We present the matching condition for the strong coupling contant alpha_s at a heavy quark threshold to four loops in the modified minimal subtraction scheme. Our results lead to further decrease of the theoretical uncertainty of the…
We study the higher-order corrections to structure functions in inclusive deep-inelastic scattering (DIS) in massless perturbative QCD, in the context of the conjectured absence of even-n values of the Riemann zeta-function zeta_n, i.e., of…
We use conformal symmetry to calculate the NNLO anomalous dimension matrix (three loops) for flavor-singlet axial-vector QCD operators for spin $N \le 8$ from a set of gauge-invariant two-point correlation functions. Combining this result…
Charm final states in deep inelastic scattering constitute $\sim 25%$ of the inclusive cross-section at small $x$ as measured at HERA. These data can reveal important information on the charm and gluon structure of the nucleon if they are…
We study the fixed point that controls the IR dynamics of QED in $d = 4 - 2\epsilon$. We derive the scaling dimensions of four-fermion and bilinear operators beyond leading order in $\epsilon$-expansion. For the four-fermion operators, this…
We have studied the physical evolution kernels for nine non-singlet observables in deep-inelastic scattering (DIS), semi-inclusive e^+e^-annihilation and the Drell-Yan (DY) process, and for the flavour-singlet case of the photon- and…
I explicitly calculate the anomalous dimensions and splitting functions governing the Q^2 evolution of the parton densities and structure functions which result from the running coupling BFKL equation at LO, i.e. I perform a resummation in…
The infrared dynamics of $2+1$ dimensional quantum electrodynamics (QED$_3$) with a large number $N$ of fermion flavors is governed by an interacting CFT that can be studied in the $1/N$ expansion. We use the $1/N$ expansion to calculate…
Using the Dyson-Schwinger approach we investigate Landau gauge QCD with a relatively large number of chiral quark flavours. A self-consistent treatment on the propagator level enables us to study unquenching effects via the quark loop…
We have computed the even-$N$ moments $N \leq 20$ of the gluon-to-quark splitting function $P_{\rm qg}$ at the fourth order of perturbative QCD via the renormalization of off-shell operator matrix elements. Our results, derived analytically…
We have computed the complete next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) contributions to the splitting functions governing the evolution of unpolarized parton densities in perturbative QCD. Our results agree with all partial results available in…
The QCD-coupling is a necessary input in the computation of many observables, and the parametric error on input parameters can be a dominant source of uncertainty. The coupling can be extracted by comparing high order perturbative…
We present numerical results for non-compact three-dimensional QED for numbers of flavors N_f=1 and N_f=4.In particular, we address the issue of whether chiral symmetry is spontaneously broken in the continuum limit, and obtain a positive…
The small x behaviour of the non-singlet structure function is studied within the double logarithmic approximation (DLA) of perturbative QCD. Since there is neither $k_T$ nor $\theta$ ordering in the ladder Feynman graphs, the predicted…
We report on the first calculation of the structure function g_1 in polarised deep-inelastic scattering to the third order in massless perturbative QCD. The calculation follows the dispersive approach already used for the corresponding…
The results of LO {\it Fixed point} QCD (FP-QCD) analysis of the CCFR data for the nucleon structure function $~xF_3(x,Q^2)~$ are presented. The predictions of FP-QCD, in which $~\alpha_{s}(Q^2)~$ tends to a nonzero coupling constant…
We obtain functional central limit theorems for both discrete time expressions of the form $1/\sqrt{N}\sum_{n=1}^{[Nt]}(F(X(q_1(n)),\ldots, X(q_{\ell}(n)))-\bar{F})$ and similar expressions in the continuous time where the sum is replaced…
A brief summary is given on recent determinations of $\Lambda_{\rm QCD}$ and $\alpha_s(M_Z^2)$ from deeply inelastic structure functions.
Both for quark flavor asymmetry and valence, we consider the anomalous dimension of the non-singlet twist-two quark operator of arbitrary Lorentz spin N at four loops in SU(nc) color gauge theory and present its term proportional to zeta(3)…
We consider the issue of an accurate description of the evolution of the non-singlet structure function moments $M_n(Q)$ near heavy quark threshold. To this aim we propose a simple modification of the standard massless \MSbar scheme…
