Abstract
The running coupling constants are introduced in Quantum Mechanics and their evolution is described by the help of the renormalization group equation. The harmonic oscillator and the propagation on curved spaces are presented as examples. The hamiltonian and the lagrangian scaling relations are obtained. These evolution equations are used to construct low energy effective models.
