Electromagnetic instantons and asymmetric Hawking radiation of black holes

Archil Kobakhidze, Elden Loomes

We argue that the topological structure of Abelian gauge theories, such as Maxwell electrodynamics, in the background of a Euclidean Schwarzschild black hole manifests itself throu…

On the $\uptheta$-vacua and CP violation

Archil Kobakhidze

Recent claims have suggested the absence of CP violation in theories with a -vacuum structure, particularly in quantum chromodynamics. We highlight several key points, from a pe…

QCD and electroweak phase transitions with hidden scale invariance: implications for primordial black holes, quark-lepton nuggets and gravitational waves

Joshua Cesca, Archil Kobakhidze

We study the cosmological implications of the minimal non-linear realisation of scale invariance within the Standard Model (SM). This framework provides a technically natural expla…

Comments on the gauge dependence of the effective potential and the utility of the Vilkovisky-DeWitt formalism

Daniel W. Collison, Archil Kobakhidze

We provide some additional comments on the long-lived discussions surrounding an effective action and potential plagued by a number of ambiguities. We reinforce the importance of a…

Emergent Dark Matter

Christian Canete, Archil Kobakhidze

We entertain the possibility that the phenomena typically attributed to dark matter may have a fundamentally emergent nature, rather than arising from new particle degrees of freed…

-meson from topological properties of the electroweak vacuum

Gia Dvali, Archil Kobakhidze, Otari Sakhelashvili

We further scrutinize the evidence for a recently suggested pseudo-scalar particle, the electroweak -meson. Its existence is demanded by matching the removal of the weak…
