Bilinear quark operators in the RI/SMOM scheme at three loops (2002.10894v2)

Abstract: We consider the renormalization of the matrix elements of the bilinear quark operators $\bar{\psi}\psi$, $\bar{\psi}\gamma_\mu\psi$, and $\bar{\psi}\sigma_{\mu\nu}\psi$ at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD perturbation theory at the symmetric subtraction point. This allows us to obtain conversion factors between the $\overline{\rm MS}$ scheme and the regularization invariant symmetric momentum subtraction (RI/SMOM) scheme. The obtained results can be used to reduce the errors in determinations of quark masses from lattice QCD simulations. The results are given in Landau gauge.
