Smoothed asymptotics: from number theory to QFT (2024)
Journal Article
Padilla, A., & Smith, R. G. C. (2024). Smoothed asymptotics: from number theory to QFT. Physical Review D, 110(2), Article 025010. https://doi.org/10.1103/PhysRevD.110.025010

Inspired by the method of smoothed asymptotics developed by Terence Tao, we introduce a new ultraviolet regularisation scheme for loop integrals in quantum field theory which we call η regularisation. This reveals a connection between the elimination... Read More about Smoothed asymptotics: from number theory to QFT.
