We study the problem of renormalization for the interaction of a charged scalar meson field with a fixed two-level point source. Our especial interest is coupling-constant renormalization. We study in particular the problem of obtaining eigenstates and eigenvalues of the Hamiltonian for the fixed-source theory. We propose a model for the fixed-source theory, in which mesons exist only if their momenta ($k$) lie within an infinite set of intervals: $0lkl{k}_{0}$, $\frac{1}{2}\ensuremath{\Lambda}lkl\ensuremath{\Lambda}$, $\frac{1}{2}{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}^{2}lkl{\ensuremath{\Lambda}}^{2}$, etc., where ${k}_{0}$ is of the order of the meson mass, and $\ensuremath{\Lambda}$ is much larger. We solve this model by treating the mesons in the nth interval (or lower) as a perturbation on mesons in the (n+1)st interval (and higher). This reduces the problem to the solution of two strongly cut-off Hamiltonians, one of which must be solved for an infinite sequence of coupling constants ${{g}_{n}}$, one for each momentum interval. We show that even if the low-momentum coupling constants ${g}_{1}$, ${g}_{2}$, etc., are small, the sequence goes to infinity as $n\ensuremath{\rightarrow}\ensuremath{\infty}$. We analyze the Lee model similarly; here the sequence is undefined above some finite value of $n$. We show a close analogy between our analysis and the analysis of quantum electrodynamics of Gell-Mann and Low. Then we analyze the full fixed-source Hamiltonian qualitatively. We expland the meson field in terms of a complete set of "wave-packet" states, the coefficients being discrete oscillator variables. The states are so chosen that the self-interactions of oscillators dominate the coupling between oscillators. For each order of magnitude for the meson momentum, there is one pair of oscillators coupled to the source; this coupling can be analyzed analogously to our model. The full fixed-source Hamiltonian is thereby reduced to the solution of a Hamiltonian for two oscillators coupled to a two-level source.
