We present the universal one-loop effective action up to dimension eight after integrating out heavy fermion(s) using the Heat-Kernel method. We have discussed how the Dirac operator being a weak elliptic operator, the fermionic operator still can be written in the form of a strong elliptic one such that the Heat-Kernel coefficients can be used to compute the fermionic effective action. This action captures the footprint of both the CP conserving as well as violating UV interactions. As it does not rely on the specific forms of either UV or low energy theories, can be applicable for a very generic action. Our result encapsulates the effects of heavy fermion loops only.

    One-loop dimension-eight SMEFT matching is derived for complex triplet and two-Higgs-doublet scalar extensions, and the dimension-eight terms are shown to matter for GigaZ electroweak precision projections.

    Including a multiplicative anomaly or using the Heat Kernel method makes the one-loop effective potential in the Fermi gauge independent of the gauge parameter and improves its infrared behaviour, also at finite temperature.
