We discuss the matching conditions and renormalization group evolution of non-relativistic QCD. A variant of the conventional MS-bar scheme is proposed in which a subtraction velocity nu is used rather than a subtraction scale mu. We derive…
The three-loop Adler $D$-function for ${\cal N}=1$ SQCD in the $\overline{\mbox{DR}}$ scheme is calculated. It appears that the result does not satisfy NSVZ-like equation which relates the $D$-function to the anomalous dimension of the…
The standard formulation of a massive Abelian vector field in $2+1$ dimensions involves a Maxwell kinetic term plus a Chern-Simons mass term; in its place we consider a Chern-Simons kinetic term plus a Stuekelberg mass term. In this latter…
The loop-expansion of the effective potential in the $O(N)$-symmetric $\phi^4$-model contains generically two types of large logarithms. To resum those systematically a new minimal two-scale subtraction scheme $\tMS$ is introduced in an…
We focus on a non-abelian gauge field coupled to a single (but general) representation of a family of Nf fermions. By using the same machinery that had allowed us to evaluate the sub-leading large-Nf term of the five-loop Beta function…
We compute the beta-function and the anomalous dimension of all the non-derivative operators of the theory up to three-loops for the most general nearest-neighbour O(N)-invariant action together with some contributions to the four-loop…
We construct the five loop anomalous dimensions of the basic fields in Quantum Chromodynamics in a linear covariant gauge in the modified Regularization Invariant (RI') scheme. Using these core results we also compute the four loop Green's…
We extend the theoretical prediction for the width difference $\Delta \Gamma_q$ in the mixing of neutral $B$ mesons in the Standard Model to next-to-next-to-leading order in $\alpha_s$. To this aim we calculate three-loop diagrams with two…
We extend our previous study of the SU(3) gauge theory with N_f=2 flavors of fermions in the sextet representation of color. Our tool is the Schroedinger functional method. By changing the lattice action, we push the bulk transition of the…
We reexamine the problem of operator mixing in N = 4 SYM. Particular attention is paid to the correct definition of composite gauge invariant local operators, which is necessary for the computation of their anomalous dimensions beyond…
The proof of the non-renormalization theorem for the gauge anomaly of four-dimensional theories is extended to the case of models with a vanishing one-loop gauge beta function.
We compute the triple gluon, quark-gluon and ghost-gluon vertices of QCD at the symmetric subtraction point at two loops in the MSbar scheme. In addition we renormalize each of the three vertices in their respective momentum subtraction…
We present the two-loop corrected operator matrix elements calculated in N-dimensional regularization up to the finite terms which survive in the limit $\epsilon = N - 4 \to 0 $. The anomalous dimensions of the local operators have been…
Magnetic catalysis describes the enhancement of symmetry breaking quantum fluctuations in chirally symmetric quantum field theories by the coupling of fermionic degrees of freedom to a magnetic background configuration. We use the…
We investigate $\beta$-functions of quantum gravity using dimensional regularisation. In contrast to minimal subtraction, a non-minimal renormalisation scheme is employed which is sensitive to power-law divergences from mass terms or…
We compute the non-planar contribution to the universal anomalous dimension of twist-two operators in N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory at four loops through Lorentz spin eighteen. Exploiting the results of this and our previous…
The renormalization procedure of the non-linear SU(2) sigma model in D=4 proposed in hep-th/0504023 and hep-th/0506220 is here tested in a truly non-trivial case where the non-linearity of the functional equation is crucial. The simplest…
The effective potential has been previously calculated through three-loop order, in Landau gauge, for a general renormalizable theory using dimensional regularization. However, dimensional regularization is not appropriate for softly broken…
In a recent re-analysis of the Standard Model (SM) beta-function for the effective neutrino mass operator, we found that the previous results were not entirely correct. Therefore, we consider the analogous dimension five operators in a…
The global structure of the renormalization-group flows of a model with isotropic and cubic interactions is studied using the massive field theory directly in three dimensions. The four-loop expansions of the $\bt$-functions are calculated…
