We describe a new, convenient, recursive tensor integral reduction scheme for one-loop $n$-point Feynman integrals. The reduction is based on the algebraic Davydychev-Tarasov formalism where the tensors are represented by scalars with…
This paper describes a computation of a part of the QED contribution to the electron anomalous magnetic moment that was performed by the author with the help of a supercomputer. The computed part includes all 5-loop QED Feynman graphs…
Recently, it was suggested that there was some sort of breakdown of quantum field theory in the presence of boundaries, manifesting itself as a torque anomaly. In particular, Fulling et al. used the finite energy-momentum-stress tensor in…
The trace anomaly of conformal matter implies the existence of massless scalar poles in physical amplitudes involving the stress-energy tensor. These poles may be described by a local effective action with massless scalar fields, which…

We study quantum dilaton coupled spinors in two and four dimensions. Making classical transformation of metric, dilaton coupled spinor theory is transformed to minimal spinor theory with another metric and in case of 4d spinor also in the…
A recently proposed effective action for the trace anomaly describes a tensor-scalar theory that is weakly coupled up to a certain high energy scale, where it becomes strongly interacting. Its ultraviolet completion is obtained by coupling…
The general structure of trace anomaly, suggested recently by Deser and Shwimmer, is argued to be the consequence of the Wess-Zumino consistency condition. The response of partition function on a finite Weyl transformation, which is…
Using cohomological methods, we identify both trivial and nontrivial contributions to the conformal anomaly in the presence of vectorial torsion in $d=2,4$ dimensions. In both cases, our analysis considers two scenarios: one in which the…
We use tensor network techniques to obtain high order perturbative diagrammatic expansions for the quantum many-body problem at very high precision. The approach is based on a tensor train parsimonious representation of the sum of all…
We report on a systematic replica approach to calculate the subsystem trace distance for a quantum field theory. This method has been recently introduced in [J. Zhang, P. Ruggiero, P. Calabrese, Phys. Rev. Lett. 122, 141602 (2019)], of…
We derive the expression of the abelian axial anomaly in the so-called multi-Weyl and triple-point crossing semimetals. No simplifying restrictions are assumed on the symmetry of the spectrum. Three different computation methods are…
The methods of effective field theory are used to explore the theoretical and phenomenological aspects of the torsion field. Spinor action coupled to electromagnetic field and torsion possesses an additional softly broken gauge symmetry.…
Information about the number of Feynman graphs for a given physical process in a given field theory is especially useful for confirming the result of a Feynman graph generator used in an automatic system of perturbative calculations. A…
