Duality between Correlation Functions and Wilson Loops in Gauge Theory from Effective Field Theory
Author(s): Hao Chen, Pier Francesco Monni, Zhaoyan Pang, Gherardo Vita, and Hua Xing Zhu
In this Letter, we initiate a systematic study of the $n$-point correlation functions (CFs) in gauge theories in the sequential light-cone (SLC) limit. Focusing on QCD, we formulate a factorization theorem for the CF of four vector currents in this limit using tools from soft-collinear effective fie… [Phys. Rev.
