Position-space renormalization schemes for four-quark operators in HQET

X-space schemes are gauge-invariant, regulator-independent renormalization schemes that are defined by requiring position-space correlation functions of gauge-invariant operators to be equal to their noninteracting values at particular kinematic points. These schemes can be used to nonperturbatively renormalize composite operators in Lattice Quantum Chromodynamics (LQCD), and by computing matching coefficients between the X-space scheme and $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ \( \overline{\textrm{MS}} \) in the dimensionally-regulated continuum, matrix elements calculated with LQCD can be converted to $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ \( \overline{\textrm{MS}} \) -renormalized matrix elements. Using X-space schemes for Heavy Quark Effective Theory (HQET) operators has the additional benefit that appropriate ratios of position-space correlation functions cancel the power-divergent static-quark self-energy of Lattice HQET nonperturbatively. This work presents the O(α_S) matching coefficients between X-space renormalized four-quark flavor-nonsinglet HQET operators relevant for the lifetimes of charm- and bottom-hadrons, and four-quark HQET operators relevant for mixing between neutral mesons containing a heavy quark, such as B − $\overline{B}$ \( \overline{B} \) mixing.
