Finite-dimensional representations of quantum affine algebras
We give a practical method for the construction of finite-dimensional representations of Uq(G), where G is a non-twisted affine Kac-Moody algebra with no derivation and zero central charge. It is well known that the finite-dimensional representations of a quantum group Uq(G) at generic q are simply deformations of the corresponding irreps of the classical Lie algebra G. This is, however, no longer true when one goes over to an affine Kac-Moody algebra G and its q-deformation Uq(G). In most cases it is necessary to take the direct sum of several irreducible Uq(G)-modules to form an irreducible Uq(G)-module which then becomes reducible at q=1. We illustrate our technique by working out explicit examples for G=C2 and G=G2. These finite-dimensional modules may, for example, determine the multiplet structure of quantum solitons in affine Toda theory.

Some algebraic identities in anomalous gauge theories
Some useful algebraic relations between the anomaly of Dmu Jmu and anomalous commutators are derived using only the canonical commutators and the equation of motion. Their applications are discussed.

Elliptic Gaudin models and elliptic KZ equations
The Gaudin models based on the face-type elliptic quantum groups and the XYZ Gaudin models are studied. The Gaudin model Hamiltonians are constructed and are diagonalized by using the algebraic Bethe ansatz method. The corresponding face-type Knizhnik–Zamolodchikov equations and their solutions are given.

Construction of basis vectors for symmetric irreducible representations of O(5) $ \supset$ O(3)
Abstract.A recursive method for the construction of symmetric irreducible representations of $ O(2l+1)$ in the $ O(2l+1)\supset O(3)$ basis for identical boson systems is proposed. The formalism is realized based on the group chain $ U(2l+1)\supset U(2l-1)\otimes U(2)$ , of which the symmetric irreducible representations are simply reducible. The basis vectors for symmetric irreducible representations of the $ O(2l+1)\supset O(2l-1)\otimes U(1)$ can easily be constructed from those of U(2l + 1) $ \supset$U(2l - 1) ⊗ U(2) $ \supset$O(2l - 1) ⊗ U(1) with no l -boson pairs, namely with the total boson number exactly equal to the seniority number in the system, from which one can construct symmetric irreducible representations of $ O(2l+1)$ in the $ O(2l-1)\otimes U(1)$ basis when all symmetric irreducible representations of O(2l - 1) are known. As a starting point, basis vectors of symmetric irreducible representations of O(5) are constructed in the $ O_{1}(3)\otimes U(1)$ basis, where $ O_{1}(3)\equiv O(2l-1)$ , when l = 2 , which is generated not by the angular momentum operators of the d -boson system, but by the operators constructed from d -boson creation (annihilation) operators $ d^{\dagger}_{\mu}$ ( $ d_{\mu}$ with $ \mu=1$ , 0, -1 . Matrix representations of $ O(5)\supset O_{1}(3)\otimes U(1)$ , together with the elementary Wigner coefficients, are presented. After the angular momentum projection, a three-term relation in determining the expansion coefficients of the $ O(5)\supset O(3)$ basis vectors, where the O(3) group is generated by the angular momentum operators of the d -boson system, in terms of those of $ O_{1}(3)\otimes U(1)$ is derived. The eigenvectors of the projection matrix with zero eigenvalues constructed according to the three-term relation completely determine the basis vectors of $ O(5)\supset O(3)$ . Formulae for evaluating the elementary Wigner coefficients of $ O(5)\supset O(3)$ are derived explicitly. Analytical expressions of some elementary Wigner coefficients of $ O(5)\supset O(3)$ for the coupling $ (\tau 0)\otimes(1 0)$ with resultant angular momentum quantum number L = 2$ \tau$ + 2 - k for $ k=0,2,3,\ldots,6$ with a multiplicity 2 case for k = 6 are presented.

Infinite Families of Gauge-Equivalent R-Matrices and Gradations of Quantized Affine Algebras
Associated with the fundamental representation of a quantum algebra such as Uq(A1) or Uq(A2), there exist infinitely many gauge-equivalent R-matrices with different spectralparameter dependences. It is shown how these can be obtained by examining the infinitely many possible gradations of the corresponding quantum affine algebras, such as and , and explicit formulae are obtained for those two cases. Spectral-dependent similarity (gauge) transformations relate the R-matrices in different gradations, Nevertheless, the choice of gradation can be physically significant, as is illustrated in the case of quantum affine Toda field theories.

Local Quasitriangular Hopf Algebras
We find a new class of Hopf algebras, local quasitriangular Hopf algebras, which generalize quasitriangular Hopf algebras. Using these Hopf algebras, we obtain solutions of the Yang-Baxter equation in a systematic way. The category of modules with finite cycles over a local quasitriangular Hopf algebra is a braided tensor category.

Coleman-de Luccia instanton in dRGT massive gravity
We study the Coleman-de Luccia (CDL) instanton characterizing the tunneling from a false vacuum to the true vacuum in a semi-classical way in dRGT (deRham-Gabadadze-Tolley) massive gravity theory, and evaluate the dependence of the tunneling rate on the model parameters. It is found that provided with the same physical Hubble parameters for the true vacuum HT and the false vacuum HF as in General Relativity (GR), the thin-wall approximation method implies the same tunneling rate as GR. However, deviations of tunneling rate from GR arise when one goes beyond the thin-wall approximation and they change monotonically until the Hawking-Moss (HM) case. Moreover, under the thin-wall approximation, the HM process may dominate over the CDL one if the value for the graviton mass is larger than the inverse of the radius of the bubble.

Direct detection of baryogenesis mechanism from squark decays at LHC
We investigate the feasibility of directly detecting a generation mechanism of the cosmic baryon asymmetry by repeating the same particle physics process inside the LHC. We propose a framework with R-parity and CP violating squark decays responsible for baryogenesis, which can be embedded in supersymmetric models and is partly motivated by naturalness. We argue that the baryon number generation here is closely related to lepton charge asymmetry on the resonance. We emphasize the importance of the single charged lepton plus multijet channel in the absence of significant missing energy in search of such a scenario.

TeV Gamma Ray Survey on the Direction of Fermi-LAT Pulsars with the Tibet Air Shower Array
We search for steady TeV γ-rays from 18 pulsars in the Fermi-LAT pulsar catalog using the Tibet air shower array. We observe 8 sources including the Crab against expected 0.41 sources at a significance of 2σ or more among the 18 pulsars. The chance probability from Poisson statistics is estimated to be 1.4×10-8.With the Crab excluded, it is estimated to be 1.8×10-7. These low chance probabilities clearly show that the Fermi pulsars have a statistically significant correlation with TeV γ-ray excesses observed by the Tibet air shower array.

Multi-loop Integrand Reduction with Computational Algebraic Geometry
We discuss recent progress in multi-loop integrand reduction methods. Motivated by the possibility of an automated construction of multi-loop amplitudes via generalized unitarity cuts we describe a procedure to obtain a general parameterisation of any multi-loop integrand in a renormalizable gauge theory. The method relies on computational algebraic geometry techniques such as Grobner bases and primary decomposition of ideals. We present some results for two and three loop amplitudes obtained with the help of the MACAULAY2 computer algebra system and the Mathematica package BASISDET.
