The Electrostrong Relation by Nikola Perkovic Institute of Physics and Mathematics, University of Novi Sad Abstract In an attempt to eliminate the Landau Pole from QED by “borrowing” asymptotic freedom from QCD, I was successful in uniting the coupling constants of the two, respectively, in the “Electrostrong relation”. The Landau pole, estimated at around , leads to a value of in the Electrostrong Relation, instead of infinity as was the case before. In addition,− the Strong CP problem is also solved proving that there is no eVneed for fine tuning in Q = . QCD. The first step however, was improving the measurement for the running of the strong coupling constant that can be tested experimentally for value of for the energy scale, QCD integration parameter offering such a prediction for the first time. Q (ΛQ) ΛQ 1 I Introduction The two dimensionless running constants and will be united in a single equation, the Electrostrong Relation, allowing us to both provide a solution for the Strong CP problem and remove the problem arising due to infinities inQ knownQ as the Landau pole [1] when on a very large value of the fine-structure constant therefore we will effectively make QED a mathematically complete theory. The Landau poleQ will be eliminated since QCD enjoys Q → ∞ asymptotic freedom [2], which will be “borrowed” offering us exactly what we need since - expansion (see Appendix 1 for a short introduction to -expansion) describes the asymptotic behavior of a denominator of convergents of continued fractions. The paper will also provide the first prediction for the value and improve the accuracy for the measurement of the running values of the strong coupling constant. (ΛQ) In QED vacuum polarization corrections to processes involving the exchange of virtual photons result in a dependence, of the effective fine structure constant , which is known as the running of a coupling constant which is, for the running of the fine structure constant, parameterizedQ as: Q (1.1) − − where at the scale of the Landau pole, approximatelyQ = −around ∆Q , the problem of infinities arises. This problem does not exist within QCD since in the running of the strong coupling constant there is asymptotic freedom. eV The strong interactionsQ do not violate CP symmetry in the manner of the weak interactions since the gauge interactions in QCD involve vector currents instead of chiral currents. Experiments too do not indicate CP violation in the QCD sector. However, if one writes the additional term in the Lagrangian density as: (1.2) A A μ ℒ = FμF̃ it contains the topological term with the QCD vacuumπ angle , which violates CP symmetry and it can, if non-zero, lead to experimentally detectable CP violating effects. In short this is reffered to as the Strong CP problem.

Let’s remember that Lebesgue measure was used in the introduction to - m a = N = gs = π expansion. A generalization of the Lebesgue measure for any locally compact√ group is known as the Haar measure [4]. We know that the simple compact Lie group we need is (see the paper by G. Nagy [5]). From the invariant metric with a unitarity, provided SUN that all eigenvalues different. For matrixes and we get and in a ds = gdx dx given set of coordinates we attain the invariant measure:† † † W W WdW + dWW = (2.1) dx = √det gx ∏ dx we parameterize the matrix as therefore we conclude that: W W = expitT (2.2) det g ~det Q ∏| − | the distribution of eigenvalues on the unitary group> is given by the invariant measure: (2.3) d = ∏|expi − exp(i)| ∏ d which is valid for groups. If we> impose the constraint mod and implement it -function, the density distribution of the eigenvalues in is given by the formula by a δ above as well. ForU theN group this would be of the form:Σ = π SUN SU q q ∑ e ∑ e (2.4) | | H = ∏|expi − exp(i)| = ∑ e̅q ∑ eq > | | q q We must first describe the running of and then proceed∑ e̅ to ∑connect e̅ it to the running of . Using -functions for QCD, a group theory we have for Q Q SU i=,,,…,n (2.5) b b b = − − − ⋯ π π π 3 where the QCD -function has a negative sign due to gluons carrying color charge which leads to self-interactions. At one-loop order we determine: (2.6) = − b ln Now we introduce the -expansion for a real number : q ∞ (2.7) − x = ∑ c q where for all we have where= doesn’t have to be an integer and is a floor function [6]. We connect equations 2.6 and 2.7 which yield: n c q c q (2.8) − Q ΛQ q = + 풪 meaning that from equation 2.7 equals π which isQ the correction due to QCD effects and is the integration constant which coresponds to the scale where the x x = Q perturbatively defined coupling would deverge and we use a value of but other values ΛQ = can be used as well.

