A constructive proof of the Wedderburn-Artin theorem

In this short note, we use the idempotent decomposition to give an explicit isomorphism from a semisimple Artinian ring to an external direct sum of finite full matrix rings over division rings

Top-Quark Decay at Next-to-Next-to-Leading Order in QCD

We present the complete calculation of the top-quark decay width at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD, including next-to-leading electroweak corrections as well as finite bottom quark mass and $W$ boson width effects. In particular, we also show the first results of the fully differential decay rates for top-quark semileptonic decay $t\to W^+(l^+\nu)b$ at next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD. Our method is based on the understanding of the invariant mass distribution of the final-state jet in the singular limit from effective field theory. Our result can be used to study arbitrary infrared-safe observables of top-quark decay with the highest perturbative accuracy.Comment: 5 pages, 6 figures; version accepted for publication in Physical Review Letter

SU(5) Symmetry of spdfg Interacting Boson Model

The extended interacting boson model with s-, p-, d-, f- and g-bosons being included (spdfg IBM) are investigated. The algebraic structure including the generators, the Casimir operators of the groups at the SU(5) dynamical symmetry and the branching rules of the irreducible representation reductions along the group chain are obtained. The typical energy spectrum of the Symmetry is given.Comment: 12 pages, 2 figure
