We show that even $\zeta$-functions may be removed from the $\beta$-functions of general multi-coupling theories up to high loop order by means of coupling redefinitions. For theories whose $\beta$-function is determined by the anomalous…
We compute the beta functions of the three Standard Model gauge couplings to four-loop order in the modified minimal subtraction scheme. At this order a proper definition of $\gamma_5$ in $D=4-2\epsilon$ space-time dimensions is required;…
We present the extension of our previous results for three-loop Yukawa coupling beta-functions to the case of complex Yukawa matrices describing the flavour structure of the SM. The calculation is carried out in the context of unbroken…
The complete set of two-loop renormalization group equations in general gauge field theories is presented. This includes the \beta functions of parameters with and without a mass dimension.
We focus on a non-abelian gauge field coupled to a single (but general) representation of a family of Nf fermions. By using the same machinery that had allowed us to evaluate the sub-leading large-Nf term of the five-loop Beta function…
The treatment of $\gamma_{5}$ in Dimensional Regularization leads to ambiguities in field-theoretic calculations, of which one example is the coefficient of a particular term in the four-loop gauge $\beta$-functions of the Standard Model.…
We construct the field theory which describes the universal properties of the quasi-static isotropic depinning transition for interfaces and elastic periodic systems at zero temperature, taking properly into account the non-analytic form of…
Within the framework of QCD we compute renormalization constants for the strong coupling and the quark masses to four-loop order. We apply the DR-bar scheme and put special emphasis on the additional couplings which have to be taken into…
We show that gauge-independent terms in the one-loop and multi-loops $\beta$-functions of the Standard Model can be exactly computed from the Wetterich functional renormalization of a matrix model. Our framework is associated to the finite…
A two-loop calculation of the renormalization group $\beta$--function in a momentum subtraction scheme with massive quarks is presented using the background field formalism. The results have been obtained by using a set of new generalized…
We calculate the third coefficient of the lattice beta function associated with the Wilson formulation for both gauge fields and fermions. This allows us to evaluate the three-loop correction (linear in $g_0^2$) to the relation between the…
We investigate a family of four-dimensional quantum field theories with weakly interacting ultraviolet fixed points up to four loop order in perturbation theory. Key new ingredients are the three loop gauge contributions to quartic scalar…
The decoupling of heavy fields as required by the Appelquist-Carazzone theorem plays a fundamental role in the construction of any effective field theory. However, it is not a trivial task to implement a renormalization prescription that…
The perturbative all-loop derivation of the NSVZ $\beta$-function for ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric gauge theories regularized by higher covariant derivatives is finalized by calculating the sum of singularities produced by quantum…
By explicit solution of the one-loop finiteness conditions for gauge and quartic scalar-boson self-interaction coupling constants, a particular class of grand unified theories with vanishing Yukawa couplings as well as vanishing one-loop…
All one-loop renormalization constants for Non-Abelian gauge theory are computed in details by using the symmetry-preserving Loop Regularization method proposed in\cite{LR1,LR2}. The resulting renormalization constants are manifestly shown…
We study the 3-point functions of single-trace scalar operators in a four-dimensional $\mathcal{N}=2$ SYM theory with gauge group $\mathrm{SU}(N)$ and matter in the symmetric plus anti-symmetric representation, which has a vanishing…

The running of quantum field theories can be studied in detail with the use of a local renormalization group equation. The usual beta-function effects are easy to include, but by introducing spacetime-dependence of the various parameters of…
We calculate the four-loop $\beta$-function for the generalised Wess-Zumino model. We use the result and Pad\'e-Borel summation to discuss the domain of attraction of the quasi-infra-red fixed point of the top-quark Yukawa coupling in the…
