Multidimensional Residues for Feynman Integrals with Generic Power of Propagators

We propose that the concept of multidimensional residues can be used to directly extracting the coefficients of scalar master integrals (with single propagators only) from one-loop Feynman integrals with generic power of propagators. Unlike the usual integration-by-parts (IBP) technique, where one has to solve iteratively a complicated set of equations to carry out the reduction and determine the coefficients of scalar master integrals, using multidimensional residues provides the possibility of directly extracting the coefficients of the master integrals. As the first application of this idea, we show how to directly extract the scalar box integral coefficients.

Hydrodynamics of a 5D Einstein-dilaton black hole solution and the corresponding BPS state

We apply the potential reconstruction approach to generate a series of asymptotically AdS (aAdS) black hole solutions, with a self-interacting bulk scalar field. Based on the method, we reproduce the pure AdS solution as a consistency check and we also generate a simple analytic 5D black hole solution. We then study various aspects of this solution, such as temperature, entropy density and conserved charges. Furthermore, we study the hydrodynamics of this black hole solution in the framework of fluid/gravity duality, e.g. the ratio of the shear viscosity to the entropy density. In a degenerate case of the 5D black hole solution, we find that the c function decreases monotonically from UV to IR as expected. Finally, we investigate the stability of the degenerate solution by studying the bosonic functional energy of the gravity and the Witten-Nester energy $E_{WN}$. We confirm that the degenerate solution is a BPS domain wall solution. The corresponding superpotential and the solution of the killing spinor equation are found explicitly.

Radiative Corrections to $H^0\to WW/ZZ$ in the MSSM

The electroweak $\mathcal O(α)$ radiative corrections to the decay of the heavy CP-even MSSM Higgs boson to weak gauge bosons are presented. Due to the suppression of the tree-level $H^0WW/H^0ZZ$ coupling, the electroweak contributions to the partial decay width are significant. Although the effective Born decay width can be rather small for certain $M_{A^0}$ values (especially for large $\tanβ$), the corrected partial widths at different values of $M_{A^0}$ are of comparable size.

Hydrodynamics with conserved current via AdS/CFT correspondence in the Maxwell-Gauss-Bonnet gravity

Using the AdS/CFT correspondence, we study the hydrodynamics with conserved current from the dual Maxwell-Gauss-Bonnet gravity. After constructing the perturbative solution to the first order based on the boosted black brane solution in the bulk Maxwell-Gauss-Bonnet gravity, we extract the stress tensor and conserved current of the dual conformal fluid on its boundary, and also find the effect of Gauss-Bonnet term on the dual conformal fluid. Our results show that the Gauss-Bonnet term can affect the parameters such as the shear viscosity $η$, entropy density $s$, thermal conductivity $κ$ and electrical conductivity $σ$. However, it does not affect the so-called Wiedemann-Franz law which relates $κ$ to $σ$, while it affects the ratio $η/s$. In addition, another interesting result is that the $η/s$ can also be affected by the bulk Maxwell field in our case, which is consistent with some previous results predicted through the Kubo formula. Moreover, the anomalous magnetic and vortical effects by adding the Chern-Simons term are also considered in our case in the Maxwell-Gauss-Bonnet gravity.

Radiative corrections to $h^0\to WW^*/ZZ^*\to 4$\,leptons in the MSSM

The electroweak $\mc O(α)$ radiative corrections to the decay of the lightest MSSM Higgs boson to four leptons are presented, improved by the two-loop corrections provided by the program package FeynHiggs. We also analyze the results in the decoupling limit and investigate the numeric impact of contributions from the genuine supersymmetric particle spectrum.

On the two-loop hexagon Wilson loop remainder function in N=4 SYM

A duality relation has been proposed between the planar gluon MHV amplitudes and light-like Wilson loops in N=4 super Yang-Mills. At six-point two-loop, the results for the planar gluon MHV amplitude and for the light-like Wilson loop agree, but they both differ from the Bern-Dixon-Smirnov ansatz by a finite remainder function. Recently Del Duca, Duhr and Smirnov presented an analytical result for the two-loop hexagon Wilson loop remainder function in general kinematics. Their result is rather lengthy, and the dependence on the conformal cross ratios appears in a complicated way. Here we present an alternate, more compact representation for the two-loop hexagon Wilson loop remainder function.

On the Yang-Mills two-loop effective action with wordline methods

We derive the two-loop effective action for covariantly constant field strength of pure Yang-Mills theory in the presence of an infrared scale. The computation is done in the framework of the worldline formalism, based on a generalization procedure of constructing multiloop effective actions in terms of the bosonic worldline path integral. The two-loop beta-function is correctly reproduced. This is the first derivation in the worldline formulation, and serves as a nontrivial check on the consistency of the multiloop generalization procedure in the worldline formalism.
