We present a systematic description of the mathematical techniques for studying multiloop Feynman diagrams which constitutes a full-fledged and inherently more powerful alternative to the BPHZ theory. The new techniques emerged as a…

An asymptotic solution of the system of Schwinger-Dyson equations for four-dimensional Euclidean scalar field theory with interaction $\frac{\lambda}{2}(\phi^*\phi)^2$ is obtained. For $\lambda>\lambda_{cr}=16\pi^2$ the two-particle…

Two theorems on the asymptotic distribution of zeros of sequences of analytic functions are proved. First one relates the asymptotic behavior of zeros to the asymptotic behavior of coefficients. Second theorem establishes a relation between…

First results towards a general method for asymptotic expansions of Feynman amplitudes in the loop-tree duality (LTD) formalism are presented. The asymptotic expansion takes place at integrand-level in the Euclidean space of the loop…
We try to define the sequence of zeros of the Riemann zeta function by an intrinsic property. Let $(z_k)_{k\in \mathbb{N}}$ be the sequence of nontrivial zeros of $\zeta(s)$ with positive imaginary part. We write $z_k= 1/2+i\tau_k$ (RH says…
We show explicitly that Schwinger's formula for one-loop effective actions corresponds to the summation of energies associated with the zero-point oscillations of the fields. We begin with a formal proof, and after that we confirm it using…
We review generalized zeta functions built over the Riemann zeros (in short: "superzeta" functions). They are symmetric functions of the zeros that display a wealth of explicit properties, fully matching the much more elementary Hurwitz…
A canonical analysis of the first-order two-dimensional Einstein-Hilbert action has shown it to have no physical degrees of freedom and to possess an unusual gauge symmetry with a symmetric field $\xi_{\mu\nu}$ acting as a gauge function.…
In this paper we continue and improve the analysis of the effective actions obtained by integrating out a scalar and a fermion field coupled to external symmetric sources, started in the previous paper. The first subject we study is the…
We very slightly improve the leading constant of the (currently best) proven asymptotic zero-free region of the Riemann zeta-function, by using an easy improvement to a trigonometric polynomial.
We introduce the concept of superfield effective action in noncommutative N=1 supersymmetric field theories containing chiral superfields. One and two loops low-energy contributions to the effective action are found for the noncommutative…
For nonsupersymmetric theories, the one-loop effective action can be computed via zeta function regularization in terms of the functional trace of the heat kernel associated with the operator which appears in the quadratic part of the…
We analyze the long distance behavior of the two-point functions for an interacting scalar $O(N)$ model in de Sitter spacetime. Following our previous work, this behavior is analyzed by analytic continuation of the Euclidean correlators,…
A method is described for the development of the one-loop effective action expansion as an asymptotic series in inverse powers of the fermion mass. The method is based on the Schwinger-DeWitt proper-time technique, which allows for loop…
