The use of the dimensional regularization in the on-mass-shell renormalization scheme sometimes fails to locally cancel the ultraviolet divergence for a class of diagrams in the two-loop order. The mechanism is discussed based on an example…

Renormalization is a well-known technique to get rid of ultraviolet (UV) singularities. When relying on Dimensional Regularization (DREG), these become manifest as $\epsilon$-poles, allowing to define counter-terms with useful recursive…
