The renormalization of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model (MSSM) is presented. We describe symmetry identities that constitute a framework in which the MSSM is completely characterized and renormalizability can be proven.…
Well-known and newly developed renormalization schemes for $\tan\beta$ are analyzed in view of three desirable properties: gauge independence, process independence, and numerical stability in perturbation theory. Arguments are provided that…
Renormalization schemes for tan(beta) are discussed in view of their gauge dependence. It is shown that several common renormalization schemes lead to a gauge-dependent definition of tan(beta), whereas two classes of gauge-independent…
We point out that, contrary to general belief, generic supersymmetric models are not technically unnatural in the limit of very large values of the parameter tan(beta) when radiative corrections are properly included. Rather, an upper limit…
We give an extensive description of the renormalisation of the Higgs sector of the minimal supersymmetric model in SloopS. SloopS is an automatised code for the computation of one-loop processes in the MSSM. In this paper, the first in a…

For large values of tan(beta) interesting effects arise in the MSSM due to the enhancement of down-quark self-energies. These effects are well-studied within the decoupling limit, i.e. in the limit of supersymmetric masses far above the…
We study the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with Minimal Flavour Violation for the case of a large parameter tanbeta and arbitrary values of the supersymmetric mass parameters. We derive several resummation formulae for…
We study, in the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model, the electroweak symmetry breaking conditions obtained from the one-loop effective potential. Novel model-independent lower and upper bounds on $\tan \beta$, involving the other free…

We demonstrate, through the study of the one-loop effective potential in the MSSM, the existence of fully model-independent lower and upper theoretical bounds on $\tan \beta$. We give their general analytic form and illustrate some of their…
We construct a supersymmetric model based on the semi-simple gauge group $SU(3)_c \times SU(3)_L \times SU(3)_R$ with the relation $tan\beta \simeq m_t/m_b$ automatically arising from its structure. The model below a scale $\sim 10^{16}$…
Renormalization of two-loop divergent corrections to the vacuum expectation values (v_1, v_2) of the two Higgs doublets in the minimal supersymmetric standard model, and their ratio $\tan\beta=v_2/v_1$, is discussed for general R_{\xi}…
We determine the three-loop $\overline{\text{MS}}$ quartic $ \beta $-function for the most general renormalisable four-dimensional theories. A general parametrization of the $ \beta $-function is compared to known $ \beta $-functions for…
The renormalization of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model is discussed. In particular we focus on the soft-supersymmetry breaking sector of the MSSM and comment on non-renormalization theorems.
The renormalization of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model of electroweak interactions is presented to all orders of perturbation theory using the algebraic method. Special attention is directed to the issues of soft supersymmetry…

We evaluate the finite 1-loop threshold corrections, proportional to $tan\beta$, to the down quark mass matrix. These result in corrections to down quark masses and to Cabibbo-Kobayashi-Maskawa [CKM] matrix elements. The corrections to CKM…
The large-beta_0 limit of QCD is discussed, with the emphasize on simple technical methods of calculating various quantities at the order 1/\beta_0. Many examples, mainly from heavy quark physics, are considered. Some QCD results based on…
