We consider a symmetric scalar theory with quartic coupling in 4-dimensions. We show that the 4 loop 2PI calculation can be done using a renormalization group method. The calculation involves one bare coupling constant which is introduced…

We develop a general framework for quantum field theory on noncommutative spaces, i.e., spaces with quantum group symmetry. We use the path integral approach to obtain expressions for $n$-point functions. Perturbation theory leads us to…

Summation of the perturbation series for the Gell-Mann--Low function \beta(g) of \phi^4 theory leads to the asymptotics \beta(g)=\beta_\infty g^\alpha at g\to\infty, where \alpha\approx 1 for space dimensions d=2,3,4. The natural hypothesis…

We consider a class of stochastic reaction-diffusion equations on the three dimensional torus. The non-linearities are odd polynomials in the weakly non-linear regime, and the smoothing mechanisms are very general higher order perturbations…

During the '70, several relativistic quantum field theory models in $D=1+1$ and also in $D=2+1$ have been constructed in a non-perturbative way. That was done in the so-called {\it constructive quantum field theory} approach, whose main…

We formulate a renormalized running coupling expansion for the $\beta$--function and the potential of the renormalized $\phi^4$--trajectory on four dimensional Euclidean space-time. Renormalization invariance is used as a first principle.…

We study perturbative aspects of noncommutative field theories. This work is arranged in two parts. First, we review noncommutative field theories in general and discuss both canonical and path integral quantization methods. In the second…

We revisit the renormalization of Phi-derivable approximations from a slightly different point of view than the one which is usually followed in previous works. We pay particular attention to the question of the existence of a solution to…

Consider complex semisimple Lie algebras of a given dimension specified by their structure constants. We describe a finite collection of rational functions in the structure constants that form a complete set of invariants: two sets of…

We study weak approximation on rationally connected varieties under an assumption of strong approximation for a "simple" variety or under Schinzel's hypothesis. We also get some unconditional results.

We apply the time-dependent variational principle of Balian and V\'en\'eroni to the $ \Phi^4$ theory. An appropriate parametrization for the variational objects allows us to write coupled dynamical equations from which we derive…

Liouville's theorem says that in dimension greater than two, all conformal maps are M\"obius transformations. We prove an analogous statement about simplicial complexes, where two simplicial complexes are considered discretely conformally…

We use a simple geometric argument and small cancellation properties of link groups to prove that alternating links are non-trivial. This proof uses only classic results in topology and combinatorial group theory.

We suggest a generalization of \pi_0 for topological groupoids, which encodes incidence relations among the strata of the associated quotient object, and argue for its utility by example, starting from the orbit categories of the theory of…

A space $X$ is $W$-trivial if for every real vector bundle $\alpha$ over $X$ the total Stiefel-Whitney class $w(\alpha)$ is 1. It follows from a result of Milnor that if $X$ is an orientable closed smooth manifold of dimension $1,2,4$ or…

In the Landau theory of phase transitions one considers an effective potential $\Phi$ whose symmetry group $G$ and degree $d$ depend on the system under consideration; generally speaking, $\Phi$ is the most general $G$-invariant polynomial…

A complex projective manifold is rationally connected, resp. rationally simply connected, if finite subsets are connected by a rational curve, resp. the spaces parameterizing these connecting rational curves are themselves rationally…

We introduce an explicit description of the $\Phi^4_3$ measure on a bounded domain. Our starting point is the interpretation of its Laplace transform as the value function of a stochastic optimal control problem along the flow of a scale…

We compute an all order correction to the scalar mass in the \Phi^4 theory using a new method of functional integration adjusted also to the large couplings regime.

Let $A$ and $C$ be two unital simple C*-algebas with tracial rank zero. Suppose that $C$ is amenable and satisfies the Universal Coefficient Theorem. Denote by ${{KK}}_e(C,A)^{++}$ the set of those $\kappa$ for which…
