Abstract
The renormalization algorithm based on regularization methods with two regulators is analyzed by means of explicit computations. We show in particular that regularization by higher covariant derivative terms ca n be complemented with dimensional regularization to obtain a consiste nt renormalized 4-dimensional Yang-Mills theory at the one-loop level. This shows that hybrid regularization methods can be applied not only to finite theories, like e.g. Chem-Simons, but also to divergent theo ries.
