Bilinear quark operators in the RI/SMOM scheme at three loops

We consider the renormalization of the matrix elements of the bilinear quark operators $\barψψ$, $\barψγ_μψ$, and $\barψσ_{μν}ψ$ at next-to-next-to-next-to-leading order in QCD perturbation theory at the symmetric subtraction point. This allows us to obtain conversion factors between the $\overline{\rm MS}$ scheme and the regularization invariant symmetric momentum subtraction (RI/SMOM) scheme. The obtained results can be used to reduce the errors in determinations of quark masses from lattice QCD simulations. The results are given in Landau gauge.
