On sequences of expected maxima and expected ranges [PDF]
Journal of Applied Probability 54 (2017), 1144-1166, 2016 We investigate conditions in order to decide whether a given sequence of real numbers represents expected maxima or expected ranges. The main result provides a novel necessary and sufficient condition, relating an expected maxima sequence to a translation of a Bernstein function through its L\'{e}vy-Khintchine representation.

The European Physical Journal C, 2021 AbstractWe consider the application of a Fleischer–Jegerlehner-like treatment of tadpoles to the calculation of neutral scalar masses (including the Higgs) in general theories beyond the Standard Model. This is especially useful when the theory contains new scalars associated with a small expectation value, but comes with its own disadvantages. We show
