Renormalization group summation and analytic continuation from spacelike to timeline regions

Analytic continuation of the perturbative series from spacelike to timelike regions is performed using renormalization group summed perturbation theory (RGSPT). This method provides an all-order summation of kinematic ``\(\pi^2\)-terms'' accessible from a given order of a perturbative series. The impact of the summation of these terms is studied for Higgs boson decay and electromagnetic R-ratio in the perturbative QCD. Results obtained using RGSPT have improved convergence behavior in addition to significantly reduced renormalization scale dependence compared to fixed-order perturbation theory (FOPT). The higher-order behavior using the Padé approximant is also studied for processes considered.
