RENORMALIZATION IN QUANTUM FIELD THEORY (AFTER R. BORCHERDS)

摘要

The aim of this manuscript is to provide a complete and precise formulation of the renormalization picture for perturbative Quantum Field Theory (pQFT) on general curved spacetimes introduced by R. Borcherds in [10]. More precisely, we give a full proof of the free and transitive action of the group of renormalizations on the set of Feynman measures associated with a local precut propagator, and that such a set is nonempty if the propagator is further assumed to be manageable and of cut type. Even though we follow the general principles laid by Borcherds in [10], we have in many cases proceeded differently to prove his claims, and we have also needed to add some hypotheses to be able to prove the corresponding statements.
