renormalization theory
Renormalization theory is a mathematical framework used in physics to remove the infinities that arise in certain calculations of quantum field theories. It allows for consistent and meaningful calculations by adjusting the values of parameters in the theory to account for the effects of high-energy interactions and ensure that observable quantities are finite.
