Applications of non-perturbative renormalization
Abstract
Description
A short survey of the renormalization problem in QCD and its non-perturbative solution by means of numerical simulations on the lattice is given. Most emphasis is on scale dependent renormalizations, which can be reliably addressed via a recursive finite-size scaling procedure employing a suitable intermediate renormalization scheme. To illustrate these concepts we discuss some - partly recent - computations of phenomenologically relevant quantities: the running QCD gauge coupling, renormalization group invariant quark masses and the renormalization of the static-light axial current.
