We present a review of the relations between various equations for maximal cut banana Feynman diagrams, i.e. amplitudes with propagators substituted with $\delta$-functions. We consider both equal and generic masses. There are three types…
This is a first stab at a mathematical framework in which one can study quantum field theories on spacetimes with quite general geometries. We will study these theories via their factorization algebras. The aim is to identify a minimalist…
We review progress in calculating one-loop scattering amplitudes required for next-to-leading-order corrections to QCD processes. The underlying technical developments include the spinor helicity formalism, color decompositions,…
These are notes from talks given at a spring school on topological quantum field theory in Nova Scotia during May of 2023. The aim is to introduce the reader to the role of factorization algebras and related concepts in field theory. In…
We propose a QCD-based model for calculation of the non-perturbative corrections to the factorization approximation in the decays of heavy mesons. In the framework of the model, factorization in pseudoscalar transitions holds exactly at the…
The QCD$\times$QED factorization is studied for two-body non-leptonic and semi-leptonic $B$ decays with heavy-light final states. These non-leptonic decays, like $\bar{B}^0_{(s)}\to D^+_{(s)} \pi^-$ and $\bar{B}_d^0 \to D^+ K^-$, are among…
The factorization theorems of quantum chromodynamics (QCD) apply equally well to most simple quantum field theories that require renormalization but where direct calculations are much more straightforward. Working with these simpler…
We compute in conventional dimensional regularisation the tree-level splitting amplitudes for a quark parent in the limit where four partons become collinear to each other. This is part of the universal infrared behaviour of the QCD…
In this note, we study a factorization result for graded decomposition maps associated with the specializations of graded algebras. We obtain results previously known only in the ungraded setting.
Transverse-momentum-dependent parton distribution functions (TMDs) can be studied from first principles by a perturbative matching onto lattice-calculable quantities: so-called lattice TMDs, which are a class of equal-time correlators that…
We provide formulas for generating functions of many types of paths in various rooted tree structures. We compute the $k$th moment of the generating functions for various types of vertical paths. In two specific familes of trees we find…
We offer multiplication method for factoring big natural numbers which extends the group of the Fermat's and Lehman's factorization algorithms and has run-time complexity $O(n^{1/3})$. This paper is argued the finiteness of proposed…
Subsequently to the author's preceding paper, we give full proofs of some explicit formulas about factorizations of $K$-$k$-Schur functions associated with any multiple $k$-rectangles.
We present a simple method to automatically evaluate arbitrary tree-level amplitudes involving the production or decay of a heavy quark pair QQbar in a generic {2S+1}L_J^[1,8] state, i.e., the short distance coefficients appearing in the…
We formalize an existing computability-theoretic method of presenting first-order structures whose domains have the cardinality of the continuum. Work using these methods until now has emphasized their topological properties. We shift the…
Consider the generalized iterated wreath product $\mathbb{Z}_{r_1}\wr \mathbb{Z}_{r_2}\wr \ldots \wr \mathbb{Z}_{r_k}$ where $r_i \in \mathbb{N}$. We prove that the irreducible representations for this class of groups are indexed by a…
We consider the singular behaviour of one-loop QCD matrix elements when several external partons become simultaneously parallel. We present a new factorization formula that describes the singular collinear behaviour directly in colour…
Tree-width is an invaluable tool for computational problems on graphs. But often one would like to compute on other kinds of objects (e.g. decorated graphs or even algebraic structures) where there is no known tree-width analogue. Here we…
Truncated Fourier, Gauss, Kummer and exponential sums can be used to factorize numbers: for a factor these sums equal unity in absolute value, whereas they nearly vanish for any other number. We show how this factorization algorithm can…
The generalized *-products, or the $*_N$-products, appear both in the one-loop effective action of noncommutative Yang-Mills theories and in the coupling of a closed string to N open strings on a disk when the D-brane world-volume is…
