We compute the relation between the pole quark mass and the minimally subtracted quark mass in the framework of QCD applying dimensional reduction as a regularization scheme. Special emphasis is put on the evanescent couplings and the…
We compute the three-loop beta functions of long-range multi-scalar models with general quartic interactions. The long-range nature of the models is encoded in a kinetic term with a Laplacian to the power $0<\zeta<1$, rendering the…
We present the complete 2-loop renormalisation group equations of the superpotential parameters for the supersymmetric standard model including the full set of R-parity violating couplings. We use these equations to do a study of (a) gauge…
We present the full two-loop $\beta$-functions for the minimal supersymmetric standard model couplings, extended to include R-parity violating couplings through explicit R-parity violation.
The non-perturbative functional renormalization group equation depends on the choice of a regulator function, whose main properties are a "coarse-graining scale" $k$ and an overall dimensionless amplitude $a$. In this paper we shall discuss…
The consequences of assuming the third-generation Yukawa couplings are all large and comparable are studied in the context of the minimal supersymmetric extension of the standard model. General aspects of the RG evolution of the parameters,…
The physics of supersymmetry is reviewed from the perspective of physics at ever increasing energies. Starting from the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model at the electroweak scale, we proceed to higher energies seeking…
We consider variation of coupling strengths and mass ratios in and beyond the Standard Model, in the light of various mechanisms of mass generation. In four-dimensional unified models, variations in charged particle thresholds, light quark…
Superfields provide a compact description of supersymmetry representations. Loop corrections with superfield formalism are simpler and much more manageable than calculation in terms of component fields. In this paper we calculate the…
Symmetry restoration is usually understood as a renormalization group induced phenomenon. In this context, the issue of whether one-loop RG equations can be trusted in predicting symmetry restoration has recently been the subject of much…
In this paper, I show a close connection between renormalization and a generalization of the Dynkin operator in terms of logarithmic derivations. The geometric $\beta$ function, which describes the dependence of a Quantum Field Theory on an…
We introduce a renormalization procedure which allows us to study in a unified and concise way different properties of the irrational rotations on the unit circle $\beta \mapsto \set{\alpha+\beta}$, $\alpha \in \R\setminus \Q$. In…
The possibility is discussed that existence of renormalon singularities is not the internal property of the specific field theory but depends on the renormalization scheme.
The contribution to the $\rho$--parameter of the quark--Higgs sector of the supersymmetric standard model is computed non--perturbatively using the large--$\nf$ expansion for the case tan$\beta$=0. An explicit formula is found for the…
The appearance of multiple zeta values in anomalous dimensions and $\beta$-functions of renormalizable quantum field theories has given evidence towards a motivic interpretation of these renormalization group functions. In this paper we…
We study analytically the general features of electroweak symmetry breaking in the context of the Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model extended by one Higgs singlet. The exact analytical forms of the renormalization group evolutions of the…
We study various modifications to the minimal models of gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking. We argue that, under reasonable assumptions, the structure of the messenger sector is rather restricted. We investigate the effects of possible…
The complete set of two-loop renormalization group equations in general gauge field theories is presented. This includes the \beta functions of parameters with and without a mass dimension.
The Minimal Supersymmetric Standard Model with gauge mediated supersymmetry breaking and trilinear R-parity violation is applied to the description of neutrinoless double beta decay. A detailed study of limits on the parameter space coming…
We investigate the phase structure of non-commutative scalar field theories and find evidence for ordered phases which break translation invariance. A self-consistent one-loop analysis indicates that the transition into these ordered phases…
