Holomorphic effective potential in general chiral superfield model

We study a holomorphic effective potential $W_{eff}(\Phi)$ in chiral superfield model defined in terms of arbitrary k\"{a}hlerian potential $K(\bar{\Phi},\Phi)$ and arbitrary chiral potential $W(\Phi)$. Such a model naturally arises as an ingredient of low-energy limit of superstring theory and it is called here the general chiral superfield model. Generic procedure for calculating the chiral loop corrections to effective action is developed. We find lower two-loop correction in the form $W^{(2)}_{eff}(\Phi)= 6/(4\pi)^4 \bar{W}^{'''2}(0){(\frac{W^{''}(\Phi)}{K^2_{\Phi\bar{\Phi}(0,\Phi)}})}^3$ where $K_{\Phi\bar{\Phi}}(0,\Phi)=\frac{\partial^2 K(\bar{\Phi},\Phi)} {\partial\Phi\partial\bar{\Phi}}|_{\bar{\Phi}=0}$ and $\zeta(x)$ be Riemannian zeta-function. This correction is finite at any $K(\bar{\Phi},\Phi), W(\Phi)$.Comment: LaTeX, 10 page

Properties of Scalar-Quark Systems in SU(3)c Lattice QCD

We perform the first study for the bound states of colored scalar particles $\phi$ ("scalar quarks") in terms of mass generation with quenched SU(3)$_c$ lattice QCD. We investigate the bound states of $\phi$, $\phi^\dagger\phi$ and $\phi\phi\phi$ ("scalar-quark hadrons"), as well as the bound states of $\phi$ and quarks $\psi$, i.e., $\phi^\dagger\psi$, $\psi\psi\phi$ and $\phi\phi\psi$ ("chimera hadrons"). All these new-type hadrons including $\phi$ have a large mass of several GeV due to large quantum corrections by gluons, even for zero bare scalar-quark mass $m_\phi=0$ at $a^{-1}\sim 1{\rm GeV}$. We find a similar $m_\psi$-dependence between $\phi^\dagger\psi$ and $\phi\phi\psi$, which indicates their similar structure due to the large mass of $\phi$. From this study, we conjecture that all colored particles generally acquire a large effective mass due to dressed gluons

A stochastic approach to path-dependent nonlinear Kolmogorov equations via BSDEs with time-delayed generators and applications to finance

We prove the existence of a viscosity solution of the following path dependent nonlinear Kolmogorov equation: $$\begin{cases} \partial_{t}u(t,\phi)+\mathcal{L}u(t,\phi)+f(t,\phi,u(t,\phi),\partial_{x}u(t,\phi) \sigma(t,\phi),(u(\cdot,\phi))_{t})=0,\;t\in[0,T),\;\phi\in\mathbb{\Lambda}\, ,u(T,\phi)=h(\phi),\;\phi\in\mathbb{\Lambda}, \end{cases}$$ where $\mathbb{\Lambda}=\mathcal{C}([0,T];\mathbb{R}^{d})$, $(u(\cdot ,\phi))_{t}:=(u(t+\theta,\phi))_{\theta\in[-\delta,0]}$ and $$\mathcal{L}u(t,\phi):=\langle b(t,\phi),\partial_{x}u(t,\phi)\rangle+\dfrac {1}{2}\mathrm{Tr}\big[\sigma(t,\phi)\sigma^{\ast}(t,\phi)\partial_{xx} ^{2}u(t,\phi)\big].$$ The result is obtained by a stochastic approach. In particular we prove a new type of nonlinear Feynman-Kac representation formula associated to a backward stochastic differential equation with time-delayed generator which is of non-Markovian type. Applications to the large investor problem and risk measures via $g$-expectations are also provided.Comment: 45 page

\L ojasiewicz-type inequalities and global error bounds for nonsmooth definable functions in o-minimal structures

In this paper, we give some {\L}ojasiewicz-type inequalities and a nonsmooth slope inequality on non-compact domains for continuous definable functions in an o-minimal structure. We also give a necessary and sufficicent condition for which global error bound exists. Moreover, we point out the relationship between the Palais-Smale condition and this global error bound.Comment: 14 page

Bound States of (Anti-)Scalar-Quarks in SU(3)_c Lattice QCD

Light scalar-quarks \phi (colored scalar particles or idealized diquarks) and their color-singlet hadronic states are studied with quenched SU(3)_c lattice QCD in terms of mass generation. We investigate ``scalar-quark mesons'' \phi^\dagger \phi and ``scalar-quark baryons'' \phi\phi\phi as the bound states of scalar-quarks \phi. We also investigate the bound states of scalar-quarks \phi and quarks \psi, i.e., \phi^\dagger \psi, \psi\psi\phi and \phi\phi\psi, which we name ``chimera hadrons''. All the new-type hadrons including \phi are found to have a large mass due to large quantum corrections by gluons, even for zero bare scalar-quark mass m_\phi=0 at a^{-1}\sim 1{\rm GeV}. We conjecture that all colored particles generally acquire a large effective mass due to dressed gluon effects.Comment: Talk given at The 17th International Spin Physics Symposium (SPIN2006), Kyoto, Japan, 2-7 Oct 200
