For a massive gauge theory with Higgs mechanism in a physical gauge, the longitudinal polarization of gauge bosons can be naturally identified as mixture of the goldstone component and a remnant gauge component that vanishes at the limit of…
Consistent interactions for off-shell fermion fields of arbitrary spin are constructed from the gauge-invariance requirement of the interaction Lagrangians. These interactions play a crucial role in the quantum hadrodynamical description of…

The on-shell diagram is a very important tool in studying scattering amplitudes. In this paper we discuss the on-shell diagrams without external BCFW-bridges. We introduce an extra step of adding an auxiliary external momentum line. Then we…

The consistent description of unstable particles, renormalons, or other Schwinger--Dyson-type of solutions within the framework of perturbative gauge field theories necessitates the definition and resummation of off-shell Green's functions,…

We present a unified point of view on the different methods available in the literature to extract gauge theory renormalization constants from the low-energy limit of string theory. The Bern-Kosower method, based on an off-shell…
It was recently pointed out that the on-shell renormalization of the Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa (CKM) matrix in the method by Denner and Sack causes a gauge parameter dependence of the amplitudes. We analyze the gauge dependence of the…
More than twenty years have passed since the threads of the `proper time formalism' in covariant classical and quantum mechanics were brought together to construct a canonical formalism for the relativistic mechanics of many particles.…
We formulate a momentum-shell renormalization group (RG) procedure that can be used in theories containing both bosons and fermions with a Fermi surface. We focus on boson-fermion couplings that are nearly forward-scattering, {\it i.e.}…
We determine the three-loop form factor parameterising the amplitude for the production of an off-shell Higgs boson in gluon fusion in QCD with a single massive quark. The result is obtained via a numerical solution of a system of…
We calculate the fermion Green function and particle-hole susceptibilities for a degenerate two-dimensional fermion system with a singular gauge interaction. We show that this is a strong coupling problem, with no small parameter other than…
Gapped fermion theories with gapless boundary fermions can exist in any number of dimensions. When the boundary has even space-time dimensions and hosts chiral fermions, a quantum Hall current flows from the bulk to the boundary in a…
We simplify the general form of the fermion-fermion-gauge boson interactions generated by dimension-six gauge-invariant effective operators by using the equations of motion to remove redundant operators. It is found that the most general…
Resummation of the soft gluon radiative corrections for the quark-vector boson vertex is performed within the path-integral (world-line) approach. The leading order expression for the vacuum averaged Wilson integral for an arbitrary gauge…
