Virtual Workshop

Description

Renormalization Hopf algebras represent a pro-algebraic group linking the BPHZ and Dyson renormalization formulas, where Feynman graphs are "virtual" coordinates for correlation functions and renormalization factors. In this talk I clarify the mathematical background of this statement and show how it can help improve the BPHZ formula. Time permitting, I also show how this naturally leads to a non-associative (perturbative) renormalization group for non-scalar theories.
