abstract
In this paper we show how gauge symmetries in an effective theory can be used to simplify proofs of factorization formulae in highly energetic hadronic processes. We use the soft-collinear effective theory, generalized to deal with back-to-back jets of collinear particles. Our proofs do not depend on the choice of a particular gauge, and the formalism is applicable to both exclusive and inclusive factorization. As examples we treat the pi-gamma form factor (gamma gamma* -> pi^0), light meson form factors (gamma* M -> M), as well as deep inelastic scattering (e- p -> e- X), Drell-Yan (p pbar -> X l+ l-), and deeply virtual Compton scattering (gamma* p -> gamma(*) p).

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.
SCET factorization confirms the double-logarithmic resummation for B_c to eta_c form factors up to three loops and derives the iterative structure from RG equations of light-cone distribution amplitudes with cutoff regularization.
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.
pQCD calculations predict ~90% longitudinal polarization in B_c to J/psi or psi(2S) plus rho or K* mediated light meson pairs, with one branching ratio ratio matching LHCb at 2.67 vs 2.80.
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.
