Towards finite field theory: the Taylor-Lagrange regularization scheme

Abstract

We recall a natural framework to deal with local field theory in which bare amplitudes are completely finite. We first present the main general properties of this scheme, the so-called Taylor-Lagrange regularization scheme. We then investigate the consequences of this scheme on the calculation of perturbative radiative corrections to the Higgs mass within the Standard Model. Important consequences for the renormalization group equations are finally discussed.
