We present the method of numerical optimization for the perturbative series using the renormalization group in quantum chromodynamics. We apply our approach to the perturbation series in $\alpha_s$ for the coefficient function…
Renormalizability of the (minimal) single-fermion QED extension is investigated at all orders of perturbation theory in the framework of algebraic renormalization, a regularization-independent method. Relative to the standard QED, new…
After reviewing how the renormalization group equation can be used to sum logarithmic corrections to the decay rate for the semi-leptonic process b->u when using minimal subtraction, we consider renormalization scheme dependence for this…
The next-next-to-leading order QCD corrections to the e+e- annihilation into hadrons are considered. The stability of the predictions with respect to change of the renormalization scheme is discussed in detail for the case of five, four and…
The general relation between the standard expansion coefficients and the beta function for the QCD coupling is exactly derived in a mathematically strict way. It is accordingly found that an infinite number of logarithmic terms are lost in…
Experimental data obtained for the polarized Bjorken sum rule (BSR) $\Gamma_1^{p-n}(Q^2)$ are fitted by using predictions derived within a truncated operator product expansion (OPE) approach to QCD. Four QCD versions are considered:…
Using renormalization-group methods, we derive differential equations for the all-orders summation of logarithmic corrections to the QCD series for R(s) = sigma(e^+ e^- --> hadrons)/sigma(e^+ e^- --> mu^+ mu^-), as obtained from the…
In this paper, we calculate the next-to-next-to-leading-order (NNLO) QCD corrections to $e^+e^- \to J/\psi+\eta_c$ at the $B$ factories. After including the NNLO corrections, the cross section of $e^+e^- \to J/\psi+\eta_c$ is enhanced by…
Given a renormalization scheme of QCD, one can define a mass scale $\Lambda_{\rm QCD}$ in terms of the beta function. Under a change of the renormalization scheme, however, $\Lambda_{\rm QCD}$ changes by a multiplicative constant. We…
Perturbation series in QCD are generally asymptotic and suffer from so-called infrared renormalon ambiguities. In the context of the standard operator product expansion in MS-bar these ambiguities are compensated by matrix elements of…
A novel, non-power, expansion of QCD quantities replacing the standard perturbative expansion in powers of the renormalized couplant a has recently been introduced and examined by two of us. Being obtained by analytic continuation in the…
We use the BLM method to fix the renormalization scale of the QCD coupling in exclusive hadronic amplitudes such as the pion form factor and the photon-to-pion transition form factor at large momentum transfer.…
We suggest a simple algebraic approach to fix the elements of the $\{ \beta \}$-expansion for renormalization group invariant quantities, which uses additional degrees of freedom. The approach is discussed in detail for N$^2$LO calculations…
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…
The setting of the renormalization scale ($\mu_r$) in the perturbative QCD (pQCD) is one of the crucial problems for achieving precise fixed-order pQCD predictions. The conventional prescription is to take its value as the typical momentum…
In any calculation in perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD) a choice needs to be made for the unphysical renormalisation scale, $\mu_R$. The Brodsky-Lepage-Mackenzie/Principle of Maximum Conformality (BLM/PMC) scale-setting procedure is…
It is shown that the next-to-leading order (NLO) corrections to the QCD Pomeron intercept obtained from the BFKL equation, when evaluated in non-Abelian physical renormalization schemes with BLM optimal scale setting do not exhibit the…
The predictive power of perturbative QCD (pQCD) depends on two important issues: (1) how to eliminate the renormalization scheme-and-scale ambiguities at fixed order, and (2) how to reliably estimate the contributions of unknown…
The large-order behaviour of QCD is dominated by renormalons. On the other hand renormalons do not occur in conformal theories, such as the one describing the infrared fixed-point of QCD at small beta_0 (the Banks--Zaks limit). Since the…
Order $\beta_0^n \alpha_s^{n+1}$ QCD corrections to top quark decays into $W^+$ and $H^+$ bosons are computed to all orders in perturbation theory. Predictions for the radiative corrections to the top quark width are compared with the…
