Mass spectrum and Lévy-Scrödinger relativistic equation

We introduce a modification in the relativistic hamiltonian in such a way that (1) the relativistic Schr\"odinger equations can always be based on an underlying L\'evy process, (2) several families of particles with different rest masses can be selected, and finally (3) the corresponding Feynman diagrams are convergent when we have at least three different masses

Mass spectrum from stochastic Levy-Schroedinger relativistic equations: possible qualitative predictions in QCD

Starting from the relation between the kinetic energy of a free Levy-Schroedinger particle and the logarithmic characteristic of the underlying stochastic process, we show that it is possible to get a precise relation between renormalizable field theories and a specific Levy process. This subsequently leads to a particular cut-off in the perturbative diagrams and can produce a phenomenological mass spectrum that allows an interpretation of quarks and leptons distributed in the three families of the standard model

Phenomenology from relativistic Levy-Schroedinger equations: Application to neutrinos

In continuation of a previous paper a close connection between Feynman propagators and a particular L\'evy stochastic process is established. The approach can be easily applied to the Standard Model SU_C(3)xSU_L(2)xU(1) providing qualitative interesting results. Quantitative results, compatible with experimental data, are obtained in the case of neutrinos

Levy processes and Schroedinger equation

We analyze the extension of the well known relation between Brownian motion and Schroedinger equation to the family of Levy processes. We consider a Levy-Schroedinger equation where the usual kinetic energy operator - the Laplacian - is generalized by means of a selfadjoint, pseudodifferential operator whose symbol is the logarithmic characteristic of an infinitely divisible law. The Levy-Khintchin formula shows then how to write down this operator in an integro--differential form. When the underlying Levy process is stable we recover as a particular case the fractional Schroedinger equation. A few examples are finally given and we find that there are physically relevant models (such as a form of the relativistic Schroedinger equation) that are in the domain of the non-stable, Levy-Schroedinger equations.Comment: 10 pages; changed the TeX documentclass; added references [21] and [22] and comments about them; changed definitions (11) and (12); added acknowledgments; small changes scattered in the tex
