Fractional Derivative Regularization in QFT

We propose in this paper a new regularization, where integer-order differential operators are replaced by fractional-order operators. Regularization for quantum field theories based on application of the Riesz fractional derivatives of noninteger orders is suggested. The regularized loop integrals d...
