In this paper, we show that the common hard kernel of double-log-type or threshold-type factorization for certain space-like parton correlators that arise in the context of lattice parton distributions, the heavy-light Sudakov hard kernel,…
In a previous article, we have shown that the discrepancy between the fixed-order (FOPT) and contour-improved (CIPT) perturbative expansions for $\tau$ hadronic spectral function moments, which had affected the precision of $\alpha_s$…
Estimates of higher-order contributions for perturbative series in QCD, in view of their asymptotic nature, are delicate, though indispensable for a reliable error assessment in phenomenological applications. In this work, the Adler…
I give a short review of the relation of infrared renormalons in QCD and higher twist effects, with the emphasis on possible applications. In particular, I present estimates of renormalon-induced uncertainties in deep inelastic sum rules…
Infrared renormalons and $1/Q^2$ power corrections in deep-inelastic sum rules are studied. The renormalization of operators with power divergence are discussed. The higher-twist terms in the operator product expansion are shown to account…
We calculate the small-momentum expansion of vector, axial-vector, scalar, and pseudo-scalar heavy-quark current correlators in the large-$\beta_0$ limit of QCD, extending the analysis of Grozin and Sturm beyond the vector current. Our…
The renormalon singularities are a known source of the divergent behavior of asymptotic perturbative series from field theoretical models. These singularities live in the Borel plane and are responsible for ambiguities in the physical…
For precise QCD prediction of observables, the ambiguity due to renormalons in perturbative calculations should be appropriately separated from Wilson coefficients in the framework of the operator-product-expansion. Recently, a new method…
We make an intensive investigation of the soft mode at the quantum chromodynamics (QCD) critical point on the basis of the functional renormalization group (FRG) method in the local potential approximation. We calculate the spectral…
The presence or absense of renormalon singularities in the Borel plane is shown to be determined by the analytic properties of the Gell-Mann - Low function \beta(g) and some other functions. A constructive criterion for the absense of…
Higher order renormalons beyond the chain of one-loop bubbles are discussed. A perturbation method for the infrared renormalon residue is found. The large order behavior of the current-current correlation function due to the first infrared…
We present additional observations to previous studies on the infrared (IR) renormalon in $SU(N)$ QCD(adj.), the $SU(N)$ gauge theory with $n_W$-flavor adjoint Weyl fermions on~$\mathbb{R}^3\times S^1$ with the $\mathbb{Z}_N$ twisted…
Renormalisation group flows of the bosonic nonlinear \sigma-model are governed, perturbatively, at different orders of \alpha', by the perturbatively evaluated \beta--functions. In regions where \frac{\alpha'}{R_c^2} << 1 the flow equations…
Relation between the infrared renormalons, the Borel resummation prescriptions, and the analyticity structure of Green functions in perturbative QCD (pQCD) is investigated. A specific recently suggested Borel resummation prescription…
Infrared power corrections for Minkowskian QCD observables are analyzed in the framework of renormalon resummation, motivated by analogy with the skeleton expansion in QED and the BLM approach. Performing the ``massive gluon'' renormalon…
According to standard lore, perturbative series of super-renormalizable theories have only instanton singularities. In this paper we show that two-dimensional scalar theories with a spontaneously broken $O(N)$ symmetry at the classical…
We discuss the renormalon-based approach to power corrections in non-singlet deep inelastic scattering structure functions and compare it with the general operator product expansion. The renormalon technique and its variations relate the…
Recently, we have developed a formalism to evaluate QCD loop diagrams with a single virtual gluon using a running coupling constant at the vertices. This corresponds to an all-order resummation of certain terms (the so-called renormalon…
We consider a new class of perturbation expansions, which incorporate in a systematic way the available information about the divergent character of the perturbation series in QCD. The new expansion functions, which replace the powers of…
This is a doctoral thesis dissertation developed in the frame of theoretical QCD predictions, with focus on two main topics. On the one hand, the large-order bahavior of perturbative QCD series is discussed. By reviewing the main…
