Plenter, J., & Rodrigo, G. (2021). Asymptotic expansions through the loop-tree duality. Eur. Phys. J. C, 81(4), 320–13pp.
Abstract: Asymptotic expansions of Feynman amplitudes in the loop-tree duality formalism are implemented at integrand-level in the Euclidean space of the loop three-momentum, where the hierarchies among internal and external scales are well-defined. The ultraviolet behaviour of the individual contributions to the asymptotic expansion emerges only in the first terms of the expansion and is renormalized locally in four space-time dimensions. These two properties represent an advantage over the method of Expansion by Regions. We explore different approaches in different kinematical limits, and derive explicit asymptotic expressions for several benchmark configurations.

Actis, S. et al, & Rodrigo, G. (2010). Quest for precision in hadronic cross sections at low energy: Monte Carlo tools vs. experimental data. Eur. Phys. J. C, 66(3-4), 585–686.
Abstract: We present the achievements of the last years of the experimental and theoretical groups working on hadronic cross section measurements at the low-energy e (+) e (-) colliders in Beijing, Frascati, Ithaca, Novosibirsk, Stanford and Tsukuba and on tau decays. We sketch the prospects in these fields for the years to come. We emphasise the status and the precision of the Monte Carlo generators used to analyse the hadronic cross section measurements obtained as well with energy scans as with radiative return, to determine luminosities and tau decays. The radiative corrections fully or approximately implemented in the various codes and the contribution of the vacuum polarisation are discussed.

Bierenbaum, I., Buchta, S., Draggiotis, P., Malamos, I., & Rodrigo, G. (2013). Tree-loop duality relation beyond single poles. J. High Energy Phys., 03(3), 025–24pp.
Abstract: We develop the Tree-Loop Duality Relation for two- and three-loop integrals with multiple identical propagators (multiple poles). This is the extension of the Duality Relation for single poles and multi-loop integrals derived in previous publications. We prove a generalization of the formula for single poles to multiple poles and we develop a strategy for dealing with higher-order pole integrals by reducing them to single pole integrals using Integration By Parts.

Altheimer, A. et al, Fassi, F., Gonzalez de la Hoz, S., Kaci, M., Oliver Garcia, E., Rodrigo, G., et al. (2014). Boosted objects and jet substructure at the LHC. Eur. Phys. J. C, 74(3), 2792–24pp.
Abstract: This report of the BOOST2012 workshop presents the results of four working groups that studied key aspects of jet substructure. We discuss the potential of first-principle QCD calculations to yield a precise description of the substructure of jets and study the accuracy of state-of-the-art Monte Carlo tools. Limitations of the experiments' ability to resolve substructure are evaluated, with a focus on the impact of additional (pile-up) proton proton collisions on jet substructure performance in future LHC operating scenarios. A final section summarizes the lessons learnt from jet substructure analyses in searches for new physics in the production of boosted top quarks.

Sborlini, G. F. R., de Florian, D., & Rodrigo, G. (2015). Polarized triple-collinear splitting functions at NLO for processes with photons. J. High Energy Phys., 03(3), 021–30pp.
Abstract: We compute the polarized splitting functions in the triple collinear limit at next-to-leading order accuracy (NLO) in the strong coupling alpha(S), for the splitting processes gamma -> qq gamma, gamma -> qqg and g -> qq gamma. The divergent structure of each splitting function was compared to the predicted behaviour according to Catani's formula. The results obtained in this paper are compatible with the unpolarized splitting functions computed in a previous article. Explicit results for NLO corrections are presented in the context of conventional dimensional regularization (CDR).
