∆′(Γ) = 0 ⇔ |Γ| = 1 (35) Holds after taking derivatives for projective integral kernels

◮ Situation is dual between renormalizable theory and gravity:

  • ne one-cocycle per loop number for the gauge boson

determines DSE in massless gauge theories

  • ne one-cocycle per n-point one-loop graphs determines DSE

in gravity loop-leg duality

X n+1 X n = X n X n−1 (36) core Hopf ideal = renormalization ideal

◮ same powercounting holds for field diffeomorphisms of free

theory same ideal I: Φ(I) = 0 (37) delivers the equivalence theorem
