The Influence of H. Grassmann on Italian Projective N-Dimensional Geometry
1996
On May 29, 1883, Corrado Segre took his doctorate in Turin (Torino), under Enrico D’Ovidio’s guidance. His thesis (Segre 1884a,b) was published one year later in the Journal of the local Academy of Science, and after a short time it became a fundamental starting point for the development of Italian projective n-dimensional geometry.
A note on projective coordinate systems of modular lattices
1993
This note clarifies the combinatorial nature of projective coordinate systems of modular upper continuous lattices. It generalizes the classical relationship between 3-dimensional Desarguesian configurations and coordinate systems of projective 3-spaces.
Coordinate space calculation of two- and three-loop sunrise-type diagrams, elliptic functions and truncated Bessel integral identities
2019
We integrate three-loop sunrise-type vacuum diagrams in $D_0=4$ dimensions with four different masses using configuration space techniques. The finite parts of our results are in numerical agreement with corresponding three-loop calculations in momentum space. Using some of the closed form results of the momentum space calculation we arrive at new integral identities involving truncated integrals of products of Bessel functions. For the non-degenerate finite two-loop sunrise-type vacuum diagram in $D_0=2$ dimensions we make use of the known closed form $p$-space result to express the moment of a product of three Bessel functions in terms of a sum of Claussen polylogarithms. Using results fo…
Solving the NLO BK equation in coordinate space
2015
We present results from a numerical solution of the next-to-leading order (NLO) Balitsky-Kovchegov (BK) equation in coordinate space in the large Nc limit. We show that the solution is not stable for initial conditions that are close to those used in phenomenological applications of the leading order equation. We identify the problematic terms in the NLO kernel as being related to large logarithms of a small parent dipole size, and also show that rewriting the equation in terms of the "conformal dipole" does not remove the problem. Our results qualitatively agree with expectations based on the behavior of the linear NLO BFKL equation.
On the pion cloud of the nucleon
2003
We evaluate the two--pion contribution to the nucleon electromagnetic form factors by use of dispersion analysis and chiral perturbation theory. After subtraction of the rho--meson component, we calculate the distributions of charge and magnetization in coordinate space, which can be interpreted as the effects of the pion cloud. We find that the charge distribution of this pion cloud effect peaks at distances of about 0.3 fm. Furthermore, we calculate the contribution of the pion cloud to the isovector charges and radii of the nucleon.
On the use of a running coupling in the calculation of forward hadron production at next-to-leading order
2018
We study a puzzle raised recently regarding the running coupling prescription used in the calculation of forward particle production in proton-nucleus collisions at next-to-leading order: using a coordinate space prescription which is consistent with the one used in the high energy evolution of the target leads to results which can be two orders of magnitude larger than the ones obtained with a momentum space prescription. We show that this is an artefact of the Fourier transform involved when passing between coordinate and momentum space and propose a new coordinate space prescription which avoids this problem.
Lorentz-covariant coordinate-space representation of the leading hadronic contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon
2017
We present a Lorentz-covariant, Euclidean coordinate-space expression for the hadronic vacuum polarisation, the Adler function and the leading hadronic contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon. The representation offers a lot of flexibility for an implementation in lattice QCD. We expect it to be particularly helpful for the quark-line disconnected contributions.
Revisiting spin-dependent forces mediated by new bosons : potentials in the coordinate-space representation for macroscopic- and atomic-scale experim…
2019
The exchange of spin-0 or spin-1 bosons between fermions or spin-polarised macroscopic objects gives rise to various spin-dependent potentials. We derive the coordinate-space non-relativistic potentials induced by the exchange of such bosons, including contact terms that can play an important role in atomic-scale phenomena, and correct for errors and omissions in the literature. We summarise the properties of the potentials and their relevance for various types of experiments. These potentials underpin the interpretation of experiments that search for new bosons, including spectroscopy, torsion-pendulum measurements, magnetometry, parity nonconservation and electric dipole moment experiment…
Variational Cluster Methods in Coordinate Space for Small Systems: Center of Mass Corrections Made Easy
1991
A reexamination of the center of mass problem for light systems in the context of coupled cluster theory has produced a new variational version of the method which is developed entirely in coordinate space. It involves independent cluster functions which depend only on the relative coordinates of the subclusters of the system. In applications to the 4He nucleus described via a number of phenomenological and quasirealistic microscopic Wigner potentials, the method is shown to be quantitatively rather accurate, producing in all cases almost exact results for the ground-state energies at the SUB(3) level of approximation.
Solving the Balitsky-Kovchegov equation at next to leading order accuracy
2016
We solve the Balitsky-Kovchegov small-x evolution equation in coordinate space. We find that the solution to the equation is unstable when using an initial condition relevant for phenomenological applications at leading order. The problematic behavior is shown to be due to a large double logarithmic contribution. The same problem is found when the evolution of the “conformal dipole” is solved, even though the double logarithmic term is then absent from the evolution equation.
