We present new results on the Gross-Neveu model at finite temperature and at next-to-leading order in the 1/N expansion. In particular, a new expression is obtained for the effective potential which is explicitly invariant under…
This paper presents an extended version of the article [Franz, S., Kopteva, N.: J. Differential Equations, 252 (2012)]. The main improvement compared to the latter is in that here we additionally estimate the mixed second-order derivative…
In theories with renormalons the perturbative series is factorially divergent even after restricting to a given order in $1/N$, making the $1/N$ expansion a natural testing ground for the theory of resurgence. We study in detail the…
The previously developed renormalizable perturbative 1/N-expansion in higher dimensional scalar field theories is extended to gauge theories with fermions. It is based on the $1/N_f$-expansion and results in a logarithmically divergent…
We address the reliability of the Optimized Perturbation Theory (OPT) in the context of the 0-dimensional $O(N)$ scalar field model. The effective potential, the self-energy and the 1PI four-point Green's function for the model are computed…
We study a class of four-fermion Gross-Neveu like models in four dimensions with critical exponents $z=2$ and $z=3$. The models with $z=2$ are known to be perturbatively nonrenormalizable but are shown to be renormalizable in the context of…
The non-commutative O(N) Gross-Neveu model is solved in the large N limit in two and three space-time dimensions. The commutative version of the two dimensional model is a renormalizable quantum field theory, both in a coupling constant…
We introduce an extension of a variationally optimized perturbation method, by combining it with renormalization group properties in a straightforward (perturbative) form. This leads to a very transparent and efficient procedure, with a…

We show how to perform systematically improvable variational calculations in the $O(2N)$ Gross-Neveu model for generic $N$, in such a way that all infinities usually plaguing such calculations are accounted for in a way compatible with the…
We present a quasi-analytic perturbation expansion for multivariate N-dimensional Gaussian integrals. The perturbation expansion is an infinite series of lower-dimensional integrals (one-dimensional in the simplest approximation). This…
