The QCD sector at low-energies is described in terms of the composite effective fields. For fermions and scalars the massless limit shows perfect correspondence with the conformal anomaly, but similar limit in a massive vector case requires an extra compensating scalar. In all three cases the decoupling goes smoothly and monotonic. A particularly interesting case is the renormalization group flow in the theory with broken supersymmetry, where the sign of one of the beta-functions changes on the way from the UV to IR.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2003-03-14T14:52:01.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "standard model", "curved space", "decoupling", "vacuum metric-dependent action", "renormalization group flow" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "IOP", "journal": "Journal of High Energy Physics", "year": 2003, "month": "Jun", "volume": 2003, "number": 6, "pages": "004" }, "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 27, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable", "inspire": 615167, "adsabs": "2003JHEP...06..004G" } } }
