Finite Z-less integral expressions for $β$-functions in the MS4 scheme

The generalized minimal subtraction scheme for ultraviolet renormalization (Kuznetsov and Tkachov, 1988) is fine-tuned with applications in mind. The resulting $\text{MS}^4$ scheme obviates extraneous regularizations and renders momentum integrands integrable by subtracting troublesome asymptotic terms in a physically correct fashion due to the use of special minimal subtraction operators defined congruously with the physically natural Polchinski cutoffs. A direct derivation of the Callan-Symanzik equations avoids divergent renormalization factors or counterterms, and automatically yields explicit exact finite integral expressions for renormalization group functions.

Partial D-operators for the generalized IBP reduction

Empirical evidence reveals existence of partial D-operators for the generalized IBP (BT) reduction algorithms that are, counterintuitively, much simpler and much easier to find than the complete D-operators from the foundational Bernstein theorem, allowing one to construct first true two-loop examples of generalized IBP identities.

Breaking the 2-loop barrier for generalized IBP reduction

We discuss the problem of constructing differential operators for the generalized IBP reduction algorithms at the 2-loop level. A deeply optimized software allows one to efficiently construct such operators for the first non-degenerate 2-loop cases. The most efficient approach is found to be via the so-called partial operators that are much simpler than the complete ones, and that affect the power of only one of the polynomials in the product.

MS4: a BPHZ killer

The UV renormalization scheme $\text{MS}^4$ emerged in the formalization of the reasoning which yielded an array of important algorithms in the 80's. $\text{MS}^4$ guarantees finiteness of renormalized integrals by construction, satisfies the Stueckelberg-Bogolyubov causality axiom for the R-operation, and turns out to be a 4-dimensional analog of t'Hooft's MS-scheme. The well-known IBP reduction algorithm can be ported to $\text{MS}^4$ with modifications, but without problems. $\text{MS}^4$ exhibits transparency of the structure, simplicity of the arithmetic at $D=4$, and new calculational options. A straightforward derivation of RG equations runs in terms of explicitly finite quantities and expresses RG functions in terms of explicitly finite integrals.
