The construction of heavy quark effective field theory (HqEFT) is extended to arbitrary order in both expansion parameters $\alpha_s$ and $1/m_q$. Matching conditions are discussed for the general case, and it is verified that this approach…

We point out that there exist two different formulations of the Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET). One formulation of HQET was mostly developed at Harvard and involves the use of the equation of motion to eliminate the small components of…
We show that by combining the static heavy quark action with the Neuberger action for the light quark, the renormalisation of the heavy-light bilinear and four-quark operators, computed on the lattice, becomes highly simplified: all the…

We present a new calculation of the renormalized HQET Lagrangian at order O(1/m_Q^2) and discuss the consequences of the BRST invariance of QCD and the reparameterization invariance of HQET. Our result corrects earlier, conflicting…
We compute the one-loop anomalous dimensions of the low-energy effective Lagrangian below the electroweak scale, up to terms of dimension six. The theory has 70 dimension-five and 3631 dimension-six Hermitian operators that preserve baryon…
We discuss the renormalization of local, scalar and pseudoscalar dimension-5 operators containing a heavy and a light quark field at scales below the heavy-quark mass, using the formalism of the heavy-quark effective theory (HQET). We…
We propose a non-perturbative method for defining the higher dimensional operators which appear in the Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET), such that their matrix elements are free of renormalon singularities, and diverge at most…
We calculate one-loop renormalization factors for heavy-light bilinears as well as four-fermion operators relevant for $B^{0} - \bar{B}^{0}$ mixing calculations on the lattice. We use the static approximation for heavy quarks and the…
Since fields in the heavy quark effective theory are described by both a velocity and a residual momentum, there is redundancy in the theory: small shifts in velocity may be absorbed into a redefinition of the residual momentum. We…
The existing derivations of a heavy quark effective theory (HQET) are analyzed beyond the next-to-leading order in $1/m$. With one exception they are found to be incorrect. The problem is a wrong normalization of the heavy quark field in…
