The Kaluza-Klein theory and Randall-Sundrum theory are examined comparatively, with focus on the five dimensional (Dirac) fermion and the dimensional reduction to four dimensions. They are treated in the Cartan formalism. The chiral…
We argue that quantum electrodynamics combined with quantum gravity results in a new source of CP violation, anomalous non-conservation of chiral charge and quantisation of electric charge. Further phenomenological and cosmological…
CP violating interactions are required to realize the matter abundance of our Universe. It is however known that the standard model of particle physics does not contain sufficient CP violation. The electric dipole moment (EDM) of atomic…
We report theoretical results of the electric dipole moment (EDM) of $^{210}$Fr which arises from the interaction of the EDM of an electron with the internal electric field in an atom and the scalar-pseudoscalar electron-nucleus…
We discuss the testing of the Standard Model of CP violation, and the search for CP-violating effects from beyond the Standard Model, in $B$ decays. We then focus on the quantum mechanics of the experiments on CP violation to be performed…
We discuss CP violation in supersymmetric theories and show that CP phenomena can act as a probe of their origins, i.e., compactification and spontaneous supersymmetry breaking. CP violation as a probe of the flavor structure of…
The Randall-Sundrum (RS) model offers a compelling framework to address the hierarchy problem and provides new sources of CP violation beyond the Standard Model (SM). The motivation for studying CP violation in the RS model arises from the…
The Kaluza-Klein theory and Randall-Sundrum theory are examined comparatively, with focus on the behavior of the five dimensional (Dirac) fermion in the dimensional reduction to four dimensions. They are properly treated using the Cartan…
Supersymmetric models with nonuniversal down type squark masses can enrich the chiral structure and CP violating phenomena in $b\to s\gamma$ decays. Direct CP violation in $b\to s \gamma$, mixing induced CP violation in radiative $B_{d,s}$…
Motivated by recent claims questioning the existence of strong CP violation, we present a pedagogical review of CP violation in Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). Using fundamental properties of the QCD partition function, we analyze the…
In this PhD thesis, we first look at some manifestations of CP violation, such as electric dipole moments (EDMs) of elementary particles, both in the weak sector in the presence of neutrino masses (absent in the SM) as well as in the strong…
The phenomenon of CP violation is crucial to understand the asymmetry between matter and antimatter that exists in the Universe. Dramatic experimental progress has been made, in particular in measurements of the behaviour of particles…
We study four different models for CP violation: the standard (KM) model, the aspon model of spontaneous breaking and two models of soft breaking. In all except the standard model, the strong CP problem is addressed and solved. Testable…
We review several aspects of flavour-diagonal CP violation, focussing on the role played by the electric dipole moments (EDMs) of leptons, nucleons, atoms and molecules, which consitute the source of several stringent constraints on new…
CP violation in top physics is reviewed. The Standard Model has negligible effects, consequently CP violation searches involving the top quark may constitute the best way to look for physics beyond the Standard Model. Non-standard sources…
I present a review of current and near-future experimental investigations of CP violation. In this review, I cover limits on particle electric dipole moments (EDMs) and CP violation studies in the K and B systems. The wealth of results from…
New sources of CP violation, beyond the known sources in the standard model (SM), are required to explain the baryon asymmetry of the universe. Measurement of a non-zero permanent electric dipole moment (EDM) for fundamental particles, such…
It is shown that in R-parity violating models of supersymmetry, the CP violation observed in the kaon system could arise purely from the R-parity violating scalar interactions (A-terms), with no CP violation in the CKM matrix. The direct CP…
A possible supplementary mechanism of CP-violation to the Kobayashi-Maskawa theory is considered in the context of dynamical symmetry breaking.
In a recent paper, two of us (D.C. and R.N.M.) proposed a new way to break CP symmetry geometrically using orbifold projections. The mechanism can be realized in the five dimensional brane bulk picture. In this paper, we elaborate on this…
