We provide the $\bar{\mathrm{MS}}$ factor of the renormalization constant of the singlet axial-current operator in dimensional regularization at $\mathcal{O}(\alpha_s^5)$ in perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD). The result is obtained…
The viability of the Non-Perturbative Renormalisation (NPR) method of the Rome/Southampton group is studied, for the first time, in the context of domain wall fermions. The procedure is used to extract the renormalisation coefficients of…
Multivariate renormalisation techniques are implemented in order to build, study and then renormalise at the poles, branched zeta functions associated with trees. For this purpose, we first prove algebraic results and develop analytic…
We perform an all-orders resummation of the QCD Adler D-function for the vector correlator, in which the portion of perturbative coefficients involving the leading power of b, the first beta-function coefficient, is resummed. To avoid a…
Renormalization factors for bilinear and four-quark operators with the Kogut-Susskind fermion action are perturbatively calculated to one-loop order in the general covariant gauge. Results are presented both for gauge invariant and…
We present renormalization factors for the bilinear operators obtained using the non-perturbative renormalization method (NPR) in the RI-MOM scheme with improved staggered fermions on the MILC asqtad lattices ($N_f = 2+1$). We use the MILC…
In the 't Hooft-Veltman dimensional regularization scheme it is necessary to introduce finite counterterms to satisfy chiral Ward identities. It is a non-trivial task to evaluate these counterterms even at two loops. We suggest the use of…
We report on an ongoing non-perturbative computation of RI-MOM scheme renormalization constants for the lattice action with four dynamical flavours currently in use by ETMC. For this goal dedicated simulations with four degenerate sea quark…
We compute the renormalization factors of four-quark operators needed for the study of $K\to\pi\pi$ decay in the $\Delta I=3/2$ channel. We evaluate the Z-factors at a low energy scale ($\mu_0=1.145 \GeV$) using four different…
In the context of image processing, given a $k$-th order, homogeneous and linear differential operator with constant coefficients, we study a class of variational problems whose regularizing terms depend on the operator. Precisely, the…
We present results of a lattice QCD application of a coordinate space renormalization scheme for the extraction of renormalization constants for flavour non-singlet bilinear quark operators. The method consists in the analysis of the…
I consider the fulfillment of conservation laws and Ward identities in the one- and two-loop functional renormalization group approach. It is shown that in a one-particle irreducible scheme of this approach Ward identities are fulfilled…
Self-consistent new renormalization group flow equations for an O(N)-symmetric scalar theory are approximated in next-to-leading order of the derivative expansion. The Wilson-Fisher fixed point in three dimensions is analyzed in detail and…
Coupled fermionic chains are usually described by an effective model written in terms of bonding and anti-bonding spinless fields with linear dispersion in the vicinities of the respective Fermi points. We derive for the first time exact…
We propose a treatment of $\gamma^5$ in dimensional regularization which is based on an algebraically consistent extension of the Breitenlohner-Maison-'t Hooft-Veltman (BMHV) scheme; we define the corresponding minimal renormalization…
Our aim is to compute the lower moments of the unpolarized and polarized deep-inelastic structure functions of the nucleon on the lattice. The theoretical basis of the calculation is the operator product expansion. To construct operators…
The chirally rotated Schr\"odinger functional ($\chi$SF) renders the mechanism of automatic $O(a)$ improvement compatible with the Schr\"odinger functional (SF) formulation. Here we report on the determination to 1-loop order in…
We extend the OPE-based renormalization algorithm to composite operators with operator mixing, focusing on scalar operators in $\phi^4$ and $\phi^3$ models. Using the OPE of operators with a fundamental field, we show that the $Z$-factors…
We propose a renormalization scheme that can be simply implemented on the lattice. It consists of the temporal moments of two-point and three-point functions calculated with finite valence quark mass. The scheme is confirmed to yield a…
