Leading-pole consistency under coupling reparametrization

ID: leading-pole-consistency-under-coupling-reparametrization

With , the chain rule gives . Inverting the displayed coupling expansion yields . Substitution gives , so finiteness requires the displayed double-pole condition. An omitted simple-pole term supplies a finite term; higher-pole consistency does not by itself determine the finite two-loop beta function.
