We present a complete reevaluation of the irreducible two-loop vacuum-polarization correction to the photon propagator in quantum electrodynamics, i.e. with an electron-positron pair in the fermion propagators. The integration is carried…
We show that in arbitrary even dimension, the two-loop scalar QED Heisenberg-Euler effective action can be reduced to simple one-loop quantities, using just algebraic manipulations, when the constant background field satisfies F^2 = -f^2 I,…

In this work we study a z=3 Horava-Lifshitz-like extension of QED in (3+1) dimensions. We calculate the one-loop radiative corrections to the two and three-point functions of the gauge and fermion fields. Such corrections were achieved…
Using six-dimensional quantum electrodynamics ($QED_6$) as an example we study the one-loop renormalization of the theory both from the six and four-dimensional points of view. Our main conclusion is that the properly renormalized four…
Reaching a theoretical accuracy in the prediction of the lightest MSSM Higgs-boson mass, M_h, at the level of the current experimental precision requires the inclusion of momentum-dependent contributions at the two-loop level. Recently two…
We study to one-loop order the renormalization of QCD in the Coulomb gauge using the Hamitonian formalism. Divergences occur which might require counter-terms outside the Hamiltonian formalism, but they can be cancelled by a redefinition of…
We find a general formula for the two-loop renormalization counterterms of a scalar quantum field theory with interactions containing up to two derivatives, extending 't~Hooft's one-loop result. The method can also be used for theories with…
We study the so-called ``Kaluza-Klein regularization''. We calculate one-loop corrections to the Higgs mass due to Kaluza-Klein modes explicitly in a model with SUSY breaking mass splitting between bosonic and fermionic modes. We perform…
The computation of renormalized one-loop amplitudes in quantum field theory requires not only the knowledge of the Lagrangian density and the corresponding Feynman rules, but also that of the ultraviolet counterterms. More in general, and…
We perform a two-loop calculation of the effective Lagrangian for the low--energy modes of the quantum mechanical system obtained by dimensional reduction from 4D, N = 1 supersymmetric QED. The bosonic part of the Lagrangian describes the…
In the context of Differential Renormalization, using Constrained Differential Renormalization rules at one loop, we show how to obtain concrete results in two loop calculations without making use of Ward identities. In order to do that, we…
We study the two-loop renormalization group equation for the running gaugino mass in the supersymmetric gauge theory. We find that both in the \msbar and \drbar renormalization schemes, the well-known proportionality of the runnings of the…
The renormalization of the scalar diquark operator and its anomalous dimension is calculated at two-loop order in QCD, enabling higher-order QCD studies of diquarks. As an application of our result, the two-loop diquark anomalous dimension…
