We propose a new locally smeared operator product expansion to decompose nonlocal operators in terms of a basis of smeared operators. The smeared operator product expansion formally connects nonperturbative matrix elements determined…
There have been some long-standing puzzles related to the Coulomb solutions of the Klein-Gordon and Dirac equations, namely how to understand the physics underlying the weakly divergent near-the-origin behavior of the $S$-wave wave…
We discuss the strong-coupling expansion in Euclidean field theory. In a formal representation for the Schwinger functional, we treat the off-diagonal terms of the Gaussian factor as a perturbation about the remaining terms of the…
In recent years, energy correlators have emerged as a powerful tool to explore the field theoretic structure of strong interactions at particle colliders. In this Letter we initiate a novel study of the non-perturbative power corrections to…
Properly separating and subtracting renormalons in the framework of the operator product expansion (OPE) is a way to realize high precision computation of QCD effects in high energy physics. We propose a new method (FTRS method), which…
Two-point correlation functions of spin operators in the minimal models ${{\cal M}}_{p,p'}$ perturbed by the field $\Phi_{13}$ are studied in the framework of conformal perturbation theory. The first-order corrections for the structure…
We calculate the three-loop Wilson coefficients of all physically relevant dimension-four operators, i.e. $G_{\mu\nu}^a G^{a,\mu\nu}$, $m_i\bar q_j q_j$ and $m_i m_j m_k^2$, in the short-distance expansion of the time-ordered product of a…
The Polchinski version of the exact renormalisation group equations is applied to multicritical fixed points, which are present for dimensions between two and four, for scalar theories using both the local potential approximation and its…
The operator product expansion of current correlators at short distances, and the notion of QCD-hadron duality are the cornerstone of QCD sum rules. The extension of this programme to $T \neq 0$ is discussed, together with applications to…
In this paper we study the renormalization of the product of two operators $O_1=-\frac{1}{4} G^{\mu \nu}G_{\mu \nu}$ in QCD. An insertion of two such operators $O_1(x)O_1(0)$ into a Greens function produces divergent contact terms for…
In this note we introduce some nonlinear extremal nonlocal operators that approximate the, so called, truncated Laplacians. For these operators we construct representation formulas that lead to the construction of what, with an abuse of…
Extending density functional theory (DFT) to an {\it ab initio} orbital functional theory (OFT) requires new methodology for nonlocal exchange and correlation potentials. This paper describes such modifications to a standard Dirac-Slater…

The self-interaction force of dislocation curves in metals depends on the local arrangement of the atoms and on the nonlocal interaction between dislocation curve segments. While these nonlocal segment-segment interactions can be accurately…
We prove the existence of the operator product expansion (OPE) in Euclidean Yang-Mills theories as a short-distance expansion, to all orders in perturbation theory. We furthermore show that the Ward identities of the underlying gauge theory…
