String-derived renormalization of Yang-Mills theory

چکیده
We review the application of bosonic string techniques to the calculation of renormalization constants and effective actions in Yang-Mills theory. We display the multiloop string formulas needed to compute Yang-Mills amplitudes, and we discuss how the renormalizations of proper vertices can be extracted in the field theory limit. We show how string techniques lead to the background field method in field theory, and indicate how the gauge invariance of the multiloop effective action can be inferred form the string formalism.

The field theory limit of multiloop string amplitudes
We report on recent progress in the use of string techniques for the computation of field theory amplitudes. We show how one–loop renormalization constants in Yang–Mills theory can be computed using the open spinning string, we review the calculation of two–loop scalar amplitudes with the bosonic string, and we briefly indicate how the technique can be applied to the two–loop vacuum bubbles of ...
متن کاملThe Renormalization Group Approach to the Confining String
The renormalization group approach towards the string representation of non abelian gauge theories translates, in terms of the string sigma model beta function equations, the renormalization group evolution of the gauge coupling constant and Zamolodchikov‘s c function. Tachyon stability, glueball mass gap, renormalization group evolution of the c function and the area law for the Wilson loop ar...
متن کاملTwo-loop Feynman Diagrams in Yang-Mills Theory from Bosonic String Amplitudes
We present intermediate results of an ongoing investigation which attempts a generalization of the well known one-loop Bern Kosower rules of Yang-Mills theory to higher loop orders. We set up a general procedure to extract the field theoretical limit of bosonic open string diagrams, based on the sewing construction of higher loop world sheets. It is tested with oneand two-loop scalar field theo...
متن کاملRenormalization Constants from String Theory
We review some recent results on the calculation of renormalization constants in Yang-Mills theory using open bosonic strings. The technology of string amplitudes, supplemented with an appropriate continuation off the mass shell, can be used to compute the ultraviolet divergences of dimensionally regularized gauge theories. The results show that the infinite tension limit of string amplitudes c...
متن کاملMass corrections in string theory and lattice field theory
Kaluza-Klein compactifications of higher dimensional Yang–Mills theories contain a number of four dimensional scalars corresponding to the internal components of the gauge field. While at tree-level the scalar zero modes are massless, it is well known that quantum corrections make them massive. We compute these radiative corrections at 1–loop in an effective field theory framework, using the ba...
