Holographic Wilsonian RG flow and sliding membrane paradigm
We study the relations between two different approaches to the holographic Renormalization Group (RG) flow at the dual gravity level: One is the radial evolution of the classical equation of motion and the other is the flow equation given by the holographic Wilsonian RG coming from the cut off independence. Apparently, the two flows look different. We give general proofs that the two flows are actually equivalent. The role of the momentum continuity (MC) is essential. We show that MC together with cut off independence gives the evolution equation of the boundary values. Equivalence of conductivity flows in two paradigm has been shown as an explicit example. We also get the connecting formula of Green functions and AC conductivity at arbitrary slice in terms of its value at horizon for various geometry backgrounds.

Comments on Baryon Melting in Quark Gluon Plasma with Gluon Condensation
We consider a black hole solution with a non-trivial dilaton from IIB super gravity which is expected to describe a strongly coupled hot gauge plasma with non-vanishing gluon condensation present. We construct a rotating and moving baryon to probe the screening and phases of the plasma. Melting of the baryons in hot plasma in this background had been studied previously, however, we show that baryons melt much lower temperature than has been suggested previously.

Mixed RG flows and hydrodynamics at finite holographic screen
A bstractWe consider a strongly interacting gauge theory at finite temperature and chemical potential and study renormalization group flows of transport coefficients in the framework of gauge/gravity duality. We first study them using the flow equations and compare the results with hydrodynamic results by calculating the Green functions on the arbitrary slice. Two results match exactly. Transport coefficients at arbitrary scale are obtained by calculating hydrodynamics Green functions. When either momentum or charge vanishes, transport coefficients decouple from each other.

Holographic RG flow and sound modes of sQGP
A bstractWe consider the hydrodynamics of strongly interacting quark gluon plasma in finite temperature and density using the holographic duality of charged black hole in anti DeSitter space. We calculate the transport coefficients at arbitrary energy scale by considering the holographic screen at finite radial position. We first calculate the flow of sound velocity in this method and check the consistence with previous result. Then we calculate diffusion constant of charge and find that Einstein relation between susceptibility, conductivity and diffusion constants will hold at arbitrary slice.

Holographic melting of heavy baryons in plasma with gluon condensation
We propose a Dirac-Born-Infeld (DBI) D5 vertex brane plus N(c) fundamental strings configuration to describe a baryon probe in strongly coupled gauge theory with gluon condensation at finite temperature via AdS/CFT correspondence. We investigate properties of this configuration in a dilaton deformed AdS(5) x S(5) background, in which IIB string theory is dual to super Yang-Mills theory in a state with a constant self-dual gauge field (F(mn) = F(mn)*) background. We find that for most values of temperature T and gluon condensation parameter q (q = pi(2) ), there always exists a screening length L(s). The relation L(s) similar to 1/T has been checked. We give the q dependence of L(s). We calculate the boost velocity nu(nu = - tanh eta) and angular velocity omega dependence of L(s) for a baryon probe, and obtain L(s) = L(0)* (1-nu(2))(1/4) for large nu and L(s) similar to omega(-1), which are consistent with those dependence relations in the point brane plus strings case, and find that the usual relations have been modified by q. We also calculate the mass of baryon and find T dependence of baryon mass.

Texture of Yukawa coupling matrices in general two Higgs doublet model
We discuss possible parallel textures of the Yukawa coupling matrices in the general two-Higgs doublet model (2HDM). In these textures the flavour changing neutral currents are naturally suppressed. Motivated by a phenomenologically successful texture with four texture zeros in the standard model, we propose a predictive ansatz for the Yukawa coupling matrices with the same texture in the general 2HDM. Compared with the six texture-zero-based ansatz proposed by Cheng and Sher, it is in better agreement with the data of quark mixings and CP violation. The four texture-zero-based ansatz predicts a different hierarchy in the Yukawa coupling matrix elements. As a consequence, in the lepton sector, the related Yukawa couplings are less constrained by the experimental upper bound of μ → eγ, which allows significantly larger predictions for other processes. The contributions from neutral scalar interactions to the lepton number violation decay modes l → l1l2l3 are calculated in both ansatz. It is shown that the predictions from the four texture-zero-based ansatz could be two orders of magnitude greater than that from the six texture-zero-based one. The branching ratio of μ → 3e and τ → 3μ can reach 7.5 × 10−17 and 1.3 × 10−10 respectively. The predicted ratio of Br(μ → 3e)/Br(τ → 3e) is also larger and almost parameter independent. These differences make the two ansatz easily distinguishable for future experiments.

