We report on the first self-consistent solution of the Dyson-Schwinger equation (DSE) for the three-gluon vertex. Based on earlier results for the propagators which match data from lattice Monte-Carlo simulations, we obtain results for the…

We calculate the two-loop flavor-singlet axial-vector and gluon transversity coefficient functions for deeply virtual Compton scattering in QCD. We observe interesting properties regarding the transcendentality of the transversity…
It is well known that, in Landau gauge, the renormalization function of the ghost-ghost-gluon vertex \widetilde{Z}_1(p^2) is finite and constant, at least to all orders of perturbation theory. On the other hand, a direct non-perturbative…
Off-shell Ward identities in non-abelian gauge theory continue to be a subject of active research, since they are, in general, inhomogeneous and their form depends on the chosen gauge-fixing procedure. For the three-gluon and four-gluon…
In this work we compute the most general massive one-loop off-shell three-point vertex in D-dimensions, where the masses, external momenta, and exponents of propagators are arbitrary. This follows our previous paper in which we have…
The four-loop beta-function of quantum chromodynamics is calculated and agreement is found with the previous result. The anomalous dimensions of the quark-gluon vertex, and quark, gluon and ghost fields are given for a general compact…
Using the S--matrix pinch technique we obtain to one loop order, gauge independent $\gamma W^-W^+$ and $Z W^-W^+$ vertices in the context of the standard model, with all incoming momenta off--shell. We show that the vertices so constructed…
The dynamically generated effective gluon mass is known to depend non-trivially on the momentum, decreasing sufficiently fast in the deep ultraviolet, in order for the renormalizability of QCD to be preserved. General arguments based on the…
A truncation scheme for the Dyson-Schwinger equations of QCD in Landau gauge is presented which implements the Slavnov-Taylor identities for the 3-point vertex functions. Neglecting contributions from 4-point correlations such as the…

We derive explicit results for fermion loops with an arbitrary number of density vertices in two dimensions at zero temperature. The 3-loop is an elementary function of the three external momenta and frequencies, and the N-loop can be…
High-energy factorization of 2 -> 2 amplitudes in QCD has been recently pushed to the next-to-next-to-leading logarithmic order by determining the three-loop gluon Regge trajectory. This was based on computing multi-Reggeon exchanges using…
The coefficient of the dimensionally regularized two-loop R^3 divergence of (nonsupersymmetric) gravity theories has recently been shown to change when non-dynamical three forms are added to the theory, or when a pseudo-scalar is replaced…
The coupling of a pseudo-scalar Higgs boson to gluons is mediated through a heavy quark loop. In the limit of large quark mass, it is described by an effective Lagrangian that only admits light degrees of freedom. In this effective theory,…
The behaviour of two-loop two-point diagrams at non-zero thresholds corresponding to two-particle cuts is analyzed. The masses involved in a cut and the external momentum are assumed to be small as compared to some of the other masses of…
