Abstract: We show how to use the Hopf algebra structure of quantum field theory to derive nonperturbative results for the short-distance singular sector of a renormalizable quantum field theory in a simple but generic example. We discuss renormalized Green functions $G_R(alpha,L)$ in such circumstances which depend on a single scale $L=ln{q}^2/m{u}^2$ and start from an expansion in the scale $G_R(alpha,L)=1+su{m}_{k}gamm{a}_k(alpha)L^k$. We derive recursion relations between the $gamm{a}_k$ which make full use of the renormalization group. We then show how to determine the Green function by the use of a Mellin transform on suitable integral kernels. We exhibit our approach in an example for which we find a functional equation relating weak and strong coupling expansions.
