We investigate the masses and mixing of $\eta$, $\eta'$ mesons in the framework of twisted mass lattice QCD with $N_f=2+1+1$ dynamical quark flavors. For the first time we perform a controlled chiral and continuum extrapolation to obtain…

The various experimental bounds on flavor-changing interactions severely restrict the low-energy flavor structures of soft supersymmetry breaking parameters. In this work, we show that with a particular assumption of Yukawa couplings, the…

A big class of Feynman integrals, in particular, the coefficients of their Laurent series expansion w.r.t.\ the dimension parameter $\ep$ can be transformed to multi-sums over hypergeometric terms and harmonic sums. In this article, we…

We derived the tree level spectrum to an extension to the linear sigma model describing an EFT for an $SU(3)_c$ gauge theory with $N_f$ flavors of fermions and $N_1$ fermions have a mass $m_l$ and $N_2$ fermions have a mass $m_h$. We…

The mass spectra of light-flavor mesons are analyzed in a deformed AdS/QCD soft-wall model, driven by four distinct anomalous 5-dimensional mass corrections of the scalar field, coupled to Einstein--Hilbert gravity, from the QCD running…

We critically review heavy quark mass effects in DIS and their impact on global analyses. We lay out all elements of a properly defined general mass variable flavor number scheme (GM VFNS) that are shared by all modern formulations of the…

Reweighting is not a new method in lattice QCD, but a comprehensive analysis is missing in the literature. We close this gap by presenting: (i) a proof of an integral representation of the complex determinant of a complex matrix, (ii) a…

In the usual quantum field theoretical approach, neutrino oscillations are studied diagonalising either the mass or matter Hamiltonians. In this paper we analyse the problem from an on-shell amplitude perspective, where Lagrangians or…

We investigate fermion mass hierarchies in models with modular flavor symmetries. Several key conclusions arise from the observation that the determinants of mass matrices transform as 1-dimensional vector-valued modular forms. We…

We review recent lattice results for quark masses and low-energy hadronic parameters relevant for flavor physics. We do that by describing the FLAG initiative, with emphasis on its scope and rating criteria. The emerging picture is that…

It is generally believed that any particle to be discovered will have a TeV-order mass. Given its great mass, it must have a large decay width. Therefore, the interference effect will be very common if they and the Standard-Model (SM)…

We give an overview of recent progress in the study of fermion mass and flavor mixing phenomena. The hints exhibited by the quark and lepton mass spectra towards possible underlying flavor symmetries, from which realistic models of mass…

The thermodynamics of massless phi^4-theory is studied within screened perturbation theory (SPT). In this method the perturbative expansion is reorganized by adding and subtracting a mass term in the Lagrangian. We analytically calculate…

In this paper, we present an improvement of a method for computing scattering amplitudes that include external (polarized) fermions with the following features: the formulas are quite general and work for different kinematic configurations…

We present the results of 1+1+1 flavor QCD+QED simulation at the physical point, in which the dynamical quark effects in QED and the up-down quark mass difference are incorporated by the reweighting technique. The physical quark masses…

We formulate a linear difference equation which yields averaged semi-inclusive decay rates for arbitrary, not necessarily large, values of the masses. We show that the rates for decays $M \to m+\M'$ of typical heavy open strings are…

We study the amplitude for exchange of massless gauge bosons between pairs of massive scalar fields in Anti-de Sitter space. In the AdS/CFT correspondence this amplitude describes the contribution of conserved flavor symmetry currents to…

This dissertation investigates the flavor mixing effects in supersymmetric models on electroweak precision observables, Higgs boson mass predictions, B-physics observables, quark flavor violating Higgs decays, lepton flavor violating…

In Part 1 of this series of papers, we described a general method for determining the flavor symmetry of any 5d SCFT which can be constructed by integrating out BPS particles from some 6d SCFT compactified on a circle. In this part, we…

Multiflavor gauge theories of matter systems on a three-dimensional lattice have recently been widely investigated especially in connection with a possible symmetry enlargement at a continuous phase transition. Abelian models were studied…
