We consider quantum chromodynamics (QCD) with N c colours and N f flavours. Large N
expansions for this theory are discussed and their advantages are pointed out, especially in …

We explore the possibility that the intercepts of the nonstrange meson and baryon Regge
trajectories are simply related to quark spin. This possibility arises if one adopts a …

One of the major philosophical problems in physical sciences is what criteria should
determine how scientific theories are selected and justified in practice and whether, in …

In this and in a companion paper a “topological expansion” for high-energy hadronic
processes is proposed and discussed. In this first paper the general properties of the …

A mechanism is exhibited that monotonically depresses the cylinder component of the
topological expansion with increasing t, and it is conjectured that all non-planar S-matrix …

In a companion paper, we have defined a topological expansion for high-energy hadronic
processes, and in particular discussed its asymptotic relation with reggeon field theory from …

The nature of the Pomeron and related effects are studied within the framework of
Veneziano's topological expansion. At the second, or cylinder, level it is found that no new …

Decay modes of Ψ, Ψ′, η c are examined within a model of Okubo-Zweig-Iizuka (OZI)-rule
violation based on the S-matrix topological expansion (SMTE). The model provides an …
