Stochastic processes described by evolution equations in the universality class of the FKPP equation may be approximately factorized into a linear stochastic part and a nonlinear deterministic part. We prove this factorization on a model…
The aim of this note is to give some factorization formulas for different versions of the Macdonald polynomials when the parameter t is specialized at roots of unity, generalizing those existing for Hall-Littlewood functions.
I derive a single factorization formula which summarizes all soft and collinear divergences of a tree-level gauge theory amplitude. The singular factor squared is in a certain sense the generalization of the Catani-Seymour dipole…
In this paper we construct a CHY representation for all tree-level primitive QCD amplitudes. The quarks may be massless or massive. We define a generalised cyclic factor $\hat{C}(w,z)$ and a generalised permutation invariant function…
In this paper, we study factorizations of cycles. The main result is that under certain condition, the number of ways to factor a $d$-cycle into a product of cycles of prescribed lengths is $d^{r-2}.$ To prove our result, we first define a…
In the last few years it has been proposed a one-dimensional factorization of the fermion determinant in lattice QCD with Wilson-type fermions that leads to a block-local action of the auxiliary bosonic fields. Here we propose a…
We examine factorisation in the connected prescription of Yang-Mills amplitudes. The multi-particle pole is interpreted as coming from representing delta functions as meromorphic functions. However, a naive evaluation does not give a…
By analytically continuing QCD scattering amplitudes through specific complexified momenta, one can study and learn about the nature and the consequences of factorization and unitarity. In some cases, when coupled with the largest time…
The formulas directly connecting parton distribution functions (PDFs) and fragmentation functions (FFs) at the next to leading order (NLO) QCD with the same quantities at the leading order (LO) are derived. These formulas are universal,…
We consider the singular behaviour of QCD scattering amplitudes in kinematical configurations where two or more momenta of the external partons become collinear. At the tree level, this behaviour is known to be controlled by factorization…
QR factorisation plays an important role in matrix computations. Within the context of optimisation and of automatic differentiation of such computations, we need to compute the derivative of this factorisation. For tall matrices, however,…
In a recent paper [arXiv:1106.0166], boundary contributions in BCFW recursion relations have been related to roots of amplitudes. In this paper, we make several analyses regarding to this problem. Firstly, we use different ways to re-derive…
We present a set of one-loop integral coefficient relations in QCD. The unitarity method is useful for exposing one-loop amplitudes in terms of tree amplitudes. The coefficient relations are induced by tree-level BCJ amplitude relations. We…
We introduce the notion of quantum duplicates of an (associative, unital) algebra, motivated by the problem of constructing toy-models for quantizations of certain configuration spaces in quantum mechanics. The proposed (algebraic) model…
Euclidean distance matrices corresponding to an arithmetic progression have rich spectral and structural properties. We exploit those properties to develop completely positive factorizations of translations of those matrices. We show that…
Factorization is possible due to the universal behavior of Yang-Mills theories in soft and collinear limits. Here, we take a small step towards a more transparent understanding of these limits by proving a form of perturbative factorization…
Matrix factorization is a powerful data analysis tool. It has been used in multivariate time series analysis, leading to the decomposition of the series in a small set of latent factors. However, little is known on the statistical…
Using the method of on-shell recursion relations we compute tree level amplitudes including D-dimensional scalars and fermions. These tree level amplitudes are needed for calculations of one-loop amplitudes in QCD involving external quarks…
We provide a bijection between the set of factorizations, that is, ordered (n-1)-tuples of transpositions in ${\mathcal S}_{n}$ whose product is (12...n), and labelled trees on $n$ vertices. We prove a refinement of a theorem of D\'{e}nes…
I review the treatment of high-energy QCD in Minkowski space, with an emphasis on factorization theorems as extensions of the operator product expansion. I discuss how the factorization properties of high-energy cross sections and…
