We present results for higher order perturbative corrections to Compton scattering in the generalized Bjorken kinematics. The approach we have used is based on the combination of two techniques: conformal operator product expansion on the…
The present calculations in perturbative QCD reach the order $\alpha_s^4$ for several correlators calculated to five loops, and the huge computational difficulties make unlikely the full six-loop calculation in the near future. This…
Relation between the infrared renormalons, the Borel resummation prescriptions, and the analyticity structure of Green functions in perturbative QCD (pQCD) is investigated. A specific recently suggested Borel resummation prescription…
Perturbation series in QCD are generally asymptotic and suffer from so-called infrared renormalon ambiguities. In the context of the standard operator product expansion in MS-bar these ambiguities are compensated by matrix elements of…
We present a generalisation of our previous approach of a renormalon-motivated resummation of the QCD observables. Previously it was applied to the spacelike observables whose perturbation expansion was $D(Q^2) = a(Q^2) + O(a^2)$, where…
We derive a compact expression for the Borel sum of a QCD amplitude in terms of the inverse Mellin transform of the corresponding Borel function. The result allows us to investigate the momentum-plane analyticity properties of the…
We present the attempt to study the problem of the estimates of higher-order perturbative corrections to physical quantities in the Euclidean region. Our considerations are based on the application of the scheme-invariant methods, namely…
We examine the QCD perturbation series at large orders, for different values of the 'large $\beta_0$ renormalization scale'. It is found that if we let this scale grow exponentially with the order, the divergent series can be turned into an…
We use improved truncated Operator Product Expansion (OPE) for the Adler function, involving two types of terms with dimension $D=6$, in the double-pinched Borel-Laplace Sum Rules and Finite Energy Sum Rules for the V+A channel strangeless…
We perform numerical analysis of double-pinched Borel-Laplace QCD sum rules for the strangeless semihadronic $\tau$-decay data. The $D=0$ contribution to the theoretical contour integral in the sum rules is evaluated by the (truncated)…
Recently, we have developed a formalism to evaluate QCD loop diagrams with a single virtual gluon using a running coupling constant at the vertices. This corresponds to an all-order resummation of certain terms (the so-called renormalon…
We consider the further development of the formalism of the estimates of higher-order perturbative corrections in the Euclidean region, which is based on the application of the scheme-invariant methods, namely the principle of minimal…
The difference between fixed-order (FO) and contour-improved (CI) formulations of QCD perturbation theory limits the precision of the strong coupling determined from the hadronic decay of the $\tau$ lepton. Recently, several attempts to…
The basis of renormalon calculus is briefly discussed. The method is applied to study QCD predictions for three sum rules of deep-inelastic scattering, namely for the Gross-Llewellyn Smith, Bjorken polarized and unpolarized sum rules. It is…
The infrared freezing of observables is known to hold at fixed orders of perturbative QCD if the Minkowskian quantities are defined through the analytic continuation from the Euclidean region. In a recent paper [1] it is claimed that…
Ultraviolet renormalons, contrary to their infrared counterparts, lead to a universal contribution to the large-order behaviour of perturbative expansions in QCD. In this letter, we determine nature of the leading ultraviolet renormalon…
The `renormalon' or `dispersive' method for estimating non-perturbative corrections to QCD observables is reviewed. The corrections are power-suppressed, i.e. of the form $A/Q^p$ where $Q$ is the hard process momentum scale. The renormalon…
The conventional series in powers of the coupling in perturbative QCD have zero radius of convergence and fail to reproduce the singularity of the QCD correlators like the Adler function at $\alpha_s=0$. Using the technique of conformal…
We present in detail a new systematic method which can be used to automatically eliminate the renormalization scheme and scale ambiguities in perturbative QCD predictions at all orders. We show that all of the nonconformal \beta-dependent…
Using the renormalon calculus, we study the asymptotic behavior of the perturbative expansion of the hard-scattering kernels entering the QCD factorization formula for the nonleptonic weak decays B->D M, where M is a light meson. In the…
