Abstract

Under renormalization, physical operators can mix with operators which vanish by the equations of motion. Such operators cannot contribute to matrix elements between physical states, but they contribute to operator mixing in renormalization schemes which are defined at an off-shell momentum point, such as the popular regularization-invariant schemes. For the first time, we renormalize the lattice ΔS=1\Delta S=1 effective weak Hamiltonian taking into account the most important such operator, G1sγν(1γ5)DμGμνdG_1 \propto \overline s \gamma_\nu (1-\gamma_5) D_\mu G_{\mu\nu} d. This removes an important systematic error in calculations of weak matrix elements on the lattice.
