We show that in e-e+ colliders at energies above the Z-peak, the process e-e+ to b b(bar) becomes very sensitive to the presence of residual New Physics (NP) effects described by the dim=6 SU(3)*SU(2)*U(1) gauge invariant operators O(qW),…
At zero temperature, the Lorentz invariance is strictly preserved in three-dimensional quantum electrodynamics. This property ensures that the velocity of massless fermions is not renormalized by the gauge interaction. At finite…
We study radiative corrections to third generation scalar fermions into gauge bosons $Z$ and $W^\pm$. We include both SUSY-QCD, QED and full electroweak corrections. It is found that the electroweak corrections can be of the same order as…

We calculate the full electroweak one-loop corrections to the decay of the CP-odd Higgs boson A^0 into scalar fermions in the minimal supersymmetric extension of the Standard Model. For this purpose many parameters of the MSSM have to be…

We extend the geometric framework of field-space covariance for loop computations, thereby unifying the treatment of scalars, fermions, and gauge bosons in effective field theories. This allows us to derive a manifestly covariant formula…
We discuss the application of two-particle-irreducible (2PI) functional techniques to gauge theories, focusing on the issue of non-perturbative renormalization. In particular, we show how to renormalize the photon and fermion propagators of…
In this contribution we present recent four-loop results for the muon anomalous magnetic moment based on analytic methods. In particular, fermionic corrections involving two or more closed electron loops or at least one tau lepton loop are…
We describe the new version of the Monte Carlo event generator WOPPER for four fermion production through W-pairs including resummed leading logarithmic QED radiative corrections. Among the new features included are singly resonant…
It is possible to place direct constraints on WW-photon and WWZ couplings by studying their tree-level contributions to the process e^+e^- ---> W^+W^-. However, these couplings also contribute at the loop level to e^+e^- ---> f fbar…
The complete two-loop electroweak fermionic corrections to the effective leptonic weak mixing angle, sin^2(theta_eff), are now available. Here we shortly present the methods applied and illustrate the implications on indirect prediction for…
Asymmetry measurements in $e^+e^-\to\tau^+\tau^-$ constitute a promising avenue to obtain competitive constraints on the $\tau$ dipole moments, the anomalous magnetic moment $a_\tau$ and the electric dipole moment $d_\tau$, especially, once…

Simulations of supersymmetric field theories on the lattice with (spontaneously) broken supersymmetry suffer from a fermion sign problem related to the vanishing of the Witten index. We propose a novel approach which solves this problem in…
