Two Higgs bi-doublet left-right model with spontaneous P and CP violation
A left-right symmetric model with two Higgs bi-doublet is shown to be a consistent model for both spontaneous P and CP violation. The flavor changing neutral currents can be suppressed by the mechanism of approximate global U(1) family symmetry. The constraints from neural K meson mass difference ΔmK are calculated and it is demonstrated that a right-handed gauge boson W2 contribution in box-diagrams with mass well below 1 TeV is allowed due to a cancelation caused by a light-charged Higgs boson with a mass range of 150–300 GeV. The W2 contribution to εK can be suppressed from an appropriate choice of additional CP phases appearing in the right-handed Cabbibo-Kobayashi-Maskawa matrix. The model is also found to be fully consistent with B0 mass difference ΔmB and the mixing induced CP violation sin2βJ/ Ψ, which is usually difficult for the model with only one Higgs bi-doublet. The new physics beyond the standard model can be directly searched at the colliders LHC and ILC.

The Contribution of Reggeon in charge exchange processes
We discuss in this paper The experimental results on maximum psedo-rapidity $\eta_{max}$ distribution in the charge exchange process $e+p\to e+n+X$ in ZEUS Collaboration at HERA. We calculate the contributions of \regg ($\rho$-Reggeon associated with $\rho$ meson) from regge phenomenology and $\pi^{+}$-exchange from pion cloud model. The results show that neither the \regg-exchange nor the pion cloud model alone can explain the experimental data well, but after considering both these two processes together, by using Monte Carlo simulation, a good agreement between theoretical results and experimental data is found. This means that in discussing the large rapidity gap phenomena in deep inelastic scattering, both of the two processes play substantial role.

Probing the fourth generation Majorana neutrino dark matter
The heavy fourth-generation Majorana neutrino can be stable and contribute to a small fraction of the relic density of dark matter (DM) in the Universe. Because of its strong coupling to the standard model particles, it can be probed by the current direct and indirect DM detection experiments even it is a subdominant component of the whole halo DM. Assuming that it contributes to the same fraction of the local halo DM density as that of the DM relic density in the Universe, we show that the current Xenon100 data constrain the mass of the stable Majorana neutrino to be greater than the mass of the top quark. In the mass range from 200 GeV to a few hundred GeV, the effective spin-independent cross section for the neutrino elastic-scattering off nucleon is insensitive to the neutrino mass and mixing, and is predicted to be similar to 1.5 X 10(-44) cm(2), which can be reached by the direct DM detection experiments soon. In the same mass region the predicted effective spin-dependent cross section for the heavy neutrino scattering off proton is in the range of 2 X 10(-40) cm(2) similar to 2 X 10(-39) cm(2), which is within the reach of the ongoing DM indirect search experiments such as IceCube. We demonstrate such properties of the heavy neutrino DM in a fourth-generation model with the stability of the fourth Majorana neutrino protected by an additional generation-dependent U(1) gauge symmetry.

Chiral couplings of W ′ and top quark polarization at the LHC
If a TeV-scale charged gauge boson (W') is discovered at the Large Hadron Collider (LHC), it will become imperative to determine its chiral couplings to standard model (SM) fermions in order to learn about the underlying theory containing the W'. We describe the reconstruction of the tb decay mode of the W' at the LHC, and identify various kinematic observables such as the angular distributions of the top quark and the lepton resulting from top decay that can be used to disentangle the chiral couplings of the W' to SM fermions. We demonstrate by presenting analytical expressions, numerical simulations, as well as intuitive illustrations for these observables at the LHC that among the SM fermions, the polarized top quark can most directly probe the chirality of such couplings.

More precise determination of V-cb & V-ub and direct CP violation in charmless B decays
More precise extractions on the two important CKM matrix elements \V-cb\ and \V-ub\ are presented up to 1/m(Q)(2) corrections, based on the complete heavy-quark effective field theory (HQEFT) of QCD. The HQEFT as a large component QCD provides us with a complete theoretical framework for correctly and systematically evaluating the subleading and higher-order contributions in 1/m(Q) expansion of heavy quarks. A global analysis on charmless B decays is made, based on the isospin and SU(3) flavor symmetry. An isospin relation is found to be very useful for studying SU(3) symmetry-breaking effects of strong phases and exploring new types of electroweak penguin effects. The direct CP violation in charmless B decays is predicted, and its precise measurement is helpful either for testing SU(3) symmetry breaking effects of strong phases or for probing news physics beyond standard model.

