Renormalization group equations play a central role in effective field theories, both maintaining perturbative control and allowing one to determine the correct low-energy phenomenology. In this work, we complete the one-loop…
We present the Standard Model Effective Field Theories (SMEFT) from purely on-shell arguments. Starting from a few basic assumptions such as Poincar\'e invariance and locality, we classify all the renormalisable and non-renormalisable…
Even if some experimental evidence suggests the existence of physics beyond the SM, no clues of new resonances can be found in the data. In the case their masses are much larger than the energies of current experiments, the SMEFT formalism…
There are two canonical approaches to treating the Standard Model as an Effective Field Theory (EFT): Standard Model EFT (SMEFT), expressed in the electroweak symmetric phase utilizing the Higgs doublet, and Higgs EFT (HEFT), expressed in…
The low-energy effective field theory below the electroweak scale (LEFT) describes the effects at low energies of both the weak interaction and physics beyond the Standard Model. We study the one-loop renormalization of the LEFT in the 't…

Effective Field Theories (EFTs) capture effects from heavy dynamics at low energy and represent an essential ingredient in the context of Standard Model (SM) precision tests. This document gathers a number of relevant scenarios for heavy…
We consider the most general effective field theory (EFT) Lagrangian with scalar fields and derivatives, and renormalise it to substantially higher loop order than existing results in the literature. EFT Lagrangians have phenomenological…
We present the third part of a systematic calculation of the two-loop anomalous dimensions for the low-energy effective field theory below the electroweak scale (LEFT): insertions of dimension-six operators that conserve baryon number. In…
We derive the conditions for matching high-energy renormalizable Quantum Field Theories onto low-energy nonrenormalizable ones by means of the FDR approach described in Fortsch.Phys. 63 (2015) 132-141. Our procedure works order-by-order in…
The Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT) provides a powerful, model-independent framework to explore deviations from the Standard Model (SM) by parametrising potential new physics through higher-dimensional operators. This thesis…
We construct a composite two-Higgs-doublet model (2HDM) within the context of dilaton effective field theory. This EFT describes the particle spectrum observed in lattice simulations of a near-conformal $SU(3)$ gauge field theory. A second…
Two Higgs doublet models (2HDM) provide the low energy effective field theory (EFT) description in many well motivated extensions of the Standard Model. It is therefore relevant to study their properties, as well as the theoretical…
The construction of heavy quark effective field theory (HqEFT) is extended to arbitrary order in both expansion parameters $\alpha_s$ and $1/m_q$. Matching conditions are discussed for the general case, and it is verified that this approach…
We find a general formula for the two-loop renormalization counterterms of a scalar quantum field theory with interactions containing up to two derivatives, extending 't~Hooft's one-loop result. The method can also be used for theories with…

We consider the 2 Higgs Doublet Model (2HDM) and compare two effective field theory (EFT) approaches to it, according to whether the heavy degrees of freedom are integrated out before (SMEFT) or after (HEFT) spontaneous symmetry breaking.…
