Abstract

By means of the Ward identity and the correlation expansion derived earlier, we calculate virtual radiative corrections to an infinite order. Partial factorization of the correlation effects, as in the simple exchange processes, makes infinite summation possible. Furthermore, because the Ward identity is satisfied order by order and because we are able to carry out the infinite order summation and obtain a closed form, renormalization turns out to be very simple and transparent. Here the calculations are performed for a scalar: ϕ 2: φ model, but are easily generalized to other similar models. We also indicate why this rearrangement of the ordinary perturbation expansion is suitable for strong coupling theories, ordinary local field theories as well as dual models.
