I give an overview of recent calculations of the renormalization group \(\beta \)-function and the quark mass anomalous dimension at the 4-loop order of perturbative Quantum Chromodynamics. In addition I discuss the order \(\alpha _s^3\) contribution to the Ellis-Jaffe sum rule for the structure function \(g_1\) of polarized deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering. The calculations discussed in this talk were performed in collaborations with S.A Larin and J.A.M. Vermaseren.

We analyze the second order QCD corrections to the fragmentation functions \(F_k^{\rm H}(x,Q^2)\) (\(k=T,L,A\)) which are measured in \(e^+~e^-\) annihilation From these fragmentation functions one can derive the integrated transverse (\(\sigma _T\)), longitudinal (\(\sigma _L\)) and asymmetric (\(\sigma _A\)) cross sections. The sum \(\sigma _{\rm tot}=\sigma _T+\sigma _L\) corrected up to order \(\alpha _s^2\) agrees with the well known result in the literature. It turns out that the order \(\alpha _s^2\) corrections to the transverse and asymmetric quantities are small in contrast to our findings for \(F_L^{\rm H}(x,Q^2)\) and \(\sigma _L\) where they turn out to be large. Therefore in the latter case one gets a better agreement between the theoretical predictions and the data obtained from he LEP experiments.

The role of various symmetries in the evaluation of splitting functions and coefficient functions is discussed. The scale invariance in hard processes is known to be a guiding tool to understand the dynamics. We discuss the constraints on splitting functions coming from various symmetries such as scale, conformal and supersymmetry. We also discuss the Drell–Levy–Yan relation among splitting and coefficient functions in various schemes. The relations coming from conformal symmetry are also presented.

The method of the large mass expansion (LME) is investigated for selfenergy and vertex functions in two-loop order. It has the technical advantage that in many cases the expansion coefficients can be expressed analytically. As long as only one non-zero external momentum squared, \(q^2\), is involved also the Taylor expansion (TE) w.r.t. small \(q^2\) yields high precision results in a domain sufficient for most applications. In the case of only one non-zero mass \(M\) and only one external momentum squared, the expansion w.r.t. \(q^2/M^2\) is identical for the TE and the LME. In this case the combined techniques yield analytic expressions for many diagrams, which are quite easy to handle numerically.

An algorithm for the reduction of Feynman integrals with any number of loops and external momenta to a minimal set of basic integrals is proposed. The method is based on the new algorithms for evaluating tensor integrals, representation of generalized recurrence relations for a given kind of integrals as a linear system of PDEs and the reduction of this system to a standard form. Basic integrals reveal as parametric derivatives of the system in the standard form and the number of basic integrals in the minimal set is determined by the dimension of the solution space of the system of PDEs.

The precise electroweak measurements obtained from LEP and SLD Z data are presented. Since 1996 LEP has been running above the W pair threshold, and results on the mass and couplings of the W boson are also given. The LEP results are combined with the SLD, Tevatron and \(\nu \)-nucleon results to infer the mass of the Higgs boson. This is especially interesting in light of recent improvements in the calculation of the radiative corrections.

To avoid loss of sensitivity in the search for new physics in single- and multi-photon final states with large missing energy at LEP, precise predictions for the Standard Model irreducible background are required. At LEP1 the theoretical situation is satisfactory. Going to LEP2, some improvements are necessary. To this aim, the matrix elements for the processes \(e^+ e^- \to \nu \bar \nu n\gamma \), with \(n=1,2,3\), are exactly computed in the Standard Model, including the possibility of anomalous couplings for single-photon production. Due to the presence of observed photons in the final state, particular attention is paid to the treatment of higher-order QED corrections. Comparisons with existing calculations are shown and commented. An improved version of the event generator NUNUGPV is presented.

We present the results of the calculation of the ‘photon’ + 1 jet rate at \({\cal O}(\alpha \alpha _{s})\) for LEP energies. By comparing these results with the data from the ALEPH Collaboration we make a next-to-leading order determination of the quark-to-photon fragmentation function \(D_{q\to \gamma }(z,\mu _{F})\) at \({\cal O}(\alpha \alpha _{s})\). The predictions obtained using this fragmentation function for the isolated rate, defined as the ‘photon’ + 1 jet rate for \(z\gt 0.95\), are found in good agreement with the ALEPH data. The next-to-leading order corrections are moderate demonstrating the perturbative stability of this particular isolated photon definition. We have also computed the inclusive photon energy distribution and found good agreement with the OPAL data.

Higher-order contributions to the precision observables \(\Delta r\), \(\sin ^2 \theta _{\rm eff}\) and \({\mit \Gamma }_l\) are discussed. The Higgs-mass dependence of the observables is investigated at the two-loop level, and exact results are derived for the Higgs-dependent two-loop corrections associated with fermions. The top-quark corrections are compared with the results obtained by an expansion in the top-quark mass up to next-to-leading order. For the pure fermion-loop contributions to \(\Delta r\) results up to four-loop order are derived. They allow to investigate the validity of the commonly used resummation of the leading fermionic contributions to \(\Delta r\).

