Theory review for hadronic corrections to $g-2$

Abstract

We review Standard-Model evaluations of hadronic contributions to the muon anomalous magnetic moment $g-2$. Most space is devoted to the hadronic vacuum polarization contribution, in view of the discrepancy between the data-based dispersive evaluation and the lattice evaluation by the BMW collaboration.
