 Chaotic inflation with four-form couplings / Lee, Hyun Min (Chung-Ang U.) We consider chaotic inflation models with a pseudo-scalar field containing the general couplings to the four-form flux. The four-form mixing with the pseudo-scalar field induces a quadratic potential for inflaton while the coexisting four-form mixing with graviton generates a non-minimal gravity coupling for inflaton.

 Relaxation of Higgs mass and cosmological constant with four-form fluxes and reheating / Lee, Hyun Min (Chung-Ang U.) We consider the most general effective action for the four-form fluxes in the Standard Model coupled to gravity. The Higgs mass parameter can be relaxed to a correct value due to the four-form coupling to the Higgs field and it stops changing due to an extremely suppressed transition probability from the observed cosmological constant to AdS space.

 Three-loop contributions to the $\rho$ parameter and iterated integrals of modular forms / Abreu, Samuel (Louvain U., CP3) ; Becchetti, Matteo (Louvain U., CP3) ; Duhr, Claude (CERN) ; Marzucca, Robin (Durham U., IPPP) We compute fully analytic results for the three-loop diagrams involving two different massive quark flavours contributing to the $\rho$ parameter in the Standard Model. We find that the results involve exactly the same class of functions that appears in the well-known sunrise and banana graphs, namely elliptic polylogarithms and iterated integrals of modular forms.

 Algorithms and tools for iterated Eisenstein integrals / Duhr, Claude (CERN) ; Tancredi, Lorenzo (Oxford U., Theor. Phys.) We present algorithms to work with iterated Eisenstein integrals that have recently appeared in the computation of multi-loop Feynman integrals. These algorithms allow one to analytically continue these integrals to all regions of the parameter space, and to obtain fast converging series representations in each region.

 Generalized covariant prescriptions for averaging cosmological observables / Fanizza, Giuseppe (INFN, Pisa ; U. Lisbon (main)) ; Gasperini, Maurizio (Bari U. ; INFN, Bari) ; Marozzi, Giovanni (Pisa U. ; INFN, Pisa) ; Veneziano, Gabriele (CERN ; College de France) We present two new covariant and general prescriptions for averaging scalar observables on spatial regions typical of the observed sources and intersecting the past light-cone of a given observer. One of these prescriptions is adapted to sources exactly located on a given space-like hypersurface, the other applies instead to situations where the physical location of the sources is characterized by the experimental "spread" of a given observational variable.

 Strong integrability of $\lambda$-deformed models / Georgiou, George (Athens U.) ; Sfetsos, Konstantinos (Athens U.) ; Siampos, Konstantinos (Athens U. ; CERN) We study the notion of strong integrability for classically integrable $\lambda$-deformed CFTs and coset CFTs. To achieve this goal we employ the Poisson brackets of the spatial Lax matrix which we prove that it assumes the Maillet $r/s$-matrix algebra.

 Light quark masses in N_f = 2+1 lattice QCD with Wilson fermions / Bruno, Mattia (CERN) ; Campos, Isabel (Cantabria Inst. of Phys.) ; Fritzsch, Patrick (CERN) ; Koponen, Jonna (KEK, Tsukuba) ; Pena, Carlos (Madrid, Autonoma U. ; Madrid, IFT) ; Preti, David (INFN, Turin) ; Ramos, Alberto (Trinity Coll., Dublin) ; Vladikas, Anastassios (INFN, Rome2) /ALPHA Collaboration We present a lattice QCD determination of light quark masses with three sea-quark flavours ($N_f = 2+1$). Bare quark masses are known from PCAC relations in the framework of CLS lattice computations with a non-perturbatively improved Wilson-Clover action and a tree-level Symanzik improved gauge action.

 Long-range electroweak amplitudes of single hadrons from Euclidean finite-volume correlation functions / Briceño, Raúl A. (Jefferson Lab ; Old Dominion U. (main)) ; Davoudi, Zohreh (Maryland U. ; Wako, RIKEN) ; Hansen, Maxwell T. (CERN) ; Schindler, Matthias R. (U. South Carolina, Columbia) ; Baroni, Alessandro (U. South Carolina, Columbia ; Los Alamos Natl. Lab., Theor. Div.) A relation is presented between single-hadron long-range matrix elements defined in a finite Euclidean spacetime, and the corresponding infinite-volume Minkowski amplitudes. This relation is valid in the kinematic region where any number of two-hadron states can simultaneously go on shell, so that the effects of strongly-coupled intermediate channels are included.

 QCD, from its inception to its stubbornly unsolved problems / De Rújula, A. (Madrid, IFT ; CERN) Whenever one has witnessed some event and then sees it reported in the media, one's reaction is the same: "it was not quite like that". It is in this spirit of a frequent first-hand witness that I write this article. [...] arXiv:1910.13891; CERN-TH-2019-188.- 2019-12-03 - 39 p. - Published in : Int. J. Mod. Phys.

 An exact symmetry in $\lambda$-deformed CFTs / Georgiou, George (Athens U.) ; Sagkrioti, Eftychia (Athens U.) ; Sfetsos, Konstantinos (Athens U.) ; Siampos, Konstantinos (Athens U. ; CERN) We consider $\lambda$-deformed current algebra CFTs at level $k$, interpolating between an exact CFT in the UV and a PCM in the IR. By employing gravitational techniques, we derive the two-loop, in the large $k$ expansion, $\beta$-function.
