Chiral tensors of mixed Young symmetry, which exist in the same spacetime dimensions $2 + 4n$ where chiral $p$-forms can be defined, are investigated. Such chiral tensors have been argued to play a central role in exotic formulations of…
We will demonstrate how calculations in toric geometry can be used to compute quantum corrections to the relations in the chiral ring for certain gauge theories. We focus on the gauge theory of the del Pezzo 2, and derive the chiral ring…
Let Gamma be a congruence subgroup of the Picard modular group of an imaginary number field k, and let D be the associated symmetric space. We describe a method to compute the integral cohomology of the locally symmetric space Gamma\D. The…
We have recently studied a simplified version of the path integral for a particle on a sphere, and more generally on maximally symmetric spaces, and proved that Riemann normal coordinates allow the use of a quadratic kinetic term in the…
For the O(N) field theory with lambda Phi^4 self-coupling, we construct the two-particle-irreducible (2PI), closed-time-path (CTP) effective action in a general curved spacetime. From this we derive a set of coupled equations for the mean…
We show that lattice calculation of K --> pi pi and $epe$ amplitudes for (8,1) and (27,1) operators to O(p^4) in chiral perturbation theory is feasible when one uses K --> pi pi computations at the two unphysical kinematics allowed by the…
We study the unknown coupling constants that appear at order $p^4$ in the Chiral Perturbation Theory analysis of $K \to \pi \gamma^* \to \pi l^+ l^-$, $K^{+-} \to \pi^{+-} \gamma \gamma$ and $K \to \pi \pi \gamma$ decays. To that end, we…
In this talk, I first motivate the use of Chiral Perturbation Theory in the context of Lattice QCD. In particular, I explain how partially quenched QCD, which has, in general, unequal valence- and sea-quark masses, can be used to obtain…
Chiral effective field theory predicts a specific charge symmetry violating amplitude for pion production. This term is shown to provide the dominant contribution to the forward-backward asymmetry in the angular distribution for the…
We prove that for any element $L$ in the completion of the space of smooth compact exact Lagrangian submanifolds of a cotangent bundle equipped with the spectral distance, the $\gamma$-support of $L$ coincides with the reduced micro-support…
The master formula approach to chiral symmetry breaking is used to analyze the phase shifts for $\pi\pi$ scattering in the elastic region. The results are in excellent agreement with the data for the phase shifts up to the K-K bar…
A formalism is developed to enable the construction of the effective action and related quantities in QED for the case of time-varying background electric fields. Some examples are studied and evidence is sought for a possible transition to…
The iso-singlet scalar resonance \sigma(600), found in the recent \pi\pi phase shift analysis, is pointed out to have the properties of the \sigma meson in the \sigma model. The role of the \lambda\phi^4 interaction as a source of the…
A new fit is done to obtain numerical values for the order $p^4$ low-energy-constants $L_i^r$ in Chiral Perturbation Theory. This includes both new data and new calculated observables. We take into account masses, decay constants,…
A brief introduction to the subject of chiral perturbation theory ($\chi$pt) is given, including a discussion of effective field theory and application to the upcoming Bates virtual Compton scattering measurement.
The chiral expansion of the low energy processes $\pi^0\to\gamma\gamma$ and $\eta\to\gamma\gamma$ is reconsidered with particular emphasis on the question of the evaluation of the two low-energy parameters from ${\cal L}^{WZ}_{(6)}$ which…
We present a unified picture which studies simultaneously the gamma gamma-->pi^+ pi^-, pi^0 pi^0, K^+ K^-, K^0 bar{K}^0, pi^0 eta reactions up to about sqrt(s)=1.4 GeV reproducing the experimental cross sections. The present work implements…
The Barbero-Immirzi parameter $\gamma$ appears as a coupling constant in the spinfoam dynamics of loop quantum gravity. In this work, we highlight that $\gamma$ can be understood as a measure of gravitational parity violation via a duality…
Given an open set with finite perimeter $\Omega\subset \mathbb{R}^n$, we consider the space $LD_\gamma^{p}(\Omega)$, $1\leq p<\infty$, of functions with $p$th-integrable deformation tensor on $\Omega$ and with $p$ th-integrable trace value…
We define an absolutely convergent series for the upper incomplete Gamma function $\Gamma(s,z)$ for $z\geq 1$ and $s\in \mathbb{C}$. We express this series using certain polynomials which we define using the Stirling numbers of the first…
