Renormalized gauge-invariant observables in gauge theories form an algebra which is obtained as the cohomology of the derivation $[\textbf{Q}_L, -]$ with $\textbf{Q}_L$ the renormalized interacting quantum BRST charge. For a large class of…
In recent years, the usual BPHZ algorithm for renormalization in perturbative quantum field theory has been interpreted, after dimensional regularization, as a Birkhoff decomposition of characters on the Hopf algebra of Feynman graphs, with…
Recently, a practical approach to holographic renormalization has been developed based on the Hamilton-Jacobi formulation. Using a simple Einstein-scalar theory, we clarify that this approach does not conflict with the Hamiltonian…
The evaluation of Yukawa-enhanced two-loop contributions to the MSSM Higgs-boson mass is considered. We prove the common assumption that regularization by dimensional reduction preserves supersymmetry at the required level. Thus generating…
In this work we present an algebraic proof of the renormazibility of the super-Yang-Mills action quantized in a generalized supersymmetric version of the maximal Abelian gauge. The main point stated here is that the generalized gauge…
We address the issue of the all order multiplicative renormalizability of $SU(2)$ Gribov-Zwanziger theories quantized in the maximal Abelian gauge in presence of confined matter fields. The non-linear character of the maximal Abelian gauge…
We construct several quantum gauge theories in 4 dimensional space time, including both Abelian and non Abelian gauge groups, with the Abelian gauge fields coupled to zero mass matter fields. The construction occurs in a fixed finite…
We prove perturbative renormalizability of projectable Horava gravity. The key element of the argument is the choice of a gauge which ensures the correct anisotropic scaling of the propagators and their uniform falloff at large frequencies…
The non-Abelian gauge model proposed by Jackiw and Pi, which generates an even-parity mass term in three space-time dimensions, is revisited in this letter. All the symmetries of the model are collected and established by means of BRS…
We explicitly show perturbative gauge fixing independence of the tunneling rate to a stable radiatively induced vacuum in the abelian Higgs model. We work with a class of $R_\xi$ gauges in the presence of both dimensionless and dimensionful…
Anomalies and BRST invariance are governed, in the context of Lagrangian Batalin-Vilkovisky quantization, by the master equation, whose classical limit is $(S, S)=0$. Using Zimmerman's normal products and the BPHZ renormalisation method, we…
We propose a novel gauge-invariant regularization for the perturbative chiral gauge theory.Our method consists of the two ingredients: use of the domain-wall fermion to describe a chiral fermion with Pauli-Villars regulators and application…
Using the background field method, we study in a general covariant gauge the renormalization of the 6-dimensional Yang-Mills theory. This requires background gauge invariant counterterms, some of which do not vanish on shell. Such…
We show that it is possible to formulate the most general first-class gauge algebra of the operator formalism by only using BRST-invariant constraints. In particular, we extend a previous construction for irreducible gauge algebras to the…
We continue the analysis of the gauge-invariant decomposition of amplitudes in spontaneously broken massive gauge theories by providing a characterization of separately gauge-invariant subsectors for amplitudes involving trilinear…
The Higgs mechanism gives mass to Yang-Mills gauge bosons. According to the conventional wisdom, this happens through the spontaneous breaking of gauge symmetry. Yet, gauge symmetries merely reflect a redundancy in the state description and…
Integral operators of Abel type of order a > 0 arise naturally in a large spectrum of physical processes. Their inversion requires care since the resulting inverse problem is ill-posed. The purpose of this work is to devise and analyse a…
These proceedings discuss the current progress of the no-compromise approach to the dimensional renormalization of chiral gauge theories in the context of the BMHV scheme with non-anticommuting $\gamma_5$. Despite spuriously breaking…
We give a review of UV renormalization of Ho\v{r}ava gravity (HG) models introduced as a remedy against violation of unitarity in quantum gravity theory. Projectable and non-projectable low-dimensional HG models and the spectra of their…
We perform the renormalization of different types of Two-Higgs-Doublet Models for the calculation of observables at next-to-leading order. In detail, we suggest four different renormalization schemes based on on-shell renormalization…
