On the Casimir operator dependences of QCD amplitudes
In eikonal and quenched approximations at least, it is argued that the strong
coupling fermionic QCD amplitudes obtained with the help of the newly
discovered effective locality property, depart from a dependence on the sole
quadratic Casimir operator, evaluated over the fundamental gauge
group representation. This result, in contradistinction with Perturbation
Theory, but also with a number of non-perturbative approaches such as the MIT
Bag, the Stochastic Vacuum Models, and Lattice simulations, accounts, instead,
for the full algebraic content of the rank-2 -Lie algebraComment: New Eq.(6) is more general than the previous one, and is further
detailed by Eqs.(7) and (8). Conclusion is a bit more detailed, and the

On a fate of hot quantum field theories
It is argued that for hot quantum fields, the necessary effective
perturbation theories may be based on a resummation procedure which, contrarily
to the zero temperature case, differs substantially from the one ordinarily in
use. Important differences show up in the infrared sector of hot quantum field
theories.Comment: Plain TeX-file, 8 pages, no figures. Preprint INLN 2000/1
Proof of a mass singularity free property in high temperature QCD
It is shown that three series of diagrams entering the calculation of some
hot process, are mass (or collinear) singularity free, indeed. This
generalizes a result which was recently established up to the third non trivial
order of (thermal) Perturbation Theory.Comment: 40 pages, 3 figures. to be published in J. Math. Phys. no. 44, 200
On QCD and Effective Locality
In a recent paper it was shown how quark scattering in a quenched, eikonal
model led to a momentum-transfer dependent amplitude expressed in terms of
Halpern's functional integral; and how the requirement of manifest gauge
invariance converted that functional integral into a local integral, capable of
being evaluated with precision by a finite set of numerical integrations. We
here prove that this property of "effective locality" holds true for all quark
processes, without approximation and without exception.Comment: Expanded and Revised in REVTeX 4.1, 14 pages, follow-on work of Eur.

Angular intricacies in hot gauge field theories
It is argued that in hot gauge field theories, "Hard Thermal Loops" leading
order calculations call for a definite sequence of angular averages and
discontinuity (or Imaginary part prescription) operations, and run otherwise
into incorrect results. The ten years old collinear singularity problem of hot
, provides a striking illustration of that fate.Comment: 14 pages, 1 figur
