Abstract. Hydrological applications such as storm-water management or flood design usually deal with and are driven by region-specific reference rainfall regulations or guidelines based on Intensity-Duration-Frequency (IDF) curves. IDF curves are usually obtained via frequency analysis of rainfall data using which the exceedance probability of rain intensity for different durations are determined. It is also rather common for reference rainfall to be expressed in terms of precipitation P, accumulated in a duration D (related to rainfall intensity ), with a return period T (inverse of exceedance probability). Meteorological modules of hydro-meteorological models used for the aforementioned applications therefore need to be capable of simulating such reference rainfall scenarios. The multifractal cascade framework, since it incorporates physically realistic properties of rainfall processes (non-homogeneity or intermittency, scale invariance and extremal statistics) seems to suit this purpose. Here we propose a discrete-in-scale universal multifractal (UM) cascade based approach. Daily, Hourly and six-minute rainfall time series datasets (with lengths ranging from 100 to 15 years) over three regions (Paris, Nantes, and Aix-en-Provence) in France that are characterized by different climates are analyzed to identify scaling regimes and estimate corresponding UM parameters (α, C1) required by the UM cascade model. Suitable renormalization constants that correspond to the P, D, T values of reference rainfall are used to simulate an ensemble of reference rainfall scenarios, and the simulations are finally compared with datasets. Although only purely temporal simulations are considered here, this approach could possibly be generalized to higher spatial dimensions as well.

AbstractThe connection between gauge and Higgs sectors makes supersymmetric extensions of the Standard Model predictive frameworks for the derivation of Higgs masses. In this paper, we study the contamination of such predictions by field-renormalization constants, in the MSSM with two-loop gaugeless corrections of $$\mathcal {O}\big (\alpha _{t,b}\,\alpha _s,\,\alpha _{t,b}^2\big )$$ O ( α t , b α s , α t , b 2 ) and full momentum dependence, and demonstrate how strict perturbative expansions allow to systematically neutralize the dependence on such unphysical objects. On the other hand, the popular procedure consisting in an iterative pole search remains explicitly dependent on field counterterms. We then analyze the magnitude of the intrinsic uncertainty that this feature implies for the iterative method, both in non-degenerate and near-degenerate regimes, and conclude that this strategy does not improve on the predictions of the more straightforward expansion. We also discuss several features related to the inclusion of the orders $$\alpha _{t,b}\,\alpha _s$$ α t , b α s and $$\alpha _{t,b}^2$$ α t , b 2 in the so-called ‘fixed-order’ approach, such as the resummation of UV-logarithms for heavy supersymmetric spectra.

Abstract We consider the on-shell mass and wave function renormalization constants $$ {Z}_m^{\mathrm{OS}} $$ Z m OS and $$ {Z}_2^{\mathrm{OS}} $$ Z 2 OS up to three-loop order allowing for a second non-zero quark mass. We obtain analytic results in terms of harmonic polylogarithms and iterated integrals with the additional letters $$ \sqrt{1-{\tau}^2} $$ 1 − τ 2 and $$ \sqrt{1-{\tau}^2}/\tau $$ 1 − τ 2 / τ which extends the findings from ref. [1] where only numerical expressions are presented. Furthermore, we provide terms of order $$ \mathcal{O} $$ O (ϵ2) and $$ \mathcal{O} $$ O (ϵ) at two- and three-loop order which are crucial ingredients for a future four-loop calculation. Compact results for the expansions around the zero-mass, equal-mass and large-mass cases allow for a fast high-precision numerical evaluation.

We report on non-perturbative computations of the improvement coefficient cV and the renormalization factor ZV of the vector current in three-flavour O(a) improved lattice QCD with Wilson quarks and tree-level Symanzik improved gauge action. To reduce finite quark mass effects, our improvement and normalization conditions exploit massive chiral Ward identities formulated in the Schrödinger functional setup, which also allow deriving a new method to extract the ratio ZS/ZP of scalar to pseudoscalar renormalization constants. We present preliminary results of a numerical evaluation of ZV and cV along a line of constant physics with gauge couplings corresponding to lattice spacings of about 0:09 fm and below, relevant for phenomenological applications.

By considering a general Abelian chiral gauge theory, we investigate the behavior of anomalous Ward–Takahashi (WT) identities concerning their prediction for the usual relationship between the vertex and two-point fermion functions. Using gauge anomaly vanishing results, we show that the usual (in the nonanomalous case) WT identity connecting the vertex and two-point fermion 1PI functions is modified for Abelian chiral gauge theories. The modification, however, implies a relation between fermion and charge renormalization constants that can be important in a future study of renormalization of such theories.

Considering that nature acts as a group, a whole abelian model is being developed. Classically, new aspects were observed as elds collective behavior and elds interacting among themselves and with mass through a global Lorentz force. This work analyzes some quantic aspects. Perturbation theory means that we know about 1-PI graphs. In a previous work, we have studied the quantum action principle, power-counting, primitively divergent graphs, Ward-Takahashi identities. This work concerns the study of counterterms and physical perturbation theory. It introduces a whole renormalization programme which informations are obtained from the common gauge parameter which establishes the elds set. It derives relationships between renormalization constants and on perturbative persistence on one masslessness eld in the fAIg set. It also argues on nitude possibilities through a whole expansion for the graphs.
