Two-loop inverse-coupling logarithmic remainder
ID: two-loop-inverse-coupling-logarithmic-remainder
For the asymptotically free two-loop running coupling , with , let , , and . A choice of the scale gives the exact implicit equation on the ultraviolet branch. Its expansion isThe remainder after the first two terms is therefore , and is not when . A fixed rescaling of cannot change the coefficient of . This distinction matters when quoting errors for asymptotic expansions.
