We revisit scalar $\phi^4$ theory and construct a reorganized perturbative expansion in which the kinetic operator, rather than the quartic interaction, is treated as the perturbation. Starting from the exactly solvable $0$-dimensional…
The $t\bar{t}$ system allows a truly perturbative treatment of the potential. Completing previous computations, we calculate the contributions of QCD box graph corrections, which make the ``relativistic'' $O(\a^4)$ corrections in the…
Based on the compilation of the available e^+e^- data, we present a non-perturbative estimation of the Adler function derived from the electromagnetic current correlator, and compare it with theoretical predictions from perturbative QCD…
We address the problem of potential non-universality of the leading 1/Q power corrections to jet shapes emerging from the non-inclusive character of these observables. We consider the thrust distribution as an example and analyse the…
In the cross section for single-inclusive jet production in electron-nucleon collisions, the distribution of a quark in an electron appears at next-to-next-to-leading order. The numerical calculations in Ref. [1] were carried out using a…
The generalized Crewther relation relates the cross section ratio $R=\sigma(e^+e^- \to {\rm hadrons})/\sigma(e^+e^- \to {\mu}^+ {\mu}^-)$ in $e^+e^-$ annihilation with the Bjorken sum rule or the Gross-Llewellyn Smith sum rule in deep…
