Dimensional regularization is applied to the Lippmann-Schwinger equation for a separable potential which gives rise to logarithmic singularities in the Born series. For this potential a subtraction at a fixed energy can be used to renormalize the amplitude and produce a finite solution to the integral equation for all energies. This can be done either algebraically or numerically. In the latter case dimensional regularization can be implemented by solving the integral equation in a lower number of dimensions, fixing the potential strength, and computing the phase shifts, while taking the limit as the number of dimensions approaches three. We demonstrate that these steps can be carried out in a numerically stable way, and show that the results thereby obtained agree with those found when the renormalization is performed algebraically to four significant figures.
