This paper starts with a brief review of the topic of strong and weak pre- and post-selected (PPS) quantum measurements, as well as weak values, and afterwards presents original work. In particular, we develop a nonperturbative theory of…
Perturbation theory is an important tool in the analysis of oscillators and their response to external stimuli. It is predicated on the assumption that the perturbations in question are "sufficiently weak", an assumption that is not always…
We introduce N-parameter perturbation theory as a new tool for the study of non-linear relativistic phenomena. The main ingredient in this formulation is the use of the Baker-Campbell-Hausdorff formula. The associated machinery allows us to…
The `renormalon' or `dispersive' method for estimating non-perturbative corrections to QCD observables is reviewed. The corrections are power-suppressed, i.e. of the form $A/Q^p$ where $Q$ is the hard process momentum scale. The renormalon…
Systems with very long-range interactions (that decay at large distances like $U(r)\sim r^{-l}$ with $l\le d$ where $d$ is the space dimensionality) are difficult to study by conventional statistical mechanics perturbation methods. Examples…
In the study of open quantum systems, the polaron transformation has recently attracted a renewed interest as it offers the possibility to explore the strong system-bath coupling regime. Despite this interest, a clear and unambiguous…
The perturbation theory for critical points of causal variational principles is developed. We first analyze the class of perturbations obtained by multiplying the universal measure by a weight function and taking the push-forward under a…
The production of o(1/g^2) particles in a weakly-coupled theory is believed to be non-perturbatively suppressed. I comment on the prospects of (a) establishing this rigorously, and (b) estimating the effect to exponential accuracy…
Nonlinear effects are crucial in order to compute the cosmological matter power spectrum to the accuracy required by future generation surveys. Here, a new approach is presented, in which the power spectrum, the bispectrum and higher order…
Given a truncated perturbation expansion of a physical quantity, one can, under certain circumstances, obtain lower or upper bounds (or both) to the sum of the full perturbation series by using the Borel transform and a variational…
We develop a non-perturbative method for calculating partition functions of strongly coupled quantum mechanical systems with interactions between subsystems described by a path integral of a dual system. The dual path integral is derived…
The original Calder\'on problem consists in recovering the potential (or the conductivity) from the knowledge of the related Neumann to Dirichlet map (or Dirichlet to Neumann map). Here, we first perturb the medium by injecting small-scaled…
We improve and generalize in several accounts the recent rigorous proof of convergence of delta expansion - order dependent mappings (variational perturbation expansion) for the energy eigenvalues of anharmonic oscillator. For the…
We develop a renormalization group (RG)-based perturbation scheme for a class of ordinary differential equations, including first-order systems with semisimple or nilpotent linear parts, as well as scalar higher-order equations. The key…
The computational complexity of time-dependent perturbation theory is well-known to be largely combinatorial whatever the chosen expansion method and family of parameters (combinatorial sequences, Goldstone and other Feynman-type…
We study the perturbative approach to the Wilsonian integration of noncommutative gauge theories in the matrix representation. We begin by motivating the study of noncommutative gauge theories and reviewing the matrix formulation. We then…
We investigate the convergence properties of a perturbation method proposed some time ago and reveal some of it most interesting features. Anharmonic oscillators in the strong--coupling limit prove to be appropriate illustrative examples…
A new scheme of the iterative perturbation theory is proposed for the strongly correlated electron systems with orbital degeneracy. The method is based on the modified self-energy of Yeyati, et al. which interpolates between the weak and…
Using a method mixing Mellin-Barnes representation and Borel resummation we show how to obtain hyperasymptotic expansions from the (divergent) formal power series which follow from the perturbative evaluation of arbitrary "$N$-point"…
Singular perturbation theory plays a central role in the approximate solution of nonlinear differential equations. However, applying these methods is a subtle art owing to the lack of globally applicable algorithms. Inspired by the fact…