Weak phase gamma and strong phase delta from CP averaged B ->pi pi and pi K decays
Assuming SU(3) symmetry for the strong phases in the four decay modes B-->pi(-)pi(+), pi(0)pi(+), pi(-)K(+), pi(-)(K) over bar(0) and ignoring the relative small electroweak penguin effects in those decays, the weak phase gamma and the strong phase delta can be determined in a model independent way by the CP averaged branching ratios of the four decay modes. It appears that the current experimental data for B-->pi pi and pi K decays prefer a negative value of cos gamma cos delta. By combining with the other constraints from V-ub B-d,s(0)-(B) over bar(d,s)(0) mixing, and the indirect CP-violating parameter epsilon(K) within the standard model, two favorable solutions for the phases gamma and delta are found to lie in the region 35 degrees less than or similar to gamma less than or similar to 62 degrees and 106 degrees less than or similar to delta less than or similar to 180 degrees or 86 degrees less than or similar to gamma less than or similar to 151 degrees and 0 degrees less than or similar to delta less than or similar to 75 degrees within 1 sigma standard deviation. It is noted that if allowing the standard deviation of the data to be more than 1 sigma, the two solutions could approach one solution with a much larger region for the phases gamma and delta. Direct CP asymmetry a(epsilon")((pi-K+)) in B -->pi(-)K(+) decay can be as large as the present experimental upper bound. Direct CP asymmetry a(epsilon")((pi+)pi-) in B-->pi(-)pi(+) decay can reach up to about 40% at the 1 sigma level.

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.

From Liouville to Chern-Simons, Alternative Realization of Wilson Loop Operators in AGT Duality
We propose an SL(2,R) Chern-Simons description of Liouville field theory (LFT), whose correlation function duals to partition function of N=2 SU(2) gauge theories. We give the dual expressions for conformal blocks, fusion rules, and Wilson loop operators in Chern-Simons theory. By realizing Wilson loop operator in Liouville as a Hopf link in S^3 on which lives an SL(2,R) Chern-Simons theory, we obtain an alternative description of monodromy of this loop operator in Liouville field theory as the ratio of link invariants. We show how to calculate t'Hooft loops in the simplest example -- the N=4 super Yang-Mills theory. The results we obtained are consistant with those in 0909.0945 and 0909.1105.

Non-Hermitian perturbations to the Fritzsch textures of lepton and quark mass matrices
Abstract We show that non-Hermitian and nearest-neighbor-interacting perturbations to the Fritzsch textures of lepton and quark mass matrices can make both of them fit current experimental data very well. In particular, we obtain θ 23 ≃ 45 ° for the atmospheric neutrino mixing angle and predict θ 13 ≃ 3 ° to 6° for the smallest neutrino mixing angle when the perturbations in the lepton sector are at the 20% level. The same level of perturbations is required in the quark sector, where the Jarlskog invariant of CP violation is about 3.7 × 10 − 5 . In comparison, the strength of leptonic CP violation is possible to reach about 1.5 × 10 − 2 in neutrino oscillations.

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.

N=4$$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ Super-Yang-Mills on conic space as hologram of STU topological black hole
A bstractWe construct four-dimensional N=4$$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ super-Yang-Mills theories on a conic sphere with various background R-symmetry gauge fields. We study free energy and supersymmetric Rényi entropy using heat kernel method as well as localization technique. We find that the universal contribution to the partition function in the free field limit is the same as that in the strong coupling limit, which implies that it may be protected by supersymmetry. Based on the fact that, the conic sphere can be conformally mapped to S1×ℍ3$$ {\mathbb{S}}^1\times {\mathrm{\mathbb{H}}}^3 $$ and the R-symmetry background fields can be supported by the R-charges of black hole, we propose that the holographic dual of these theories are five-dimensional, supersymmetric STU topological black holes. We demonstrate perfect agreement between N=4$$ \mathcal{N}=4 $$ super-Yang-MillstheoriesintheplanarlimitandtheSTUtopologicalblackholes.
