We apply the generalized Abel-Plana formula for the investigation of one-loop quantum effects on manifolds with boundaries. This allows to extract from the vacuum expectation values of local physical observables the parts corresponding to…
In quantum field theory the vacuum expectation values of physical observables, bilinear in the field operator, diverge. Among the most important points in the investigations of those expectation values is the regularization of divergent…
The Proca model is quantized in an open-path dependent representation that generalizes the Loop Representation of gauge theories. The starting point is a gauge invariant Lagrangian that reduces to the Proca Lagrangian when certain gauge is…
We study two--loop renormalization in $(2+\epsilon)$--dimensional quantum gravity. As a first step towards the full calculation, we concentrate on the divergences which are proportional to the number of matter fields. We calculate the…
The quantum effective action of non-minimal vector fields with Abelian or non-Abelian gauge degrees of freedom in curved spacetime is studied. The Proca or Yang-Mills fields are coupled to a local mass-like term acting in both coordinate…
We present a simple, new method for the 1-loop renormalization of integrable $\sigma$-models. By treating equations of motion and Bianchi identities on an equal footing, we derive 'universal' formulae for the 1-loop on-shell divergences,…
The classical approximation provides a non-perturbative approach to time-dependent problems in finite temperature field theory. We study the divergences in hot classical field theory perturbatively. At one-loop, we show that the linear…
Unifying the massive spin-1 field with gravity requires the implementation of a regular vector field that satisfies the spin-1 Proca equation and is a fundamental part of the spacetime metric. That vector field is one of the pair of vectors…
This work presents some results about Wick polynomials of a vector field renormalization in locally covariant algebraic quantum field theory in curved spacetime. General vector fields are pictured as sections of natural vector bundles over…
We introduce a technique for recovering a sufficiently smooth function from its ray transform over a wide class of curves in a general region of Euclidean space. The method is based on a complexification of the underlying vector fields…
We consider a massive vector field with derivative interactions that propagates only the 3 desired polarizations (besides two tensor polarizations from gravity) with second-order equations of motion in curved space-time. The cosmological…
We study a renormalizable four dimensional model with two deformed quantized space directions. A one-loop renormalization is performed explicitly. The Euclidean model is connected to the Minkowski version via an analytic continuation. At a…
Returning to the old problems in ordinary QED, by an appropriate extension of the dimensional regularization method in noncommutative space we try to provide a quite coherent look into NCQED.The renormalisation of theories, the $\beta$…
We consider the renormalization of general gauge theories on curved space-time background, with the main assumption being the existence of a gauge-invariant and diffeomorphism invariant regularization. Using the Batalin-Vilkovisky (BV)…
We study the one loop renormalization in the most general metric-dilaton theory with the second derivative terms only. The general theory can be divided into two classes, models of one are equivalent to conformally coupled with gravity…
In this paper we construct a version of the standard model gauge sector on noncommutative space-time which is one-loop renormalizable to first order in the expansion in the noncommutativity parameter $\theta$. The one-loop renormalizability…

In two dimensions, we consider the problem of reconstructing a vector field from partial knowledge of its zeroth and first moment ray transforms. Different from existing works the data is known on a subset of lines, namely the ones…
In this work we will summarise the recent progress made in constructing consistent theories for a massive vector field with derivative self-interactions. The construction is such that only the three desired polarisations of the Proca field…
We study the inverse problem of recovering a vector field in $\mathbb{R}^2$ from a set of new generalized $V$-line transforms in three different ways. First, we introduce the longitudinal and transverse $V$-line transforms for vector fields…
