A quantum effective action for gauge field theories is constructed that is gauge invariant and independent of the choice of gauge breaking terms and the ghost determinant.
The application of the background-field method to the electroweak Standard Model and its virtues are reviewed. Special emphasis is directed to the Ward identities that follow from the gauge invariance of the background-field effective…
An approximate technique for performing nonperturbative calculations in quantum SU(3) gauge theory is presented. One aspect of this nonperturbative method is the breaking down $SU(3) \to SU(2) + coset$. The procedure also uses some aspects…
We derive the spectral representations of QED 3-point functions and then explicitly calculate the 3-point spectral densities in hard thermal loop approximation within the real time formalism. The Ward identities obeyed by the retarded and…

We use supersymmetric Ward identities to relate multi-gluon helicity amplitudes involving a pair of massive quarks to amplitudes with massive scalars. This allows to use the recent results for scalar amplitudes with an arbitrary number of…
The Ward identities are the relations which the complete Green functions of quantum fields satisfy if an original classical Lagrangian system is degenerate. A generic degenerate Lagrangian system of even and odd fields is considered. It is…

We analyze a formulation of QED based on the Wilson renormalization group. Although the ``effective Lagrangian'' used at any given scale does not have simple gauge symmetry, we show that the resulting renormalized Green's functions…
We consider Yang-Mills theory in a general class of Abelian gauges. Exploiting the residual Abelian symmetry on a quantum level, we derive a set of Ward identities in functional form, valid to all orders in perturbation theory. As a…
Using the 1/N_C expansion scheme and truncating the hadronic spectrum to the lowest-lying multiplets of resonances we develop a procedure to implement QCD information on the non-perturbative regime populated by resonances through the use of…
In the context of gauge/gravity duality, we verify two types of gauge theory low-energy theorems, the dilation Ward identities and the decoupling of heavy flavor. First, we provide an analytic proof of non-trivial dilation Ward identities…
The rules of local superfield Lagrangian quantization in reducible non-Abelian hypergauge functions are formulated for an arbitrary gauge theory. The generating functionals of standard and vertex Green's functions which depend on the…
When all Green's functions are known in a given gauge we may raise a question of whether it is possible or not to derive the corresponding ones in a different gauge. The answer is negative in QCD but affirmative in QED provided that we…
In this paper we present the calculation of the three-point function in momentum space of currents for a $SO(3)$ global symmetry, in a three-dimensional toy model within phenomenological holographic cosmology. Since the two-point function…
We propose a strategy to non-perturbatively match the Wilson coefficients in the three- and four-flavor theories, which uses two-point Green's functions of the corresponding four-quark operators at long distances. The idea is refined by…
The two-loop three-gluon vertex is calculated in an arbitrary covariant gauge, in the limit when one of the external momenta vanishes. The differential Ward-Slavnov-Taylor (WST) identity related to this limit is discussed, and the relevant…
