Quantized affine Lie algebras and diagonalization of braid generators
AbstractLet Uq
$$(\hat{\mathcal{G}})$$
 be a quantized affine Lie algebra. It is proven that the universal R-matrix R of Uq
$$(\hat{\mathcal{G}})$$
 satisfies the celebrated conjugation relationR+ =TR withT the usual twist map. As applications, the braid generator is shown to be diagonalizable on arbitrary tensor product modules of integrable irreducible highest weight Uq
$$(\hat{\mathcal{G}})$$
-module and a spectral decomposition formula for the braid generator is obtained which is the generalization of Reshetikhin and Gould forms to the present affine case. Casimir invariants are constructed and their eigenvalues computed by means of the spectral decomposition formula. As a by-product, an interesting identity is found.

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.

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.

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.

Elliptic functions and maximal unitarity
Modern perturbative scattering amplitudes in gauge theories such as QCD are calculated from general principles of analyticity and unitarity without inspecting Feynman diagrams. By virtue of analyticity, amplitudes are reconstructed from their singularity structure, while unitarity ensures that residues factorize onto simpler objects. Starting from complex internal momenta and three-point amplitudes whose form is entirely xed by eld theory arguments, all trees are generated recursively

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.

LHC accessible second Higgs boson in the left-right model
A second Higgs doublet arises naturally as a parity partner of the standard model (SM) Higgs, once SM is extended to its left-right symmetric version (LRSM) to understand the origin of parity violation in weak interactions as well as to accommodate small neutrino masses via the seesaw mechanism. The flavor changing neutral Higgs (FCNH) effects in the minimal version of this model (LRSM), however, push the second Higgs mass to more than 15 TeV making it inaccessible at the LHC. Furthermore since the second Higgs mass is directly linked to the $W_R$ mass, discovery of a "low" mass $W_R$ ($M_{W_R}\leq 5-6$ TeV) at the LHC would require values for some Higgs self couplings larger than one. In this paper we present an extension of LRSM by adding a vector-like $SU(2)_R$ quark doublet which weakens the FCNH constraints allowing the second Higgs mass to be near or below TeV and a third neutral Higgs below 3 TeV for a $W_R$ mass below 5 TeV. It is then possible to search for these heavier Higgs bosons at the LHC, without conflicting with FCNH constraints. A right handed $W_R$ mass in the few TeV range is quite natural in this class of models without having to resort to large scalar coupling parameters. The CKM mixings are intimately linked to the vector-like quark mixings with the known quarks, which is the main reason why the constraints on the second Higgs mass is relaxed. We present a detailed theoretical and phenomenological analysis of this extended LR model and point out some tests as well as its potential for discovery of a second Higgs at the LHC. Two additional features of the model are: (i) a 5/3 charged quark and (ii) a fermionic top partner with masses in the TeV range.

Long-lived Light Mediator to Dark Matter and Primordial Small Scale Spectrum
We calculate the early universe evolution of perturbations in the dark matter energy density in the context of simple dark sector models containing a GeV scale light mediator. We consider the case that the mediator is long-lived, with lifetime up to a second, and before decaying it temporarily dominates the energy density of the universe. We show that for primordial perturbations that enter the horizon around this period, the interplay between linear growth during matter domination and collisional damping can generically lead to a sharp peak in the spectrum of dark matter density perturbation. As a result, the population of the smallest DM halos gets enhanced. Possible implications of this scenario are discussed.

An integrand reconstruction method for three-loop amplitudes
A bstractWe consider the maximal cut of a three-loop four point function with massless kinematics. By applying Gröbner bases and primary decomposition we develop a method which extracts all ten propagator master integral coefficients for an arbitrary triple-box configuration via generalized unitarity cuts. As an example we present analytic results for the three loop triple-box contribution to gluon-gluon scattering in Yang-Mills with adjoint fermions and scalars in terms of three master integrals.
