Form factors in planar $\mathcal{N}=4$ super-Yang-Mills theory have a dual description in terms of periodic Wilson loops. This duality maps the multi-collinear expansion of the former to an operator product expansion of the latter. The…

In this paper we study the renormalization of the product of two operators $O_1=-\frac{1}{4} G^{\mu \nu}G_{\mu \nu}$ in QCD. An insertion of two such operators $O_1(x)O_1(0)$ into a Greens function produces divergent contact terms for…

(Quasi)conformal scaling of composite operators from a strongly coupled EWSB dynamics helps to produce the characteristic hierarchies exhibited by the flavour couplings of the SM. It is however crucial to ensure that specific models satisfy…
