Abstract

In this work several techniques to treat the partition function of the real scalar quartic quantum field theory on the Moyal plane is discussed. A factorisation approach requires the polytope volume for the diagonal subpolytope of symmetric stochastic matrices. This is determined asymptotically. The applicability of this method is tested for regime of weak coupling. Here the asymptotic character of the polytope volume alters the matrix structure of the original model leading to fictitious divergences.
