Title: On the Dimensional Regularisation Method in
Quantum Field Theory and the Bernstein Polynomial

Abstract:
The method of dimensional renormalisation is widely used in Quantum Field Theory , especially because it is consistent with gauge invariance . In an effort to dispel the magics of a space-time with a nonintegral dimension , we propose a new viewpoiint , valid for both bosonic AND fermionic fields . We use a functional transformation , introduced around 1960 by Schwinger and then developed by Symanzik . The "bare" scattering amplitude is expressed as an integral over the Schwinger $alpha$ parameters , diverging when these parameters , of the nature of a squared-length , approach 0 . We remark that the space-time dimension D appears explicitly in one place only , as the exponent of a rational function in a certain integral . The analytic continuation with respect to D can be achieved by the method of Gelfand-Bernstein . The so-called b-polynomial , and the geometry of the singular locus control the substraction procedure necessary to regularize the divergent amplitudes . The method is perfectly general , but has to be carried explicitly in any model .
