Hopf algebras and Dyson–Schwinger equations

Abstract

In this paper I discuss Hopf algebras and Dyson–Schwinger equations. This paper starts with an introduction to Hopf algebras, followed by a review of the contribution and application of Hopf algebras to particle physics. The final part of the paper is devoted to the relation between Hopf algebras and Dyson–Schwinger equations.

Keywords
