We renormalize a six dimensional cubic theory to four loops in the MSbar scheme where the scalar is in a bi-adjoint representation. The underlying model was originally derived in a problem relating to gravity being a double copy of Yang-Mills theory. As a field theory in its own right we find that it has a curious property in that while unexpectedly there is no one loop contribution to the $beta$-function the two loop coefficient is negative. It therefore represents an example where asymptotic freedom is determined by the two loop term of the $beta$-function. We also examine a multi-adjoint cubic theory in order to see whether this is a more universal property of these models.

It is commonly stated that because terms in the beta function of a theory at the level of $ell ge 3$ loops and higher are scheme-dependent, it is possible to define scheme transformations that can be used to remove these terms, at least in the vicini
ty of zero coupling. We prove that this is not, in general, possible in the situation where a beta function is not identically zero but has a vanishing one-loop term.
In this work, we use the framework of effective field theory to couple Einsteins Gravity to Quantum Electrodynamics (QED) and determine the gravitational corrections to the two-loop beta function of the electric charge. Our results indicate that grav
itational corrections do not alter the running behavior of the electric charge; on the contrary, we observe that it gives a positive contribution to the beta function, making the electric charge grow faster. The opposite occurs to the $lambda$ beta function in the Einstein-Scalar-QED system, where at one-loop order we observe that gravity gives a negative contribution to the $lambda$ beta function, indicating that, if the scalar particle has a mass a few orders below Planck scale, $lambda$ can be asymptotically free.
We have computed the five-loop corrections to the scale dependence of the renormalized coupling constant for Quantum Chromodynamics (QCD), its generalization to non-Abelian gauge theories with a simple compact Lie group, and for Quantum Electrodynami
cs (QED). Our analytical result, obtained using the background field method, infrared rearrangement via a new diagram-by-diagram implementation of the R* operation and the Forcer program for massless four-loop propagators, confirms the QCD and QED results obtained by only one group before. The numerical size of the five-loop corrections is briefly discussed in the standard MSbar scheme for QCD with n_f flavours and for pure SU(N) Yang-Mills theory. Their effect in QCD is much smaller than the four-loop contributions, even at rather low scales.
We glance back at the short period of the great discoveries between 1970 and 1974 that led to the restablishment of Quantum Field Theory and the discovery of the Standard Model of Elementary Particles, in particular Quantum Chromodynamics, and ask ourselves where we stand now.
An effective field theory model of the massive Yang-Mills theory is considered. Assuming that the renormalized coupling constants of non-renormalizable interactions are suppressed by a large scale parameter it is shown that in analogy to the non-abel
ian gauge invariant theory the dimensionless coupling constant vanishes logarithmically for large values of the renormalization scale parameter.
