DOI: 10.1007/jhep08(2017)110
Abstract: A bstractMany models of beyond Standard Model physics connect flavor symmetry with a discrete group. Having this symmetry arise spontaneously from a gauge theory maintains compatibility with quantum gravity and can be used to systematically… read more here.

DOI: 10.1103/physreva.96.046101
Abstract: Li and Miao [Phys. Rev. A 85, 042110 (2012)] proposed a non-Hermitian Hamiltonian that is neither Hermitian nor $PT$ symmetric but exhibits real eigenvalues for some values of the model parameters. In order to explain… read more here.

DOI: 10.1142/s0217751x23500549
Abstract: The Nelson-Seiberg theorem dictates conditions for the spontaneous breaking of the supersymmetry in Wess-Zumino models with generic, possibly non-renormalizable, superpotential; the existence of the R-symmetry is necessary while the spontaneous breaking of the R-symmetry is… read more here.

DOI: 10.3390/sym14020380
Abstract: We describe an explicit statistical model of local hidden variables that reproduces the predictions of quantum mechanics for the ideal Franson experiment and sheds light on the physical mechanisms that might be involved in the… read more here.
