Fermion Masses and Flavor Mixings from Family Symmetry SU(3)
We suggest a new particle model based on the symmetry group $SU(3)_{C}\otimes SU(2)_{L}\otimes SU(2)_{L'}\otimes SU(2)_{R}\otimes U(1)_{B-L}\otimes SU(3)_{F}\otimes U(1)_{N}$. The family symmetry and the high-energy left-handed and right-handed isospin subgroups are respectively broken by some flavon and Higgs fields one after another. At the low-energy scale the super-heavy fermions are all integrated out, the model finally leads to an effective theory with the standard model symmetry group. After the electroweak breaking all the fermion mass matrices are elegantly characterized only by six parameters. The model can perfectly fit and explain all the current experimental data about the fermion masses and flavor mixings, in particular, it finely predicts the first generation quark masses and the values of $\theta^{l}_{13}, \langle m_{\beta\beta}\rangle, J_{CP}^{l}$ in neutrino physics. The results are all promising to be tested in future experiments.

title: Scalar form-factor of the proton with light-cone QCD sum rules
abstract: We calculate the scalar form factor of the proton in the framework of the light-cone QCD sum rules approach with the three valence quark light-cone distribution amplitudes up to twist-6 and observe the scalar form factor {sigma}(t=-Q{sup 2}) at intermediate and large momentum transfers Q{sup 2}>2 GeV{sup 2} has significant contributions from the end point (or soft) terms. The numerical values for the {sigma}(t=-Q{sup 2}) are compatible with the calculations from the chiral quark model and lattice QCD at the region Q{sup 2}>2 GeV{sup 2}.

title: Magnetic moment of the pentaquark Θ+(1540) as diquark-diquark-antiquark state with QCD sum rules
abstract: In this article, we study the magnetic moment of the pentaquark state Θ+(1540) as a diquark-diquark-antiquark ($[ud][ud]\bar{s}$) state with the QCD sum rules in an external weak electromagnetic field (EFSR) and the light-cone QCD sum rules (LCSR) respectively. The numerical results indicate that the magnetic moment is about $\mu_{\Theta^ + } = -(0.11\pm 0.02)\mu_N$ for the EFSR and $\mu_{\Theta^ + }\approx-(0.1$-$0.5)\mu_N$ for the LCSR. As the values obtained from the EFSR are more stable than the corresponding ones from the LCSR, $\mu_{\Theta^ + } = -(0.11\pm 0.02)\mu_N$ is more reliable.

title: The new extended left–right symmetric grand unified model with SO(3) family symmetry
abstract: We suggest a new left–right symmetric grand unified model by extending Pati–Salam group to contain an isospin SU ( 2 ) and a flavor SO ( 3 ) subgroup, where the superheavy fermions are introduced as a mirror to the low-energy standard model fermions. The model undergoes three steps to break to the SM by means of the specified Higgs multiplets. The model few parameters can elegantly accommodate whole mass spectra for all the particles at the electroweak scale, especially, two different flavor mixing for the quark and lepton sectors are reproduced in agreement with the current experimental data very well. The strong CP violation is excellently explained. The matter–antimatter asymmetry in the universe is successfully implemented through the B − L violating decays of the superheavy gauge bosons. The model also predicts that the lightest right-handed Majorana neutrino, whose mass is about several hundred GeVs and energy is about 10 16 GeV, is possibly a candidate for the dark matter.

title: A Model of Fermion Masses and Flavor Mixings with Family Symmetry $SU(3)\otimes U(1)$
abstract: The family symmetry SU(3)⊗U(1) is proposed to solve flavor problems about fermion masses and flavor mixings. It’s breaking is implemented by some flavon fields at the high-energy scale. In addition a discrete group Z2 is introduced to generate tiny neutrino masses, which is broken by a real singlet scalar field at the middle-energy scale. The low-energy effective theory is elegantly obtained after all of super-heavy fermions are integrated out and decoupling. All the fermion mass matrices are regularly characterized by four fundamental matrices and thirteen parameters. The model can perfectly fit and account for all the current experimental data about the fermion masses and flavor mixings, in particular, it finely predicts the first generation quark masses and the values of θ l 13 and J l CP in neutrino physics. All of the results are promising to be tested in the future experiments.

