Lectures on Semiclassical Methods for Composite Operators

Francesco Sannino

These lecture notes are intended as a coherent introduction to conformal field theory in general, and composite operators in particular, through a semiclassical framework for compu…

Infinite Heat Order in 3+1 Dimensions

Borut Bajc, Giulia Muco, Francesco Sannino +1

We investigate whether spontaneous symmetry breaking can persist up to arbitrarily high temperature in ultraviolet-complete quantum field theories in four spacetime dimensions. We…

Strong CP and the QCD Axion: Lecture Notes via Effective Field Theory

Francesco Sannino

These lecture notes provide a self-contained, graduate-level introduction to the strong problem and QCD axion physics from an effective field theory (EFT) viewpoint. We review…

Two-index SU(N) theories: QCD, Orientifolds, Super Yang-Mills, Lattice and Steven Weinberg's scattering legacy

Francesco Sannino

I review and improve on how two-index SU(N) gauge-fermion theories help access salient information about the large vacuum and spectrum of QCD, super Yang Mills and meson-meson…

Hyperfine Splitting of Low-Lying Heavy Baryons

M. Harada, A. Qamar, F. Sannino +2

We calculate the next-to-leading order contribution to the masses of the heavy baryons in the bound state approach for baryons containing a heavy quark. These corrections a…
