1 Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations Michael Borinsky 1 Humboldt-University Berlin Departments of Physics and Mathematics Paths to, from and in renormalisation, Potsdam borinsky@physik.hu-berlin.de M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 1
2 We will analyze a class of power series Fβ α R[[x]] with α, β > 0, f (x) = f n x n Fβ α with coefficients which satisfy, n=0 lim n and f n = f n Cα n Γ(n + β) f n α n Γ(n + β) = C f n+1 x n Fβ α. n=0 M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 2
3 These are the power series which admit an asymptotic expansion of the form, ( f n = α n+β Γ(n + β) c 0 + c ) 1 n + c 2 n(n 1) +... f including power series with lim n n α n Γ(n+β) = 0 c k = 0 for all k 0. These power series appear in Graph and permutation counting problems in combinatorics. Perturbation expansions in physics. Subclass of gevrey-1-power series. M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 3
4 Consider a power series f (x) F α β : ( f n = α n+β Γ(n + β) c 0 + c ) 1 n + c 2 n(n 1) +... Idea: Interpret the coefficients c k of the asymptotic expansion as a new power series. Definition A maps a power series to its asymptotic expansion: A : F α β R[[x]] f (x) γ(x) = c k x k k=0 M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 4
5 Theorem 1 A is a derivation on F α β : (Af (x)g(x))(x) = f (x)(ag)(x) + (Af )(x)g(x) F α β Follows from the log-convexity of Γ. Proof sketch is a subring of R[[x]]. With h(x) = f (x)g(x),. R 1 R 1 h n = f n k g k + f k g n k k=0 k=0 } {{ } High order times low order + n R k=r f k g n k }{{} O(α n Γ(n+β R)) M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 5
6 Derivative Analyze, the ordinary derivative on power series, : Fβ α Fβ+2 α, f (x) f (x) = nf n x n 1 n=1 where the β + 2 comes from (n + 1)f n+1 Γ(n + β + 2). M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 6
7 We have the commutative diagram, Fβ α Fβ+2 α A R[[x]] A A R[[x]] with A = α 1 xβ + x 2 where A is a bijection, because ker ker A! M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 7
8 What happens for composition of power series F α β? Theorem 2 Bender [1975] If f (x) is a power series of a function analytic at the origin, i.e. f n C n, then, for g Fβ α with g(0) = 0: f g F α β (Af g)(x) = f (g(x))(ag)(x) Bender considered much more general power series, but this is a direct corollary of his theorem in M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 8
9 What happens if f / ker A? A fulfills a general chain rule : Theorem 3 MB [2016] If f, g Fβ α with g(0) = 0 and g (0) = 1: f g Fβ α ( ) x β (Af g)(x) = f (g(x))(ag)(x) + e g(x) x αxg(x) (Af )(g(x)) g(x) We can solve for asymptotics of implicitly defined power series! M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 9
10 Theorem 3 MB [2016] If f, g F α β with g(0) = 0 and g (0) = 1: f g Fβ α ( ) x β (Af g)(x) = f (g(x))(ag)(x) + e g(x) x αxg(x) (Af )(g(x)) g(x) g (0) = 1 not a real restriction. Scaling maps spaces Fβ α F β α trivially. generates funny exponentials : Typical prefactors of the form e g(x) x αxg(x) e g 2 α in asymptotic expansions. M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 10
11 Differential equations with F (x, y) analytic at (0, 0). Apply A: f (x) = F (f (x), x) A f (x) = F f Use A with A A = A : A (Af )(x) = F f (f (x), x)(af )(x) Linear differential equation for (Af )(x). (f (x), x)(af )(x) M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 11
12 Applications Action on Dyson-Schwinger-Equations Let p, g, f F α β and p ker A, then the functional equation, implies and p(g(x)) = x + f (g(x)) ( x (Ag)(x) = g (x) g(x) (Af )(x) = g 1 (x) ) β e g(x) x αxg(x) (Af )(g(x)) ( x g 1 (x) ) β e g 1 (x) x αxg 1 (x) (Ag)(g 1 (x)). where g(g 1 (x)) = x. Solving the DSE perturbativly to n terms gives an asymptotic expansion up to order n 2! A maps low order expansions to high order expansions. Asymptotic expansion independent of p. M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 12
13 Example: Simple permutations Let π Sn simple S n such that π([i, j]) [k, l] for all i, j, k, l [0, n] with 2 [i, j] n 1, then π is a simple permutation, which does not map an interval to another interval. With S(x) = n=0 Albert et al. [2003] simple Sn x n and F (x) = n=1 n!x n : F (x) F (x) F (x) = x + S(F (x)) F (x) F1 1 and (AF ) = 1 even though S(x) is only given implicitly, we have an asymptotic expansion! M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 13
14 Generating function for asymptotic coefficients of S(x): ( x (AS)(x) = F 1 (x) s n = e 2 n! ) β e F 1 (x) x αxf 1 (x) F 1 (x) ( 1 4 n + 2 n(n 1) 40 3n(n 1)(n 2) +... Generating function for asymptotic coefficients can analyse asymptotics of asymptotics. ) M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 14
15 Conclusions Fβ α forms a subring of R[[x]] closed under composition, differentiation* and integration. A is a derivation on Fβ α which can be used to obtain asymptotic expansions of implicitly defined power series. Nice closure properties under asymptotic derivative A. Generalizations possible to multiple α 1,..., α l C with α i = α. Suitable for resummation of perturbation series applications in QFT and QM! There are probably many connections to resurgence! M. Borinsky (HU Berlin) Asymptotic expansions and Dyson-Schwinger equations 15
