We present a diagrammatic formulation of recently-revived covariant functional approaches to one-loop matching from an ultraviolet (UV) theory to a low-energy effective field theory. Various terms following from a covariant derivative…
Leptoquarks provide viable solutions to the flavour anomalies, i.e. they can explain the tensions between the measurements and the Standard Model predictions of the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon as well as $b\to s\ell^+\ell^-$ and…
We study the sensitivity to physics beyond the standard model of precise top-quark pair production measurements at future lepton colliders. A global effective-field-theory approach is employed, including all dimension-six operators of the…

The Wilson (exact) renormalization group equations are used to determine the evolution of a general low energy N=1 supersymmetric action containing a U(1) gauge vector multiplet and a neutral chiral multiplet. The effective theory evolves…

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…
By treating the vacuum as a medium, H. Euler and W. Heisenberg estimated the non-linear interactions between photons well before the advent of Quantum Electrodynamics. In a modern language, their result is often presented as the archetype…
We consider all the dimension 6 operators as well as some simple extensions of the standard model that give new contributions to neutrino interactions with matter. Such interactions are usually parametrized by $\epsilon_{\alpha \beta}$,…
Signs of new physics are probed in the context of an Effective Field Theory using events containing one or more top quarks in association with additional leptons. Data consisting of proton-proton collisions at a center-of-mass energy of…
The $U(3)^5$ symmetry within the SMEFT framework restricts the inclusion of only fully flavor-conserving operators at dimension six. This proceeding presents a global analysis of the SMEFT under this assumption. We provide global…
We present a systematic method for determining the two-loop effective Lagrangian resulting from integrating out a set of heavy particles in an ultraviolet scalar theory. We prove that the matching coefficients are entirely determined from…
We consider a rather minimal extension of the Standard Model involving just one extra particle, namely a single $SU(2)_L$ singlet scalar $S^{++}$ and its antiparticle $S^{--}$. We propose a model independent effective operator, which yields…
Mapping UV theories onto low energy effective descriptions is a procedure known as matching. The last decade has seen tremendous progress in the development of new tools for efficiently performing matching calculations, by relying on…
We compute the leading-logarithmic correction to the neutrino mass matrix in the Standard Model effective field theory (SMEFT) to dimension seven. In the limit of negligible lepton and down-type quark Yukawa couplings, it receives…
