Renormalization constants can be computed by means of Numerical Stochastic Perturbation Theory to two/three loops in lattice perturbation theory, both in the quenched approximation and in the full (unquenched) theory. As a case of study we…

We compute the renormalization factors of four-quark operators needed for the study of $K\to\pi\pi$ decay in the $\Delta I=3/2$ channel. We evaluate the Z-factors at a low energy scale ($\mu_0=1.145 \GeV$) using four different…
By determining the quark momentum fractions of the octet baryons from N_f=2+1 lattice simulations, we are able to predict the degree of charge symmetry violation in the parton distribution functions of the nucleon. This is of importance,…
We renormalize generalized 3-quark operators that relate to baryon states using the method devised by Kr\"{a}nkl and Manashov at four loops in the MSbar scheme. The anomalous dimensions of the four core operators used to compute nucleon…
The calculation of perturbative corrections to the spectral moments observable in hadronic $\tau$ decays is reconsidered. The exact order-$\alpha_s^3$ results and the resummation procedure of Le~Diberder and Pich are compared with a partial…
The perturbative and nonperturbative renormalisation of quark-antiquark operators in lattice QCD with two flavours of clover fermions is investigated within the research programme of the QCDSF collaboration. Operators with up to three…
Baryon and lepton number are excellent low-energy symmetries of the Standard Model (SM) that tightly constrain the form of its extensions. In this paper we investigate the possibility that these accidental symmetries are violated in the…
We discuss the renormalisation properties of the full set of $\Delta F=2$ operators involved in BSM processes, including the definition of RGI versions of operators that exhibit mixing under RG transformations. As a first step for a fully…
Proton decay is usually discussed in the context of grand unified theories. However, as is well-known, in the standard model effective theory proton decay appears in the form of higher dimensional non-renormalizable operators. Here, we…
We compute several matrix elements of dimension-six four-fermion operators and extract their B-parameters. The calculations have been performed with the tree-level Clover action at $\beta = 6.0$. The renormalization constants and mixing…
Quasi-PDFs provide a path toward an ab initio calculation of parton distribution functions (PDFs) using lattice QCD. One of the problems faced in calculations of quasi-PDFs is the renormalization of a nonlocal operator. By introducing an…
In this work, we find the expressions of continuum HQET four-fermion operators in terms of lattice operators in perturbation theory. To do so, we calculate the one--loop continuum--lattice HQET matching for the complete basis of $\Delta…
We investigate the nonperturbative renormalization of composite operators in lattice QCD restricting ourselves to operators that are bilinear in the quark fields. These include operators which are relevant to the calculation of moments of…
