Polynomial algebras and exact solutions of general quantum nonlinear optical models I: two-mode boson systems
We present higher order polynomial algebras which are the dynamical symmetry algebras of a wide class of multi-mode boson systems in nonlinear optics and laser physics. We construct their unitary representations and the corresponding single-variable differential operator realizations. We then use the results to obtain exact (Bethe ansatz) solutions to the multi-mode boson systems, including the Bose-Einstein condensate models as the special cases.

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.

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.

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.

Screening of cosmological constant in non-local gravity
Abstract We discuss a possible mechanism to screen a cosmological constant in non-local gravity. We find that in a simple model of non-local gravity with the Lagrangian of the form, R + f ( □ − 1 R ) − 2 Λ where f ( X ) is a quadratic function of X , there is a flat spacetime solution despite the presence of the cosmological constant Λ . Unfortunately, however, we also find that this solution contains a ghost in general. Then we discuss the condition to avoid a ghost and find that one can avoid it only for a finite range of ‘time’. Nevertheless our result suggests the possibility of solving the cosmological constant problem in the context of non-local gravity.

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.

Perturbative unitarity constraints on general W' models and collider implications
We study perturbative unitarity constraints on general W 0 models by considering the high energy behavior of fermion scattering into gauge bosons. In most cases we survey, a Z 0 boson with a comparable mass must be present for the theory to be consistent, with xed couplings to the standard model gauge bosons and fermions. Applying these results to a class of W 0 models which explains the top quark forward{backward asymmetry observed at the Tevatron, we nd that a Z 0 must exist with a mass below 7 8 TeV and sizable coupling to the light quarks. While such a Z 0 is strongly constrained by existing experiments, we show that the LHC can explore the entire mass range up to the unitarity limit. We also show how it is possible, by raising the Z 0 mass consistent with unitarity, to explain the CDF Wjj excess in terms of a light W 0 , without generating an excess in Zjj events.

Cosmological solutions of a nonlocal model with a perfect fluid
A nonlocal gravity model which does not assume the existence of a new dimensional parameter in the action and includes a function f(−1R), with the d'Alembertian operator, is studied. By specifying an exponential form for the function f and including a matter sector with a constant equation of state parameter, all available power-law solutions in the Jordan frame are obtained. New power-law solutions in the Einstein frame are also probed. Furthermore, the relationship between power-law solutions in both frames, established through conformal transformation, is substantially clarified. The correspondence between power-law solutions in these two frames is proven to be a very useful tool in order to obtain new solutions in the Einstein frame.

Isospin-Violating Dark Matter and Neutrinos From the Sun
ux from their annihilation in the center of the Sun, in a class of theories where the dark matter-nucleon spin-independent interactions break the isospin symmetry. We point out that, while the direct detection bounds with heavy targets like Xenon are weakened and reconciled with the positive signals in DAMA and CoGeNT experiments, the indirect detection using neutrino telescopes can impose a relatively stronger constraint and brings tension to such explanation, if the annihilation is dominated by heavy quark or -lepton
