Renormalization Group Study of Chern-Simons Field Coupled to Scalar Matter in a Modified BPHZ Subtraction Scheme

High Energy Physics - Theory 2009-10-31 v1

Abstract

We apply a soft version of the BPHZ subtraction scheme to the computation of two-loop corrections from an Abelian Chern-Simons field coupled to (massive) scalar matter with a λ(ΦΦ)2\lambda(\Phi^\dag\Phi)^2 and ν(ΦΦ)3\nu(\Phi^\dag\Phi)^3 self-interactions. The two-loop renormalization group functions are calculated. We compare our results with those in the literature.
