Abstract We estimate the form factors that parametrise the hadronic matrix elements of proton-to-pion transitions with the help of light-cone sum rules. These form factors are relevant for semi-leptonic proton decay channels induced by baryon-number violating dimension-six operators, as typically studied in the context of grand unified theories. We calculate the form factors in a kinematical regime where the momentum transfer from the proton to the pion is space-like and extrapolate our final results to the regime that is relevant for proton decay. In this way, we obtain estimates for the form factors that show agreement with the state-of-the-art calculations in lattice QCD, if systematic uncertainties are taken into account. Our work is a first step towards calculating more involved proton decay channels where lattice QCD results are not available at present.

In this paper a set of canonical collective variables is defined for a classical Klein–Gordon field and the problem of the definition of a set of canonical relative variables is discussed. This last point is approached by means of a harmonic analysis in momentum space. This analysis shows that the relative variables can be defined if certain conditions are fulfilled by the field configurations. These conditions are expressed by the vanishing of a set of conserved quantities, referred to as supertranslations since as canonical observables they generate a set of canonical transformations whose algebra is the same as that which arises in the study of the asymptotic behavior of the metric of an isolated system in General Relativity.9

Abstract We present results for one-loop corrections to the recently introduced “gluon condensate” PDF F(x). In particular, we give expression for the gg-part of its evolution kernel. To enforce strict compliance with the gauge invariance requirements, we have used on-shell states for external gluons, and have obtained identical results both in Feynman and light-cone gauges. No “zero mode” δ(x) terms were found for the twist-4 gluon PDF F(x). However a q2δ(x) term was found for the ξ = 0 GPD F(x, q2) at nonzero momentum transfer q. Overall, our results do not agree with the original attempt of one-loop calculations of F(x) for gluon states, which sets alarm warning for calculations that use matrix elements with virtual external gluons and for lattice renormalization procedures based on their results.

It is argued that the asymptotic behavior of the matrix elements of Hw involving on-mass-shell ground-state mesons with infinite momenta, which were instrumental in explaining the |ΔI|=1/2 rule in the K→ππ decays, actually implies [Formula: see text]. The long distance effects (contributions of PS and vector meson poles and ππ intermediate states) may reproduce the observed KL−Ks mass difference, consistent with the |ΔI|=1/2 rule. Its estimate is however sensitive to the η-η′-… mixing.

Abstract We consider Lorentzian CFT Wightman functions in momentum space. In particular, we derive a set of reference formulas for computing two- and three-point functions, restricting our attention to three-point functions where the middle operator (corresponding to a Hamiltonian density) carries zero spatial momentum, but otherwise allowing operators to have arbitrary spin. A direct application of our formulas is the computation of Hamiltonian matrix elements within the framework of conformal truncation, a recently proposed method for numerically studying strongly-coupled QFTs in real time and infinite volume. Our momentum space formulas take the form of finite sums over 2F1 hypergeometric functions, allowing for efficient numerical evaluation. As a concrete application, we work out matrix elements for 3d ϕ4-theory, thus providing the seed ingredients for future truncation studies.
