Abstract
A compact convergent integral representation for dimensionally renormalized Feynman amplitudes is explicitly constructed. The subtracted integrand is expressed as a distribution in the Schwinger α-parametric space, and is obtained by applying upon the bare integrand a new subtraction operatorR' which respects Zimmermann's forest structure.
