Difficulties of an Infrared Extension of Differential Renormalization
We investigate the possibility of generalizing differential renormalization
of D.Z.Freedman, K.Johnson and J.I.Latorre in an invariant fashion to theories
with infrared divergencies via an infrared operation.
Two-dimensional models and the four-dimensional theory
diagrams with exceptional momenta are used as examples, while dimensional
renormalization serves as a test scheme for comparison. We write the basic
differential identities of the method simultaneously in co-ordinate and
momentum space, introducing two scales which remove ultraviolet and infrared
singularities. The consistent set of Fourier-transformation formulae is
derived. However, the values for tadpole-type Feynman integrals in higher
orders of perturbation theory prove to be ambiguous, depending on the order of
evaluation of the subgraphs. In two dimensions, even earlier than this
ambiguity manifests itself, renormalization-group calculations based on
infrared extension of differential renormalization lead to incorrect results.
We conclude that the extended differential renormalization procedure does not
perform the infrared operation in a self-consistent way, as the
original recipe does the ultraviolet operation.Comment: (minor changes have been made to make clear that no infrared problems
occur in the original ultraviolet procedure of [1]; subsection 2.1 has been
added to outline the ideas a simple example), 26 pages, LaTeX, JINR preprint

Algebraic Curve for the SO(6) sector of AdS/CFT
We construct the general algebraic curve of degree four solving the classical sigma model on RxS5. Up to two loops it coincides with the algebraic curve for the dual sector of scalar operators in N=4 SYM, also constructed here. We explicitly reproduce some particular solutions
Complex Curve of the Two Matrix Model and its Tau-function
We study the hermitean and normal two matrix models in planar approximation
for an arbitrary number of eigenvalue supports. Its planar graph interpretation
is given. The study reveals a general structure of the underlying analytic
complex curve, different from the hyperelliptic curve of the one matrix model.
The matrix model quantities are expressed through the periods of meromorphic
generating differential on this curve and the partition function of the
multiple support solution, as a function of filling numbers and coefficients of
the matrix potential, is shown to be the quasiclassical tau-function. The
relation to softly broken N=1 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theories is discussed.
A general class of solvable multimatrix models with tree-like interactions is
considered.Comment: 36 pages, 10 figures, TeX; final version appeared in special issue of

Long-lived Charginos in the Focus-point Region of the MSSM Parameter Space
We analyse the possibility to get light long-lived charginos within the
framework of the MSSM with gravity mediated SUSY breaking. We find out that
this possibility can be realized in the so-called focus-point region of
parameter space. The mass degeneracy of higgsino-like chargino and two
higgsino-like neutralinos is the necessary condition for a long lifetime. It
requires the fine-tuning of parameters, but being a single additional
constraint in the whole parameter space it can be fulfilled in the Constrained
MSSM along the border line where radiative electroweak symmetry breaking fails.
In a narrow band close to the border line the charginos are long-lived
particles. The cross-sections of their production and co-production at the LHC
via electroweak interaction reach a few tenth of pb.Comment: LaTeX, 11 pages, 11 eps figure
Influence of carbon substitution on the heat transport in single crystalline MgB2
We report data on the thermal conductivity \kappa(T,H) in the basal plane of
hexagonal single-crystalline and superconducting Mg(B_{1-x}C_x)_2 (x= 0.03,
0.06) at temperatures between 0.5 and 50 K, and in external magnetic fields H
between 0 and 50 kOe. The substitution of carbon for boron leads to a
considerable reduction of the electronic heat transport, while the phonon
thermal conductivity seems to be much less sensitive to impurities. The
introduction of carbon enhances mostly the intraband scattering in the
\sigma-band. In contrast to the previously observed anomalous behavior of pure
MgB, the Wiedemann-Franz law is valid for Mg(B_0.94 C_0.06)_2 at low
temperatures.Comment: 4 pages, 4 figures. Final version to appear in Phys. Rev.
