abstract
Renormalization-group methods in soft-collinear effective theory are used to perform the resummation of large perturbative logarithms for deep-inelastic scattering in the threshold region x->1. The factorization theorem for the structure function F_2(x,Q^2) for x->1 is rederived in the effective theory, whereby contributions from the hard scale Q^2 and the jet scale Q^2(1-x) are encoded in Wilson coefficients of effective-theory operators. Resummation is achieved by solving the evolution equations for these operators. Simple analytic results for the resummed expressions are obtained directly in momentum space, and are free of the Landau-pole singularities inherent to the traditional moment-space results. We show analytically that the two methods are nonetheless equivalent order by order in the perturbative expansion, and perform a numerical comparison up to next-to-next-to-leading order in renormalization-group improved perturbation theory.

A factorization theorem is derived for the joint measurement of 1-jettiness and jet charge in DIS, introducing a new universal charged jet function that enhances quark flavor separation in initial-state PDFs and probes final-state hadronization.
Defines an IRC-safe one-point charge correlator in DIS, relates it to a new nucleon charge correlator in the forward limit and to TMDs in the back-to-back limit, with SCET derivations verified in QCD to O(alpha_s^2) and resummations to NLL/N3LL.
Derives NLO splitting functions and anomalous dimensions for PDFs in alternative factorization schemes and interprets their leading x-behavior as a modified effective evolution scale.
A conservative BFKL-aware threshold matching scheme is constructed for the NLO forward jet vertex that resums ordinary endpoint logs, preserves NLO accuracy, and is tested against CMS azimuthal observables, showing internal consistency but no simultaneous improvement across all five moments.
NLO+NLL QCD corrections to gluon-fusion ZH production increase the cross-section by ~20% and reduce scale uncertainties from 20% to 12% at LHC energies, combined with Drell-Yan N3LL results.
