This masters thesis reviews the algebraic formulation of renormalization using Hopf algebras as pioneered by Dirk Kreimer and applies it to a toy model of quantum field theory given through iterated insertions of a single primitive divergence into itself. Using this example in a subtraction scheme, we exhibit the renormalized Feynman rules to yield Hopf algebra morphisms into the Hopf algebra of polynomials and as a consequence study the emergence of the renormalization group in connection with combinatorial Dyson-Schwinger equations. In particular we relate the perturbative expansion of the anomalous dimension to the coefficients of the Mellin transform of the integral kernel specifying the primitve divergence. A theorem on the Hopf algebra of rooted trees relates different Mellin transforms by automorphisms of this Hopf algebra.