We introduce the = (∑ eq) ⁄ ∑ eq vacuum expectation value of the Higgs field [7]. When a local rather than global symmetry is spontaneously broken the gauge field of the broken H symmetry becomes massive,v leading= toGeV what should be a Goldstone scalar to become a longitudinal mode of the massive vector, which works for both abelian and non-abelian local symmetries. In the non-abelian case, for each spontaneously broken generator of the local symmetry the corresponding gauge field becomes massive.

  • Finite Quantum Gauge Theories
    Finite quantum gauge theories Leonardo Modesto1,∗ Marco Piva2,† and Les law Rachwa l1‡ 1Center for Field Theory and Particle Physics and Department of Physics, Fudan University, 200433 Shanghai, China 2Dipartimento di Fisica “Enrico Fermi”, Universit`adi Pisa, Largo B. Pontecorvo 3, 56127 Pisa, Italy (Dated: August 24, 2018) We explicitly compute the one-loop exact beta function for a nonlocal extension of the standard gauge theory, in particular Yang-Mills and QED. The theory, made of a weakly nonlocal kinetic term and a local potential of the gauge field, is unitary (ghost-free) and perturbatively super- renormalizable. Moreover, in the action we can always choose the potential (consisting of one “killer operator”) to make zero the beta function of the running gauge coupling constant. The outcome is a UV finite theory for any gauge interaction. Our calculations are done in D = 4, but the results can be generalized to even or odd spacetime dimensions. We compute the contribution to the beta function from two different killer operators by using two independent techniques, namely the Feynman diagrams and the Barvinsky-Vilkovisky traces. By making the theories finite we are able to solve also the Landau pole problems, in particular in QED. Without any potential the beta function of the one-loop super-renormalizable theory shows a universal Landau pole in the running coupling constant in the ultraviolet regime (UV), regardless of the specific higher-derivative structure. However, the dressed propagator shows neither the Landau pole in the UV, nor the singularities in the infrared regime (IR). We study a class of new actions of fundamental nature that infinities in the perturbative calculus appear only for gauge theories that are super-renormalizable or finite up to some finite loop order.

  • Koide Mass Equations for Hadrons
    Koide mass equations for hadrons Carl Brannen∗1 18500 148th Ave. NE, T-1064, Redmond, WA, USA Email: Carl Brannen∗- [email protected]; ∗Corresponding author Abstract Koide's mass formula relates the masses of the charged leptons. It is related to the discrete Fourier transform. We analyze bound states of colored particles and show that they come in triplets also related by the discrete Fourier transform. Mutually unbiased bases are used in quantum information theory to generalize the Heisenberg uncertainty principle to finite Hilbert spaces. The simplest complete set of mutually unbiased bases is that of 2 dimensional Hilbert space. This set is compactly described using the Pauli SU(2) spin matrices. We propose that the six mutually unbiased basis states be used to represent the six color states R, G, B, R¯, G¯, and B¯. Interactions between the colors are defined by the transition amplitudes between the corresponding Pauli spin states. We solve this model and show that we obtain two different results depending on the Berry-Pancharatnam (topological) phase that, in turn, depends on whether the states involved are singlets or doublets under SU(2). A postdiction of the lepton masses is not convincing, so we apply the same method to hadron excitations and find that their discrete Fourier transforms follow similar mass relations. We give 39 mass fits for 137 hadrons.

We account for the 3-loop renormalization group evolution of the couplings of the Standard Model and for a part of two-loop corrections that involve the QCD coupling αs to initial conditions for their running. This is one step above the current state of the art procedure (\one-loop matching{two-loop running"). This results in reduction of the theoretical uncertainties in the Higgs boson mass bounds and predictions, associated with the Standard Model physics, to 1−2 GeV. We find that with the account of existing experimental uncertainties in the mass of the top quark and αs (taken at 2σ level) the bound reads MH ≥ Mmin (equality corresponds to the asymptotic safety prediction), where Mmin = 129 ± 6 GeV. We argue that the discovery of the SM Higgs boson in this range would be in arXiv:1205.2893v1 [hep-ph] 13 May 2012 agreement with the hypothesis of the absence of new energy scales between the Fermi and Planck scales, whereas the coincidence of MH with Mmin would suggest that the electroweak scale is determined by Planck physics.

