Ultraviolet and Infrared Divergences in Implicit Regularization: A Consistent Approach

Abstract: Implicit Regularization is a 4-dimensional regularization initially conceived to treat ultraviolet divergences. It has been successfully tested in several instances in the literature, more specifically in those where Dimensional Regularization does not apply. In the present contribution we extend the method to handle infrared divergences as well. We show that the essential steps which rendered Implicit Regularization adequate in the case of ultraviolet divergences have their counterpart for infrared ones. More… Show more

“…The first restriction is justified because, as we show in Section IV, to implement a mass independent renormalization scheme in IReg we need only the massless basic divergent integrals that we present below. When infrared divergences do appear, a dual version of IReg operating in coordinate space displays infrared divergences as basic divergent integrals as well, in a way that infrared and ultraviolet degrees of freedom are clearly distinguished [32]- [35].…”

“…In fact, the fermionic contributions have been computed recently [24] using 'four-dimensional regularization' (fdr) [25,26]. Similar to 'implicit regularization' [27][28][29] and 'loop regularization' [30,31], fdr is a four-dimensional framework to compute higher-order corrections. Another approach that is being investigated is to use loop-tree duality to deal with IR singularities at the integrand level [32,33].…”

“…As we can see, the infrared divergence is concentrated in the F integral. To proper treat the IR divergence, one could, for example, resort to the IReg generalization presented in [46]. However, in the present case the integral F will cancel out with other contributions, not requiring any further treatment.…”