Neutrino masses and flavor mixing in a generalized inverse seesaw model with a universal two-zero texture
A generalized inverse seesaw model, in which the 9 x 9 neutrino mass matrix has vanishing (1,1) and (1,3) submatrices, is proposed. This is similar to the universal two-zero texture which gives vanishing (1,1) and (1,3) elements of the 3 x 3 mass matrices in both the charged lepton and neutrino sectors. We consider the Z(6) x Z(6) group to realize such texture zeros in the framework of the generalized inverse seesaw model. We also analyze the universal two-zero texture in the general case and propose two Ansatze to reduce the number of free parameters. Taking account of the new result of theta(13) from the Daya Bay experiment, we constrain the parameter space of the universal two-zero texture in the general case and in the two Ansatze, respectively. We find that one of the Ansatze works well.

Anisotropic flow of identified particles in Pb--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{\rm NN}}} =$ 2.76 TeV with the ALICE detector
The measurement of anisotropic flow of identified particles, including charged pion, kaon, (anti-)proton as well as strange and multi-strange particles (${\rm K_{S}^{0}}$, ${\rm \Lambda}$, ${\rm \Xi}$ and ${\rm \Omega}$) are measured in Pb--Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{_{{\rm NN}}}}$ = 2.76 TeV with the ALICE detector. The results are compared to measurements at RHIC and hydrodynamic model calculations. The mass splitting and the scaling with the number of constituent quarks of the anisotropic flow are also discussed.

Flavor symmetry analysis of charmless B ---> VP decays
Based upon flavor SU(3) symmetry, we perform global fits to charmless B decays into one pseudoscalar meson and one vector meson in the final state. We consider different symmetry breaking schemes and find that the one implied by naive scaling, where strangeness-conserving and strangeness-changing amplitudes are related by the ratio of appropriate decay constants, is slightly favored over the exact symmetry case. The ((rho) over bar, (eta) over bar) vertex of the unitarity triangle (UT) constrained by our fits is consistent with other methods within errors. We have found large color-suppressed, electroweak penguin and singlet penguin amplitudes when the spectator quark ends up in the final-state vector meson. Nontrivial relative strong phases are also required to explain the data. The best-fit parameters are used to compute branching ratio and CP asymmetry observables in all of the decay modes, particularly those in the B(s) decays to be measured at the Tevatron and LHC experiments.

Isospin relation and SU(3) breaking effects of strong phases in charmless B decays
Isospin and flavor SU(3) relations in charmless hadronic B decays B→ ππ, πK are investigated in detail with paying attention to the SU(3) symmetry breaking effects in both amplitudes and strong phases. In general, the isospin and the flavor SU(3) structure of the effective Hamiltonian provide several relations among the amplitudes and strong phases. Whereas a global fit to the latest data shows that some relation seems not to be favorable for a consistent explanation to the current data within the standard model (SM). By considering several patterns of SU(3) breaking, the amplitudes and the corresponding strong phases are extracted and compared with the theoretical estimations. It is found that in the case of SU(3) limits and also the case with SU(3) breaking only in amplitudes, the fitting results lead to an unexpected large ratio between two isospin amplitudes ac3/2/au3/2, which is about an order of magnitude larger than the SM prediction. The results are found to be insensitive to the weak phase γ. By including SU(3) breaking effects on the strong phases, one is able to obtain a consistent fit to the current data within the SM, which implies that the SU(3) breaking effect on strong phases may play an important role in understanding the observed charmless hadronic B decay modes B→ ππ and πK. It is possible to test those breaking effects in the near future from more precise measurements of direct CP violation in B factories. PACS: 13.25.Hw – 11.30.Er – 12.15.Hh – 12.60.Fr
