Abstract We perform a numerical computation of the anomalous magnetic moment (g − 2) of the electron in QED by using the stochastic perturbation theory. Formulating QED on the lattice, we develop a method to calculate the coefficients of the perturbative series of g − 2 without the use of the Feynman diagrams. We demonstrate the feasibility of the method by performing a computation up to the α3 order and compare with the known results. This program provides us with a totally independent check of the results obtained by the Feynman diagrams and will be useful for the estimations of not-yet-calculated higher order values. This work provides an example of the application of the numerical stochastic perturbation theory to physical quantities, for which the external states have to be taken on-shell.

Pion Mass Dependence

One of the systematic errors in some of the current lattice computations of the HVP contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment g – 2 is that associated with the extrapolation to the physical pion mass. We investigate this extrapolation assuming lattice pion masses in the range of 220 to 440 MeV with the help of two-loop chiral perturbation theory, and find that such an extrapolation is unlikely to lead to control of this systematic error at the 1% level. This remains true even if various proposed tricks to improve the chiral extrapolation are taken into account.

This article deals with the form factor of the anomalous magnetic moment distribution of proton and neutron. It is first shown with three examples that the magnetic root mean square radius cannot be taken from the existing experiments with sufficient accuracy. Satisfactory agreement with the experimental results can be obtained with arbitrary values of rm2. We calculate the magnetic moment form factors depending on the energy momentum transfer q2 in perturbation theory and the 2 π meson contribution to the isotopic vector form factor with dispersion relations also in relation to q2, with and without π meson form factor. We get better agreement of the shape of the form factor with the phenomenological form factor of HOFSTADTER at the expense of the static magnetic moment. But the contribution of the high q2 values is still too large i.e. the structure is somewhat too concentrated **

I study a class of Wilsonian formulations of non-Abelian gauge theories in algebraic noncovariant gauges where the Wilsonian infrared cutoff Λ is inserted as a mass term for the propagating fields. In this way the Ward-Takahashi identities are preserved to all scales. Nevertheless the BRS-invariance in broken and the theory is gauge-dependent and unphysical at Λ≠ 0. Then I discuss the infrared limit Λ→0. I show that the singularities of the axial gauge choice are avoided in planar gauge and in light-cone gauge. Finally the rectangular Wilson loop of size 2L×2T is evaluated at lowest order in perturbation theory and a noncommutativity between the limits Λ→0 and T→∞ is pointed out.

Power Counting

After giving an overview about regularisation and renormalisation methods, this chapter shows the calculation of the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron in QED. Using a power counting argument, non-, super- and renormalisable theories are distinguish from one another. The structure of the divergences and perturbative renormalisation is discussed for the case of the λϕ‎4 theory. regularisation methods, renormalisation schemes, anomalous magnetic moment of the electron, power counting, renormalisation of the λϕ‎4 theory.
