Abstract
The Dupont homotopy, a classical construction in the algebraic topology of triangulated smooth manifolds, has been revived in the last decade in the construction of an effective field theory where it appears as a propagator. In this paper, we ask a question of relevance to the renormalization group of this theory: is Dupont's construction compatible with stellar subdivision?
