In this talk I will explain how to compute three-point functions of N=4 SYM theory in the planar limit for tree level and one-loop in perturbation theory. First I will recall how to formulate the problem of computing the three-point function of operators with determined R-charges in the language of integrable spin chains. In the su(2) sector, the tree-level three point function can be obtained in terms of determinants, whose large R-charge limit can be taken explicitly. Then I will report a systematic method to compute the su(2) three point function at higher loops. In particular, we are able to take the semi-classical limit, and we can compare our result with the calculation from string theory. In the Frolov-Tseytlin limit we find a perfect match at one-loop. Finally I will present a new formalism of computing three-point functions called the spin vertex formalism, which is the weak coupling counter-part of the string vertex in the string field theory. I will describe how to construct the spin vertex and discuss its important properties.

I will review applications of the muon as a probe for new phenomena. Topics to be discussed include the free muon decay and the determination of the Fermi constant; the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon; and searches for lepton flavor violation such as mu->e+gamma, mu->3e, and the muon-electron conversion, with special emphasis on the modification of the muon decay by the atomic binding.
Schroedinger method as field theoretical model to describe structure formation

We investigate large-scale structure formation of collisionless dark matter in the phase space description based on the Vlasov equation whose nonlinearity is induced solely by gravitational interaction according to the Poisson equation. Determining the time-evolution of density and velocity demands solving the full Vlasov hierarchy for the cumulants of the distribution function. In the presence of long-range interaction no consistent truncation is known apart from the dust model which is incapable of describing the formation of bound structures due to the inability to generate higher cumulants like velocity dispersion. Our goal is to find a simple ansatz for the phase space distribution function that approximates the full Vlasov distribution function and can serve as theoretical N-body double to replace the dust model. We present the Schroedinger method which is based on the coarse-grained Wigner probability distribution obtained from a wave function fulfilling the Schroedinger-Poisson equation as sought-after model. We show that its evolution equation approximates the Vlasov equation in a controlled way, cures the shell-crossing singularities of the dust model and is able to describe multi-streaming which is crucial for halo formation. This feature has already been employed in cosmological simulations of large-scale structure formation by Widrow & Kaiser (1993). We explain how the coarse-grained Wigner ansatz allows to calculate higher cumulants like velocity dispersion analytically from density and velocity in a self-consistent manner. On this basis we show that instead of solving the Vlasov-Poisson system one can use the Schrödinger method and solve the Schrödinger-Poission equation to directly determine density and velocity and all higher cumulants. As a first application we study the coarse-grained dust model, which is a limiting case of the Schrödinger method, within Eulerian and Lagrangian perturbation theory.
