论文摘要
高能量物理具有许多巧妙的工具,用于提取正式表达式的有限结果。从新的角度来看,这篇简短的说明表明,所有这些形式上的无限态度都是新物理学的有意义的标记。因此,应该详细探讨它们 - 即使是最简单的量子场理论,它们的理论超出了通常的想法。
High energy physics features many ingenious tools for extracting finite results from formally divergent expressions. This brief note argues from a new perspective that all such formal infinities are meaningful markers of new physics. As such, they deserve to be explored in detail -- and even the simplest quantum field theories have more of them than is commonly thought.
