Within the framework of the covariant formulation of light-front dynamics, we develop a general non-perturbative renormalization scheme based on the Fock decomposition of the state vector and its truncation. The counterterms and bare parameters needed to renormalize the theory depend on the Fock sectors. We present a general strategy in order to calculate these quantities, as well as state vectors of physical systems, in a truncated Fock space. The explicit dependence of our formalism on the orientation of the light front plane is essential in order to analyze the structure of the counterterms. We apply our formalism to the two-body (one fermion and one boson) truncation in the Yukawa model and in QED, and to the three-body truncation in a scalar model. In QED, we recover analytically, without any perturbative expansion, the renormalization of the electric charge, according to the requirements of the Ward identity.

We present a general framework to calculate the properties of relativistic compound systems from the knowledge of an elementary Hamiltonian. Our framework provides a well-controlled nonperturbative calculational scheme which can be systematically imp roved. The state vector of a physical system is calculated in light-front dynamics. From the general properties of this form of dynamics, the state vector can be further decomposed in well-defined Fock components. In order to control the convergence of this expansion, we advocate the use of the covariant formulation of light-front dynamics. In this formulation, the state vector is projected on an arbitrary light-front plane $omega cd x=0$ defined by a light-like four-vector $omega$. This enables us to control any violation of rotational invariance due to the truncation of the Fock expansion. We then present a general nonperturbative renormalization scheme in order to avoid field-theoretical divergences which may remain uncancelled due to this truncation. This general framework has been applied to a large variety of models. As a starting point, we consider QED for the two-body Fock space truncation and calculate the anomalous magnetic moment of the electron. We show that it coincides, in this approximation, with the well-known Schwinger term. Then we investigate the properties of a purely scalar system in the three-body approximation, where we highlight the role of antiparticle degrees of freedom. As a non-trivial example of our framework, we calculate the structure of a physical fermion in the Yukawa model, for the three-body Fock space truncation (but still without antifermion contributions). We finally show why our approach is also well-suited to describe effective field theories like chiral perturbation theory in the baryonic sector.

Modified similarity renormalization of Hamiltonians is proposed, that performes by means of flow equations the similarity transformation of Hamiltonian in the particle number space. This enables to renormalize in the energy space the field theoretica l Hamiltonian and makes possible to work in a severe trancated Fock space for the renormalized Hamiltonian.

We present a systematic theory of Coulomb-induced correlation effects in the nonlinear optical processes within the strong-coupling regime. In this paper we shall set a dynamics controlled truncation scheme cite{Axt Stahl} microscopic treatment of no nlinear parametric processes in SMCs including the electromagnetic field quantization. It represents the starting point for the microscopic approach to quantum optics experiments in the strong coupling regime without any assumption on the quantum statistics of electronic excitations (excitons) involved. We exploit a previous technique, used in the semiclassical context, which, once applied to four-wave mixing in quantum wells, allowed to understand a wide range of observed phenomena cite{Sham PRL95}. We end up with dynamical equations for exciton and photon operators which extend the usual semiclassical description of Coulomb interaction effects, in terms of a mean-field term plus a genuine non-instantaneous four-particle correlation, to quantum optical effects.

The infinitesimal unitary transformation, introduced recently by F.Wegner, to bring the Hamiltonian to diagonal (or band diagonal) form, is applied to the Hamiltonian theory as an exact renormalization scheme. We consider QED on the light front to il lustrate the method. The low-energy generated interaction, induced in the renormalized Hamiltonian to the order alpha, is shown to be negative to insure together with instantaneous term and perturbative photon exchange the bound states for positronium. It is possible to perform the complete complete elimination of the eegamma-vertex in the instant form frame; this gives rise to the cutoff independent ebar{e}-interaction governed by generated and instantaneous terms. The well known result for the singlet-triplet splitting $7/6 alpha^2 Ryd$ is recovered in the nonrelativistic limit as long as $la << m$. We examine the mass and wave function renormalization. The ultraviolet divergencies, associated with a large transverse momentum, are regularized by the regulator arising from the unitary transformation. The severe infrared divergencies are removed if all diagrams to the second order, arising from flow equations method and normal-ordering Hamiltonian, are taken into account. The electron (photon) mass in the renormalized Hamiltonian vary with UV cutoff in accordance with 1-loop renormalization group equations.This indicates to an intimete connection between Wilsons renormalization and the flow equation method. The advantages of the method in comparison with the naive renormalisation group approach are discussed.
We present a systematic implementation of differential renormalization to all orders in perturbation theory. The method is applied to individual Feynamn graphs written in coordinate space. After isolating every singularity. which appears in a bare di agram, we define a subtraction procedure which consists in replacing the core of the singularity by its renormalized form givenby a differential formula. The organizationof subtractions in subgraphs relies in Bogoliubovs formula, fulfilling the requirements of locality, unitarity and Lorentz invariance. Our method bypasses the use of an intermediate regularization andautomatically delivers renormalized amplitudes which obey renormalization group equations.
