Recently, it has been shown that the concept of the pole mass of a heavy quark becomes ambiguous beyond perturbation theory, because of the presence of infrared renormalons. We argue that the predictions of heavy quark effective theory,…
We complete the derivation of the conservative dynamics of binary systems to fourth Post-Newtonian (4PN) order in the effective field theory (EFT) approach. We present a self-contained (ambiguity-free) computation of the renormalized…
This work presents some results about Wick polynomials of a vector field renormalization in locally covariant algebraic quantum field theory in curved spacetime. General vector fields are pictured as sections of natural vector bundles over…
Power corrections to exclusive processes are usually calculated using models for twist-four distribution amplitudes (DA) which are based on the leading-order terms in the conformal expansion. In this work we develop a different approach…
The consistent recursive subtraction of UV divergences order by order in the loop expansion for spontaneously broken effective field theories with dimension-6 derivative operators is presented for an Abelian gauge group. We solve the…
Within the framework of a manifestly gauge invariant exact renormalization group for SU(N) Yang-Mills, we derive a simple expression for the expectation value of an arbitrary gauge invariant operator. We illustrate the use of this formula…
We present non-perturbative results for the constants needed for on-shell $O(a)$ improvement of bilinear operators composed of Wilson fermions. We work at $\beta=6.0$ and 6.2 in the quenched approximation. The calculation is done by…
For moments of leptoproduction structure functions we show that all dependence on the renormalization and factorization scales disappears, provided that all the ultraviolet logarithms involving the physical energy scale Q are completely…
The Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) coupling, $\alpha_s$, is not a physical observable of the theory since it depends on conventions related to the renormalization procedure. We introduce a definition of the QCD coupling, denoted by…
CoDEx is a Mathematica package that calculates the Wilson Coefficients (WCs) corresponding to effective operators up to mass dimension-6. Once the part of the Lagrangian involving single as well as multiple degenerate heavy fields,…
We calculate the one-loop corrections to the Kaluza-Klein gauge boson excitations in the deconstructed version of the 5D QED. Deconstruction provides a renormalizable UV completion of the 5D theory that enables to control the cut-off…
Hard momentum cutoff is used for estimating IR/UV corrections to the Casimir force. In contrast to the power-law corrections arising from the IR cutoff, one will find the UV cutoff-dependent corrections to be exponentially suppressed. As a…
Pointing out the incompleteness of conventional macroscopic Maxwell equations (M-eqs.), we propose a new form derived from the long wavelength approximation (LWA) of microscopic nonlocal response. From the general Hamilonian of matter and…
The standard formulation of parton physics involves light-cone correlations of quark and gluon fields in a hadron, which leads to a widespread impression that it can only be studied through real-time Hamiltonian dynamics or light-front…
We present analytic formulae for the QCD renormalization group factors relating the Wilson coefficients C_i(mu_t) and C_i(mu), with mu_t = O(m_t) and mu < mu_t, of the Delta F=2 dimension six four-quark operators Q_i in the Standard Model…
Unrenormalizable theories contain infinitely many free parameters. Considering these theories in terms of the Wilsonian renormalization group (RG), we suggest a method for removing this large ambiguity. Our basic assumption is the existence…
The connection between renormalons and power corrections is investigated for the typical infrared renormalon integral assuming the effective coupling constant has an infrared fixed point of an entirely perturbative origin. It is shown that…
In these lectures we give a concise introduction to the ideas of renormalon calculus in QED and QCD. We focus in particular on the example of the Adler D function of vacuum polarization, and on relations between perturbative renormalon…
In the usual Clifford algebra formulation of electrodynamics the Faraday bivector field $F$ is expressed in terms of \QTR{em}{the observer dependent} relative vectors $\QTR{bf}{E}$ and $\QTR{bf}{B.}$ In this paper we present \QTR{em}{the…
We work in theories with both light and heavy particles. A method to obtain an effective low energy action with respect to the light particle is presented. Thanks to Wilsonian renormalization, we obtain effective actions with finite number…
