We give a proof of perturbative renormalizability of SU(2) Yang--Mills theory in four-dimensional Euclidean space which is based on the Flow Equations of the renormalization group. The main motivation is to present a proof which does not…
The consistent description of unstable particles, renormalons, or other Schwinger--Dyson-type of solutions within the framework of perturbative gauge field theories necessitates the definition and resummation of off-shell Green's functions,…
We determine the renormalization constants for flavor non-singlet fermion bilinear operators of M\"obius domain-wall fermions. The renormalization condition is imposed on the correlation functions in the coordinate space, such that the…
We discuss properties of local Polyakov loops in the deconfinement transition of SU(3) lattice gauge theory at finite temperature using the fixed scale approach. In particular we study spatial clusters where local Polyakov loops have phases…
We discuss renormalization of the non-relativistic three-body problem with short-range forces. The problem becomes non-perturbative at momenta of the order of the inverse of the two-body scattering length, and an infinite number of graphs…
For the general renormalizable ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric gauge theory we investigate renormalization of the Faddeev--Popov ghosts using the higher covariant derivative regularization. First, we find the two-loop anomalous dimension…
We investigate the static interquark potential for the three-quark system in SU(3) lattice gauge theory at zero temperature by using Monte Carlo simulations. We extract the potential from the correlation function of the three Polyakov…
For theories with multiple couplings we construct simple expressions for the four-dimensional (or, in general, integer-dimensional) renormalization constants assuming that all divergences are logarithmical. These expressions allow relating…
We describe how the general mechanism of partial deconfinement applies to large-$N$ QCD and the partially-deconfined phase inevitably appears between completely-confined and completely-deconfined phases. Furthermore, we propose how the…
In this paper the building blocks for the two-loop renormalization of the Standard Model are introduced with a comprehensive discussion of the special vertices induced in the Lagrangian by a particular diagonalization of the neutral sector…
We study the Polyakov loop correlator in the weak coupling expansion and show how the perturbative series re-exponentiates into singlet and adjoint contributions. We calculate the order $g^7$ correction to the Polyakov loop correlator in…
The Regge-Gribov model of the pomeron and odderon in the non-trivial transverse space is studied by the renormalization group technique. The single loop approximation is adopted. Five real fixed points are found and the high-energy…
I review the strategies which have been developped in recent years to solve the non-perturbative renormalization problem in lattice field theories. Although the techniques are general, the focus will be on applications to lattice QCD. I…
We explore the properties of a recently proposed background independent exact renormalization group approach to gauge theories and gravity. In the process we also develop the machinery needed to study it rigorously. The proposal comes with…
We present a study of the free energy of parameterized Polyakov loops P in SU(2) and SU(3) lattice gauge theory as a function of the parameters that characterize P. We explore temperatures below and above the deconfinement transition, and…
We study two-point correlation functions of chiral/anti-chiral operators in SU(N) $\mathcal{N}=2$ gauge theories with massless hyper-multiplets in a representation $\mathcal{R}$ associated with a non-vanishing $\beta$-function. Using…
We study the mixing of the Gluino-Glue operator in ${\cal N}$=1 Supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory (SYM), both in dimensional regularization and on the lattice. We calculate its renormalization, which is not only multiplicative, due to the…
We discuss a specific cut-off effect which appears in applying the non-perturbative RI/MOM scheme to compute the renormalization constants. To illustrate the problem a Dirac operator satisfying the Ginsparg-Wilson relation is used, but the…
In a lattice gauge-Higgs unification scenario using a Z_2-orbifolded extra-dimension, we find a new global symmetry in a case of SU(2) bulk gauge symmetry. It is a global symmetry on sites in a fixed point with respect to Z_2-orbifolding,…
Using the infrared dispersion relation of the on shell gluon, we calculate the renormalisation of the the anisotropy to one loop in perturbation theory for lattice Yang-Mills theories, including the Wilson action and actions with Symanzik…
