In the calculation of quantum-mechanical singular-potential scattering, one encounters divergence. We suggest three renormalization schemes, dimensional renormalization, analytic continuation approach, and minimal-subtraction scheme to…
This dissertation addresses a topic that I have worked on over the past decade: the automation of next-to-leading order electroweak corrections in the Standard Model of particle physics. After introducing the basic concepts and techniques…
Factorized dynamics in soliton cellular automata with quantum group symmetry is identified with a motion of particles and anti-particles exhibiting pair creation and annihilation. An embedding scheme is presented showing that the…
We explain why it is possible to formulate a wide variety of high energy (small-x) photon-proton processes in terms of a universal dipole cross section and compare and contrast various parameterizations of this function that exist in the…
In a weakly coupled ultrarelativistic plasma, $1 + n \leftrightarrow 2 + n$ scatterings, with $n \ge 0$, need sometimes to be summed to all orders, in order to determine a leading-order interaction rate. To implement this "LPM resummation",…
We present and compare three generically applicable signal processing methods for periodic orbit quantization via harmonic inversion of semiclassical recurrence functions. In a first step of each method, a band-limited decimated periodic…
We compute the next-to-leading order corrections in $\alpha_s$ to prompt diphoton production in association with a jet at hadron colliders. We use a next-to-leading order general-purpose partonic Monte Carlo event generator that allows the…
In this publication the implementation of a new parton shower model based on the Catani-Seymour dipole factorisation, as first suggested by Z. Nagy and D. E. Soper, is discussed. First results obtained with the new algorithm are compared…
The computation of exclusive QCD jet observables at higher orders requires a method for the subtraction of infrared singular configurations arising from multiple radiation of real partons. We present a subtraction scheme relevant for NNLO…
We provide an elementary pedagogical introduction to some basic concepts and techniques of soft (or Sudakov) resummation, specifically in QCD, paying particular attention to simple but useful tricks of the trade. We briefly review collinear…
Taking a large amount of images, the Cassini Imaging Science Subsystem (ISS) has been routinely used in astrometry. In ISS images, disk-resolved objects often lead to false detection of stars that disturb the camera pointing correction. The…
We consider direct diphoton production in hadron collisions. We compute the next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) QCD radiative corrections at the fully-differential level. Our calculation uses the qT subtraction formalism and it is…
In 2021, Casares, Colcombet and Fijalkow introduced the Alternating Cycle Decomposition (ACD), a structure used to define optimal transformations of Muller into parity automata and to obtain theoretical results about the possibility of…
The O(alpha) electroweak radiative corrections to gamma gamma --> WW --> 4f within the electroweak Standard Model are calculated in double-pole approximation (DPA). Virtual corrections are treated in DPA, leading to a classification into…
We propose a method for calculating DIS jet production cross sections in QCD at NLO accuracy with consistent treatment of heavy quarks. The scheme relies on the dipole subtraction method for jets, which we extend to all possible initial…
As a preliminary step, the radiation produced by a classical charged current coupled to a quantized $A_{\mu}$ is solved. To each order in $\alpha$, all infrared divergences cancel between the virtual $\gamma$'s and the real $\gamma$'s…
We show that the inference problem of constraining the dipole amplitude with inclusive deep inelastic scattering data can be written into a discrete linear inverse problem, in an analogous manner as can be done for computed tomography. To…
Light cone perturbation theory has become an essential tool to calculate cross sections for various small-$x$ dilute-dense processes such as deep inelastic scattering and forward proton-proton and proton-nucleus collisions. Here we set out…

We investigate high-harmonic generation in closed systems, using the two-level atom as a simplified model. By means of a windowed Fourier transform of the time-dependent dipole acceleration, we extract the main contributions to this process…
