This is the 5-th paper in the series devoted to explicit formulating of the rules needed to manage an effective field theory of strong interactions in S-matrix sector. We discuss the principles of constructing the meaningful perturbation…

These lectures illustrate the key ideas of modern renormalization theory and effective field theories in the context of simple nonrelativistic quantum mechanics and the Schr\"odinger equation. They also discuss problems in QED, QCD and…
We discuss conceptual aspects of renormalization in the context of effective field theories for the two-nucleon system. It is shown that, contrary to widespread belief, renormalization scheme dependence of the scattering amplitude can only…
We consider the general properties of effective field theories. We note that the freedom to fix the renormalization conditions in the effective field theory is not as great as it seems. The consideration of minimal requirements of…
We discuss the connection between the perturbative and non-perturbative renormalization and related conceptual issues in the few-nucleon sector of the low-energy effective field theory of the strong interactions. General arguments are…
These lectures review the formalism of renormalization in quantum field theories with special regard to effective quantum field theories. While renormalization theory is part of every advanced course on quantum field theory, for effective…
A perturbative description of Large Scale Structure is a cornerstone of our understanding of the observed distribution of matter in the universe. Renormalization is an essential and defining step to make this description physical and…
Regularization and renormalization is discussed in the context of low-energy effective field theory treatments of two or more heavy particles (such as nucleons). It is desirable to regulate the contact interactions from the outset by…
Starting from the Lehmann-Symanzik-Zimmermann reduction theorem, we provide a general procedure to extract S-matrix elements from Green functions in arbitrary renormalization schemes.
We present a comprehensive discussion of the consistency of the effective quantum field theory of a single $Z_2$ symmetric scalar field. The theory is constructed from a bare Euclidean action which at a scale much greater than the…
The renormalization group for maximally anisotropic su(2) current interactions in 2d is shown to be cyclic at one loop. The fermionized version of the model exhibits spin-charge separation of the 4-fermion interactions and has Z_4 symmetry.…
The renormalization procedure is proved to be a rigorous way to get finite answers in a renormalizable class of field theories. We claim, however, that it is redundant if one reduces the requirement of finiteness to S-matrix elements only…
I outline why the renormalisation group is needed to analyse the scale dependence and hence determine the power counting for effective theories of strongly interacting systems. I summarise the results of several such analyses for two- and…
These lectures are centered around a specific problem, the effect of weak repulsive interactions on the transition temperature $T_c$ of a Bose gas. This problem provides indeed a beautiful illustration of many of the techniques which have…
An elementary introduction to perturbative renormalization and renormalization group is presented. No prior knowledge of field theory is necessary because we do not refer to a particular physical theory. We are thus able to disentangle what…
We consider renormalization of effective field theory interactions by discretizing the continuum on a tight-binding lattice. After studying the one-dimensional problem, we address s-wave collisions in three dimensions and relate the bare…
In this talk we show how it is possible to apply the general scheme of effective scattering theory to the description of hadronic processes. We perform the numerical tests of the tree level bootstrap constraints for renormalization…
We illustrate the mass and charge renormalization procedures in quantum field theory using, as an example, a simple model of interacting electrons and photons. It is shown how addition of infinite renormalization counterterms to the…
We study the renormalization of (softly) broken supersymmetric theories at the one loop level in detail. We perform this analysis in a superspace approach in which the supersymmetry breaking interactions are parameterized using spurion…
