In this work, we carefully study the energy eigen-values and splitting of heavy quarkonia as there exist $1/r^3$ and $\delta^3(\vec r)$ singular terms in the potential which make a direct numerical solution of the Schr\"{o}dinger equation…
We examine how the universality of two-nucleon interactions evolved using similarity renormalization group (SRG) transformations correlates with T-matrix equivalence, with the ultimate goal of gaining insight into universality for…
The problem of a particle of mass m in the field of the inverse square potential is studied in quantum mechanics with a generalized uncertainty principle, characterized by the existence of a minimal length. Using the coordinate…
We calculate the divergences of the generating functional of quenched Chiral Perturbation Theory at one loop, and renormalize the theory by an appropriate definition of the counterterms. We show that the quenched chiral logarithms can be…
We compute the renormalon ambiguity of the static potential, in the limit of a large number of flavors. An extrapolation of the QED result to QCD implies that the large distance behavior of the quark potential is arbitrary in perturbation…
We present a novel way to compute the one-loop ring-improved effective potential numerically, which avoids the spurious appearence of complex expressions and at the same time is free from the renormalization ambiguities of the…
We formulate a renormalization group (RG) for the interaction parameters of the general two-body problem and show how a limit cycle emerges in the RG flow if the interaction approaches an inverse square law. This limit cycle generates a…
Wave equations with energy-dependent potentials appear in many areas of physics, ranging from nuclear physics to black hole perturbation theory. In this work, we use the semi-classical WKB method to first revisit the computation of bound…
We derive the 1-loop Renormalization Group Equations for the parameters of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) taking into account the successive decoupling of each sparticle below its threshold. This is realized by a step…
For confining potentials of the form q(r)=r+p(r), where p(r) decays rapidly and is smooth for r>0, it is proved that q(r) can be uniquely recovered from the data {E_j,s_j}, where E_j are the bound states energies and s_j are the values of…
The non-renormalization theorem of chiral vertices and the generalized non-renormalization theorem of the photon self energy are derived in SQED on the basis of algebraic renormalization. For this purpose the gauge coupling is extended to…
We study strong tunneling (i.e. transmission $h/e^2R_T \gg 1$) in the single-electron box with many transverse modes at zero temperature. We develop a new renormalization group method which includes all charge states and requires no initial…
The scope of constrained differential renormalization is to provide renormalized expressions for Feynman graphs, preserving at the same time the Ward identities of the theory. It has been shown recently that this can be done consistently at…
Motivated by the concept of shape invariance in supersymmetric quantum mechanics, we obtain potentials whose spectrum consists of two shifted sets of equally spaced energy levels. These potentials are similar to the Calogero-Sutherland…
In this note we combine the "spin-argument" from [KLR15] and the $n$-dimensional incompatible, one-well rigidity result from [LL16], in order to infer a new proof for the compactness of discrete multi-well energies associated with the…
We study the free energy of four-dimensional CFTs on deformed spheres. For generic nonsupersymmetric CFTs only the coefficient of the logarithmic divergence in the free energy is physical, which is an extremum for the round sphere. We then…
It is shown how nucleon-nucleon potentials can be defined in N dimensions, using dimensional regularization to continue amplitudes. This provides an easy way to separate out contact ($\delta$-function) terms arising from renormalization. An…
The class of generalized gamma convolutions (GGC) is closed with respect to (wrt) change of scales, weak limits and addition and multiplication of independent random variables. Our main result adds the new property that GGC is also closed…
The study of the effective potential for non-renormalisable scalar SO(N) symmetric theories leads to recurrence relations for the coefficients of the leading logarithms. These relations can be transformed into generalised…
We discuss the subleading contact interactions, or counterterms, of the triplet channels of nucleon-nucleon scattering in the framework of chiral effective field theory, with S and P waves as the examples. The triplet channels are special…
