In this article we provide a multitrace analysis of the theory of noncommutative $\Phi^4$ in two dimensions on the fuzzy sphere ${\bf S}^2_{N,\Omega}$, and on the Moyal-Weyl plane ${\bf R}^{2}_{\theta, \Omega}$, with a non-zero harmonic…
Field theories on deformed spaces suffer from the IR/UV mixing and renormalization is generically spoiled. In work with R. Wulkenhaar, one of us realized a way to cure this disease by adding one more marginal operator. We review these…
The implications of restricted conformal invariance under conformal transformations preserving a plane boundary are discussed for general dimensions $d$. Calculations of the universal function of a conformal invariant $\xi$ which appears in…
We show that the noncommutative Wess-Zumino model is renormalizable to all orders of perturbation theory. The noncommutative scalar potential by itself is non-renormalizable but the Yukawa terms demanded by supersymmetry improve the…
We study the one component $\Phi^4$ model for four different lattice actions in the Gaussian limit and for the Ising model in the broken phase. Emphasis is put on the euclidean invariance properties of the boson propagator. A measure of the…
I review dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in four-fermi models, including results of Monte Carlo simulations with dynamical fermions. For 2<d<4, where the phase transition defines an ultraviolet fixed point of the renormalisation group,…
In this thesis noncommutative gauge theory is extended beyond the canonical case, i.e. to structures where the commutator no longer is a constant. In the first part noncommutative spaces created by star-products are studied. We are able to…
The non-perturbative autonomous renormalization of the scalar $\Phi^4$-model is applied in the framework of stochastic quantization. I show that this requires a selective, momentum-dependent renormalization of the Onsager coefficient…
We consider the one-loop renormalization of dimension four composite operators and the energy-momentum tensor in noncommutative \phi^4 scalar field theory. Proper operator bases are constructed and it is proved that the bare composite…
We develop an algorithmic, system-specific renormalization group (RG) procedure that is adapted from model reductions techniques from engineering control theory. The resulting "generalized" RG is a consistent generalization of the Wilsonian…
We study a renormalized coupling g and mass m in four dimensional phi^4 theory on tori with finite size z=mL. Precise numerical values close to the continuum limit are reported for z=1,2,4, based on Monte Carlo simulations performed in the…
The Gaussian-time-dependent variational equations are used to explored the physics of $(\phi^4)_{3+1}$ field theory. We have investigated the static solutions and discussed the conditions of renormalization. Using these results and…
The formalism of generalized Wigner transformations developped in a previous paper, is applied to kinetic equations of the Lindblad type for quantum harmonic oscillator models. It is first applied to an oscillator coupled to an equilibrium…
The out-of-equilibrium dynamics of the O(N+1) nonlinear sigma model in 1+1 dimensions is investigated in the large N limit. Regarding the nonlinearity as the effect of a suitable large coupling limit of the O(N+1) \phi^4 model, we first of…
The noncommutative extension of two dimensional BF model is considered. It is shown that the realization of the noncommutative map via the Groenewold-Moyal star product leads to instabilities of the action, hence to a non renormalizable…
We provide a rigorous construction of generalized spin--boson models with commuting transition matrices and form factors exhibiting critical ultraviolet (UV) divergences. That is, we cover all divergences where a self-energy…
Noncommutative Euclidean spaces -- otherwise known as Moyal spaces or quantum Euclidean spaces -- are a standard example of a non-compact noncommutative geometry. Recent progress in the harmonic analysis of these spaces gives us the…
We prove that the scaling limits of spin fluctuations in four-dimensional Ising-type models with nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic interaction at or near the critical point are Gaussian. A similar statement is proven for the $\lambda \phi^4$…
We compute the renormalized trajectory of $\phi^4_4$-theory by perturbation theory in a running coupling. We use an exact infinitesimal renormalization group. The expansion is put into a form which is manifestly independent of the scale…
We calculate conformal anomalies in noncommutative gauge theories by using the path integral method (Fujikawa's method). Along with the axial anomalies and chiral gauge anomalies, conformal anomalies take the form of the straightforward…
