The Pinch Technique and Its Applications to Non-Abelian Gauge Theories

by Daniele Binosi, Joannis Papavassiliou, John M. Cornwall

Non-Abelian gauge theories, such as quantum chromodynamics (QCD) or electroweak theory, are best studied with the aid of Green's functions that are gauge-invariant off-shell, but unlike for the photon in quantum electrodynamics, conventional graphical constructions fail. The pinch technique provides a systematic framework for constructing such Green's functions, and has many useful applications. Beginning with elementary one-loop examples, this book...
