We provide a formalism to calculate the cubic interaction vertices of the stable string bit model, in which string bits have $s$ spin degrees of freedom but no space to move. With the vertices, we obtain a formula for one-loop self-energy, i.e., the $mathcal{O}left(1/N^{2}right)$ correction to the energy spectrum. A rough analysis shows that, when the bit number $M$ is large, the ground state one-loop self-energy $Delta E_{G}$ scale as $M^{5-s/4}$ for even $s$ and $M^{4-s/4}$ for odd $s$. Particularly, in $s=24$, we have $Delta E_{G}sim 1/M$, which resembles the Poincare invariant relation $P^{-}sim 1/P^{+}$ in $(1+1)$ dimensions. We calculate analytically the one-loop correction for the ground energies with $M=3$ and $s=1,,2$. We then numerically confirm that the large $M$ behavior holds for $sleq4$ cases.

In string bit models, the superstring emerges as a very long chain of bits, in which s fermionic degrees of freedom contribute positively to the ground state energy in a way to exactly cancel the destabilizing negative contributions of d=s bosonic degrees of freedom. We propose that the physics of string formation be studied nonperturbatively in the class of string bit models in which s>d, so that a long chain is stable, in contrast to the marginally stable (s=d=8) superstring chain. We focus on the simplest of these models with s=1 and d=0, in which the string bits live in zero space dimensions. The string bit creation operators are N X N matrices. We choose a Hamiltonian such that the large N limit produces string moving in one space dimension, with excitations corresponding to one Grassmann lightcone worldsheet field (s=1) and no bosonic worldsheet field (d=0). We study this model at finite N to assess the role of the large N limit in the emergence of the spatial dimension. Our results suggest that string-like states with large bit number M may not exist for N<(M-1)/2. If this is correct, one can have finite chains of string bits, but not continuous string, at finite N. Only for extremely large N can such chains behave approximately like continuous string, in which case there will also be the (approximate) emergence of a new spatial dimension. In string bit models designed to produce critical superstring at N=infinity, we can then expect only approximate Lorentz invariance at finite N, with violations of order 1/N^2.
We compute renormalized vertices of the 125 GeV Higgs boson $h$ with the weak gauge bosons ($hVV$), fermions ($hfbar{f}$) and itself ($hhh$) in the Georgi-Machacek model at one-loop level. The renormalization is performed based on the on-shell scheme with the use of the minimal subtraction scheme only for the $hhh$ vertex. We explicitly show the gauge dependence in the counterterms of the scalar mixing parameters in the general $R_xi$ gauge, and that the dependence can be removed by using the pinch technique in physical scattering processes. We then discuss the possible allowed deviations in these one-loop corrected Higgs couplings from the standard model predictions by scanning model parameters under the constraints of perturbative unitarity and vacuum stability as well as those from experimental data.
We consider a computation of one-loop AdS_5 x S^5 superstring correction to the energy radiated by the end-point of a string which moves along a wavy line at the boundary of AdS_5 with a small transverse acceleration (the corresponding classical solution was described by Mikhailov in hep-th/0305196). We also compute the one-loop effective action for an arbitrary small transverse string fluctuation background. It is related by an analytic continuation to the Euclidean effective action describing one-loop correction to the expectation value of a wavy Wilson line. We show that both the one-loop contribution to the energy and to the Wilson line are controlled by the subleading term in the strong-coupling expansion of the function B(lambda) as suggested by Correa, Henn, Maldacena and Sever in arXiv:1202.4455.
String bit models provide a possible method to formulate a string as a discrete chain of pointlike string bits. When the bit number $M$ is large, a chain behaves as a continuous string. We study the simplest case that has only one bosonic bit and one fermionic bit. The creation and annihilation operators are adjoint representations of the $Uleft(Nright)$ color group. We show that the supersymmetry reduces the parameter number of a Hamiltonian from 7 to 3 and, at $N=infty$, ensures a continuous energy spectrum, which implies the emergence of one spatial dimension. The Hamiltonian $H_{0}$ is constructed so that in the large $N$ limit it produces a world sheet spectrum with one Grassmann world sheet field. We concentrate on numerical study of the model in finite $N$. For the Hamiltonian $H_{0}$, we find that the would-be ground energy states disappear at $N=left(M-1right)/2$ for odd $Mleq11$. Such a simple pattern is spoiled if $H$ has an additional term $xiDelta H$ which does not affect the result of $N=infty$. The disappearance point moves to higher (lower) $N$ when $xi$ increases (decreases). Particularly, the $pmleft(H_{0}-Delta Hright)$ cases suggest a possibility that the ground state could survive at large $M$ and $Mgg N$. Our study reveals that the model has stringy behavior: when $N$ is fixed and large enough, the ground energy decreases linearly with respect to $M$, and the excitation energy is roughly of order $M^{-1}$. We also verify that a stable system of Hamiltonian $pm H_{0}+xiDelta H$ requires $xigeqmp1$.
The investigation of UV divergences is a relevant step in better understanding of a new theory. In this work the one-loop divergences in the free field sector are obtained for the popular Galileons model. The calculations are performed by the generalized Schwinger-DeWitt technique and also by means of Feynman diagrams. The first method can be directly generalized to curved space, but here we deal only with the flat-space limit. We show that the UV completion of the theory includes the $pi Box^4pi$ term. According to our previous analysis in the case of quantum gravity, this means that the theory can be modified to become superrenormalizable, but then its physical spectrum includes two massive ghosts and one massive scalar with positive kinetic energy. The effective approach in this theory can be perfectly successful, exactly as in the higher derivative quantum gravity, and in this case the non-renormalization theorem for Galileons remains valid in the low-energy region.
