Abstract: A Wilsonian renormalization group approach is applied, in order to include effects of the higher Landau levels for quarks into a set of renormalized parameters for the lowest Landau level (LLL), plus a set of operators made of the LLL fields. Most of the calculations can be done in a model-independent way with perturbation theory for hard gluons, thanks to form factors of quark-gluon vertices that arise from the Ritus bases for quark fields. As a part of such renormalization program, we compute the renormalized quark self-energy at 1-loop, including effects from all higher orbital levels. The result indicates that the higher orbital levels cease to strongly affect the LLL at a rather small magnetic field of (0.1 - 0.3) GeV^2.
