Identification of perturbative ambiguity canceled against bion

It was conjectured that bions, semi-classical objects found in a compactified spacetime, are responsible for the cancellation of the so-called renormalon ambiguities. Contrary to the conjecture, we argue that the ambiguity due to the bion corresponds to the proliferation of Feynman diagrams. We poin...
