We present the first part of a systematic calculation of the two-loop anomalous dimensions in the low-energy effective field theory (LEFT): the effects at dimension five in the power counting. Our calculation is performed in a basis with generic mass matrices, we employ the algebraically consistent 't Hooft-Veltman scheme for $\gamma_5$, and we correct for evanescent as well as chiral-symmetry-breaking effects by including the appropriate finite counterterms. We also provide results for the $CP$-even sector in a scheme that coincides with naive dimensional regularization. We discuss two methods to avoid the explicit construction of gauge-variant operators, which in principle are needed for the cancellation of sub-divergences, even in the background-field method. The two methods are consistent with each other and with existing partial results. Our work is a further step towards a complete EFT framework for physics beyond the Standard Model at next-to-leading-logarithmic accuracy.

  1. One-loop matching of the LEFT to the QCD gradient flow

    hep-ph 2026-01 conditional novelty 7.0

    All one-loop matching coefficients connecting the full baryon- and lepton-number-conserving low-energy effective field theory up to dimension six to the QCD gradient flow are computed.

  2. On the Renormalization Group in EFTs: On-Shell Bases, Ambiguities, and Divergences

    hep-ph 2025-12 conditional novelty 7.0

    Two-loop RG divergences in on-shell EFT bases are spurious: they vanish when non-minimal source terms are included, leaving only unphysical flavor-rotation flow.

  3. Two-Loop Anomalous Dimensions in the LEFT: Dimension-Six Four-Fermion Operators in NDR

    hep-ph 2025-01 unverdicted novelty 7.0

    Derives the full two-loop ADM for four-fermion operators in LEFT in NDR scheme including O(α_s²), O(α_s α) and O(α²) terms, with results for 5/4/3 active flavors implemented in DsixTools.

    hep-ph 2026-07 accept novelty 6.0

    Complete NLO QCD corrections to charmless inclusive non-leptonic B-decay widths are computed for the full BSM operator set, yielding 26 constrained directions in Wilson coefficient space.

  5. Renormalization of the SMEFT to Dimension Eight: Fermionic Interactions II

    hep-ph 2026-06 unverdicted novelty 5.0

    Computes one-loop mixing of bosonic and two-fermion interactions into two-fermion operators in dim-8 SMEFT, leaving only four-fermion to two-fermion mixing to finish the renormalization program.
