Insertion and Elimination: the doubly infinite Lie algebra of Feynman graphs

High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-06-26 v2 Quantum Algebra

Abstract

The Lie algebra of Feynman graphs gives rise to two natural representations, acting as derivations on the commutative Hopf algebra of Feynman graphs, by creating or eliminating subgraphs. Insertions and eliminations do not commute, but rather establish a larger Lie algebra of derivations which we here determine.
