Retrieving the missed particle-antiparticle degrees of freedom of Dirac particles
The missed particle-antiparticle degrees of freedom are retrieved and the corresponding particle-antiparticle intrinsic space are introduced to study the dynamical symmetry of the Dirac particle. As a result, the particle-antiparticle quantum number appears naturally and the Dirac particle has five quantum numbers instead of four. An anti-symmetry (different from the conventional symmetry) of the Dirac Hamiltonian and a dual symmetry of its eigenfunctions are explored. The $\hat{\kappa}$ operator of the Dirac equation in central potentials is found to be the analog of the helicity operator of the free particle--the alignment of the spin along the angular momentum.

DEFORMED RELATIVISTIC HARTREE-BOGOLIUBOV MODEL FOR EXOTIC NUCLEI
A deformed relativistic Hartree-Bogoliubov (DRHB) model is developed aiming at a proper description of exotic nuclei, particularly deformed ones with large spatial extension. In order to give an adequate description of both the contribution of the continuum and the large spatial distribution in exotic nuclei, the DRHB equations are solved in a Woods-Saxon basis in which the radial wave functions have proper asymptotic behaviors at large distance from the nuclear center which is crucial for the formation of halo. The formalism and the numerical procedure of the DRHB model in a Woods-Saxon basis are briefly presented.

Systematic investigation of the rotational bands in nuclei with Z approximate to 100 using a particle-number conserving method based on a cranked shell model
The rotational bands in nuclei with Z approximate to 100 are investigated systematically by using a cranked shell model (CSM) with the pairing correlations treated by a particle-number conserving (PNC) method, in which the blocking effects are taken into account exactly. By fitting the experimental single-particle spectra in these nuclei, a new set of Nilsson parameters (kappa and mu) and deformation parameters (epsilon(2) and epsilon(4)) are proposed. The experimental kinematic moments of inertia for the rotational bands in even-even, odd-A, and odd-odd nuclei, and the band-head energies of the one-quasiparticle bands in odd-A nuclei, are reproduced quite well by the PNC-CSM calculations. By analyzing the omega dependence of the occupation probability of each cranked Nilsson orbital near the Fermi surface and the contributions of valence orbitals in each major shell to the angular momentum alignment, the upbending mechanism in this region is understood clearly.

Relativistic continuum Hartree Bogoliubov theory for ground-state properties of exotic nuclei
The Relativistic Continuum Hartree-Bogoliubov (RCHB) theory, which properly takes into account the pairing correlation and the coupling to (discretized) continuum via Bogoliubov transformation in a microscopic and self-consistent way, has been reviewed together with its new interpretation of the halo phenomena observed in light nuclei as the scattering of particle pairs into the continuum, the prediction of the exotic phenomena - giant halos in nuclei near neutron drip line, the reproduction of interaction cross sections and charge-changing cross sections in light exotic nuclei in combination with the Glauber theory, better restoration of pseudo-spin symmetry in exotic nuclei, predictions of exotic phenomena in hypernuclei, and new magic numbers in superheavy nuclei, etc. Recent investigations on new effective interactions, the density dependence of the interaction strengths, the RMF theory on the Woods-Saxon basis, the single-particle resonant states, and the resonant BCS (rBCS) method for the pairing correlation, etc. are also presented in some detail.

Pseudospin symmetry and its approximation in real nuclei
The origin of pseudospin symmetry and its broken in real nuclei are discussed in the relativistic mean field theory. In the exact pseudospin symmetry, even the usual intruder orbits have degenerate partners. In real nuclei, pseudospin symmetry is approximate, and the partners of the usual intruder orbits will disappear. The difference is mainly due to the pseudo spin-orbit potential and the transition between them is discussed in details. The contribution of pseudospin-orbit potential for intruder orbits is quite large, compared with that for pseudospin doublets. The disappearance of the pseudospin partner for the intruder orbit can be understood from the properties of its wave function.

