A classical nonrelativistic effective field theory for a real Lorentz-scalar field $\phi$ is most conveniently formulated in terms of a complex scalar field $\psi$. There have been two derivations of effective Lagrangians for the complex…

The one-loop effective action for Einstein gravity in a special one-parameter background gauge is calculated up to first order in a gauge parameter. It is shown that the effective action does not depend upon the gauge parameter on shell.
In this note we consider a non-linear, large-$N$ ${\mathbb C}P^{N-1}$ sigma model on a finite size interval with periodic boundary conditions, at finite temperature and chemical potential in the regime of $\beta \mu$ large. Our goal is to…

Perturbation theory at finite temperature suffers from well-known infrared problems. In the standard model, as a result, one cannot calculate the effective potential for arbitrarily small values of $\phi$, the Higgs expectation value.…
