We apply the recently developed method of differential renormalization to the Wess-Zumino model. From the explicit calculation of a finite, renormalized effective action, the $\beta$-function is computed to three loops and is found to agree…
Extended quantum mechanics using non-Hermitian, pseudo-Hermitian Hamiltonians is briefly reviewed. Supersymmetric regularizations, solvable simulations and large-N expansion techniques are recollected as suitable means for the study of…
We consider a Galilean N=2 supersymmetric theory in 2+1 dimensions with F-term couplings, obtained by null reduction of a relativistic Wess-Zumino model. We compute quantum corrections and we check that, as for the relativistic parent…
The quantization of higher order time derivative theories including interactions is unclear. In this paper in order to solve this problem, we propose to consider a complex version of the higher order derivative theory and map this theory to…
For some years there has been uncertainty over whether regularisation by dimensional reduction (DRED) is viable for non-supersymmetric theories. We resolve this issue by showing that DRED is entirely equivalent to standard dimensional…
Reparameterization invariance, a symmetry of heavy quark effective theory, appears in different forms in the literature. The most commonly cited forms of the reparameterization transformation are shown to induce the same constraints on…
The main results are: 1. A manifestly covariant technique for the calculation of De Witt coefficients is elaborated; 2. The coefficients $a_3$ and $a_4$ are calculated; 3. Covariant methods for the study of the nonlocal structure of the…
The purpose of this article is to present a new regularization technique of quasi-plurisubharmoinc functions on a compact Kaehler manifold. The idea is to regularize the function on local coordinate balls first, and then glue each piece…
We show that Green function methods can be straightforwardly applied to nonlinear equations appearing as the leading order of a short time expansion. Higher order corrections can be then computed giving a satisfactory agreement with…
It is shown that regularisation by dimensional reduction is a viable alternative to dimensional regularisation in non-supersymmetric theories.
$M$-theory is believed to be described in various dimensions by large $N$ field theories. It has been further conjectured that at finite $N$, these theories describe the discrete light cone quantization (DLCQ) of $M$ theory. Even at low…
We study conformal quantum mechanics by first considering the perturbative $S$-matrix in various dimensions. The model has two couplings and we study perturbatively the degree of ultraviolet divergences arising in the interplay between the…
Working to lowest non-trivial order in fermions, we consider the four-derivative order corrected Lagrangian and supersymmetry transformations of the Euclidean Bagger-Lambert-Gustavsson theory. By demonstrating supersymmetric invariance of…
The class of relativistic spin particle models reveals the `quantization' of parameters already at the classical level. The special parameter values emerge if one requires the maximality of classical global continuous symmetries. The same…
Quantum statistical systems, composed of atoms or molecules interacting with each other through highly singular non-integrable potentials, are considered. The treatment of such systems cannot start with the standard approximations such as…
There have been known "exact" beta functions for the gauge coupling in N=1 supersymmetric gauge theories, the so-called NSVZ beta functions. Shifman and Vainshtein (SV) further related these beta functions to the exact 1-loop running of the…
The calculation of loop amplitudes with parity violation or spin effects within dimensional regularization needs a consistent definition of gamma5. Also loop calculations in supersymmetric theories need a consistent definition of gamma5. In…
Differential regularization is applied to a field theory of a non-relativistic charged boson field $\phi$ with $\lambda (\phi {}^{*} \phi)^2$ self-interaction and coupling to a statistics-changing $U(1)$ Chern-Simons gauge field.…

In this review article we report on the newest developments in precision calculations in supersymmetric theories. An important issue related to this topic is the construction of a regularization scheme preserving simultaneously gauge…
