On the connection between the pinch technique and the background field method
Joannis Papavassiliou
The connection between the pinch technique and the background field method is further explored. We show by explicit calculations that the application of the pinch technique in the…

The heavy quark decomposition of the S-matrix and its relation to the pinch technique
Joannis Papavassiliou, Kostas Philippides, Martin Schaden
We propose a decomposition of the S-matrix into individually gauge invariant sub-amplitudes, which are kinematically akin to propagators, vertices, boxes, etc. This decompsition is…

Renormalizable W Self-Energy in the Unitary Gauge via the Pinch Technique
Joannis Papavassiliou, Alberto Sirlin
We use the S-matrix pinch technique to derive to one loop order an effective renormalizable self-energy for the W gauge boson, when the theory is quantized in the unitary gauge. We…
