The electroweak gauge symmetry cannot be broken in a literal sense due to Elitzur's theorem. Thus, asymptotic states need to be manifestly and non-perturbatively gauge-invariant with respect to the electroweak symmetry. To take this…
We apply the method proposed by Fr\"ohlich, Morchio, and Strocchi to analyze the bound state spectrum of various gauge theories with a Brout-Englert-Higgs mechanism. These serve as building blocks for theories beyond the standard model but…
Formal field theory requires, even in the presence of a Brout-Englert-Higgs effect, to maintain manifest non-perturbative gauge invariance. The Fr\"ohlich-Morchio-Strocchi mechanism allows nonetheless an augmented perturbative treatment. We…
The standard approach to the infra-red problem is to use the Bloch-Nordsieck trick to handle soft divergences and the Lee-Nauenberg (LN) theorem for collinear singularities. We show that this is inconsistent in the presence of massless…
We develop the Floquet-Bloch theory of noninteracting fermions on a periodic lattice in the presence of a constant electric field. As long as the field lies along a reciprocal lattice vector, time periodicity of the Bloch Hamiltonian is…
We study systematically the period-doubled Bloch states for a weakly interacting Bose-Einstein condensate in a one-dimensional optical lattice. This kind of state is of form $\psi_k=e^{ikx}\phi_k(x)$, where $\phi_k(x)$ is of period twice…
Physics in (canonical) quantum gravity needs to be manifestly diffeomorphism-invariant. Consequently, physical observables need to be formulated in terms of manifestly diffeomorphism-invariant operators, which are necessarily composite.…
We study atomic Bloch oscillations in an ensemble of one-dimensional tilted superfluids in the Bose-Hubbard regime. For large values of the tilt, we observe interaction-induced coherent decay and matter-wave quantum phase revivals of the…
A manifestly diffeomorphism-invariant approach to canonical quantum gravity requires to use composite operators. These can be considered to be bound states of matter and/or gravitons, intrinsically non-perturbative objects. An analytical…
Block spin renormalization group is the main tool used in our program to see symmetry breaking in a weakly interacting many Boson system on a three dimensional lattice at low temperature. It generates operators, like the fluctuation…
We discuss the infrared structure of processes with massive quarks in the initial state. It is well known that, starting from next-to-next-to-leading order in perturbative QCD, such processes exhibit a violation of the Bloch-Nordsieck…
We point out that, in a spontaneously broken U(1) gauge theory, inclusive processes, whose primary particles are mass eigenstates that do not coincide with the gauge eigenstates, are not free of infrared logarithms. The charge mixing…
The manifestly gauge-invariant and non-perturbatively complete lattice formulation of the weak interactions and the Brout-Englert-Higgs effect is connected to the usual perturbative description in phenomenology via the…
Hard processes at the TeV scale exhibit enhanced (double log) EW corrections even for inclusive observables, leading to violation of the Bloch-Nordsieck theorem. This effect, previously related to the non abelian nature of free EW charges…
Infrared singularities in massless gauge theories are known since the foundation of quantum field theories. The root of this problem can be tracked back to the very definition of these long-range interacting theories such as QED. It can be…
Observable states are gauge-invariant. In a non-Abelian gauge theory, these are necessarily composite operators. We investigate the spectrum of these operators in the two-Higgs-doublet model. For this purpose, we are working along the lines…
We generalize Holley-Stroock's perturbation argument from commutative to quantum Markov semigroups. As a consequence, results on (complete) modified logarithmic Sobolev inequalities and logarithmic Sobolev inequalities for self-adjoint…
We study necessary and sufficient conditions for contraction and incremental stability of dynamical systems with respect to non-Euclidean norms. First, we introduce weak pairings as a framework to study contractivity with respect to…
A method to establish a qubit decomposition of a general qudit state is presented. This new representation allows a geometrical depiction of any qudit state in the Bloch sphere. Additionally, we show that the nonnegativity conditions of the…
We studied different levels of resummations of the exactly solvable Bloch-Nordsieck model in order to be able to compare the approximations with an exact result. We studied one-loop perturbation theory, 2PI resummation and Schwinger-Dyson…
