In the Kreimer-Connes Hopf algebraic approach to renormalization, for certain QFTs the Dyson-Schwinger equations can be reduced to nonlinear differential equations. I describe methods based on Ecalle's theory of resurgent trans-series to extract non-perturbative information from these Dyson-Schwinger equations. Even in the absence of exact results, there exist efficient methods to uncover non-perturbative information numerically from perturbative data.
