    Critical view of the claimed Θ+\Theta^+ pentaquark

    We use a theoretical model of the γ d K+K n p\gamma ~d \to ~K^+ K^- ~n ~p reaction adapted to the experiment done at LEPS where a peak was observed and associated to the Θ+(1540)\Theta^{+}(1540) pentaquark. The study shows that the method used in the experiment to associate momenta to the undetected proton and neutron, together with the chosen cuts, necessarily creates an artificial broad peak in the assumed K+nK^+ n invariant mass in the region of the claimed Θ+(1540)\Theta^{+}(1540). It is shown that the LEPS fit to the data, used to make the claim of the Θ+(1540)\Theta^{+}(1540), grossly distorts the background. An alternative fit, assuming a background plus a fluctuation, returns a background practically equal to the theoretical one and a fluctuation identical to the one seen in the experimental KpK^- p spectrum of 2σ\sigma significance.Comment: Conference Proceedin

    Three body resonances in two meson-one baryon systems

    We report four Σ\Sigma's and three Λ\Lambda's, in the 1500 - 1800 MeV region, as two meson - one baryon S-wave (1/2)+(1/2)^+ resonances. We solve Faddeev equations in the coupled channel approach. The invariant mass of one of the meson-baryon pairs and that of the three particles have been varied and peaks in the squared three body TT-matrix have been found very close to the existing SS = -1, JP=1/2+J^P= 1/2^+ low lying baryon resonances. The input two-body tt-matrices for meson-meson and meson-baryon interaction have been calculated by solving the Bethe-Salpeter equation with the potentials obtained in the chiral unitary approach.Comment: corrected version, new channels evaluated, new references adde

    An analysis of the Lattice QCD spectra for Ds0(2317)D^*_{s0}(2317) and Ds1(2460)D^*_{s1}(2460)

    In this talk I present the results obtained using effective field theories in a finite volume from a reanalysis of lattice data on the KD()KD^{(*)} systems, where bound states of KDKD and KDKD^* are found and associated with the states Ds0(2317)D^*_{s0}(2317) and Ds1(2460)D^*_{s1}(2460), respectively. We confirm the presence of such states on the lattice data and determine the weight of the KDKD channel in the wave function of Ds0(2317)D^*_{s0}(2317) and that of KDKD^* in the wave function of Ds1(2460)D^*_{s1}(2460). Our results indicate a large meson-meson component in both cases.Comment: Conference Proceedings, Hadron 2017, Salamanca, Spai

    Infinite horizon economies with borrowing constraints

    We consider infinite horizon economies with incomplete financial markets. Securities are in positive net supply and may be infinite-lived. We establish existence of equilibria by requiring borrowing constrains instead of portfolio restrictions..Equilibrium, Infinite horizon incomplete markets, Infinite-lived real assets.
