We generalize the embedding formalism for conformal field theories to the case of general operators with mixed symmetry. The index-free notation encoding symmetric tensors as polynomials in an auxiliary polarization vector is extended to…
Motivated by bubble nucleation in first order phase transitions, we question the validity of the effective potential for inhomogeneous configurations. In an attempt to get some insight into the importance of derivative terms, we analyze a…
We consider a symmetric scalar theory with quartic coupling in 4-dimensions. We show that the 4 loop 2PI calculation can be done using a renormalization group method. The calculation involves one bare coupling constant which is introduced…
We consider an integral operator $\mathcal{I}$, special instances of which was studied in various contexts. Using an appropriate transformation we write this operator in terms of weighted composition operators. Then, we provide a…
For a light enough Higgs boson, the effective potential of the Standard Model develops a dangerous instability at some high energy scale, Lambda, signalling the need for new physics below that scale. On the other hand, a typical low-energy…
Essential to QCD applications of the operator product expansion, etc., is a knowledge of those operators that mix with gauge-invariant operators. A standard theorem asserts that the renormalization matrix is triangular: Gauge-invariant…
In this paper, we further investigate the problem of commutativity up to a factor (or $\lambda$-commutativity) in the setting of bounded and unbounded linear operators in a complex Hilbert space. The results are based on a new approach to…
In the AdS/CFT correspondence we consider correlation functions of gauge-invariant operators on the gauge theory side, which we obtain in the low-energy limit of the open string sector. To investigate this low-energy limit we consider the…
Aluthge transform of a bounded operator is generalized to the case of unbounded one. A formula for the Aluthge transform of a weighted shift on a directed tree is established and it is used to construct an example of a hyponormal operator…
We extend the recent formalism developed for computing rapidity anomalous dimension of form factors using unitarity to the problem of high-energy near forward scattering. By combining the factorization of $2\rightarrow 2$ scattering in the…
Particular solutions of the Poisson equation can be constructed via Newtonian potentials, integrals involving the corresponding Green's function which in two-dimensions has a logarithmic singularity. The singularity represents a significant…
The form of collinear gauge invariance for power suppressed operators in the soft-collinear effective theory is discussed. Using a field redefinition we show that it is possible to make any power suppressed ultrasoft-collinear operators…
In semantics and in programming practice, algebraic concepts such as monads or, essentially equivalently, (large) Lawvere theories are a well-established tool for modelling generic side-effects. An important issue in this context are…
This article expands our work in [Ca16]. By its reliance on Turing computability, the classical theory of effectivity, along with effective reducibility and Weihrauch reducibility, is only applicable to objects that are either countable or…
The general correlator of composite operators of N=4 supersymmetric gauge field theory is divergent. We introduce a means for renormalizing these correlators by adding a boundary theory on the AdS space correcting for the divergences. Such…
The performance of correlated optimized effective potential (OEP) functionals based on the spin-resolved second-order correlation energy is analyzed. The relative importance of singly- and doubly- excited contributions as well as the effect…
We propose a non-perturbative method for computing the renormalization constants of generic composite operators. This method is intended to reduce some systematic errors, which are present when one tries to obtain physical predictions from…
A novel theoretical approach to the problem of the compositeness ($X$) of a resonance or bound state is developed on the basis of the expectation values of the number operators of the free particles in the continuum. This formalism is…
Functional methods can be applied to the quantum effective action to efficiently determine counterterms and matching conditions for effective field theories. We extend the toolbox to two-loop order and beyond and show how to evaluate the…
We explore commutativity up to a factor, $AB=\lambda BA$, for bounded operators in a complex Hilbert space. Conditions on the possible values of the factor $\lambda$ are formulated and shown to depend on spectral properties of the operators…
