Quantum field theory without divergences

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

It is shown that loop divergences emerging in the Green functions in quantum field theory originate from correspondence of the Green functions to {\em unmeasurable} (and hence unphysical) quantities. This is because no physical quantity can be measured in a point, but in a region, the size of which is constrained by the resolution of measuring equipment. The incorporation of the resolution into the definition of quantum fields ϕ(x)→ϕ(A)(x)ϕ(x)\toϕ^{(A)}(x) and appropriate change of Feynman rules results in finite values of the Green functions. The Euclidean ϕ4ϕ^4-field theory is taken as an example.
