Description

The complete field expansion of Feynman amplitudes is established at any dimension d. The so called infrared finite parts develop poles at rational d. We prove a conjecture by Parisi by constructing an infrared subtraction procedure which defines finite amplitudes in such dimensions. The corrsponding counterterms are associated to nonlocal operators and are generated in a nonperturbative way for super-renormalizable theories. We determine at all orders the perturbative expansion which contains powers and logarithms of the coupling constant
