QED Hopf algebras on planar binary trees

چکیده
In this paper we describe the Hopf algebras on planar binary trees used to renormalize the Feynman propagators of quantum electrodynamics, and the coaction which describes the renormalization procedure. Both structures are related to some semi-direct coproduct of Hopf algebras.

Cocommutative Hopf Algebras of Permutations and Trees
Consider the coradical filtration of the Hopf algebras of planar binary trees of Loday and Ronco and of permutations of Malvenuto and Reutenauer. We show that the associated graded Hopf algebras are dual to the cocommutative Hopf algebras introduced in the late 1980’s by Grossman and Larson. These Hopf algebras are constructed from ordered trees and heap-ordered trees, respectively. We also sho...
متن کاملCommutative combinatorial Hopf algebras
We propose several constructions of commutative or cocommutative Hopf algebras based on various combinatorial structures and investigate the relations between them. A commutative Hopf algebra of permutations is obtained by a general construction based on graphs, and its noncommutative dual is realized in three different ways, in particular, as the Grossman–Larson algebra of heap-ordered trees. ...
متن کاملNoncommutative renormalization for massless QED
We study the renormalization of massless QED from the point of view of the Hopf algebra discovered by D. Kreimer. For QED, we describe a Hopf algebra of renormalization which is neither commutative nor cocommutative. We obtain explicit renormalization formulas for the electron and photon propagators, for the vacuum polarization and the electron self-energy, which are equivalent to Zimmermann’s ...

متن کاملColoured peak algebras and Hopf algebras
For G a finite abelian group, we study the properties of general equivalence relations on Gn = Gn Sn , the wreath product of G with the symmetric group Sn , also known as the G-coloured symmetric group. We show that under certain conditions, some equivalence relations give rise to subalgebras of kGn as well as graded connected Hopf subalgebras of ⊕ n≥o kGn . In particular we construct a G-colou...
