This article aims to give a short introduction into Hopf-algebraic aspects of renormalization, enjoying growing attention for more than a decade by now. As most available literature is concerned with the minimal subtraction scheme, we like…
We study a noncommutative deformation of the commutative Hopf algebra of rooted trees which was shown by Connes and Kreimer to be related to the mathematical structure of renormalization in quantum field theories. The requirement of the…
We extend the results we obtained in an earlier work. The cocommutative case of rooted ladder trees is generalized to a full Hopf algebra of (decorated) rooted trees. For Hopf algebra characters with target space of Rota-Baxter type, the…
We investigate to what extent renormalization can be understood as an algebraic manipulation on concatenated one-loop integrals. We find that the resulting algebra indicates a useful connection to knot theory as well as number theory and…
This manuscript stands at the interface between combinatorial Hopf algebra theory and renormalization theory. Its plan is as follows: Section 1 is the introduction, and contains as well an elementary invitation to the subject. The rest of…
We show that the process of renormalization encapsules a Hopf algebra structure in a natural manner. This sheds light on the recently proposed connection between knots and renormalization theory.
We establish Sakakibara's differential equations in a matrix setting for the counter term (respectively renormalized character) in Connes-Kreimer's Birkhoff decomposition in any connected graded Hopf algebra, thus including Feynman rules in…
We provide results on the smoothness of normalisers in connected reductive algebraic groups $G$ over fields $k$ of positive characteristic $p$. Specifically we we give bounds on $p$ which guarantee that normalisers of subalgebras of…
Moving beyond the classical additive and multiplicative approaches, we present an "exponential" method for perturbative renormalization. Using Dyson's identity for Green's functions as well as the link between the Faa di Bruno Hopf algebra…
Central in the Hopf algebra approach to the renormalization of perturbative quantum field theory of Connes and Kreimer is their Algebraic Birkhoff Decomposition. In this tutorial article, we introduce their decomposition and prove it by the…
In this paper, we study compatible Leibniz algebras. We characterize compatible Leibniz algebras in terms of Maurer-Cartan elements of a suitable differential graded Lie algebra. We define a cohomology theory of compatible Leibniz algebras…
This masters thesis reviews the algebraic formulation of renormalization using Hopf algebras as pioneered by Dirk Kreimer and applies it to a toy model of quantum field theory given through iterated insertions of a single primitive…
The decomposition problem of the enveloping algebra of a simple Lie algebra is reconsidered combining both the analytical and the algebraic approach, showing its relation with the internal labelling problem with respect to a nilpotent…
A new singular perturbation method based on the Lie symmetry group is presented to a system of difference equations. This method yields consistent derivation of a renormalization group equation which gives an asymptotic solution of the…
These lecture notes aim to present the algebraic theory of regularity structures as developed in arXiv:1303.5113, arXiv:1610.08468, and arXiv:1711.10239. The main aim of this theory is to build a systematic approach to renormalisation of…
We describe a unification of several apparently unrelated factorizations arisen from quantum field theory, vertex operator algebras, combinatorics and numerical methods in differential equations. The unification is given by a Birkhoff type…
The main purpose of this paper is to study cohomology and develop a deformation theory of restricted Lie algebras in positive characteristic $p>0$. In the case $p\geq3$, it is shown that the deformations of restricted Lie algebras are…
In this paper we study a cohomology theory of compatible Leibniz algebra. We construct a graded Lie algebra whose Maurer-Cartan elements characterize the structure of compatible Leibniz algebras. Using this, we study cohomology,…
We briefly review the Hopf algebra structure arising in the renormalization of quantum field theories. We construct the Hopf algebra explicitly for a simple toy model and show how renormalization is achieved for this particular model.
We demonstrate that the fundamental algebraic structure underlying the Connes-Kreimer Hopf algebra -- the insertion pre-Lie structure on graphs -- corresponds directly to the canonical pre-Lie structure of polynomial vector fields. Using…
