Positivity and renormalization of parton densities

John Collins, Ted C. Rogers, Nobuo Sato

There have been recent debates about whether parton densities exactly obey positivity bounds (including the Soffer bound), and whether the bounds should be a…

A new and complete proof of the Landau condition for pinch singularities of Feynman graphs and other integrals

John Collins

The Landau equations give a physically useful criterion for how singularities arise in Feynman amplitudes. Furthermore, they are fundamental to the uses of perturbative QCD, by det…

A new approach to the LSZ reduction formula

John Collins

Lehmann, Symanzik and Zimmermann (LSZ) proved a theorem showing how to obtain the S-matrix from time-ordered Green functions. Their result, the reduction formula, is fundamental to…

The non-triviality of the vacuum in light-front quantization: An elementary treatment

John Collins

It is often stated that the vacuum is trivial when light-front (null-plane) quantization is applied to a quantum field theory, in contrast to the situation with equal-time quantiza…

Graphical Structure of Hadronization and Factorization in Hard Collisions

John Collins, Ted C. Rogers

Models of hadronization of hard jets in QCD are often presented in terms of Feynman-graph structures that can be thought of as effective field theory approximations to dynamical no…

Connecting Different TMD Factorization Formalisms in QCD

John Collins, Ted C. Rogers

In the original Collins-Soper-Sterman (CSS) presentation of the results of transverse-momentum-dependent (TMD) factorization for the Drell-Yan process, results for perturbative coe…
