We study to one-loop order the renormalization of QCD in the Coulomb gauge using the Hamitonian formalism. Divergences occur which might require counter-terms outside the Hamiltonian formalism, but they can be cancelled by a redefinition of…
We propose and investigate efficient numerical methods for inverse problems related to Magnetic Resonance Imaging (MRI). Our goal is to extend the recent convergence results for the Landweber-Kaczmarz method obtained in [Haltmeier, Leitao,…
We clarify the role played by the Immirzi parameter in classical gravity coupled to fermions. Considering the general non-minimal coupling, we show that, although the torsion depends explicitly on the Immirzi parameter, in a suitable…
We derive the three-loop order renormalization group equations that describe the flat phase of polymerized membranes within the modified minimal subtraction scheme, following the pioneering one-loop order computation of Aronovitz and…
Quantum anomalies in the inverse square potential are well known and widely investigated. Most prominent is the unbounded increase in oscillations of the particle's state as it approaches the origin when the attractive coupling parameter is…
We recently presented a new method for the evaluation of one-loop amplitude of arbitrary scattering processes, in which the reduction to scalar integrals is performed at the integrand level. In this talk, we review the main features of the…
In this work, we employ a field-theoretic renormalization group approach to study a paradigmatic model of directed percolation. We focus on the perturbative calculation of the equation of state, extending the analysis to the three-loop…
We show that the derivative of the (measure) transfer operator with respect to the parameter of the map is a divergence. Then, for physical measures of discrete-time hyperbolic chaotic systems, we derive an equivariant divergence formula…
We present results for the renormalization of gauge invariant nonlocal fermion operators which contain a Wilson line, to one loop level in lattice perturbation theory. Our calculations have been performed for Wilson/clover fermions and a…

A comparison of spectra obtained using the 1-loop MSSM and 2-loop R-parity violating MSSM renormalization group equations is presented. Influence of higher loop corrections and R-parity violating terms is discussed. Some numerical…
The critical behavior for intermittency is studied in two coupled one-dimensional (1D) maps. We find two fixed maps of an approximate renormalization operator in the space of coupled maps. Each fixed map has a common relavant eigenvaule…
We present the results of a complete two-loop calculation at order q^6 of the nucleon mass in manifestly Lorentz-invariant chiral perturbation theory. The renormalization is performed using the reformulated infrared renormalization, which…
We present a high order perturbative computation of the renormalization constants Z_V, Z_A and of the ratio Z_P/Z_S for Wilson fermions. The computational setup is the one provided by the RI'-MOM scheme. Three- and four-loop expansions are…
The renormalization group method is a successive integration over the fluctuations which are ordered according to their length scale, a parameter in the external space. A different procedure is described, where the fluctuations are treated…
We present a formalism for the calculation of multi-particle one-loop amplitudes, valid for an arbitrary number N of external legs, and for massive as well as massless particles. A new method for the tensor reduction is suggested which…
We use path integrals to calculate perturbative corrections to the correlation function of a particle under the action of nonlinear optical tweezers, both in the overdamped and underdamped regimes. In both cases, it is found that to leading…
A simple parametrization of the QCD running coupling at low scales is introduced and used to illustrate various schemes for the estimation of non-perturbative power corrections. The `infrared matching' scheme proposed earlier gives…
