Quantum Vacuum energy as the origin of Gravity
André LeClair
We explore the idea that quantum vacuum energy is at the origin of Gravity. We formulate a gravitational version of the electromagnetic Casimir effect, and provide…
Non-perturbative renormalization group for pseudo-hermitian scalar fields in 4D
André LeClair
We define a model of 2 coupled SU(2) doublets of scalar fields in spacetime dimensions which have a rich structure of renormalization group (RG) flows to 1-loop when the SU(2)…
A rich structure of renormalization group flows for Higgs-like models in 4 dimensions
André LeClair
We consider coupled Higgs doublets which transform in the usual way under SU(2). By constructing marginal operators which satisfy an operator product expansion based on the SU(…
Parameterizations of the Hubble Constant: Logarithmic vs Power-Law Expansion from the Binned Master Sample of SNe Ia
Maria Giovanna Dainotti, Avik Banerjee, Andre' LeClair +1
In view of the current and increasing evidence of a running Hubble constant, we investigate its redshift dependence within the flat CDM framework using a 20-bin analysis of the…
Spectral Flow for the Riemann zeros
André LeClair
Recently, with Mussardo we defined a quantum mechanical problem of a single particle scattering with impurities wherein the quantized energy levels are exactly equal to…
