In this work we study the axial contributions to the hadronic light-by-light piece of the muon anomalous magnetic moment using the framework of resonance chiral theory. As a result, we obtain $a_{mu}^{textrm{HLbL};A} = left(0.8^{+3.5}_{-0.1}right)cdot 10^{-11}$, that might suggest a smaller value than most recent calculations, underlining the need of future work along this direction. In particular, we find that our results depend critically on the asymptotic behavior of the form factors, and as such, emphasizes the relevance of future experiments for large photon virtualities. In addition, we present general results regarding the involved axial form factors description, comprehensively examining (and relating) the current approaches, that shall be of general interest.

The quark-connected part of the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the muons anomalous magnetic moment is computed using lattice QCD with chiral fermions. We report several significant algorithmic improvements and demonstrate their effectiveness through specific calculations which show a reduction in statistical errors by more than an order of magnitude. The most realistic of these calculations is performed with a near-physical, $171$ MeV pion mass on a $(4.6;mathrm{fm})^3$ spatial volume using the $32^3times 64$ Iwasaki+DSDR gauge ensemble of the RBC/UKQCD Collaboration.
We report preliminary results for the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. Several ensembles using 2+1 flavors of Mobius domain-wall fermions, generated by the RBC/UKQCD collaborations, are employed to take the continuum and infinite volume limits of finite volume lattice QED+QCD. We find $a_mu^{rm HLbL} = (7.41pm6.33)times 10^{-10}$
We present a first model-independent calculation of $pipi$ intermediate states in the hadronic-light-by-light (HLbL) contribution to the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon $(g-2)_mu$ that goes beyond the scalar QED pion loop. To this end we combine a recently developed dispersive description of the HLbL tensor with a partial-wave expansion and demonstrate that the known scalar-QED result is recovered after partial-wave resummation. Using dispersive fits to high-statistics data for the pion vector form factor, we provide an evaluation of the full pion box, $a_mu^{pitext{-box}}=-15.9(2)times 10^{-11}$. We then construct suitable input for the $gamma^*gamma^*topipi$ helicity partial waves based on a pion-pole left-hand cut and show that for the dominant charged-pion contribution this representation is consistent with the two-loop chiral prediction and the COMPASS measurement for the pion polarizability. This allows us to reliably estimate $S$-wave rescattering effects to the full pion box and leads to our final estimate for the sum of these two contributions: $a_mu^{pitext{-box}} + a_{mu,J=0}^{pipi,pitext{-pole LHC}}=-24(1)times 10^{-11}$.
The $pi^0$ pole constitutes the lowest-lying singularity of the hadronic light-by-light (HLbL) tensor, and thus provides the leading contribution in a dispersive approach to HLbL scattering in the anomalous magnetic moment of the muon $(g-2)_mu$. It is unambiguously defined in terms of the doubly-virtual pion transition form factor, which in principle can be accessed in its entirety by experiment. We demonstrate that, in the absence of a direct measurement, the full space-like doubly-virtual form factor can be reconstructed very accurately based on existing data for $e^+e^-to 3pi$, $e^+e^-to e^+e^-pi^0$, and the $pi^0togammagamma$ decay width. We derive a representation that incorporates all the low-lying singularities of the form factor, matches correctly onto the asymptotic behavior expected from perturbative QCD, and is suitable for the evaluation of the $(g-2)_mu$ loop integral. The resulting value, $a_mu^{pi^0text{-pole}}=62.6^{+3.0}_{-2.5}times 10^{-11}$, for the first time, represents a complete data-driven determination of the pion-pole contribution with fully controlled uncertainty estimates. In particular, we show that already improved singly-virtual measurements alone would allow one to further reduce the uncertainty in $a_mu^{pi^0text{-pole}}$.
We discuss the use of dispersion relations for the evaluation of the pseudoscalar contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment. We point out that, in the absence of experimental data, reconstruction of light-by-light scattering amplitudes from their absorptive parts is ambiguous and requires additional theoretical input. The need for an additional input makes dispersive computations of the hadronic light-by-light scattering contribution to g-2 akin to phenomenological models, in spite of pretense to the contrary. In particular, we argue that the recent proposal [1], based on the dispersive approach, satisfies short distance constraints at the expense of unjustifiably large deviations from the chiral limit.
