hadron states. We point out that they provide, in particular, a link by which gauge-invariant information on exotic…

In this short review we present and discuss all the experimental information about the charged exotic charmonium states, which have been observed over the last five years. We try to understand their properties such as masses and decay…
