I give explicit fromulae for full propagators of vector and scalar fields in a generic spin-1 gauge model quantized in an arbitrary linear covariant gauge. The propagators, expressed in terms of all-order one-particle-irreducible correlation functions, have a remarkably simple form because of constraints originating from Slavnov-Taylor identities of Becchi-Rouet-Stora symmetry. I also determine the behavior of the propagators in the neighborhood of the poles, and give a simple prescription for the coefficients that generalize (to the case with an arbitrary vector-scalar mixing) the standard $sqrt{mathcal{Z}}$ factors of Lehmann, Symanzik and Zimmermann. So obtained generalized $sqrt{mathcal{Z}}$ factors, are indispensable to the correct extraction of physical amplitudes from the amputated correlation functions in the presence of mixing. The standard $R_xi$ guauges form a particularly important subclass of gauges considered in this paper. While the tree-level vector-scalar mixing is, by construction, absent in $R_xi$ gauges, it unavoidably reappears at higher orders. Therefore the prescription for the generalized $sqrt{mathcal{Z}}$ factors given in this paper is directly relevant for the extraction of amplitudes in $R_xi$ gauges.

Gauge-Higgs unification is the fascinating scenario solving the hierarchy problem without supersymmetry. In this scenario, the Standard Model (SM) Higgs doublet is identified with extra component of the gauge field in higher dimensions and its mass becomes finite and stable under quantum corrections due to the higher dimensional gauge symmetry. On the other hand, Yukawa coupling is provided by the gauge coupling, which seems to mean that the flavor mixing and CP violation do not arise at it stands. In this talk, we discuss that the flavor mixing is originated from simultaneously non-diagonalizable bulk and brane mass matrices. Then, this mechanism is applied to various flavor changing neutral current (FCNC) processes via Kaluza-Klein (KK) gauge boson exchange at tree level and constraints for compactification scale are obtained.
We study a gauge/gravity model for the thermodynamics of a gauge theory with one running coupling. The gravity side contains an ansatz for the metric and a scalar field, on the field theory side one starts by giving an ansatz for the beta function describing the scale dependence of the coupling. The model is based on relating the scale to the extra dimensional coordinate and the beta function to the gravity fields, thereby also determining the scalar field potential. We study three different forms of beta functions of increasing complexity and give semianalytic solutions describing first order or continuous transitions.
We demonstrate that amplitudes describing scattering of longitudinally polarized massive vector bosons present in non-Abelian Lee-Wick gauge theory do not grow with energy and, hence, satisfy the constraints imposed by perturbative unitarity. This result contrasts with the widely-known violation of perturbative unitarity in the standard model with a very heavy Higgs. Our conclusions are valid to all orders of perturbation theory and depend on the existence of a formulation of the theory in which all operators are of dimension four or less. This can be thought of as a restriction on the kinds of higher dimension operator which can be included in the higher derivative formulation of the theory.
It is well established that the $SU(P)_L$ gauge symmetry for $Pgeq 3$ can address the question of fermion generation number due to the anomaly cancellation, but it neither commutes nor closes algebraically with electric and baryon-minus-lepton charges. Hence, two $U(1)$ factors that determine such charges are required, yielding a complete gauge symmetry, $SU(P)_Lotimes U(1)_Xotimes U(1)_N$, apart from the color group. The resulting theory manifestly provides neutrino mass, dark matter, inflation, and baryon asymmetry of the universe. Furthermore, this gauge structure may present kinetic mixing effects associated to the $U(1)$ gauge fields, which affect the electroweak precision test such as the $rho$ parameter and $Z$ couplings as well as the new physics processes. We will construct the model, examine the interplay between the kinetic mixing and those due to the symmetry breaking, and obtain the physical results in detail.
The propagator of a gauge boson, like the massless photon or the massive vector bosons $W^pm$ and $Z$ of the electroweak theory, can be derived in two different ways, namely via Greens functions (semi-classical approach) or via the vacuum expectation value of the time-ordered product of the field operators (field theoretical approach). Comparing the semi-classical with the field theoretical approach, the central tensorial object can be defined as the gauge boson projector, directly related to the completeness relation for the complete set of polarisation four-vectors. In this paper we explain the relation for this projector to different cases of the $R_xi$ gauge and explain why the unitary gauge is the default gauge for massive gauge bosons.
