In this work, we review and clarify computational issues about the W-gauge boson one-loop contribution to the H -> gamma gamma decay amplitude, in the unitary gauge and in the Standard Model. We find that highly divergent integrals depend…
The one-loop calculation of the amplitude for the Higgs decay H-->\gamma\gamma\ due to virtual W's in the unitary gauge is presented. As the Higgs does not directly couple to the massless photons, the one-loop amplitude is finite. The…

The Fokker action of point-particle binaries at the fourth post-Newtonian (4PN) approximation of general relativity has been determined previously. However two ambiguity parameters associated with infra-red (IR) divergencies of spatial…
We comment on the recently reiterated claim that the contribution of the W-boson loop to the Higgs boson decay into two photons leads to different expressions in the $R_\xi$ gauge and the unitary gauge. By applying a gauge-symmetry…
The imaginary part of the Feynman amplitude of the $W$-loop contribution to the Higgs decay into two gammas (viewed as a function of the square of the off shell Higgs momentum) is finite and unambiguous. It is presented as the product of an…
We consider the inverse problem of reconstructing inhomogeneities by performing a finite number of scattering measurements of acoustic type in the time-harmonic setting. We set up the reconstruction as a fully discrete variational problem…

One of the main achievements of LQG is the consistent quantization of the Wheeler-DeWitt equation which is free of UV problems. However, ambiguities associated to the intermediate regularization procedure lead to an apparently infinite set…
In this contribution, we present a new perspective on the control of quadratic divergences in quantum field theory, in general, and in the Higgs naturalness problem, in particular. Our discussion is essentially based on an approach where UV…
We describe an algorithm to organize Feynman integrals in terms of their infrared properties. Our approach builds upon the theory of Landau singularities, which we use to classify all configurations of loop momenta that can give rise to…
The amplitude for Higgs boson decay into two photons in a homogeneous and time-independent magnetic field is investigated by proper-time regularization in a gauge invariant manner and is found to be singular at large field values. The…
We discuss the computation of the Higgs boson decay amplitude to two photons through the W-loop using dispersion relations. The imaginary part of the form factor F_W(s) that parametrizes this decay is unambiguous in four dimensions. When it…
We describe in some detail the present features of an automatic loop calculation program as well as the integration techniques that go into it. The program, called XLOOPS 1.0, allows one to calculate massive one- and two-loop Feynman…
We calculate the complete matrix of two-body scattering amplitudes for the scattering of longitudinally polarized gauge bosons $W_L^\pm$, $Z_L$ and Higgs bosons to two loops in the high-energy, heavy-Higgs limit $\sqrt{s}\gg M_H\gg M_W$.…
In models with an extended Higgs sector, such as the (N)MSSM, scalar states mix with one another. Yet, the concept of Higgs mixing is problematic at the radiative level, since it introduces both a scheme and a gauge dependence. In…
Dimensional regularization of Euclidean momentum space integrals is a highly successful technique in renormalization of quantum field theories. While it yields a straightforward algorithmic method, with which to evaluate diagrams beyond…
