The history of renormalization is reviewed with a critical eye, starting with Lorentz's theory of radiation damping, through perturbative QED with Dyson, Gell-Mann & Low, and others, to Wilson's formulation and Polchinski's functional equation, and applications to "triviality", and dark energy in cosmology.

Discussion (0). Continue with ORCID to comment.

  1. A topological approach to renormalization and its geometrical, dimensional consequences

    physics.gen-ph 2019-08 reject novelty 4.0 of 10

    Renormalization of QED is reinterpreted through Hodge decomposition, and the paper claims it forces a two-dimensional S2 geometry with two degrees of freedom, connecting to holography.
