Computer package DIZET v. 6.45

The new version of the DIZET electroweak library is described. Changes and additional code features concerning the previous version are explained. The software allows one to make state-of-the-art theoretical predictions for pseudo-observable quantities, including higher-order radiative corrections. The current version of the DIZET library v. 6.45 incorporates advanced recent results of theoretical calculations. Numerical comparisons with the results of the previous version are performed. Estimates of theoretical uncertainties are discussed.Comment: 14 pages, 3 figures, 8 table

Gravitational potential of a homogeneous circular torus: new approach

The integral expression for gravitational potential of a homogeneous circular torus composed of infinitely thin rings is obtained. Approximate expressions for torus potential in the outer and inner regions are found. In the outer region a torus potential is shown to be approximately equal to that of an infinitely thin ring of the same mass; it is valid up to the surface of the torus. It is shown in a first approximation, that the inner potential of the torus (inside a torus body) is a quadratic function of coordinates. The method of sewing together the inner and outer potentials is proposed. This method provided a continuous approximate solution for the potential and its derivatives, working throughout the region.Comment: 10 pages, 9 figures, 1 table; some misprints in formulae were correcte

Physics in Riemann's mathematical papers

Riemann's mathematical papers contain many ideas that arise from physics, and some of them are motivated by problems from physics. In fact, it is not easy to separate Riemann's ideas in mathematics from those in physics. Furthermore, Riemann's philosophical ideas are often in the background of his work on science. The aim of this chapter is to give an overview of Riemann's mathematical results based on physical reasoning or motivated by physics. We also elaborate on the relation with philosophy. While we discuss some of Riemann's philosophical points of view, we review some ideas on the same subjects emitted by Riemann's predecessors, and in particular Greek philosophers, mainly the pre-socratics and Aristotle. The final version of this paper will appear in the book: From Riemann to differential geometry and relativity (L. Ji, A. Papadopoulos and S. Yamada, ed.) Berlin: Springer, 2017

Quantum Spin Chains and Riemann Zeta Function with Odd Arguments

Riemann zeta function is an important object of number theory. It was also used for description of disordered systems in statistical mechanics. We show that Riemann zeta function is also useful for the description of integrable model. We study XXX Heisenberg spin 1/2 anti-ferromagnet. We evaluate a probability of formation of a ferromagnetic string in the anti-ferromagnetic ground state in thermodynamics limit. We prove that for short strings the probability can be expressed in terms of Riemann zeta function with odd arguments.Comment: LaTeX, 7 page
