We prove that the 1/N corrections to the baryon axial current matrix elements are proportional to their lowest order values. This implies that the first correction to axial current coupling constant ratios vanishes, and that the $SU(2N_f)$…
After briefly introducing the framework of QCD factorization for B-> M1 M2 in the language of the Soft-Collinear Effective Theory, we firstly address the recent efforts on higher-order radiative corrections in QCD factorization. Then we…
Analytic versions of QCD are those whose coupling alpha_s(Q^2) does not have the unphysical Landau singularities on the space-like axis (-q^2=Q^2 > 0). The coupling is analytic in the entire complex plane except the time-like axis (Q^2 <…
Following previous work by one of the authors [M.V.Altaisky, Unifying renormalization group and the continuous wavelet transform, Phys. Rev. D 93, 105043 (2016).], we develop a new approach to the renormalization group, where the effective…
We discuss non perturbative corrections to the Coulomb-like potential of heavy quarks at short distances. We consider both the standard framework provided by infrared renormalons and the assumption that confinement does not allow weak…
Radiative corrections arising from the axial coupling of charged fermions to a constant vector b_\mu can induce a Lorentz- and CPT-violating Chern-Simons term in the QED action. We calculate the exact one-loop correction to this term…
The new model for the QCD analytic running coupling, proposed recently, is extended to the timelike region. This running coupling naturally arises under unification of the analytic approach to QCD and the renormalization group (RG)…
We compute the renormalon ambiguity of the static potential, in the limit of a large number of flavors. An extrapolation of the QED result to QCD implies that the large distance behavior of the quark potential is arbitrary in perturbation…
We study the origin of non-analyticity in \alpha_s of a short-distance QCD observable to demonstrate that the infrared renormalons, the same-sign factorial growth of the perturbative expansion, is a universal phenomenon that originates…
I explicitly calculate the anomalous dimensions and splitting functions governing the Q^2 evolution of the parton densities and structure functions which result from the running coupling BFKL equation at LO, i.e. I perform a resummation in…
One-loop QCD corrections to the full gauge invariant set of electroweak diagrams describing the charged current processes $e^+ e^- \to u \bar d \mu \bar\nu_\mu$ (CC10), $e^+ e^- \to u \bar d e^- \bar\nu_e$ (CC20) and $e^+ e^- \to u \bar d s…
The connection between renormalons and power corrections is investigated for the typical infrared renormalon integral assuming the effective coupling constant has an infrared fixed point of an entirely perturbative origin. It is shown that…
We consider the leading one-chain term in a skeleton expansion for QCD observables and show that for energies Q^2>\Lambda^2, where Q^2=\Lambda^2 is the Landau pole in the coupling, the skeleton expansion result is equivalent to the standard…
The effects of quantum corrections to a conformally invariant scalar field theory on a curved manifold of positive constant curvature with boundary are considered in the context of a renormalisation procedure. The renormalisation of the…
The mathematical properties of the new analytic running coupling (NARC) in QCD are investigated. This running coupling naturally arises under ``analytization'' of the renormalization group equation. One of the crucial points in our…
We introduce a more general set of kinematic renormalization schemes than the original momentum (MOM) subtraction schemes of Celmaster and Gonsalves. These new schemes will depend on a parameter $\omega$ which tags the external momentum of…
We discuss some recent developments in the evaluation of the QCD corrections to $\Delta\rho$, their interpretation, an estimate of the theoretical error, and its effect on electroweak physics.
The relativistic correction to the QCD static inter-quark potential at O(1/m) is investigated nonperturbatively for the first time by using lattice Monte Carlo QCD simulations. The correction is found to be comparable with the Coulombic…
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…
The QCD coupling, $\alpha_s$, is not a physical observable since it depends on conventions related to the renormalization procedure. Here we discuss a redefinition of the coupling where changes of scheme are parametrised by a single…
