How (not) to renormalize integral equations with singular potentials in effective field theory

Abstract: We briefly review general concepts of renormalization in quantum field theory and discuss their application to solutions of integral equations with singular potentials in the few-nucleon sector of the low-energy effective field theory of QCD. We also describe a particular subtractive renormalization scheme and consider a specific application to a toy-model with a singular potential serving as its effective field theoretical leading-order approximation.

“…The appearance of a finite cutoff that needs to be kept of the order of the breakdown scale [24,25,26,27,28] is an unavoidable feature of the employed non-relativistic approach with the scattering amplitude being generated non-perturbatively by solving the Schrödinger or Lippmann-Schwinger equations for a potential truncated at a finite chiral order, see Ref. [29] for a discussion of some common misconceptions in connection with non-perturbative renormalization of chiral EFT for the two-nucleon system. To the best of my knowledge, the only available approach which allows one to eliminate the UV cutoff in calculations based on the non-perturbative treatment of the one-pion exchange potential in the way compatible with the principles of EFT is the one proposed in Ref.…”

“…The standard way to cure this problem in practical calculations is to employ a finite UV cutoff of the order of a natural hard scale in the problem, so that the unwanted higher-order contributions turn out to be suppressed [43]; see also a recent discussion in Ref. [44]. For an alternative approach with relativized integral equations of the Kadyshevsky type in the context of a nucleon-nucleon (NN) and heavy-meson EFTs see Refs.…”
