Why in two dimension space many QTFtheory become renormalizable?

In summary, renormalizability is a crucial concept in QFT theories, particularly in two-dimensional space. It allows for the removal of infinities in calculations, making the theories more predictive and easier to understand. However, not all QFT theories are renormalizable in two dimensions, and achieving renormalizability becomes more difficult in higher dimensions due to increased complexity.

Why in two dimension space many QTF theories become renormalizable.By the way,are there any relation between this and the world-sheet in string theory?
Thank you very much in advance

Because loops now go as [itex]\int d^2 p[/itex] while propagators still go as [itex]p^2[/itex]
 

Related to Why in two dimension space many QTFtheory become renormalizable?

1. Why is renormalizability important in two-dimensional space for QFT theories?

Renormalizability is important in two-dimensional space for QFT theories because it allows for the elimination of infinities that arise in calculations. This makes the theories more predictive and allows for better understanding of the underlying physical phenomena.

2. What is the significance of renormalization in QFT theories?

Renormalization is a mathematical technique used to remove infinities that arise in QFT theories. By removing these infinities, the theories become well-defined and can make accurate predictions about physical processes.

3. How does the dimensionality of space affect the renormalizability of QFT theories?

The dimensionality of space is a crucial factor in the renormalizability of QFT theories. In two-dimensional space, many theories become renormalizable due to the simpler mathematical structure, while in higher dimensions, the complexity of the calculations increases and renormalizability becomes more difficult to achieve.

4. Are all QFT theories renormalizable in two-dimensional space?

No, not all QFT theories are renormalizable in two-dimensional space. While the simpler mathematical structure of two-dimensional space makes many theories renormalizable, there are still some theories that are not renormalizable even in two dimensions.

5. Can renormalizability be achieved in higher dimensions for QFT theories?

Yes, renormalizability can be achieved in higher dimensions for QFT theories, but it becomes increasingly difficult as the dimensionality increases. More complex mathematical techniques and approximations are needed to eliminate the infinities that arise in these higher dimensions.
