We give a complete, self-contained, and mathematically rigorous proof that Euclidean Yang-Mills theories are perturbatively renormalisable, in the sense that all correlation functions of arbitrary composite local operators fulfil suitable…

We study a marginal deformation of N=4 Yang-Mills, with a real deformation parameter beta. This beta-deformed model has only N=1 supersymmetry and a U(1)xU(1) flavor symmetry. The introduction of a new superspace star-product allows us to…

We introduce a generalization of the conventional renormalization schemes used in dimensional regularization, which illuminates the renormalization scheme and scale ambiguities of pQCD predictions, exposes the general pattern of…

We find a strong coupling expansion around the non-trivial extremum of the Yang-Mills action. It is shown that the developed formalism is the Gribov ambiguity free since each order of the developed perturbation theory is transparently gauge…

We generalize the proof of the non-renormalization of the four derivative operators in ${\cal N}=4$ Yang Mills theory with gauge group SU(2) to show that certain terms with 2N derivatives are not renormalized in the theory with gauge group…

The $\beta$-functions describe how couplings run under the renormalization group flow in field theories. In general, all couplings that respect the symmetry and locality are generated under the renormalization group flow, and the exact…

Threshold effects related to fermion masses are considered for an all-order beta-function based on a background field momentum subtraction scheme. Far away from all thresholds, the suggested beta-function reduces to the conjectured…

We show that the renormalization group beta functions in the Nambu-Jona-Lasinio model identically vanish in all order due to the compositeness condition. Accordingly the effective coupling constants are entirely fixed and do not run with…

We present a very simple and explicit procedure for nonlocalizing the action of any theory which can be formulated perturbatively. When the resulting nonlocal field theory is quantized using the functional formalism --- with unit measure…

We study theories generated by orbifolding the {\cal N}=4 super conformal U(N) Yang Mills theory with finite N, focusing on the r\^ole of the remnant U(1) gauge symmetries of the orbifold process. It is well known that the one loop beta…

The radiative correction to beta function is comprehensively studied at 1 loop in the context of universal extra dimensions. Instead of using cutoffs to regularize 1-loop divergences, the dimensional regularization scheme is used. Large…

We construct the order alpha'^3 terms in the supersymmetric Yang-Mills action in ten dimensions for an arbitrary gauge group. The result can be expressed in terms of the structure constants of the Yang-Mills group, and is therefore…

We prove the perturbative renormalisability of pure SU(2) Yang-Mills theory in the abelian gauge supplemented with mass terms. Whereas mass terms for the gauge fields charged under the diagonal U(1) allow to preserve the standard form of…

As a basic requirement of the renormalization group invariance, any physical observable must be independent of the choice of both the renormalization scheme and the initial renormalization scale. In this paper, we show that by using the…

We present in detail a new systematic method which can be used to automatically eliminate the renormalization scheme and scale ambiguities in perturbative QCD predictions at all orders. We show that all of the nonconformal \beta-dependent…

A manifestly invariant renormalization scheme of N=1 nonabelian supersymmetric gauge theories is proposed.

This PhD thesis is devoted to show that differential renormalization is a simple and useful renormalization method that we can use when dealing with gauge theories. In this work, it is shown how the one-loop results of Constraint…

We consider N=4 super Yang-Mills theory on a four-dimensional lattice. The lattice formulation under consideration retains one exact supersymmetry at non-zero lattice spacing. We show that this feature combined with gauge invariance and the…

We demonstrate that the soft supersymmetry-breaking terms in a N=1 theory can be linked by simple renormalisation group invariant relations which are valid to all orders of perturbation theory. In the special case of finite N=1 theories,…

We investigate the renormalization group flow and beta functions of Yang-Mills theory and adjoint QCD in a strong, stable, self-dual background field $F$. In deep UV, theory runs according to the standard beta function, $\beta_0$. Treating…
