Universal Quadratic Hierarchy Rule in Lepton Flavor Physics and Large Neutrino Mixing

Abstract

Large mixing parameters of neutrino mass eigenstates in the neutrino flavor eigenstates are determined, and interpreted as closely related to the neutrino and charged lepton mass-ratio patterns. The three known seemingly different charged lepton and quasi-degenerate neutrino deviation-from-extreme hierarchies are shown to be three particular manifestations of one unifying quadratic hierarchy-rule in lepton flavor physics.

Violation of Parity and Flavor Symmetries in a Nambu-Jona-Lasinio Model

We study a lattice Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model with certain continuous chiral and two-flavor symmetries. For the Hamiltonian of the model, we construct a ground state which breaks the parity and flavor symmetries. In our argument, the chiral symmetry plays a crucial role for proving the violation of the parity and flavor symmetries, although the model does not contain the so-called Wilson term.

Generic framework for non-perturbative QCD in light hadrons

In this paper, we review several topological aspects of the QCD vacuum and recent progress on this quantitative framework for the low-lying hadron physics rooted in QCD by introducing the vacuum as a liquid of pseudoparticles. We have developed systematic density expansion on the dilute vacuum to calculate the vacuum expectation values (VEVs) and generalize the calculations to hadronic matrix element and hadronic form factors using the instanton liquid model (ILM). Thereby, the nonperturbative physics can be analyzed in a systematic framework with a few parameters: instanton size $ρ$ and instanton density $n_{I+A}$, and current quark mass $m$.

Slow Quanta Bound States and a Possible Link to Dark Matter

We study the possibility of elementary energy quanta with vacuum propagation speed w < c, capable of interacting with each other to form massive bound states. The slow matter thus formed is shown to follow laws of Special Relativity mediated by velocity w rather than c, and to possess dynamical properties recalling some characteristics of Dark Matter.
