let be m a measures (by expermients) physical quantity and m0 a 'bare' value of these physical quantity , let us suppose that we can expand

m= m_{0}+f(k,m_{0})+ \sum_{n} u^{n}c_{n}

for some finite quantities c_n and u=log(\Lambda) with lambda a regulator

can we then invert the series above to express

log(\Lambda)= g( f(k,m_{0}) , m , m_{0})

how about if instead of logarithms of regulator there are also powers of regulator i mean quantities proportional to \Lambda ^{k}

One can formally solve every equation \sum_{n=1}^\infty c_nu^n=x
with nonzero c_1 to an equation \sum_{n=1}^\infty d_nx^n=u; simply substitute one into the other and compare coefficients to get recurrence relations.
 
Insights auto threads is broken atm, so I'm manually creating these for new Insight articles. Towards the end of the first lecture for the Qiskit Global Summer School 2025, Foundations of Quantum Mechanics, Olivia Lanes (Global Lead, Content and Education IBM) stated...

If we release an electron around a positively charged sphere, the initial state of electron is a linear combination of Hydrogen-like states. According to quantum mechanics, evolution of time would not change this initial state because the potential is time independent. However, classically we expect the electron to collide with the sphere. So, it seems that the quantum and classics predict different behaviours!