title: Axial form-factor and induced pseudoscalar form-factor of the nucleons
abstract: We calculate the axial and the induced pseudoscalar form-factors GA(t=-Q2) and GP(t=-Q2) of the nucleons in the framework of the light-cone QCD sum-rules approach up to twist-6 three valence quark light-cone distribution amplitudes, and observe that the form-factors GA(t=-Q2) and GP(t=-Q2) at intermediate and large momentum transfers with Q2>2 GeV2 have significant contributions from the end-point (soft) terms. The numerical values for the axial form-factor GA(t=-Q2) are compatible with the experimental data and theoretical calculations; for example, the chiral quark models and lattice QCD. The numerical values for the induced pseudoscalar form-factor GP(t=-Q2) are compatible with the calculation from the Bethe–Salpeter equation.

title: Determinant representation of correlation functions for the Uq(gl(1∣1)) free Fermion model
abstract: With the help of the factorizing F-matrix, the scalar products of the Uq(gl(1∣1)) free fermion model are represented by determinants. By means of these results, we obtain the determinant representations of correlation functions of the model.

title: Drinfeld twists of the open XXZ chain with non-diagonal boundary terms
abstract: The Drinfeld twists or factorizing F-matrices for the open XXZ spin chain with non-diagonal boundary terms are constructed. It is shown that in the F-basis the two sets of pseudo-particle creation operators simultaneously take completely symmetric and polarization free form. The explicit and completely symmetric expressions of the two sets of Bethe states of the model are obtained.

title: Exact solution of the Izergin-Korepin model with general non-diagonal boundary terms
abstract: A bstractThe Izergin-Korepin model with general non-diagonal boundary terms, a typical integrable model beyond A-type and without U(1)-symmetry, is studied via the offdiagonal Bethe ansatz method. Based on some intrinsic properties of the R-matrix and the K-matrices, certain operator product identities of the transfer matrix are obtained at some special points of the spectral parameter. These identities and the asymptotic behaviors of the transfer matrix together allow us to construct the inhomogeneous T − Q relation and the associated Bethe ansatz equations. In the diagonal boundary limit, the reduced results coincide exactly with those obtained via other methods.

title: Inner structure of Spinc(4) gauge potential on 4-dimensional manifolds
abstract: The decomposition of Spinc(4) gauge potential in terms of the Dirac 4-spinor is investigated, where an important characterizing equation ΔAμ=-λAμ has been discovered. Here, λ is the vacuum expectation value of the spinor field, λ=Φ2, and Aμ the twisting U(1) potential. It is found that when λ takes constant values, the characterizing equation becomes an eigenvalue problem of the Laplacian operator. It provides a revenue to determine the modulus of the spinor field by using the Laplacian spectral theory. The above study could be useful in determining the spinor field and twisting potential in the Seiberg–Witten equations. Moreover, topological characteristic numbers of instantons in the self-dual sub-space are also discussed.

title: Q-operator and T–Q relation from the fusion hierarchy
abstract: We propose that the Baxter Q-operator for the spin-1/2 XXZ quantum spin chain is given by the j -> infinity limit of the transfer matrix with spin-j (i.e., (2j + 1)-dimensional) auxiliary space. Applying this observation to the open chain with general (non-diagonal) integrable boundary terms, we obtain from the fusion hierarchy the T-Q relation for generic values (i.e., not roots of unity) of the bulk anisotropy parameter. We use this relation to determine the Bethe ansatz solution of the eigenvalues of the fundamental transfer matrix. This approach is complementary to the one used recently to solve the same model for the roots of unity case.
