Treating the strange quark mass as a heavy scale compared to the light quark mass, we perform a matching of the nucleon mass in the SU(3) sector to the two-flavor case in covariant baryon chiral perturbation theory. The validity of the $19$…
The feasibility of using lattice chiral fermions which are free of $O(a)$ errors for both the heavy and light quarks is examined. The fact that the effective quark propagators in these fermions have the same form as that in the continuum…
We investigate constraints on the properties of light dark matter which can be obtained from analysis of invisible quarkonium decays at high intensity electron-positron colliders in the framework of a low energy effective field theory. A…
We derive a time-dependent density functional theory appropriate for calculating the near-edge X-ray absorption spectrum in molecules and condensed matter. The basic assumption is to increase the space of many-body wave functions from one…
The generating functional of heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory at order O(Q^2) in the mean field approximation (with a pseudoscalar source coupling which is consistent with the PCAC-Ward identities on the current quark level) has been…
We discuss a new method to determine the low-energy couplings of the $\Delta S=1$ weak Hamiltonian in the $\epsilon$-regime. It relies on a matching of the topological poles in $1/m^2$ of three-point functions of two pseudoscalar densities…
The chiral expansion of the one-loop corrections to baryon masses is examined in a generic meson-cloud model with meson-baryon form factors. For pion loops, the expansion is rapidly convergent and at fourth order in $m_\pi$ accurately…
According to the Hugenholtz-Van Hove theorem, the nuclear symmetry energy $S(\rho)$ and its slope $L(\rho)$ at arbitrary densities can be decomposed in terms of the density and momentum dependence of the single-nucleon potentials in…
We summarize the current theoretical and experimental status of the spectral changes of vector mesons ($\rho$, $\omega$, $\phi$) at finite baryon density. Various approaches including QCD sum rules, effective theory of hadrons and bag…
In this note we show that a set is provably $\Delta^0_2$ in the fragment $I\Sigma_n$ of arithmetic iff it is $I\Sigma_n$-provably in the class $D_\alpha$ of $\alpha$-r.e. sets in the Ershov hierarchy for an $\alpha <_{\epsilon_0}…
In the literature of high-dimensional central limit theorems, there is a gap between results for general limiting correlation matrix $\Sigma$ and the strongly non-degenerate case. For the general case where $\Sigma$ may be degenerate, under…
We analyse the Dirac equation for slow fermions coupled to linearised massive gravity above the Minkowski background and derive the effective low-energy gravitational potential. The obtained results can be used in terrestrial laboratories…
We consider the effect of a non-zero lattice spacing on the low-energy effective theory of Wilson fermions with one flavor. Analytical results are given for both the chiral condensate and the microscopic spectral density of the Wilson Dirac…
Some time ago, the infrared limit of the Abelian Chern-Simons-Proca theory was investigated. In this letter, we show how the Chern-Simons-Proca theory can emerge as an effective low energy theory. Our result is obtained by means of a…
We summarize recent work to develop an effective theory of muon-to-electron conversion, based on a complete set of low-energy effective operators that are developed from a systematic expansion in velocities and momenta. The expansion…
We propose a fermion Chern-Simons field theory describing two- dimensional electrons in the lowest Landau level. This theory is constructed with a complete set of states, and the lowest Landau level constraint is enforced through a…
The coupling constants of the order $p^2$ low-energy weak effective lagrangian can be determined from the $K\to\pi$ and $K\to 0$ weak matrix elements, choosing degenerate quark masses for the first of these. However, for typical values of…
The quantum-statistical cluster expansion method of Lee and Yang is extended to investigate off-diagonal long-range order (ODLRO) in one- and multi-component mixtures of bosons or fermions. Our formulation is applicable to both a uniform…
It has been argued that the iso-scalar and iso-vector mesons play significant roles in nuclear matter and neutron star structures. We improve the extended linear sigma model with baryons, proposed in our previous work, by introducing the…
At high baryon chemical potential $\mu_B$, the equation of state of QCD allows a weak-coupling expansion in the QCD coupling $\alpha_s$. The result is currently known up to and including the full next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO)…
