If high energy heavy ion collisions lead to the formation of a hot quark-gluon plasma, then colour screening prevents cc binding in the deconfined interior of the interaction region. To study this ...

We formulate the geometric quantization of Teichmüller space by using its relation with SL (2, R ) Chern-Simons gauge theory and show that the physical state conditions arising in this formalism are ...

We find the differential equation satisfied by the exact specific heat for a series of models of matter coupled to 2D gravity, indexed by positive integers p and q , and present evidence that they are ...

(Translated from the Russian abstract of the first edition): For the first time in the world literature, the theory of vacuum quantum effects in external electromagnetic and gravitational fields is ...

The problem of selecting one of a number of models of different dimensions is treated by finding its Bayes solution, and evaluating the leading terms of its asymptotic expansion. These terms are a ...