In particular, the low-energy behaviour of electron-positron and photon-photon annihilation into gravitinos are carefully discussed, and a new "low-energy theorem" is established in the electron-positron case. These results are applied to derive model independent bounds on the supersymmetry breaking scale and to organize the search for a superlight gravitino at high-energy colliders.

It will be argued that the \(J\,/\,\psi \) (\(\psi '\)) decays into baryon-antibaryon pairs are dominated by the valence Fock-state contributions. \(P\)-wave charmonium decays, on the other hand, receive strong contributions from the \(c\overline {c} g\) Fock states since the valence Fock-state contributions are suppressed in these reactions. Numerical results for the decay widths of \(J\,/\,\psi (\psi ') \to B\overline {B}\) and \(\chi _{c J}\to P\overline {P}\) will be also presented and compared to data.

The next-to-leading-order (NLO) analysis of the decay \(B \to X_s \gamma \) is reviewed in this talk. The theoretical framework and the various ingredients for a theoretical prediction of the branching ratio Br\((B\rightarrow X_s\gamma )\) are briefly outlined. The numerical analysis focuses on an estimate of the theoretical uncertainties. It is pointed out that the theoretical error is presently dominated by parametric uncertainties that may be reduced in the future. In view of oncoming measurements at future B factories this underlines the importance of the decay \(B \to X_s \gamma \) for the search for new physics.

The scope of constrained differential renormalization is to provide renormalized expressions for Feynman graphs, preserving at the same time the Ward identities of the theory. It has been shown recently that this can be done consistently at least to one loop for abelian and non-abelian gauge theories.

The decoupling relations for the strong coupling constant, \(\alpha _s\), and the light quark masses are considered in the framework of perturbative QCD. A low-energy theorem is derived which connects the decoupling constants to the coefficient functions of the effective Lagrangian responsible for the decay of a Higgs boson in the intermediate-mass range. The evaluation of the imaginary part of the correlators formed by the corresponding operators completes the calculation of the decay of the Higgs boson into hadrons.

It is shown that conventional mass renormalization, when applied to photonic or gluonic corrections to unstable particle propagators, leads to non-convergent series in the resonance region. A solution of this problem, based on the concepts of pole mass and width, is presented. In contrast with the \(Z\) case, the conventional on-shell definition of mass for \(W\) bosons and unstable quarks contains an unbounded gauge dependence in next-to-leading order. The on-shell and pole definitions of width are shown to coincide if terms of \(O({\mit \Gamma }^2)\) and higher are neglected, but not otherwise.

High statistics data have been presented by ZEUS for hard photoproduction of \(D^*\) mesons. The measured cross sections for large \(p^{D^*}_{\perp }\), \(\eta ^{D^*}\) lie above those predicted by QCD-NLO calculations. There is a substantial contribution from resolved photons indicating the existence of charm excitation in the photon. Photoproduction of beauty quarks has been observed for the first time by H1. The measured cross section lies above the theoretical expectations calculated in QCD-LO by a substantial factor. First results on quasielastic photoproduction of Upsilons have been presented by ZEUS. The observed cross section lies above the theoretical predictions. QCD-NLO fits to data for the proton structure function \(F_2\) from H1 and ZEUS have provided rather precise determinations of the density of gluons in the proton. The resulting predictions for the charm contribution \(F^c_2\) to \(F_2\) are consistent with \(F^c_2\) obtained directly from charm production by DIS. An analysis of \(F_2\) data at small \(Q^2\) indicates that the transition from soft hadron-like scattering to DIS occurs somewhere between 0.5 and 3 GeV\(^2\). A QCD-NLO analysis by ZEUS with \(F_2\) measurements starting at \(Q^2 = 1\) GeV\(^2\) shows that a good description of the data can be obtained. Surprisingly, while at \(Q^2 = 7, 20\) GeV\(^2\) the gluon density (\(g\))at small \(x\) is much larger than that for the singlet quarks (\({\mit \Sigma }\)), the situation appears to be reversed at \(Q^2 = 1\) GeV\(^2\) where \(g \lt {\mit \Sigma }\). Diffraction dissociation of the virtual photon into high mass hadrons represents a substantial part of the DIS cross section. Its energy dependence is similar to that of the sum of all DIS channels and leads to a pomeron trajectory which lies above that observed in hadron-hadron scattering. The behaviour of the diffractive structure function suggests a substantial contribution from partonic interactions. H1 and ZEUS previously had reported an excess of events above the Standard Model predictions at large \(Q^2\), high \(x\) seen in the 1994-96 data. Analysis of the 1997 data, corresponding to about the same integrated luminosity, has not added to this excess.
