We develop a nonperturbative technique in field theory to study properties of infinite nuclear matter at zero temperature as well as at finite temperatures. Here we dress the nuclear matter with off-mass shell pions. The techniques of…
A study of the zero modes of the Faddeev-Popov operator in the maximal Abelian gauge is presented in the case of the gauge group SU(2) and for different Euclidean space-time dimensions. Explicit examples of classes of normalizable zero…
We apply a tensor network scheme to finite temperature Z$_2$ gauge theory in 2+1 dimensions. Finite size scaling analysis with the spatial extension up to $N_{\sigma}=4096$ at the temporal extension of $N_\tau=2,3,5$ allows us to determine…
We present non-perturbative correlation functions in Landau-gauge Yang-Mills theory at finite temperature. The results are obtained from the functional renormalisation group within a self-consistent approximation scheme. In particular, we…
Using the Slavnov--Taylor identities we prove that the three-point ghost vertices with a single line of the quantum gauge superfield are not renormalized in all loops in ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric gauge theories. This statement is verified…
We develop a new operator quantization scheme for gauge theories in which the dynamics of the ghost sector is described by an N=2 supersymmetry. In this scheme no gauge condition is imposed on the gauge fields. The corresponding path…
Recently, the zero-pairing limit of Hartree-Fock-Bogoliubov (HFB) mean-field theory was studied in detail in arXiv:2006.02871. It was shown that such a limit is always well-defined for any particle number A, but the resulting many-body…
In this course we give a selfcontained introduction to the quantum field theory for trapped atomic gases, using functional methods throughout. We consider both equilibrium and nonequilibrium phenomena. In the equilibrium case, we first…
The thermodynamic properties of dark energy fluids described by an equation of state parameter $\omega=p/\rho$ are rediscussed in the context of FRW type geometries. Contrarily to previous claims, it is argued here that the phantom regime…
The Bogoliubov transformation in thermofield dynamics, an operator formalism for the finite-temperature quantum-field theory, is generalized to describe a field in arbitrary confined regions of space and time. Starting with the scalar…
Chamseddine and Mukhanov have promoted the concept of mimetic dark matter as alternative dark matter candidate coming from gravitation. Unfortunately although being very interesting, their proposition turned out to have weakness among which…
We develop finite temperature theory for a trapped dipolar Bose gas including thermal exchange interactions. Previous treatments neglected these, difficult to compute, terms. We present a methodology for numerically evaluating the thermal…
We analyse 4-dimensional massive $\vp^4$ theory at finite temperature T in the imaginary-time formalism. We present a rigorous proof that this quantum field theory is renormalizable, to all orders of the loop expansion. Our main point is to…
A non-Abelian gauge theory describes the strong interactions among particles with the commutator of generators are non-zero. An $SU(3)$ gauge theory describes the interactions that lead to nuclear forces among particles. The Lagrangian…
By an explicit calculation we demonstrate that the triple gauge-ghost vertices in a general renormalizable ${\cal N}=1$ supersymmetric gauge theory are UV finite in the two-loop approximation. For this purpose we calculate the two-loop…
Classical fields approximation to cold weakly interacting bosons allows for a unified treatment of condensed and uncondensed parts of the system. Until now, however, the quantitative predictions were limited by a dependence of the results…
We discuss possible definitions of the Faddeev-Popov matrix for the minimal linear covariant gauge on the lattice and present preliminary results for the ghost propagator.
We use gauge/gravity duality to study the thermodynamics of a generic almost conformal theory, specified by its beta function. Three different phases are identified, a high temperature phase of massless partons, an intermediate…
We study a new spacetime which is shown to be the general geometrical background for Thermal Field Theories at equilibrium. The different formalisms of Thermal Field Theory are unified in a simple way in this spacetime. The set of…
We study gauge theories with/without an extra dimension at finite temperature, in which there are two kinds of order parameters of gauge symmetry breaking. The one is the zero mode of the gauge field for the Euclidean time direction and the…
