The question of the asymptotic form of the perturbation expansion in scalar field theories is reconsidered. Renewed interest in the computation of terms in the epsilon-expansion, used to calculate critical exponents, has been frustrated by…
A very general calculational strategy is applied to the evaluation of the divergent physical amplitudes which are typical of perturbative calculations. With this approach in the final results all the intrinsic arbitrariness of the…
It is argued that the amplitudes of the production of $n$ soft scalar particles by one or a few energetic ones in theories like $\lambda\phi^4$ has the exponential form, $A_n\propto\sqrt{n!}\exp[{1\over\lambda}F(\lambda n,\epsilon)]$, in…
Threshold amplitudes are considered for $n$-particle production in arbitrary scalar theory. It is found that, like in $\phi ^4$, leading-$n$ corrections to the tree level amplitudes, being summed over all loops, exponentiate. This result…

The first paper of this series introduced objects (elements of twisted relative cohomology) that are Poincar\'e dual to Feynman integrals. We show how to use the pairing between these spaces -- an algebraic invariant called the intersection…
It is by now well established that, by means of the integration by part identities, all the integrals occurring in the evaluation of a Feynman graph of given topology can be expressed in terms of a few independent master integrals. It is…
Feynman integrals in quantum field theory evaluate to special functions and numbers that are usefully described by the notion of transcendental weight. In this paper, we propose a way of projecting a given dimensionally-regularised Feynman…
The small angle approximation often fails to explain experimental data, does not even predict if a plane pendulum's period increases or decreases with increasing amplitude. We make a perturbation ansatz for the Conserved Energy Surfaces of…
We define Mellin amplitudes for the fermion-scalar four point function and the fermion four point function. The Mellin amplitude thus defined has multiple components each associated with a tensor structure. In the case of three spacetime…
The field-theoretic wavefunction has received renewed attention with the goal of better understanding observables at the boundary of de Sitter spacetime and studying the interior of Minkowski or general FLRW spacetime. Understanding the…
New approach to computing the amplitudes of multi-particle processes in renormalizable quantum field theories is presented. Its major feature is a separation of the renormalization from the computation. Within the suggested approach new…
Scattering amplitudes which describe the interaction of physical states play an important role in determining physical observables. In string theory the physical states are given by vibrations of open and closed strings and their…
We consider a conformal field theory for bosons on the Riemann sphere. Correlation functions are defined as singular limits of functional integrals. The main result is that these amplitudes define transition amplitudes, that is multilinear…
We highlight the latest developments in computing higher-order scattering amplitudes with massive internal propagators. The contributing Feynman integrals often lead to special classes of functions, for example, functions associated with…
For gauge theories with confinement, the analytic structure of amplitudes is explored. It is shown that the analytic properties of physical amplitudes are the same as those obtained on the basis of an effective theory involving only the…
The analytic integration and simplification of multi-loop Feynman integrals to special functions and constants plays an important role to perform higher order perturbative calculations in the Standard Model of elementary particles. In this…
Amplitudes are the major logical object in Quantum Theory. Despite this fact they presents no physical reality and in consequence only observables can be experimetally checked. We discuss the possibility of a theory of Quantum Probabilities…
Recently, we proposed a new approach for calculating Feynman graphs amplitude using the Gaussian representation for propagators which was proven to be exact in the limit of graphs having an infinite number of loops. Regge behavior was also…
