I find complete consistency between the conventional dimensional regularization scheme and dimensional reduction, but I find that the four dimensional helicity scheme produces incorrect results at next-to-next-to-leading order and singular results at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order. It is not, therefore, a unitary regularization scheme.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v2", "updated": "2011-10-03T20:05:48.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "subjects": [ "14.70.Dj", "12.38.Bx", "11.15.Bt", "11.10.Gh" ], "keywords": [ "higher order corrections", "helicity scheme produces incorrect results", "dimensional helicity scheme produces incorrect", "conventional dimensional regularization scheme" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Physical Review D", "year": 2011, "month": "Jun", "volume": 83, "number": 11, "pages": 114005 }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 0, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 890933, "adsabs": "2011PhRvD..83k4005K" } } }
