The one-loop gluon-W-meson amplitude is calculated by means of the gauge-invariant generalized Pauli–Villars regularization and with the help of dimensional regularization. It is shown that in the former case the amplitude satisfies generalized Ward identities, whereas in the latter case the amplitude differs from the former by the constant.

An explicit calculation of the one-loop topological mass term within a broad class of gauge invariant regularization schemes developed recently is presented for (2+1)-dimensional QED. This provides an uniform description of the results obtained recently in the literature and an explanation of their regularization scheme dependence. The Pauli-Villars and dimensional regularization are discussed in more detail in this context and an alternative formulation of dimensional regularization in (2+1) dimensions is described.

The non-planar contribution to the effective potentials for massless scalar and vector quantum field theories on D-dimensional manifold with p compact noncommutative extra dimensions is evaluated by means of dimensional regularization implemented by zeta function techniques. It is found that, the zeta function associated with the one-loop operator may not be regular at the origin. Thus, the related heat kernel trace has a logarithmic term in the short t asymptotic expansion. Consequences of this fact are briefly discussed.

AbstractWe investigate the properties and structure of the recently discussed “fully inclusive jet correlator”, namely, the gauge-invariant field correlator characterizing the final state hadrons produced by a free quark as this propagates in the vacuum. Working at the operator level, we connect this object to the single-hadron fragmentation correlator of a quark, and exploit a novel gauge invariant spectral decomposition technique to derive a complete set of momentum sum rules for quark fragmentation functions up to twist-3 level; known results are recovered, and new sum rules proposed. We then show how one can explicitly connect quark hadronization and dynamical quark mass generation by studying the inclusive jet’s gauge-invariant mass term. This mass is, on the one hand, theoretically related to the integrated chiral-odd spectral function of the quark, and, on the other hand, is experimentally accessible through the E and $${\widetilde{E}}$$ E ~ twist-3 fragmentation function sum rules. Thus, measurements of these fragmentation functions in deep inelastic processes provide one with an experimental gateway into the dynamical generation of mass in Quantum Chromodynamics.

The non-Abelian chiral anomaly for a fermion interacting with an external vector field in any even dimension and the conformal anomaly, in the limit of flat space–time, for a self-interacting scalar field are shown to be independent of temperature using a simple path-integral approach that employs dimensional regularization. The chiral anomaly is used as an example to show that the methods used to study the dimensionally regularized anomaly at finite temperature are readily transferable to the case of ζ-function regularization. The conformal anomaly in (super) string theory at finite temperature is briefly discussed in the light of known results. Some subtleties concerning the use of infrared cutoffs in a dimensionally regularized approach to the computation of the one-loop effective action at finite temperature are considered in an appendix.

The Bern-Kosower formalism, originally developed around 1990 as a novel way of obtaining on-shell amplitudes in field theory as limits of string amplitudes, has recently been shown to be extremely effcient as a tool for obtaining form factor decompositions of the N - gluon vertices. Its main advantages are that gauge invariant structures can be generated by certain systematic integration-by-parts procedures, making unnecessary the usual tedious analysis of the non-abelian off-shell Ward identities, and that the scalar, spinor and gluon loop cases can be treated in a unified way. After discussing the method in general for the N - gluon case, I will show in detail how to rederive the Ball- Chiu decomposition of the three - gluon vertex, and finally present two slightly different decompositions of the four - gluon vertex, one generalizing the Ball Chiu one, the other one closely linked to the QCD effective action.

In this work we show that we can obtain dual equivalent actions following the symplectic formalism with the introduction of extra variables which enlarge the phase space. We show that the results are equal as the one obtained with the recently developed gauging iterative Noether dualization method. We believe that, with the arbitrariness property of the zero mode, the symplectic embedding method is more profound since it can reveal a whole family of dual equivalent actions. We illustrate the method demonstrating that the gauge-invariance of the electromagnetic Maxwell Lagrangian broken by the introduction of an explicit mass term and a topological term can be restored to obtain the dual equivalent and gauge-invariant version of the theory.
