This article aims to give a short introduction into Hopf-algebraic aspects of renormalization, enjoying growing attention for more than a decade by now. As most available literature is concerned with the minimal subtraction scheme, we like…
We discuss the dependence of running couplings on the choice of regularization method in a general softly-broken N=1 supersymmetric theory. Regularization by dimensional reduction respects supersymmetry, but standard dimensional…
We present methods for evaluating the Feynman parameter integrals associated with the pentagon diagram in 4-2 epsilon dimensions, along with explicit results for the integrals with all masses vanishing or with one non-vanishing external…
Building on our proposal in arXiv:2405.06629, we present in detail the construction of the extended phase space for Yang-Mills at null infinity, containing the asymptotic symmetries and the charges responsible for sub$^n$-leading soft…
Most renormalizable quantum field theories can be rephrased in terms of Feynman diagrams that only contain dressed irreducible 2-, 3-, and 4-point vertices. These irreducible vertices in turn can be solved from equations that also only…
We consider regularisation of a Yang-Mills theory by Dimensional Reduction (DRED). In particular, the anomalous dimensions of fermion masses and gauge coupling are computed to four-loop order. We put special emphasis on the treatment of…
We perform Monte Carlo calculation of correlation functions in 4d N=4 super Yang-Mills theory on R*S^3 in the planar limit. In order to circumvent the well-known problem of lattice SUSY, we adopt the idea of a novel large-N reduction, which…
Let M be an n X n symmetric cost matrix. Assume that D is a derangement in M, i.e.,a set of disjoint cycles consisting of edges that contains all of the n points of M. The modified Floyd-Warshall algorithm applied to (D')^-1(M^-)A^- (where…

This paper discusses the methods and the results used in an accompanying paper describing the matching of effective chiral Lagrangians in dimensional and lattice regularizations. We present methods to compute 2-loop massless sunset diagrams…
In this paper, we give a detailed account of the algorithm outlined in [1] for Feynman integral reduction and $\varepsilon$-factorised differential equations. The algorithm consists of two steps. In the first step, we use a new geometric…
The simplest minimal subtraction method for massive {\lambda}{\phi}4 scalar field theory is presented. We utilize the one-particle irreducible vertex parts framework to deal only with the primitive divergent ones that can be renormalized…
The popular cubic smoothing spline estimate of a regression function arises as the minimizer of the penalized sum of squares $\sum_j(Y_j - {\mu}(t_j))^2 + {\lambda}\int_a^b [{\mu}"(t)]^2 dt$, where the data are $t_j,Y_j$, $j=1,..., n$. The…
Standard integration-by-parts (IBP) reduction methods typically yield Feynman integral bases where the reduction of some integrals gives rise to coefficients singular as the dimensional regulator $\epsilon\rightarrow 0$. These singular…
We construct a family of triangle-ladder diagrams which may be calculated by making use of Belokurov-Usyukina loop reduction technique in d = 4 -2e dimensions. The main idea of the approach proposed in the present paper consists in…
The general method of the reduction in the number of coupling parameters is discussed. Using renormalization group invariance, theories with several independent couplings are related to a set of theories with a single coupling parameter.…
