Polarization effects on W boson pair productions with the extra neutral gauge boson at the e^+ e^- Linear Collider
We perform the comprehensive analysis of the polarization effects on the e^+e^- -> W^+W^- process in the presence of the extra neutral gauge boson at the LC energies. Consideration of the polarizations of the produced W bosons and the beam polarizations provides substantial enhancements of the sensitivity to the Z-Z' mixing angles in various models and the asymmetry variables also give the strict constraints on the mixing angles. We find that the \chi-model and the left-right model get the strict constraint from \sigma_{LL}^{unpol} while the \psi-model and the \eta-model from the beam polarization asymmetry.

$B_d$ - $\bar{B}_d$ mixing versus $B_s$ - $\bar{B}_s$ mixing with the anomalous $Wtb$ couplings
We explore the effects of the anomalous $tbW$ couplings on the $\bd$ mixing and recently measured $\bs$ mixing. The combined analysis of mixings via box diagrams with penguin decays provides strong constraints on the anomalous top quark couplings. We find the bound from the $\bd$ mixing data is stronger than that from the $\bs$ mixing.

Implications of the recent CERN LEP data on nonuniversal interactions with the precision electroweak tests
We explore the nonuniversal interaction effects in terms of the precision variables epsilons with the recent CERN LEP data reported by the Electroweak Working Group. The epsilon variables with the nonuniversal interactions are calculated and constrained by the experimental ellipses in the {epsilon}{sub 1}{endash}{epsilon}{sub b}, {epsilon}{sub 2}{endash}{epsilon}{sub b}, and {epsilon}{sub 3}{endash}{epsilon}{sub b} planes. We find that the new data enable us to make a stringent test on the correction to Z{r_arrow}b{bar b} vertex. The {epsilon}{sub b} variable is sensitive to the Zb{bar b} couplings and thus plays a major role to give constraints on the nonuniversal interaction effects. Upon imposing the new data on {epsilon}{sub b}, we have the allowed range of the model parameter {kappa}{sub L}=0.0063{plus_minus}0.0030 at 1-{sigma} level with m{sub t}=175 GeV. Along with the minimal contact term, we predict the new physics scale {Lambda}{approximately} 1.6 TeV. By combining the experimental results from all planes we obtain the allowed range of {kappa}{sub L}: 0.003{lt}{kappa}{sub L}{lt}0.010 at 95{percent} C.L. {copyright} {ital 1997} {ital The American Physical Society}

Testing Higgs triplet model and neutrino mass patterns
The observed neutrino oscillation data might be explained by new physics at a TeV scale, which is testable in the future experiments. Among various possibilities, the low-energy Higgs triplet model is a prime candidate of such new physics since it predicts clean signatures of lepton flavor violating processes directly related to the neutrino masses and mixing. It is discussed how various neutrino mass patterns can be discriminated by examining the lepton flavor violating decays of charged leptons as well as the collider signatures of a doubly charged Higgs boson in the model.

Probing large extra dimensions with spin configuration of top quark pair production at the JLC
We explore signatures of large extra dimensions with a polarized electron/positrn beam at the Joint Linear Collider (JLC). We point out that spin informations can be useful to study indirect signals for large extra dimensions due to spin-2 nature of Kaluza-Klein gravitons. The spin configurations of the top quark pair production at e + e and γγ collisions provide an unique testing ground to search for effects of the large extra dimensions. Especially we show the forward-backward ~

Chern-Simons solitons, chiral model, and (affine) Toda model on noncommutative space
We consider the Dunne-Jackiw-Pi-Trugenberger model of a U(N) Chern-Simons gauge theory coupled to a nonrelativistic complex adjoint matter on noncommutative space. Soliton configurations of this model are related the solutions of the chiral model on noncommutative plane. A generalized Uhlenbeck's uniton method for the chiral model on noncommutative space provides explicit Chern-Simons solitons. Fundamental solitons in the U(1) gauge theory are shaped as rings of charge and spin − where the Chern-Simons level should be an integer upon quantization. Toda and Liouville models are generalized to noncommutative plane and the solutions are provided by the uniton method. We also define affine Toda and sine-Gordon models on noncommutative plane. Finally the first order moduli space dynamics of Chern-Simons solitons is shown to be trivial.

The Moduli space of two U(1) instantons on noncommutative R**4 and R**3 x S(1)
We employ the Afiyah-Drinfield-Hitchin-Manin method to derive the moduli space of two instantons in $U(1)$ gauge theory on a noncommutative space. We show by an explicit hyper-K\"ahler quotient construction that the relative metric of the moduli space of two instantons on ${R}^{4}$ is the Eguchi-Hanson metric and find a unique threshold bound state. For two instantons on ${R}^{3}\ifmmode\times\else\texttimes\fi{}{S}^{1},$ otherwise known as calorons, we give the asymptotic metric and conjecture a completion. We further discuss the relationship of caloron moduli spaces of A, D, and E groups to the Coulomb branches of three-dimensional gauge theory. In particular, we show that the Coulomb branch of the $\mathrm{SU}(2)$ gauge group with a single massive adjoint hypermultiplet coincides with the above two caloron moduli space.

1/4 BPS dyonic calorons
We explore the 1/4 BPS configurations of the supersymmetric gauge theories on $R^{1+3} \times S^1$. The BPS bound for energy and the BPS equations are obtained and the characteristics of the BPS solutions are studied. These BPS configurations describe electrically charged calorons, which are constituted of dyons and carry linear momentum along the compact direction. We carry out various approaches to the single caloron case in the theory of SU(2) gauge group.
