A system composed of an ideal gas of N fermions interacting with an impurity particle in two space dimensions is considered. The interaction between impurity and fermions is given in terms of two-body point interactions whose strength is…
We propose a new model which can naturally explain origins of fermion generations, quark mass hierarchy, and Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix simultaneously from geometry of an extra dimension. We take the extra dimension to be an interval…
We present results from numerical simulations of the 2+1d SU(2)xSU(2) Nambu - Jona-Lasinio model with N_f=4 fermion flavours at zero and nonzero temperature T. At zero temperature, critical exponents are extracted from the scaling of the…
We study the motion of higher dimensional fermions in a non-singular 6D brane background with an increasing warp factor. This background acts as a potential well trapping fermions and fields of other spins near a 3+1 dimensional brane. By…
We derive a model-independent upper bound on the scale of Majorana-neutrino mass generation. The upper bound is $4\pi v^2/\sqrt 3 m_\nu$, where $v \simeq 246$ GeV is the weak scale and $m_\nu$ is the Majorana neutrino mass. For neutrino…

Motivated by recent theoretical approaches to high temperature superconductivity, we study dynamical mass generation in three dimensional quantum electrodynamics ${\rm QED}_{3}$) in presence of irrelevant four-fermion quartic terms. The…
When technicolor (TC), QCD, extended technicolor (ETC) and other interactions become coupled through their different Schwinger-Dyson equations, the solution of these equations are modified compared to those of the isolated equations. The…
We revisit the calculation of the fermion self-energy in QED in the presence of a magnetic field. We show that, after carrying out the renormalization procedure and identifying the most general perturbative tensor structure for the modified…
Masses of fermions in the SO(10) 16-plet are constructed using only the 10, 120 and 126 scalar multiplets. The mass matrices are restricted to be hermitian and the theory is constructed to have certain assumed quark masses, charged lepton…
The phenomenon of the so called Fermion condensation, a phase transition analogous to Bose condensation but for Fermions, postulated in the past to occur in systems with strong momentum dependent forces, is reanalysed in a model with…
In extra dimensions, the quark and lepton mass hierarchy can be reproduced from the same order bulk mass parameters, and standard model fermion families can be generated from one generation in the high dimensional space. We try to explain…
Starting from the collisional Boltzmann equation, we derive for the first time and from first principles the Boltzmann hierarchy for neutrinos including interactions with a scalar particle. Such interactions appear, for example, in…
We discuss several aspects of higher dimensional models that contain bulk gauge and fermion fields only. In particular we argue that non-standard boundary conditions involving charge-conjugate fermion fields offer attractive model building…
The fermion and meson sectors of the quark-level SU(2) linear sigma model are dynamically generated from a meson-quark Lagrangian, with the quark (q) and meson ($\sigma,\pi$) fields all treated as elementary, having neither bare masses nor…
By developing the mean-field theory valid for large $N$, we investigate the problem of two light fermions interacting via a zero-range potential with $N$ heavy fermions in two dimensions. We obtain numerical evidence that this system is…
A Fermi liquid model for hadrons has been suggested for the hadrons in medium. The hadrons are supposed to behave like quasi particle as Fermi excitation while in the medium and the effective mass of the hadrons have been estimated using…
A mechanism for determining fermion masses in four spacetime dimensions is presented, which uses a scalar-field domain wall extending in a fifth spacelike dimension and a special choice of Yukawa coupling constants. A bounded and discrete…
Recently a new mechanism has been proposed to cure the problem of fermion mass hierarchy in the Standard Model (SM) model. In this scenario, all SM charged fermions other than top quark arise from higher dimensional operators involving the…
Taking inspiration from lattice QCD results, we argue that a non-perturbative mass term for fermions can be generated as a consequence of the dynamical phenomenon of spontaneous chiral symmetry breaking, in turn triggered by the explicitly…
