Extremal effective field theories [PDF]
Effective field theories (EFT) parameterize the long-distance effects of short-distance dynamics whose details may or may not be known. Previous work showed that EFT coefficients must obey certain positivity constraints if causality and unitarity are ...

Effective Field Theories [PDF]
This paper represents a pedagogical introduction to low-energy effective field theories. In some of them, heavy particles are “integrated out” (a typical example—the Heisenberg–Euler EFT); in some, heavy particles remain but some of their degrees of ...

Effective Field Theories [PDF]
These lectures introduce some of the basic notions of effective field theories, as used in particle physics. The topics discussed are the $ S=1$ and $ S =2$ weak interactions, and chiral perturbation theory as applied to mesons, baryons, and hadrons containing heavy quarks.

Entanglement and effective field theories
We investigate the emergence of geometric phases in chiral transformations within gauge theories coupled to fermions. We begin by analyzing the Schwinger model in (1+1) dimensions, where chiral symmetry is explicitly modified due to the dynamical ...

Dilaton Effective Field Theory [PDF]
We review and extend recent studies of dilaton effective field theory (dEFT) that provide a framework for the description of the Higgs boson as a composite structure. We first describe the dEFT as applied to lattice data for a class of gauge theories with near-conformal infrared behavior.

Constructing operator basis in supersymmetry: a Hilbert series approach
In this paper we introduce a Hilbert series approach to build the operator basis for a N = 1 supersymmetry theory with chiral superfields. We give explicitly the form of the corrections that remove redundancies due to the equations of motion and ...

Effective field theory for leptoquarks
Abstract Leptoquarks enter in several extensions of the Standard Model as possible solutions to a number of observed anomalies. We work within the soft-collinear effective theory framework to present a detailed analysis of the decay rates of the three leptoquarks that appear the most in literature, the scalars S1 and S3 and the ...

Holographic effective field theories [PDF]
We derive the four-dimensional low-energy effective field theory governing the moduli space of strongly coupled superconformal quiver gauge theories associated with D3-branes at Calabi-Yau conical singularities in the holographic regime of validity. We use the dual supergravity description provided by warped resolved conical geometries with mobile D3 ...

Causal effective field theories
Physical principles such as unitarity, causality, and locality can constrain the space of consistent effective field theories (EFTs) by imposing two-sided bounds on the allowed values of Wilson coefficients. In this paper, we consider the bounds that arise from the requirement of low-energy causality alone, without appealing to any assumptions about UV
