A search is presented for new Higgs bosons in proton-proton (pp) collision events in which a same-sign top quark pair is produced in association with a jet, via the pp -> tH/ A -> tt (c) over bar and pp -> tH/ A -> tt

Towards a nonperturbative construction of the S-matrix

Francesco Riva, Brian Quinn Henning, Matthew Thomas Walters

We present a nonperturbative recipe for directly computing the S-matrix in strongly-coupled QFTs. The method makes use of spectral data obtained in a Hamiltonian framework and can be applied to a wide range of theories, including potentially QCD. We demons ...

Quantum Field Theory in AdS Space instead of Lehmann-Symanzik-Zimmerman Axioms

Xiang Zhao

The boundary correlation functions for a quantum field theory (QFT) in a fixed anti-de Sitter (AdS) background should reduce to S-matrix elements in the flat-space limit. We consider this procedure in detail for four-point functions. With minimal assumptio ...

Constraints on anomalous Higgs boson couplings to vector bosons and fermions from the production of Higgs bosons using the tt final state

Jian Wang, Matthias Finger, Qian Wang, Yiming Li, João Miguel das Neves Duarte, Matthias Wolf, Varun Sharma, Yi Zhang, Lei Zhang, Tian Cheng, Yixing Chen, Alexis Kalogeropoulos, Ioannis Papadopoulos, Hua Zhang, Siyuan Wang, Jessica Prisciandaro, Xin Chen, Michele Bianco, Sebastiana Gianì, Sun Hee Kim, Davide Di Croce, Guido Andreassi, Arvind Shah, Jian Zhao, Rakesh Chawla, Jan Steggemann, Konstantin Androsov, Anna Mascellani, Federica Legger, Gabriele Grosso

A study of anomalous couplings of the Higgs boson to vector bosons and fermions is presented. The data were recorded by the CMS experiment at a center-of-mass energy of pp collisions at the LHC of 13 TeV and correspond to an integrated luminosity of 138 fb ...

Gravitational causality and the self-stress of photons

Brando Bellazzini

We study causality in gravitational systems beyond the classical limit. Using on-shell methods, we consider the 1-loop corrections from charged particles to the photon energy-momentum tensor - the self-stress - that controls the quantum interaction between ...

Nonperturbative Quantum Field Theory in Curved Spacetime

Kamran Salehi Vaziri

Quantum Field Theory(QFT) as one of the most promising frameworks to study high energy and condensed matter physics, has been mostly developed by perturbative methods. However, perturbative methods can only capture a small island of the space of QFTs. QFT ...

Electric dipole moment constraints on CP-violating heavy-quark Yukawas at next-to-leading order

Emmanuel Stamou

Electric dipole moments are sensitive probes of new phases in the Higgs Yukawa couplings. We calculate the complete two-loop QCD anomalous dimension matrix for the mixing of CP-odd scalar and tensor operators and apply our results for a phenomenological st ...

Quantum effects in Palatini Higgs inflation

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Andrey Shkerin, Sebastian Zell

We study quantum effects in Higgs inflation in the Palatini formulation of gravity, in which the metric and connection are treated as independent variables. We exploit the fact that the cutoff, above which perturbation theory breaks down, is higher than th ...

Feynman diagrams and the large charge expansion in 3-epsilon dimensions

Riccardo Rattazzi, Alexander Monin, Gabriel Francisco Cuomo, Gil Badel

In arXiv:1909.01269 it was shown that the scaling dimension of the lightest charge n operator in the U (1) model at the Wilson-Fisher fixed point in D = 4 - epsilon can be computed semiclassically for arbitrary values of lambda n, where lambda is the pertu ...

Large charge, semiclassics and superfluids : from broken symmetries to conformal field theories

Gabriel Francisco Cuomo

This thesis explores the application of semiclassical methods in the study of states with large quantum numbers for theories invariant under internal symmetries. In the first part of the thesis, we study zero-temperature superfluids. These provide a gener ...

Loops in AdS: from the spectral representation to position space

Din Carmi

We compute a family of scalar loop diagrams in AdS. We use the spectral representation to derive various bulk vertex/propagator identities, and these identities enable to reduce certain loop bubble diagrams to lower loop diagrams, and often to tree- level ...

A gyrokinetic model for the plasma periphery of tokamak devices

Paolo Ricci, Paolo De Los Rios, Rogério Manuel Cabete De Jesus Jorge, Baptiste Jimmy Frei

A gyrokinetic model is presented that can properly describe large and small amplitude electromagnetic fluctuations occurring on scale lengths ranging from the electron Larmor radius to the equilibrium perpendicular pressure gradient scale length, and the a ...

Evidence of Large Polarons in Photoemission Band Mapping of the Perovskite Semiconductor CsPbBr3

Matthias Wolf, Majed Chergui, Nicola Marzari, Marco Grioni, Alberto Crepaldi, Michele Puppin, Nicola Colonna, Gianmarco Gatti, Serhii Polishchuk, Riccardo De Gennaro, Thomas Roland Barillot

Lead-halide perovskite (LHP) semiconductors are emergent optoelectronic materials with outstanding transport properties which are not yet fully understood. We find signatures of large polaron formation in the electronic structure of the inorganic LHP CsPbB ...

A Multi-Agent Primal-Dual Strategy for Composite Optimization over Distributed Features

Ali H. Sayed, Sulaiman A S A E Alghunaim

This work studies multi-agent sharing optimization problems with the objective function being the sum of smooth local functions plus a convex (possibly non-smooth) function coupling all agents. This scenario arises in many machine learning and engineering ...

Towards the renormalization group flow of Horava gravity in 3+1 dimensions

Sergey Sibiryakov, Mario Herrero Valea

We compute the renormalization group running of the Newton constant and the parameter lambda in (3 + 1)-dimensional projectable Horava gravity. We use the background-field method, expanding around configurations with flat spatial metric, but nonvanishing s ...

Hidden and explicit quantum scale invariance

Mikhail Chapochnikov, Sander Johannes Nicolaas Mooij, Thibault Voumard

There exist renormalization schemes that explicitly preserve the scale invariance of a theory at the quantum level. Imposing a scale-invariant renormalization breaks renormalizability and induces new nontrivial operators in the theory. In this work, we stu ...

Studies in strongly coupled quantum field theories and renormalization group flows

This thesis presents studies in strongly coupled Renormalization Group (RG) flows. In the first part, we analyze the subject of non-local Conformal Field Theories (CFTs), arising as continuous phase transitions of statistical models with long-range interac ...

Dilaton-assisted generation of the Fermi scale from the Planck scale

Andrey Shkerin

In scale-invariant theories of gravity the Planck mass M-p, which appears due to spontaneous symmetry breaking, can be the only scale at the classical level. It was argued that the second scale can be generated by a quantum nonperturbative gravitational ef ...

Natural seesaw and leptogenesis from hybrid of high-scale type I and TeV-scale inverse

Luca Vecchi, Majid Ekhterachian

We develop an extension of the basic inverse seesaw model which addresses simultaneously two of its drawbacks, namely, the lack of explanation of the tiny Majorana mass term for the TeV-scale singlet fermions and the difficulty in achieving successful lept ...

Asymptotic scale invariance and its consequences

Mikhail Chapochnikov

Scale invariance supplemented by the requirement of the absence of new heavy particles may play an important role in addressing the hierarchy problem. We discuss how the Standard Model may become scale invariant at the quantum level above a certain value o ...
