We work in theories with both light and heavy particles. A method to obtain an effective low energy action with respect to the light particle is presented. Thanks to Wilsonian renormalization, we obtain effective actions with finite number…
We use the Wilson renormalization group (RG) formulation to solve the fine-tuning procedure needed in renormalization schemes breaking the gauge symmetry. To illustrate this method we systematically compute the non-invariant couplings of…
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…
In the naive form of most resummations we get into conflict with order-by-order renormalization. We present a method that is capable to ensure UV consistency of any resummations satisfying certain conditions. The method is based on the…
A basic problem in linear particle optics is to find a symplectic transformation that brings the (symmetric) beam matrix to a special diagonal form, called normal form. The conventional way to do this involves an eigenvalue-decomposition of…
We discuss the one-loop electroweak renormalization of the leptonic mixing matrix in the case of Majorana neutrinos, and establish its relationship with the renormalization group evolution of the dimension five operator responsible for the…
We derive bases of improved operators for all bilinear quark currents up to spin two (including the operators measuring the first moment of DIS Structure Functions), and compute their one-loop renormalization constants for arbitrary…
Renormalization group evolution of QCD composite light-cone operators, built from two and more quark and gluon fields, is responsible for the logarithmic scaling violations in diverse physical observables. We analyze spectra of anomalous…
Using Wilsonian renormalization, we calculate the quantum correction to observable quantities, rather than the bare parameters, of the Higgs field. A physical parameter, such as a mass-squared or a quartic coupling, at an energy scale $\mu$…
We determine a basis of dimension-7 operators which arise at O($a$) in the Symanzik expansion of the $\Delta B=2$ operators with static heavy quarks. We consider both Wilson-like and Ginsparg-Wilson light quarks. Exact chiral symmetry…
We study the renormalization of operators of the type ${\bar h_{v'}} \Gamma G^{\mu\nu} h_v$ in the heavy-quark effective theory (HQET). We construct the combinations of such operators that are renormalized multiplicatively, and calculate…
Reparametrization invariance is the invariance of the heavy mass limit under small changes of the heavy-quark four velocity. We discuss the implications of this invariance for non-local light cone operators, the matrix elements of which are…
Multi-photon and coherent states of light are formulated in terms of a reducible representation of canonical commutation relations. Standard properties of such states are recovered as certain limiting cases. The new formalism leads to field…
We address the problem of nonperturbative calculations on the light front in quantum field theory regularized by Pauli-Villars method. As a preliminary step we construct light front Hamiltonians in (2+1)-dimensional $\lambda\phi^4$ model,…
We compute correlators of two heavy and two light operators in the strong coupling and large $c$ limit of the D1D5 CFT which is dual to weakly coupled AdS$_3$ gravity. The light operators have dimension two and are scalar descendants of the…
We present the one-loop electroweak renormalization of the CP-violating 2-Higgs-Doublet Model with softly broken $\mathbb{Z}_2$ symmetry (C2HDM). The existence of CP violation in the scalar sector of the model leads to a quite unique…
We present a determination of a new class of three-loop Feynman diagrams describing heavy-to-light transitions. We apply it to find the O(alpha_s^2) corrections to the top quark decay t -> bW and to the distribution of lepton invariant mass…
A Wilsonian renormalization group approach is applied, in order to include effects of the higher Landau levels for quarks into a set of renormalized parameters for the lowest Landau level (LLL), plus a set of operators made of the LLL…
We present the complete 2-loop renormalization group equations of the supersymmetric standard model. We thus explicitly include the full set of $R $-parity violating couplings, including $\kappa_iL_iH_2$. We use these equations to do a…
We calculate radiative corrections to the light-cone sum rule for the semileptonic form factor in $B\to\pi e\nu$ decays and thus remove the major uncertainty in determining the CKM mixing angle $|V_{ub}|$ by this method. We discuss the…
