Abstract

A new construction of non-Gaussian, rotation-invariant and reflection positive probability measures μ\mu associated with the φ34\varphi ^4_3-model of quantum field theory is presented. Our construction uses a combination of semigroup methods, and methods of stochastic partial differential equations (SPDEs) for finding solutions and stationary measures of the natural stochastic quantization associated with the φ34\varphi ^4_3-model. Our starting point is a suitable approximation μM,N\mu_{M,N} of the measure μ\mu we intend to construct. μM,N\mu_{M,N} is parametrized by an MM-dependent space cut-off function ρM:R3R\rho_M: {\mathbb R}^3\rightarrow {\mathbb R} and an NN-dependent momentum cut-off function ψN:R^3R3R\psi_N: \widehat{\mathbb R}^3 \cong {\mathbb R}^3 \rightarrow {\mathbb R}, that act on the interaction term (nonlinear term and counterterms). The corresponding family of stochastic quantization equations yields solutions (XtM,N,t0)(X_t^{M,N}, t\geq 0) that have μM,N\mu_{M,N} as an invariant probability measure. By a combination of probabilistic and functional analytic methods for singular stochastic differential equations on negative-indices weighted Besov spaces (with rotation invariant weights) we prove the tightness of the family of continuous processes (XtM,N,t0)M,N(X_t^{M,N},t \geq 0)_{M,N}. Limit points in the sense of convergence in law exist, when both MM and NN diverge to ++\infty. The limit processes (Xt;t0)(X_t; t\geq 0) are continuous on the intersection of suitable Besov spaces and any limit point μ\mu of the μM,N\mu_{M,N} is a stationary measure of XX. μ\mu is shown to be a rotation-invariant and non-Gaussian probability measure and we provide results on its support. It is also proven that μ\mu satisfies a further important property belonging to the family of axioms for Euclidean quantum fields, it is namely reflection positive.
