This article aims to explain essential elements of perturbation theory and their conceptual underpinnings. It is not meant as a summary of popular perturbation methods, though some illustrative examples are given to underline the main…
A review of chiral perturbation theory and that of recent developments on the comparison of its predictions with experiment is presented. Some interesting topics with scope for further elaboration are touched upon.
This text is a slightly edited version of lecture notes for a course I gave at ETH, during the Summer term 2001, to undergraduate Mathematics and Physics students. It covers a few selected topics from perturbation theory at an introductory…
This is one of the two papers where the optimized perturbation theory was first formulated. The other paper is published in Theor. Math. Phys. 28, 652--660 (1976). The main idea of the theory is to reorganize the perturbative sequence by…
The perturbative theory of the nucleation kinetics is analyzed. A new improvement is suggested and compared with numerical calculations.

The physical aspect of a general perturbation theory is explored. Its role as a physical principle for understanding the interaction among the matters with different levels of hierarchy is appreciated. It is shown that the general…
The first well founded perturbation theory for classical solid systems is presented. Theoretical approaches to thermodynamic and structural properties of the hard-sphere solid provide us with the reference system. The traditional…
Perturbation theory can be reformulated as dynamical theory. Then a sequence of perturbative approximations is bijective to a trajectory of dynamical system with discrete time, called the approximation cascade. Here we concentrate our…
The relation between "non-perturbative analysis" of low temperature dephasing and the perturbation theory is discussed. Contributions missed in each order of the perturbation theory due to "non-perturbative analysis" are listed. Main source…

Different perturbation theory treatments of the Ginzburg-Landau phase transition model are discussed. This includes a criticism of the perturbative renormalization group (RG) approach and a proposal of a novel method providing critical…
We analyze the optical resonances of a dielectric sphere whose surface has been slightly deformed in an arbitrary way. Setting up a perturbation series up to second order, we derive both the frequency shifts and modified linewidths. Our…
The basic ideas and methods of chiral perturbation theory are briefly reviewed. I discuss the recent attempts to build an effective Lagrangian in the resonance region and summarize the known large-N_C constraints on the low-energy chiral…
