This is a seminar by Topology and Geometry of Manifolds Unit, occasionally on Thursday. It will be followed by tea after the semiar at the unit space.

Abstract: Topological gravity, defined on Riemann surface or Teichmuller space with handles and holes, has recently interesting developments. The intersection numbers on the moduli space for p-spin curve are evaluated with handles and holes. Some problems of a super Riemann surface are discussed.

Join Dr. Simone Pigolotti, Associate Professor, OIST for a very informal and interactive talk about "Five rules of thumb for a successful scientific career".

Everyone is welcome!

Speaker: Dr. Yutaro Shoji from Nagoya University Abstract: The electroweak vacuum is not absolutely stable in the standard model and various models beyond the standard model. This is due to an appearance of another deeper vacuum, into which the electroweak vacuum can decay. The decay proceeds through quantum tunneling and the rate is expressed with an exponential suppression factor and a pre-factor. The suppression factor has been calculated in many papers, but a naive dimensional analysis has been usually adopted for the pre-factor.

We have pointed out that such an evaluation can suffer from large quantum corrections and it is important to calculate the pre-factor as well.

To calculate the pre-factor, we had problems in a gauge sector; its gauge invariance is not explicitly shown, and there appear zero modes, which we could not deal with.

We have solved these problems and made it possible to determine vacuum decay rates precisely.

As applications, we analyzed the decay rates in the standard model and its fermionic extensions. We also provide a public code, which can be used for models that exhibit classical scale invariance at a high energy scale.
