Aspects of massive gauge theories on three sphere in infinite mass limit

We study the transitions between the different color states of a static quark-antiquark pair, singlet and octet, in a thermal medium. This is done non-perturbatively exploiting the infinite mass limit of QCD. This study is interesting because it can be used for future developments within the framework of Effective Field Theories (EFTs) and because it can be combined with other techniques, like lattice QCD or AdS/CFT, to gain non-perturbative information about the evolution of quarkonium in a medium. We also study the obtained expressions in the large Nc limit. This allows us to learn lessons that are useful to simplify phenomenological models of quarkonium in a plasma.

Mass Dependent

A mass-dependent odd-parity term in the effective action of chiral gauge theories as well as the usual mass-independent chiral anomaly have been shown to exist. In particular, this mass-dependent term is equal to the anomaly with opposite sign in the limit of infinite fermion mass, and therefore no odd-parity term remains in this limit. We also consider the different regularizations which produce the Wess-Zumino term in the infinite fermion mass limit.

Quark Models

We first discuss Uraltsev's and other sum rules constraining the B → D**(L = 1) weak transitions in the infinite mass limit, and compare them with dynamical approaches in the same limit. After recalling these well established facts, we discuss how to apply infinite mass limit to the physical situation. We provide predictions concerning semileptonic decays and non-leptonic ones, based on quark models. We then present in more detail the dynamical approaches: the relativistic quark model à la Bakamjian–Thomas and lattice QCD. We summarise lattice QCD results in the infinite mass limit and compare them to the quark model predictions. We then present preliminary lattice QCD results with finite b and c quark masses. A systematic comparison between theory and experiment is performed. We show that some large discrepancies exist between different experiments. Altogether the predictions at infinite mass are in fair agreement with experiment for non-leptonic decays contrary to what happens for semileptonic decays. We conclude by considering the prospects to clarify both the experimental situation, the theoretical one and the comparison between both.
