Field-theoretic description of Carrollian theories has largely remained classical so far. In this paper, we attempt to study the renormalization of Carrollian gauge field theories via path integral techniques. The case of Carrollian…
We solve renormalization group equation in QCD in the presence of SU(3) constant chromo-electric field E^a with arbitrary color index a=1,2,...8 and find that the QCD coupling constant \alpha_s depends on two independent casimir/gauge…
Using renormalization group methods we calculate the derivative expansion of the effective Lagrangian for a covariantly constant gauge field in curved spacetime. Curvature affects the vacuum, in particular it could induce phase transitions…
Light-front quantum chromodynamics may lead to an accurate constituent approximation for the low-energy properties of hadrons. This requires a cutoff that violates explicit gauge invariance and Lorentz covariance, leading to the calculation…
The use of entanglement renormalization in the presence of scale invariance is investigated. We explain how to compute an accurate approximation of the critical ground state of a lattice model, and how to evaluate local observables,…
Concerning renormalisation group theory applied to phase transitions, we examine the value of positive numerical and analytical evidence, the divergent short-wavelength behaviour of classical free fields and the absence of UV-divergences in…
Cosmological perturbation theory is the theory of fluctuations (scalar as well as tensor) around the inflationary cosmological background solution. It is important to understand the details of the process of renormalization in this theory.…
The running coupling constants are introduced in Quantum Mechanics and their evolution is described by the help of the renormalization group equation.
Analytic structure in the strong coupling constant that emerges for some observables in QCD after duality averaging of renormalization group improved amplitudes is discussed. It is shown that perturbation theory calculations are justified…
The aim of this paper is to describe how to use regularization and renormalization to construct a perturbative quantum field theory from a Lagrangian. We first define renormalizations and Feynman measures, and show that although there need…
Topics in the description of the properties of charmonium states are reviewed with an emphasis on specific theoretical ideas and methods of relating those properties to the underlying theory of Quantum Chromodynamics.
A theoretical scheme, based on a probabilistic generalization of the Hamilton's principle, is elaborated to obtain an unified description of more general dynamical behaviors determined both from a lagrangian function and by mechanisms not…
I review the theory of renormalization, as applied to weak-coupling perturbation theory in quantum field theories.
Physical quantities in QCD do not depend upon $\alpha_s(Q)$. There is no way to measure $\alpha_s(Q)$ experimentally. If those statements sound shocking, please read on. They are actually well-known facts, though ones that are constantly…
I review the formalism, Feynman rules, and combinatorics that constrain a field to propagate ``classically", strictly in tree diagrams, either by itself, or interacting with other, purely quantum fields. The perturbation theory is…
We present an extremely simple solution to the renormalization of quantum electrodynamics based on Epstein-Glaser approach to renormalization theory.
A causal, non-Hermitian, renormalizable, local, unitary and Lorentz convariant formulation of Quantum Theory (QT) (= Quantum Mechanics (QM) and Quantum Field Theory (QFT)) is developed which is free of formalistic problems we face in the…
We investigate quantum longitudinal rescaling of electrodynamics, transforming coordinates as $x^{0,3}\to\lambda x^{0,3}$ and $x^{1,2}\to x^{1,2}$, to one loop. We do this by an aspherical Wilsonian renormalization, which was applied…
We discuss the fundamental constants of physics in the Standard Model and possible changes of these constants on the cosmological time scale. The Grand Unification of the strong, electromagnetic and weak interactions implies relations…
We present the quantum field description of Galilean electrodynamics minimally coupled to massless Galilean fermion in (3 + 1) dimensions. At the classical level, the Lagrangian is obtained as a null reduction of a relativistic theory in…
