Rephasing invariants of quark and lepton mixing matrices are obtained in the standard model extended by the seesaw mechanism, and in its low-energy effective theory with the dimension-five Majorana mass operator. We classify the basic…
By using quark Yukawa matrices only, we can construct renormalization invariants that are exact at the one-loop level in the standard model. One of them $I^q$ is accidentally consistent with unity, even though quark masses are strongly…
We study the renormalization of normal mixing matrices, which includes hermitian and unitary matrices as particular cases. We give a minimal, multiplicative parametrization of counterterms, and compute the renormalized Lagrangian to…
For arbitrary scalar QFTs in four dimensions, renormalisation group equations of quartic and cubic interactions, mass terms, as well as field anomalous dimensions are computed at three-loop order in the $\overline{\text{MS}}$ scheme.…
A renormalization scheme is suggested where QCD input parameters - quark mass and coupling constant - are expressed in terms of gauge invariant and infrared stable quantities. For the renormalization of coupling constant the quark anomalous…
We investigate the renormalization of the quark-mixing matrix in the Electroweak Standard Model. We show that the corresponding counterterms must be gauge independent as a consequence of extended BRS invariance. Using rigid SU(2)_L…
We present the current status of a revised strategy to compute the running of renormalized quark masses in QCD with three flavours of massless O(a) improved Wilson quarks. The strategy employed uses the standard finite-size scaling method…
We examine quark flavour mixing matrices for three and four generations using the recursive parametrization of $U(n)$ and $SU(n)$ matrices developed by some of us in Refs.[2] and [3]. After a brief summary of the recursive parametrization,…
We propose a new and simple method for determining the renormalized quark masses from lattice simulations. Renormalized quark masses are an important input to many phenomenological applications, including searching and modeling physics…
Seeking mass patterns is a key to decoding the unknown flavor puzzles in particle physics. Inspired by quark hierarchical masses, the mass matrix can universally be factorized into a family-diagonal phase matrix $K_L^q$ and a real symmetric…
If the scale dependence of a Yukawa matrix is assumed to be determined entirely by the dominant 33-element, then the renormalization group equations can be expressed in terms of two separate equations: a differential equation for the…
A simple inspection of the one loop quark self-energy suggests a prescription of the CKM matrix renormalization in the standard model. It leads to a CKM matrix counterterm which is gauge parameter independent and satisfies the unitarity…
We have recently argued that quark masses may follow a simple scaling law. In this paper we build a simple mass matrix for quarks that can reproduce the scaling law expression. The simple mass matrices of the model are then generalized…
The renormalization issue of the reparameterization invariance in heavy quark effective theory and NRQCD is investigated. I argue that the renormalization of the transformation of the heavy quark field under the variation of the velocity…
We show renormalization group invariants in neutrino sector. These are found from a simple analytical discussion of Majorana mass matrix for light neutrinos. It is shown that the invariants are obtained by taking ratios among elements of…
We show that the main features of the pattern of fermion masses and mixing can be expressed in terms of simple relations among weak-basis invariants. In the quark sector, we identify the weak-basis invariants which signal the observed…
We present a determination of the charm- and bottom-quark masses using the heavy-quark step-scaling strategy. Renormalization is performed in small volumes where relativistic bottom quarks can be simulated directly. A sequence of…
The paper proposes an algorithm for regularization of the self-energy expressions for a Dirac particle that meets the relativistic and gauge invariance requirements.
We discuss a new general class of mass matrix ansatz that respects the fermion mass hierarchy and calculability of the flavor mixing matrix. This is a generalization and justification of the various specific forms of the mass matrix by…
Within the standard electroweak model we point out that the $3\times 3$ matrix of quark mixing is characterized by three universal (rephasing-invariant) quantities: one of them for $CP$ violation and the other two for off-diagonal…