  • Physics and Mathematics of Quantum Field Theory
    Physics and Mathematics of Quantum Field Theory Jan Derezinski´ (University of Warsaw), Stefan Hollands (Leipzig University), Karl-Henning Rehren (Gottingen¨ University) July 29, 2018 – August 3, 2018 1 Overview of the Field The origins of quantum field theory (QFT) date back to the early days of quantum physics. Having developed quantum mechanics, describing non-relativistic systems of a finite number of degrees of freedom, physicists tried to apply similar ideas to relativistic classical field theories such as electrodynamics following early attempts already made by the founding fathers of quantum mechanics. Since quantum mechanics is usually “derived” from classical mechanics by a procedure called quantization, the first attempts tried to mimick this procedure for classical field theories. But it was clear almost from the beginning that this endeavor would not work without qualitatively new ideas, owing both to the new difficulties presented by relativistic kinematics, as well as to the fact that field theories, while possessing a Lagrangian/Hamiltonian formulation just as classical mechanics, effectively describe infinitely many degrees of freedom. In particular, QFT completely dissolved the classical distinction between “particles” (like the electron) and “fields” (like the electromagnetic field). Instead, the dichotomy in nomenclature acquired a very different meaning: Fields are the fundamental entities for all sorts of matter, while particles are manifestations when the fields arise in special states. Thus, from the outset, one is dealing with systems with an unlimited number of particles. Early successes of quantum field theory consolidated by the early 50’s, such as precise computations of the Lamb shifts of the Hydrogen and of the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron, were accompanied around the same time by the first attempts to formalize this theory in a more mathematical fashion.

  • Renormalization of Dirac's Polarized Vacuum
    RENORMALIZATION OF DIRAC’S POLARIZED VACUUM MATHIEU LEWIN Abstract. We review recent results on a mean-field model for rela- tivistic electrons in atoms and molecules, which allows to describe at the same time the self-consistent behavior of the polarized Dirac sea. We quickly derive this model from Quantum Electrodynamics and state the existence of solutions, imposing an ultraviolet cut-off Λ. We then discuss the limit Λ → ∞ in detail, by resorting to charge renormaliza- tion. Proceedings of the Conference QMath 11 held in Hradec Kr´alov´e(Czechia) in September 2010. c 2010 by the author. This paper may be reproduced, in its entirety, for non-commercial purposes. For heavy atoms, it is necessary to take relativistic effects into account. However there is no equivalent of the well-known N-body (non-relativistic) Schr¨odinger theory involving the Dirac operator, because of its negative spectrum. The correct theory is Quantum Electrodynamics (QED). This theory has a remarkable predictive power but its description in terms of perturbation theory restricts its range of applicability. In fact a mathemat- ically consistent formulation of the nonperturbative theory is still unknown. On the other hand, effective models deduced from nonrelativistic theories (like the Dirac-Hartree-Fock model [40, 16]) suffer from inconsistencies: for instance a ground state never minimizes the physical energy which is always unbounded from below. Here we present an effective model based on a physical energy which can be minimized to obtain the ground state in a chosen charge sector. Our model describes the behavior of a finite number of particles (electrons), cou- pled to that of the Dirac sea which can become polarized.

  • A Unified Description of Quark and Lepton Mass Matrices in A
    A Unified Description of Quark and Lepton Mass Matrices in a Universal Seesaw Model (a) Yoshio Koide∗†and Hideo Fusaoka‡ Department of Physics, University of Shizuoka, 52-1 Yada, Shizuoka 422-8526, Japan (a) Department of Physics, Aichi Medical University, Nagakute, Aichi 480-1195, Japan (September 16, 2002) In the democratic universal seesaw model, the mass matrices are given by f LmLFR +F LmRfR + F LMF FR (f: quarks and leptons; F : hypothetical heavy fermions), mL and mR are universal for up- and down-fermions, and MF has a structure (1+bf X)(bf is a flavour-dependent parameter, and X is a democratic matrix). The model can successfully explain the quark masses and CKM mixing parameters in terms of the charged lepton masses by adjusting only one parameter, bf . However, so far, the model has not been able to give the observed bimaximal mixing for the neutrino sector. In the present paper, we consider that MF in the quark sectors are still “fully” democratic, while MF in the lepton sectors are partially democratic. Then, the revised model can reasonably give a nearly bimaximal mixing without spoiling the previous success in the quark sectors. PACS numbers: 14.60.Pq, 12.15.Ff, 11.30.Hv I. INTRODUCTION Thus, the model answers the question why the masses of quarks (except for top quark) and charged leptons are so small with respect to the electroweak scale Λ ( A. What is the universal seesaw model? L 102 GeV). On the other hand, the top quark mass en-∼ hancement is understood from the additional condition Stimulated by the recent progress of neutrino experi- detMF = 0 for the up-quark sector (F = U) [2–4].
