The renormalization of local dimension-4 operators containing a heavy and a light quark field at scales below the heavy-quark mass is discussed, using the formalism of the heavy-quark effective theory. The anomalous dimensions of these…
We consider a higher-derivative extension of QED modified by the addition of a gauge-invariant dimension-6 kinetic operator in the U(1) gauge sector. The Feynman diagrams at one-loop level are then computed. The modification in the spin-1…
We establish a direct connection between two fundamental topics: one in probability theory and one in quantum field theory. The first topic is the problem of pointwise multiplication of random Schwartz distributions which has been the…
The leading short-distance contributions to hadronic hard-scattering cross sections in the operator product expansion are described by twist-two quark and gluon operators. The anomalous dimensions of these operators determine the splitting…
We analyze by a renormalization method, the dynamics of a particle in a infinite square-well potential driven by an external monochromatic field. This method set up for Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom allows us to analyze…
Recently it was shown that the scaling dimension of the operator $\phi^n$ in $\lambda(\phi^*\phi)^2$ theory may be computed semi-classically at the Wilson-Fisher fixed point in $d=4-\epsilon$, for generic values of $\lambda n$ and this was…
We give an overview of recent developments in the computation of the anomalous dimension matrix of composite operators in non-forward kinematics. The elements of this matrix determine the scale dependence of non-perturbative parton…
We extend the low-energy effective field theory relevant for b to s transitions up to operators of mass-dimension 7 and compute the associated anomalous-dimension matrix. We then compare our findings to the known results for dimension 6…
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 study renormalization in a scalar field theory on the fuzzy sphere. The theory is realized by a matrix model, where the matrix size plays the role of a UV cutoff. We define correlation functions by using the Berezin symbol identified…
In the large-momentum effective field theory approach to parton physics, the matrix elements of non-local operators of quark and gluon fields, linked by straight Wilson lines in a spatial direction, are calculated in lattice quantum…
The Wilsonian renormalization group implies that an arbitrary four dimensional field theory with an ultraviolet cutoff is equivalent to a theory which is renormalizable by power counting at energy scales much below the cutoff. This applies…
We present the first results on the third order corrections to on-shell form factor (FF) of the Konishi operator in ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory using Feynman diagrammatic approach in modified dimensional reduction…
The field theoretic renormalization group and operator product expansion are applied to the Kazantsev--Kraichnan kinematic model for the magnetohydrodynamic turbulence. The anomalous scaling emerges as a consequence of the existence of…
We revisit the Next-to-Leading Order (two-loop) contributions to the Anomalous Dimensions of $\Delta F = 1$ four-quark operators in QCD. We devise a test for anomalous dimensions, that we regard as of general interest, and by means of which…
The rapidity anomalous dimension controls the scaling of transverse momentum dependent observables in the Sudakov region. In a conformal theory it is equivalent to the soft anomalous dimension, but in QCD this relation is broken by…
The aim of these lectures is to describe a construction, as self-contained as possible, of renormalized gauge theories. Following a suggestion of Polchinski, we base our analysis on the Wilson renormalization group method. After a…
Various aspects of the four point function for scalar fields in conformally invariant theories are analysed. This depends on an arbitrary function of two conformal invariants u,v. A recurrence relation for the function corresponding to the…
Nonlinearities in finite dimensions can be linearized by projecting them into infinite dimensions. Unfortunately, often the linear operator techniques that one would then use simply fail since the operators cannot be diagonalized. This…
We revisit the calculation of anomalies for global and gauge symmetries in the framework of the Covariant Derivative Expansion (CDE). Due to the presence of UV divergences, the result is an ambiguous quantity that depends on the…