Theoretical study of the two-proton halo candidate 17Ne including contributions from resonant continuum and pairing correlations
Abstract.With the relativistic Coulomb wave function boundary condition, the energies, widths and wave functions of the single-proton resonant orbitals for 17Ne are studied by the analytical continuation in the coupling constant (ACCC) approach within the framework of the relativistic mean field (RMF) theory. Pairing correlations and contributions from the single-particle resonant orbitals in the continuum are taken into consideration by the resonant Bardeen-Cooper-Schrieffer (BCS) approach, in which the constant pairing strength is used. It can be seen that the fully self-consistent calculations with NL3 and NLSH effective interactions mostly agree with the latest experimental measurements, such as binding energies, matter radii, charge radii and densities. The energy of the $ \pi2s_{1/2}$ orbital is slightly higher than that of the $ \pi1d_{5/2}$ orbital, and the occupation probability of the $ (\pi2s_{1/2})^2$ orbital is about 20%, which is in accordance with the shell model calculation and three-body model estimation.

Texture Zeros for Dirac Neutrinos and Current Experimental Tests
The Daya Bay and RENO reactor neutrino experiments have revealed that the smallest neutrino mixing angle is in fact relatively large, i.e. θ13 ≈9°. Motivated by this exciting progress, we perform a systematic study of the neutrino mass matrix Mν with one or two texture zeros, in the assumption that neutrinos are Dirac particles. Among 15 possible patterns with two texture zeros, only three turn out to be favored by current neutrino oscillation data at the 3σ level. Although all the six patterns with one texture zero are compatible with the experimental data at the 3σ level, the parameter space of each pattern is strictly constrained. Phenomenological implications of Mν on the leptonic CP violation and neutrino mass spectrum are explored, and the stability of texture zeros against the radiative corrections is also discussed.

The Minimal Type-II Seesaw Model and Flavor-dependent Leptogenesis
In this talk, we first give a brief review of the so-called minimal seesaw models and then concentrate on the minimal type-I seesaw model with two almost degenerate right-handed Majorana neutrinos of $\mathcal{O}(1 \,{\rm TeV})$. A specific texture of the neutrino Yukawa coupling matrix is proposed to achieve the nearly tri-bimaximal neutrino mixing pattern. This ansatz predicts (1) θ23 = π/4, |δ| = π/2 and sin2θ12 = (1 − 2tan2θ13)/3 in the m1 = 0 case; and (2) θ23 = π/4 and θ13 = 8 = 0 in the m3 = 0 case. In both cases, the cosmological baryon number asymmetry can be explained via the resonant leptogenesis mechanism. Finally, we demonstrate the significance of flavor-dependent effects in our leptogenesis scenario.

A new regularization of loop integral, no divergence, no hierarchy problem
We find a new regularization scheme which is motivated by the Bose-Einstein condensation. The energy of the virtual particle is considered as discrete. Summing them and regulating the summation by the Riemann $\zeta$ function can give the result of loop integral. All the divergences vanish, we can get almost the same results as Dimensional Regularization. The prediction beyond Dimensional Regularization is also shown in the QED. The hierarchy problem of the radiative correction of scalar mass completely vanish.

Goldstone's Theorem and Hamiltonian of Multi-galileon Modified Gravity
The Galileon model was recently proposed to locally describe a class of modified gravity theories, including the braneworld Dvali-Gabadadze-Porrati model. We discuss spontaneous symmetry breaking of the self-accelerating branch in a multi-Galileon theory with internal global symmetries. We show that a modified version of Goldstone's theorem is applicable to the symmetry breaking pattern and discuss its implications. We also derive the Hamiltonian of a general multi-Galileon theory and discuss its implications.

Gravitational waves from oscillon preheating
A bstractOscillons are long-lived, localized excitations of nonlinear scalar fields which may be copiously produced during preheating after inflation, leading to a possible oscillon dominated phase in the early Universe. For example, this can happen after axion monodromy inflation, on which we run our simulations. We investigate the stochastic gravitational wave background associated with an oscillon-dominated phase. An isolated oscillon is spherically symmetric and does not radiate gravitational waves, and we show that the flux of gravitational radiation generated between oscillons is also small. However, a significant stochastic gravitational wave background may be generated during preheating itself (i.e, when oscillons are forming), and in this case the characteristic size of the oscillons is imprinted on the gravitational wave power spectrum, which has multiple, distinct peaks.
