Mixed harmonic charge dependent azimuthal correlations in Pb-Pb collisions at sNN\sqrt{s_{NN}} = 2.76 TeV measured with the ALICE experiment at the LHC

Mixed harmonic charge dependent azimuthal correlations at mid-rapidity in Pb-Pb collisions at $\sqrt{s_{NN}}$ = 2.76 TeV were measured with the ALICE detector at the LHC. A clear charge dependence for a series of correlations is observed both via the multi-particle cumulant and the event plane methods. Implications from these measurements for the possible effects of the local parity violation in QCD and for models which incorporate the azimuthal anisotropic flow and the local charge conservation on the kinetic freeze-out surface are discussed.Comment: 4 pages, 7 figures, Proceedings for Quark Matter 2012, Washington D.C., Augest 13-18, 201

Electroweak Sudakov effect on processes at TeV scale

In Next Linear Colliders at TeV scale, electroweak double logarithmic corrections, which come from the infrared behaviors of theory can not be neglected. It is well known that in QED and QCD, double logarithmic corrections are resummed to all orders, and these corrections can be exponentiated, resulting in the Sudakov form factor. However it is never trivial that double logarithmic corrections in electroweak theory can be exponentiated, because of the spontaneous breaking of symmetry and the pattern of that. We discuss the electroweak double logarithmic corrections at two loop level and explain the differences of ``Soft'' structure between the electroweak theory and QCD (the unbroken non-abelian gauge theory).Comment: 5 pages, 17 figures;Talk presented at Theory Meeting on Physics at Linear Colliders, March 15 - 17, 2001, KEK, Japa

Directed search, rationing and wage dispersion

This paper develops a microeconomic model of directed search, where firms are heterogeneous in the number of vacancies advertised, and wages affect workers' choices when both applying for jobs and accepting a job. An aggregate matching function is derived, which incorporates workers' preferences for firms. The aggregate level of matches is shown to be independent of the workers' preferences in the job acceptance stage. When firms' labor demands are heterogeneous, the matching market equilibrium outcome is suboptimal. Matching efficiency is, however, attained in equilibrium, when wages are employed as a rationing device. This results in wage dispersion, despite workers being homogeneous

Relativistic Particle in Complex Space Time

A modified version of the bilocal particle is presented in terms of complex space time. Unusual constraint structure of the model is studied, and a new concept of the physical equivalence is proposed in accordance with Dirac's conjecture. It is found that in the quantum theory the physical state conditions are compatible with existence of eigenstates of momentum only when the dimension of space time is four. An example of scattering amplitude is calculated.Comment: 15 page

BRS Cohomology of a Bilocal Model

We present a model in which a gauge symmetry of a field theory is intrinsic in the geometry of an extended space time itself. A consequence is that the dimension of our space time is restricted through the BRS cohomology. If the Hilbert space is a dense subspace of the space of all square integrable $C^{\infty}$ functions, the BRS cohomology classes are nontrivial only when the dimension is two or four.Comment: 15 pages, LaTeX.

Branes and Electric-Magnetic Duality in Supersymmetric QCD

We study the Type IIA limit of the M theory fivebrane configuration corresponding to N=1 supersymmetric QCD with massless quarks. We identify the effective gauge coupling constant that fits with Novikov-Shifman-Veinshtein-Zakharov exact beta function. We find two different Type IIA limits that correspond to the electric and magnetic descriptions of SQCD, as observed in the massive case by Schmaltz and Sundrum. The analysis is extended to the case of symplectic and orthogonal gauge groups. In any of the cases considered in this paper, the electric and magnetic configurations are smoothly interpolated via $M$ theory. This is in sharp contrast with the proposed derivation of N=1 duality within the weakly coupled Type IIA string theory where a singularity is inevitable unless one turns on a parameter that takes the theory away from an interesting point.Comment: 51 pages, 15 figures, LaTeX, minor correction
