Boson-Fermion Duality in A2 Toda Field Theory
In this paper, we consider a two-dimensional integrable and conformal invariant field theory with two Dirac spinors and two scalar fields. This model has chiral symmetry and CP-like symmetry. Moreover, this model also has a Neother current depending only on the matter field. At last, we bosonize the spinor fields.

Ambiguities of the Seiberg-Witten map in the presence of matter field
The ambiguities of the Seiberg-Witten map for gauge field coupled with fermionic matter are discussed. We find that only part of the ambiguities can be absorbed by gauge transformation and/or field redefinition and thus are negligible. The existence of matter field makes some other part of the ambiguities difficult to be absorbed by gauge transformation or field redefinition.

Elasticity through Nanoscale Distortions in Periodic Surfactant-Templated Porous Silica under High Pressure
High-pressure infrared absorption spectroscopy is used to examine changes in local bonding upon hydrostatic compression in both ordered surfactant-templated mesoporous silica and sintered sol-gel silica with a goal of connecting atomic scale structural changes with variations in nanoscale periodicity. High-pressure IR absorption spectra are analyzed on the basis of a noncentral force model. It is found that the intertetrahedral bond angle and its distribution width in both the dense and the mesoporous silica decrease at elevated pressure up to 4 GPa. With increasing pressure above this value, decreases in the average bond angle and distribution width cease in the mesoporous silica, while they continue in the bulk material. The results suggest that in the mesoporous silica the nanometer length scale of the silica framework makes it energetically unfavorable to form high-density atomic scale structures at higher pressures ( >4 GPa). Instead, further compression of the mesoporous silica takes place by distortion of the periodic pore structures on the nanometer scale (deformation of pores). Surprisingly, upon the release of pressure, structural changes on both the nanometer and atomic length scales are reversible. The results suggest that reversible nanometer scale distortions in periodic porous materials can replace the irreversible atomic scale distortions observed in bulk amorphous silica.

Hidden symmetries for thermodynamics and emergence of relativity
Erik Verlinde recently proposed an idea about the thermodynamic origin of gravity. Though this is a beautiful idea which may resolve many long standing problems in the theories of gravity, it also raises many other problems. In this article I will comment on some of the problems of Verlinde’s proposal with special emphasis on the thermodynamical origin of the principle of relativity. It is found that there is a large group of hidden symmetries of thermodynamics which contains the Poincare group of the spacetime for which space is emergent. This explains the thermodynamic origin of the principle of relativity.

The origin of noncommutativity
Consistent boundary Poisson structures for open string theory coupled to background B-field are considered using the new approach proposed in hep-th/0111005. It is found that there are infinitely many consistent Poisson structures, each leads to a consistent canonical quantization of open string in the presence of background B-field. Consequently, whether the D-branes to which the open string end points are attached is noncommutative or not depends on the choice of a particular Poisson structure.

Higgsino dark matter model consistent with galactic cosmic ray data and possibility of discovery at LHC-7
A solution to the PAMELA positron excess with Higgsino dark matter within extended supergravity grand unified (SUGRA) models is proposed. The models are compliant with the photon constraints recently set by Fermi-LAT and produce positron as well as antiproton fluxes consistent with the PAMELA experiment. The SUGRA models considered have an extended hidden sector with extra degrees of freedom which allow for a satisfaction of relic density consistent with WMAP. The Higgsino models are also consistent with the CDMS-II and XENON100 data and are discoverable at LHC-7 with 1 fb{sup -1} of luminosity. The models are testable on several fronts.

Observation of $Z_c(3900)$ both by BESIII and Belle
Using $525$ pb$^{-1}$ data collected with the BESIII detector at $e^+e^-$ central-of-mass energy 4.26 GeV, the BESIII Collaboration observed a charged charmoniumlike state $Z_c(3900)\to\pi^{\pm}J/\psi$ with mass $M[Z_c(3900)]=3899.0\pm 3.6 \pm 4.9$ MeV/c$^2$, and width $\Gamma[Z_c(3900)]=46\pm 10 \pm 20$ MeV. The significance of this state was estimated to be $>8\sigma$ in all kinds of systematic tests. Using $967$ fb$^{-1}$ data recorded by the Belle detector on or near $\Upsilon(nS)$, n=1, 2, $\cdots$, 5 resonances, the $e^+e^- \to \pi^+\pi^-J/\psi$ process has been studied through initial-state-radiation (ISR) method. Except for the $Y(4260)$ resonance, an intermediate state $Z(3900)^{\pm}$ has been observed in the $\pi^{\pm}J/\psi$ mass spectrum, with significance $>5.2\sigma$. The measured mass $M[Z(3900)^{\pm}]=3894.5\pm6.6\pm4.5$ MeV/c$^2$ and width $\Gamma[Z(3900)^{\pm}]=63\pm24\pm26$ MeV, shows good agreement with the BESIII measurement within errors, which means $Z_c(3900)$ and $Z(3900)^{\pm}$ is the same state.

Study of kaon decay to two pions
The weak decay of the kaon to two pions is studied within the model of Nambu and Jona-Lasinio. Using the standard effectiveweak Hamiltonian, both the decay amplitude arising from an intermediate state σ meson and the direct decay amplitude are calculated. The effect of final state interactions is also included. When the matching scale is chosen such that the decay amplitude with isospin I ¼ 2 is close to its experimental value, our model including the σ meson contributes up to 80% of the total I ¼ 0 amplitude. This supports recent suggestions that the σ meson should play a vital role in explaining the ΔI ¼ 1=2 rule in this system.

The $\bar B \bar B$ strong interaction with chiral perturbation theory
We study the strong interaction potentials of up to order with the heavy meson chiral perturbation theory. Besides the leading contributions from the contact terms we also consider the one-loop corrections to the contact diagrams and the contributions from the 2ϕ-exchange diagrams. Hopefully, the analytical structures of our result will be helpful in the extrapolation of the relevant heavy meson interaction in the lattice QCD simulation.

Form factors for rare B decays: strategy, methodology, and numerical study
llare presentlyaround 10 percent [1]. So far, measurements are consistent with Standard Model expectations[2, 3]. Future experiments like LHCb are going to reduce the experimental uncertainties further.Thus, we are entering an era of precision ﬂavour physics, req uiring experimentalists and theoriststo focus on reducing statistical errors and employing multiple cross-checks to further quantifysystematic uncertainties.Lattice QCD can contribute to this by providing ﬁrst-principles nonperturbative calculationsof hadronic matrix elements relevant for rare B decays. In this report, we present our currentprogress in doing these computations. We use a non-relativistic effective action for the b quarkcalled moving NRQCD (mNRQCD) [4], which helps reduce discretisation errors in the ﬁnal statemeson at large recoil. This is achieved by giving the B meson a signiﬁcant velocity in the latticeframe, so that at a given q
