We illustrate the dimensional regularization technique using a simple problem from elementary electrostatics. We contrast this approach with the cutoff regularization approach, and demonstrate that dimensional regularization preserves the translational symmetry. We then introduce a Minimal Subtraction (MS) and a Modified Minimal Subtraction (MS-Bar) scheme to renormalize the result. Finally, we consider dimensional transmutation as encountered in the case of compact extra-dimensions.

We consider the most general loop integral that appears in non-relativistic effective field theories with no light particles. The divergences of this integral are in correspondence with simple poles in the space of complex space-time dimensions. Inte
grals related to the original integral by subtraction of one or more poles in dimensions other than D=4 lead to nonminimal subtraction schemes. Subtraction of all poles in correspondence with ultraviolet divergences of the loop integral leads naturally to a regularization scheme which is precisely equivalent to cutoff regularization. We therefore recover cutoff regularization from dimensional regularization with a nonminimal subtraction scheme. We then discuss the power-counting for non-relativistic effective field theories which arises in these alternative schemes.
We discuss the difference between n-dimensional regularization and n-dimensional reduction for processes in QCD which have an additional mass scale. Examples are heavy flavour production in hadron-hadron collisions or on-shell photon-hadron collision
s where the scale is represented by the mass $m$. Another example is electroproduction of heavy flavours where we have two mass scales given by $m$ and the virtuality of the photon $Q=sqrt{-q^2}$. Finally we study the Drell-Yan process where the additional scale is represented by the virtuality $Q=sqrt{q^2}$ of the vector boson ($gamma^*, W, Z$). The difference between the two schemes is not accounted for by the usual oversubtractions. There are extra counter terms which multiply the mass scale dependent parts of the Born cross sections. In the case of the Drell-Yan process it turns out that the off-shell mass regularization agrees with n-dimensional regularization.
We study how the dimensional regularization works in the light-cone gauge string field theory. We show that it is not necessary to add a contact term to the string field theory action as a counter term in this regularization at least at the tree leve
l. We also investigate the one-loop amplitudes of the bosonic theory in noncritical dimensions and show that they are modular invariant.
We review our recent proposals to dimensionally regularize the light-cone gauge string field theory.
We compute the free energy in the presence of a chemical potential coupled to a conserved charge in effective O($n$) scalar field theory (without explicit symmetry breaking terms) to NNL order for asymmetric volumes in general $d$--dimensions, using
dimensional (DR) and lattice regularizations. This yields relations between the 4-derivative couplings appearing in the effective actions for the two regularizations, which in turn allows us to translate results, e.g. the mass gap in a finite periodic box in $d=3+1$ dimensions, from one regularization to the other. Consistency is found with a new direct computation of the mass gap using DR. For the case $n=4, d=4$ the model is the low-energy effective theory of QCD with $N_{rm f}=2$ massless quarks. The results can thus be used to obtain estimates of low energy constants in the effective chiral Lagrangian from measurements of the low energy observables, including the low lying spectrum of $N_{rm f}=2$ QCD in the $delta$--regime using lattice simulations, as proposed by Peter Hasenfratz, or from the susceptibility corresponding to the chemical potential used.
