Why Are Renormalons Always In The Same Place ?

Abstract

In order that current and future renormalon results in QCD can be used to their full advantage it is important to understand how the Borel transforms of related functions are themselves related. For example, a change of renormalisation scheme can involve the inversion of a function; how is the transform of a function related to the transform of an inverse ? We outline a method of extracting the dominant behaviour of the Borel transform after the action of simple operations on the function.
