abstract
We study a Lagrangian formalism that avoids double counting in effective field theories where distinct fields are used to describe different infrared momentum regions for the same particle. The formalism leads to extra subtractions in certain diagrams and to a new way of thinking about factorization of modes in quantum field theory. In non-relativistic field theories, the subtractions remove unphysical pinch singularities in box type diagrams, and give a derivation of the known pull-up mechanism between soft and ultrasoft fields which is required by the renormalization group evolution. In a field theory for energetic particles, the soft-collinear effective theory (SCET), the subtractions allow the theory to be defined with different infrared and ultraviolet regulators, remove double counting between soft, ultrasoft, and collinear modes, and give results which reproduce the infrared divergences of the full theory. Our analysis shows that convolution divergences in factorization formul\ae occur due to an overlap of momentum regions. We propose a method that avoids this double counting, which helps to resolve a long standing puzzle with singularities in collinear factorization in QCD. The analysis gives evidence for a factorization in rapidity space in exclusive decays.

Computes N³LO twist-2 matching for linearly polarized gluon TMDs with NNLL small-x resummation for fragmentation functions.
SCET factorization and one-loop matching for polarized DIS g1(x), g2(x) as x approaches 1, including anomalous dimensions and twist-three operator relations.
Ultra-collinear modes cancel to all orders in on-shell massive Sudakov form factors by gauge invariance, preserving SCET_II factorization, with explicit two-loop soft and jet functions computed via eta regulator and NNLL resummation.
Perturbative fragmentation functions approximate ttH production at NLO and yield reliable results in the hybrid prescription at LHC energies.
The work establishes a correspondence between spin-dependent energy correlators and polarized TMDs/NECs using SCET, yielding N3LL/N2LL predictions for correlation patterns in current and target fragmentation regions.
