Light-front quark distributions in the nucleon and nucleon electromagnetic form factors
Longitudinal and transverse quark momentum distributions in the nucleon are
calculated from a phenomenological quark-nucleon vertex function obtained
through an investigation of the nucleon electromagnetic form factors within a
light-front framework.Comment: 6 pages, 11 figs. proceedings of LC2009, to appear in Nucl. Phys.
The pion electromagnetic form-factor in a QCD-inspired model
We present detailed numerical results for the pion space-like electromagnetic
form factor obtained within a recently proposed model of the pion
electromagnetic current in a confining light-front QCD-inspired model. The
model incorporates the vector meson dominance mechanism at the quark level,
where the dressed photon with decay in an interacting quark-antiquark
pair,wich absorbs the initial pion and produces the pion in the final state.Comment: Talk given in Light-Cone 2004, Amsterdam,NL., 16-20 August, 2004. To

Timelike and spacelike hadron form factors, Fock state components and light-front dynamics
A unified description of spacelike and timelike hadron form factors within a
light-front model was successfully applied to the pion. The model is extended
to the nucleon to study the role of pair production and of
nonvalence components in the nucleon form factors. Preliminary results in the
spacelike range are presented.Comment: 4 pages, espcrc1.sty. proceedings of FB XVIII (August 2006, Brazil),

Electromagnetic Hadron Form Factors and Higher Fock Components
Investigation of the spacelike and timelike electromagnetic form factors of
hadrons, within a relativistic microscopical model characterized by a small set
of hypothesis, could shed light on the components of hadron states beyond the
valence one. Our relativistic approach has been successfully applied first to
the pion and then the extension to the nucleon has been undertaken. The pion
case is shortly reviewed as an illustrative example for introducing the main
ingredients of our approach, and preliminary results for the nucleon in the
spacelike range are evaluated.Comment: 8 pages, 6 figs, espcrc1.sty included. Proceedings of Fifth

Electromagnetic form factors of the nucleon in spacelike and timelike regions
An approach for a unified description of the nucleon electromagnetic form
factors in spacelike and timelike regions is presented. The main ingredients of
our model are: a Mandelstam formula for the matrix elements of the nucleon
electromagnetic current; a 3-dimensional reduction of the problem on the
Light-Front performed within the so-called {\tt Propagator Pole Approximation}
({\bf PPA}), which consists in disregarding the analytical structure of the
Bethe-Salpeter amplitudes and of the quark-photon vertex function in the
integration over the minus components of the quark momenta; a dressed
photon vertex in the channel, where the photon is described by its
spin-1, hadronic component.Comment: 8 pages, 9 figs., macro added. Proceedings of the XI Conf. on

A MILP model for an extended version of the Flexible Job Shop Problem
A MILP model for an extended version of the Flexible Job Shop Scheduling
problem is proposed. The extension allows the precedences between operations of
a job to be given by an arbitrary directed acyclic graph rather than a linear
order. The goal is the minimization of the makespan. Theoretical and practical
advantages of the proposed model are discussed. Numerical experiments show the
performance of a commercial exact solver when applied to the proposed model.
The new model is also compared with a simple extension of the model described
by \"Ozg\"uven, \"Ozbakir, and Yavuz (Mathematical models for job-shop
scheduling problems with routing and process plan flexibility, Applied
Mathematical Modelling, 34:1539--1548, 2010), using instances from the
literature and instances inspired by real data from the printing industry.Comment: 15 pages, 2 figures, 4 tables. Optimization Letters, 201
Electromagnetic form factor of the pion in the space- and time-like regions within the front-form dynamics
The pion electromagnetic form factor is calculated in the space- and
time-like regions from -10 up to 10 , within a
front-form model. The dressed photon vertex where a photon decays in a
quark-antiquark pair is depicted generalizing the vector meson dominance
ansatz, by means of the vector meson vertex functions. An important feature of
our model is the description of the on-mass-shell vertex functions in the
valence sector, for the pion and the vector mesons, through the front-form wave
functions obtained within a realistic quark model. The theoretical results show
an excellent agreement with the data in the space-like region, while in the
time-like region the description is quite encouraging.Comment: 9 pages + 4 figures. To appear in Phys. Lett.
