The recently proposed hard-pion chiral perturbation theory predicts that the leading chiral logarithms factorize with respect to the energy dependence in the chiral limit. This claim has been successfully tested in the pion form factors up…

Since order parameter of the chiral symmetry breaking Green Functions are a useful link between the OPE expansion and chiral perturbation theory we perform a calculation to the NLO in alpha_s, working in the chiral limit, for all the 2 and…

The structure of the two-point QCD Green-functions is studied in this note in the limit of large number of colours. Their general form at next-to-leading order in 1/Nc is derived keeping the infinite resonance summation and without relying…

We derive non-linear recursion relations for the leading chiral logarithms (LLs). These relations not only provide a very efficient method of computation of LLs (e.g. the 33-loop contribution is calculated in a dozen of seconds on a PC) but…

The vector and axial-vector two-point functions are calculated to next-to-next-to-leading order in Chiral Perturbation Theory for three light flavours. We also obtain expressions at the same order for the masses, $m_\pi^2$, $m_K^2$ and…

We obtain the leading divergences at two-loop order for the decays $K_{S} \to \gamma \gamma$ and $K_{S} \to \gamma~\l^+ \l^-$ using only one-loop diagrams. We then find the double chiral logarithmic corrections to the decay branching ratio…

In this paper we compare two loop Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) calculation of pion-pion scattering with the unitarity second order correction to the current algebra soft-pion theorem. It is shown that both methods lead to the same…

The divergences of the generating functional of quenched Chiral Perturbation theory (qCHPT) to one loop are computed in closed form. We show how the quenched chiral logarithms can be reabsorbed in the renormalization of the $B_0$ parameter…

We develop a compact representation of the one-loop n-point functions of all chiral primary operators in planar SU(N), N=4 super Yang-Mills theory in terms of tree-level disk correlation functions and the scalar one-loop box integral. As a…

Four-point functions of gauge-invariant operators in D=4, N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory are studied using N=2 harmonic superspace perturbation theory. The results are expressed in terms of differential operators acting on a scalar…

By using the Renormalization Group Equations in Chiral Perturbation Theory, one can calculate the double chiral logs that appear at two loops in any matrix element. We calculate them in the $\pi \pi$ scattering amplitude, where they…

Green functions play an important role in conformal geometry. In this paper, we explain how to compute explicitly the logarithmic singularities of the Green functions of the conformal powers of the Laplacian. These operators include the…

We evaluate the Green's function for the insertion of the second moment of the twist-$2$ flavour nonsinglet Wilson operator in a quark $2$-point function in all three different single scale external momentum configurations at four loops in…

We extend earlier work on leading logarithms in the massive nonlinear O(n) sigma model to the case of SU(N)xSU(N)/SU(N) which coincides with mesonic chiral perturbation theory for N flavours of light quarks. We discuss the leading…

Chiral perturbation theory in the two-flavour sector allows one to analyse Green functions in QCD in a limit where the strange quark mass is considered to be large in comparison to the external momenta and to the light quark masses. In this…

The existing Chiral Perturbation Theory (ChPT) calculations at order $p^6$ are reviewed. The principles of ChPT and how they are used are introduced. The main part is a review of the two- and three-flavour full two-loop calculations and…

Within the heavy baryon chiral perturbation theory approach, we have studied the leading logarithm behaviour of the nucleon mass up to four-loop order exactly and we present some results up to six-loop order as well as an all-order…

We evaluate the electric and magnetic polarizabilities of charged pions in the framework of chiral perturbation theory at next-to-leading order. This requires a two-loop evaluation of the Compton amplitude near threshold. We estimate the…

We study the decays $K\to\pi\pi$ in one-loop two-flavour Chiral Perturbation Theory. We provide arguments why the calculation of the coefficient of the pionic chiral logarithm $\logm = M^2\log M^2$ is unique and then perform the…

We analyse within the framework of resonance chiral theory the $\langle SA_\mu A_\nu \rangle$ and $\langle SV_\mu V_\nu \rangle$ three-point Green functions, where $S$, $A_{\mu} $ and $V_{\mu}$ are short for scalar, axial-vector and vector…
