Some recent all-loop results on the renormalization of supersymmetric theories are summarized and reviewed. In particular, we discuss how it is possible to construct expressions which do not receive quantum corrections in all orders for…
We study a self-interacting scalar $\varphi^4$ theory on the $d$-dimensional noncommutative torus. We determine, for the particular cases $d=2$ and $d=4$, the counterterms required by one-loop renormalization. We discuss higher loops in two…
We set up a bootstrap problem for renormalization. Working in the massless four-dimensional O$(N)$ model and the $\lambda \phi^4$ theory, we prove that unitarity leads to all-loop recursion relations between coefficients of scattering…
The anomalous dimension for heavy-heavy-light effective theory operators describing nuclear beta decay is computed through three-loop order in the static limit. The result at order $Z^2\alpha^3$ corrects a previous result in the literature.…

Under certain assumptions and independent of the instantons, we show that the logarithm expansion of dimensional regularization in quantum field theory needs a nonperturbative completion to have a renormalization-group flow valid at all…
We study renormalization group flow in a non-local version of quantum electrodynamics (QED). We determine the regime in which the theory flows to a local theory in the infrared and study a possible UV completion of four-dimensional QED. In…
We study the renormalization of operators of the type ${\bar h_{v'}} \Gamma G^{\mu\nu} h_v$ in the heavy-quark effective theory (HQET). We construct the combinations of such operators that are renormalized multiplicatively, and calculate…
The renormalization group is used to improve the effective potential of massive ${\rm O}(N)$ symmetric $\phi^4$ theory. Explicit results are given at the two-loop level.
Leading logarithms (LLs) in massless non-renormalizable effective field theories (EFTs) can be computed with the help of non-linear recurrence relations. These recurrence relations follow from the fundamental requirements of unitarity,…
We discuss a new class of non-renormalization theorems in N=4 and N=2 Super-Yang-Mills theory, obtained by using a superspace which makes a lower dimensional subgroup of the full supersymmetry manifest. Certain Wilson loops (and Wilson…
We provide the renormalization constants of the axial current operators, both singlet and non-singlet, in dimensional regularization up to four-loop order in QCD, determined using the off-shell Ward-Takahashi identity for an axial current…
The Lagrangian for a non-abelian gauge theory with an $SU(N_{\! c})$ symmetry and a linear covariant gauge fixing is constructed in eight dimensions. The renormalization group functions are computed at one loop with the special cases of…
Large-$N$ renormalization group equations for one- and two-matrix models are derived. The exact renormalization group equation involving infinitely many induced interactions can be rewritten in a form that has a finite number of coupling…
Explicit two-loop calculations in noncommutative $\phi^4_4$ theory are presented. It is shown that the model is two-loop renormalizable.
We show that the distributional nature of soft theorems requires the soft limit expansion to take priority over the regulator expansion of Feynman loop integrals. We start the study of soft graviton theorems at loop level from this…
The renormalization of higher-dimensional operators in quantum field theory is essential for phenomenological analyses in particle physics, and plays a significant role in the study of critical phenomena. We present a framework for…
We apply the method of graphical functions that was recently extended to six dimensions for scalar theories, to $\phi^3$ theory and compute the $\beta$ function, the wave function anomalous dimension as well as the mass anomalous dimension…
