Helicity amplitudes are the fundamental ingredients of many QCD calculations for multi-leg processes. We describe how these can seamlessly be combined with resummation in Soft-Collinear Effective Theory (SCET), by constructing a helicity…

We explore the relation between resummation and explicit multi-loop calculations for QCD hard-scattering amplitudes. We describe how the factorization properties of amplitudes lead to the exponentiation of double and single poles at each…
We present new results on the summation of nonpower-series expansions in QCD Analytic Perturbation Theory (APT) in the one-loop approximation. We show how to generalize the approach suggested by one of us earlier to the cases of APT and…
