Saturation physics and angular correlations at RHIC and LHC
We investigate the angular correlation between pions and photons produced in
deuteron-gold collisions at RHIC and proton-lead collisions at LHC using the
Color Glass Condensate formalism and make predictions for the dependence of the
production cross section on the angle between the pion and photon at different
rapidities and transverse momenta. Measuring this dependence would shed further
light on the role of high gluon density and saturation dynamics at RHIC and
LHC.Comment: 2-column EPJ C format, requires svjour.cls and svepj.clo; 4 pages, 4

Probing colored glass via photoproduction
In this paper, we calculate the cross-section for the photoproduction of
quark-antiquark pairs in the peripheral collision of ultra-relativistic nuclei,
by treating the color field of the nuclei within the Color Glass Condensate
model. We find that this cross-section is sensitive to the saturation scale
that characterizes the model. In particular, the transverse momentum
spectrum of the produced pairs could be used to measure the properties of the
color glass condensate.Comment: 25 pages LaTeX document - A reference and some footnotes added

Dilepton production from the Color Glass Condensate
We consider dilepton production in high energy proton-nucleus (and very
forward nucleus-nucleus) collisions. Treating the target nucleus as a Color
Glass Condensate and describing the projectile proton (nucleus) as a collection
of quarks and gluons as in the parton model, we calculate the differential
cross section for dilepton production in quark-nucleus scattering and show that
it is very sensitive to the saturation scale characterizing the target nucleus.Comment: 9 pages LaTeX document, 1 postscript figur
Photon production in high energy proton-nucleus collisions
We calculate the photon production cross-section in collisions under the
assumption that the nucleus has reached the saturation regime, while the proton
can be described by the standard parton distribution functions. We show that
due to the strong classical field of the nucleus, bremsstrahlung
diagrams become dominant over the direct photon diagrams. In particular, we
show that jet transverse momentum spectrum and correlations are very
sensitive to gluon saturation effects in the nucleus.Comment: 15 pages, 2 figure
Forward Quark Jets from Protons Shattering the Colored Glass
We consider the single-inclusive minijet cross section in pA at forward
rapidity within the Color Glass Condensate model of high energy collisions. We
show that the nucleus appears black to the incident quarks except for very
large impact parameters. A markedly flatter p_t distribution as compared to QCD
in the dilute perturbative limit is predicted for transverse momenta about the
saturation scale, which could be as large as Q_s^2 ~ 10 GeV^2 for a gold
nucleus boosted to rapidity ~10 (as at the BNL-RHIC).Comment: 9 pages, no figure
Level-rank duality via tensor categories
We give a new way to derive branching rules for the conformal embedding
(\asl_n)_m\oplus(\asl_m)_n\subset(\asl_{nm})_1. In addition, we show that
the category \Cc(\asl_n)_m^0 of degree zero integrable highest weight
(\asl_n)_m-representations is braided equivalent to \Cc(\asl_m)_n^0 with
the reversed braiding.Comment: 16 pages, to appear in Communications in Mathematical Physics.

From Golden Spirals to Constant Slope Surfaces
In this paper, we find all constant slope surfaces in the Euclidean 3-space,
namely those surfaces for which the position vector of a point of the surface
makes constant angle with the normal at the surface in that point. These
surfaces could be thought as the bi-dimensional analogue of the generalized
helices. Some pictures are drawn by using the parametric equations we found.Comment: 11 pages, 8 figure
