The light cone gauge is used frequently in string theory as well as gauge theories and gravitation. Loop integrals however have to be infrared regulated to remove spurious poles. The most popular and consistent of these infrared regulators…
The only calculations performed beyond one-loop level in the light-cone gauge make use of the Mandelstam-Leibbrandt (ML) prescription in order to circumvent the notorious gauge dependent poles. Recently we have shown that in the context of…
Quantization of gauge theories on characteristic surfaces and in the light-cone gauge is discussed. Implementation of the Mandelstam-Leibbrandt prescription for the spurious singularity is shown to require two distinct null planes, with…
A new symmetry-preserving loop regularization method proposed in \cite{ylw} is further investigated. It is found that its prescription can be understood by introducing a regulating distribution function to the proper-time formalism of…
It is shown that the quantization of the unphysical degrees of freedom, which leads to the Mandelstam--Leibbrandt prescription for the infrared spurious singularities in the continuum light cone gauge, does indeed suggest some quite natural…
A split dimensional regularization, which was introduced for the Coulomb gauge by Leibbrandt and Williams, is used to regularize the spurious singularities of Yang-Mills theory in the temporal gauge. Typical one-loop split dimensionally…
A Lorentz-covariant regularization scheme for effective field theories with an arbitrary number of propagating heavy and light particles is given. This regularization scheme leaves the low-energy analytic structure of Greens functions…
Mandelstam-Leibbrandt(ML) regularization of Very Special Relativity (VSR) amplitudes in momentum space depends on two fixed null vectors $n_\mu,\bar{n}_\mu$ besides external momenta. ML is known to preserve gauge invariance and naive power…
After some considerations and coincidences that appear when working in the light-cone gauge, in both the Mandelstam-Leibbrandt prescription and the covariantization method, we suspect that there must be some connection between them. This…
Dimensional regularization is arguably the most popular and efficient scheme for multi-loop calculations. Yet, when applied to chiral (gauge) theories like the Standard Model and its extensions, one is forced to deal with the infamous…
This is about new unexpected features of the Mandestam-Leibbrandt prescription found as applied to spacelike Wilson lines. The regularization parameter $ \omega $ in the M-L denominator for the spurious poles has to be kept throughout the…
We use the mathematical framework of loop quantum gravity (LQG) to study the quantization of three dimensional (Riemannian) gravity with positive cosmological constant (Lambda>0). We show that the usual regularization techniques (successful…
The different forms of the Hamiltonian formulations of linearized General Relativity/spin-two theories are discussed in order to show their similarities and differences. It is demonstrated that in the linear model, non-covariant…
New prescription for the singularities of light-cone gauge theories is suggested. The new prescription provides Green's function which is identical with and different from that of Mandelstam-Leibbrandt prescription at $d=4$ and $d=2$…
I formulate a deformation of the dimensional-regularization technique that is useful for theories where the common dimensional regularization does not apply. The Dirac algebra is not dimensionally continued, to avoid inconsistencies with…

Recently, we have remarked that the main effect of Quantum Gravity(QG) will be to modify the measure of integration of loop integrals in a renormalizable Quantum Field Theory. In the Standard Model this approach leads to definite…

Complete two-loop calculation of a dimensionally regularized Wilson loop with light-like segments is performed in the light-like axial gauge with the Mandelstam-Leibbrandt prescription for the gluon propagator. We find an expression which…
