Background: Spectroscopic factors, overlaps, and isospin symmetry are often used in conjunction with single-particle wave functions for the phenomenological analysis of nuclear structure and reactions. Many differing prescriptions for connecting these quantities to physically relevant asymptotic normalization constants or widths are available in the literature, but their relationship and degree of validity are not always clear. Purpose: This paper derives relationships among the above quantities of interest using well-defined methodology and starting assumptions. Method: $R$-matrix theory is used as the primary tool to interoperate between the quantities of interest to this work. Particular attention is paid to effects arising from beyond the nuclear surface, where isospin symmetry is strongly violated. Results: Relationships among the quantities of interest are derived. Example applications of these methods to mirror levels in nucleon+${}^{12}{rm C}$, nucleon+${}^{16}{rm O}$, and nucleon+${}^{26}{rm Al}$ are presented. A new approach to multi-level mirror symmetry is derived and applied to the first three $2^+$ states of ${}^{18}{rm O}$ and ${}^{18}{rm Ne}$. Conclusions: The relationship between the quantities of interest is clarified and certain procedures are recommended. It is found that the asymptotic normalization constant of the second $2^+$ state in ${}^{18}{rm Ne}$ deduced from the mirror state in ${}^{18}{rm O}$ is significantly larger than found in previous work. This finding has the effect of increasing the ${}^{17}{rm F}(p,gamma){}^{18}{rm Ne}$ reaction rate in novae.

An alternative parameterization of R-matrix theory is presented which is mathematically equivalent to the standard approach, but possesses features which simplify the fitting of experimental data. In particular there are no level shifts and no bounda ry-condition constants which allows the positions and partial widths of an arbitrary number levels to be easily fixed in an analysis. These alternative parameters can be converted to standard R-matrix parameters by a straightforward matrix diagonalization procedure. In addition it is possible to express the collision matrix directly in terms of the alternative parameters.
An exactly solvable sp(4) algebraic approach extends beyond the traditional isospin conserving nuclear interaction to bring forward effects of isospin symmetry breaking and isospin mixing resulting from a two-body nuclear interaction that includes pr oton-neutron (pn) and like-particle isovector pairing correlations plus significant isoscalar pn interactions. The model yields an estimate for the extent to which isobaric analog 0+ states in light and medium mass nuclei may mix with one another and reveals possible, but still extremely weak, non-analog beta-decay transitions.

The spectroscopic factor has long played a central role in nuclear reaction theory. However, it is not an observable. Consequently it is of minimal use as a meeting point between theory and experiment. In this paper the nature of the problem is explo red. At the many-body level, unitary transformations are constructed that vary the spectroscopic factors over the full range of allowed values. At the phenomenological level, field redefinitions play a similar role and the spectroscopic factor extracted from experiment depend more on the assumed energy dependence of the potentials than on the measured cross-sections. The consistency conditions, gauge invariance and Wegmanns theorem play a large role in these considerations.
The strong interactions among nucleons have an approximate spin-isospin exchange symmetry that arises from the properties of quantum chromodynamics in the limit of many colors, $N_c$. However this large-$N_c$ symmetry is well hidden and reveals itsel f only when averaging over intrinsic spin orientations. Furthermore, the symmetry is obscured unless the momentum resolution scale is close to an optimal scale that we call $Lambda_{{rm large-}N_c}$. We show that the large-$N_c$ derivation requires a momentum resolution scale of $Lambda_{{rm large-}N_c} sim 500$ MeV. We derive a set of spin-isospin exchange sum rules and discuss implications for the spectrum of $^{30}$P and applications to nuclear forces, nuclear structure calculations, and three-nucleon interactions.

In this study it is demonstrated that a simple picture of the QCD gluon liquid emerges in the dynamical quasiparticle model that specifies the active degrees of freedom in the time-like sector and yields a potential energy density in the space-like sector. By using the time-like gluon density (or scalar gluon density) as an independent degree of freedom - instead of the temperature $T$ as a Lagrange parameter - variations of the potential energy density lead to effective mean-fields for time-like gluons and an effective gluon-gluon interaction strength at low density. The latter yields a simple dynamical picture for the gluon fusion to color neutral glueballs when approaching the phase boundary from a temperature higher than $T_c$ and paves the way for an off-shell transport theoretical description of the parton dynamics.
