Revisiting the - tension in QCD from a 1PI-action perspective

Paolo Di Vecchia, Francesco Sannino, Graham M. Shore +2

We discuss the tension one encounters in trying to solve, simultaneously, the and strong- problems in QCD with light quarks and a small angle within QCD itself.…

ADM, BMS, and some puzzling interconnections

Gabriele Veneziano

The precise connection between the ADM and BMS formalisms is still far from being fully understood. It leads superficially to some puzzles whose resolution can provide new interest…

Constraints on the Pre-Big Bang scenario from a cosmological interpretation of the NANOGrav data

P. Conzinu, G. Fanizza, M. Gasperini +3

We discuss a recently proposed fit of the 15-year data set obtained from the North American Nanohertz Observatory for Gravitational Waves (NANOGrav) in terms of a relic stochastic…

Baryon-number -flavor separation in the topological expansion of QCD

David Frenklakh, Dmitri Kharzeev, Giancarlo Rossi +1

Gauge invariance of QCD dictates the presence of string junctions in the wave functions of baryons. In high-energy inclusive processes, these baryon junctions have been predicted t…

From the string vacuum to FLRW or de Sitter via corrections

P. Conzinu, G. Fanizza, M. Gasperini +3

We first make more precise a recent "Hamiltonian" reformulation of the Hohm-Zwiebach approach to the tree-level, -invariant string cosmology equations at all orders in the…

The gravitational eikonal: from particle, string and brane collisions to black-hole encounters

Paolo Di Vecchia, Carlo Heissenberg, Rodolfo Russo +1

Motivated by conceptual problems in quantum theories of gravity, the gravitational eikonal approach, inspired by its electromagnetic predecessor, has been successfully applied to t…
