The approach developed in the first part of this work, partly based on large deviations, led to the non-existence of interacting scalar fields as strong limits of regularized fields in finite volume and dimensions $d\geq 4$. This second…
The differential equations of the Wilson renormalization group are a powerful tool to study the Schwinger functions of Euclidean quantum field theory. In particular renormalization theory can be based entirely on inductively bounding their…
The construction of quantum field theory (QFT) of a free massive scalar field with respect to a general congruence of observers is considered, the splitting into positive- and negative-frequency modes being defined by diagonalization of the…
We investigate the infinite volume limit of the variational description of Euclidean quantum fields introduced in a previous work. Focussing on two dimensional theories for simplicity, we prove in details how to use the variational approach…
We discuss a D-dimensional Euclidean scalar field interacting with a scale invariant quantized metric. We assume that the metric depends on d-dimensional coordinates where d<D. We show that the interacting quantum fields have more regular…
The infinite dimensional generalization of the quantum mechanics of extended objects, namely, the quantum field theory of extended objects is presented. The paradigm example studied in this paper is the Euclidean scalar field with a…
The "triviality" of $(\lambda\Phi^4)_4$ quantum field theory means that the renormalized coupling $\lambda_R$ vanishes for infinite cutoff. That result inherently conflicts with the usual perturbative approach, which begins by postulating a…
In this paper $4$ dimensional Riemannian (or Euclidean) vacuum general relativity is recovered from a phase transition by spontaneous symmetry breaking within a quantum field theory (all in the sense of the operator algebraic approach to…
A scalar field theory with 4-derivative kinetic terms and 4-derivative cubic and quartic couplings is presented as a proxy for quantum quadratic gravity (QQG). The scalar theory is renormalizable and asymptotically free and the remaining…

We show that scalar quantum field theory in four Euclidean dimensions with global $O(N)^3$ symmetry and imaginary tetrahedral coupling is asymptotically free and bounded from below in the large-N limit. While the Hamiltonian is…
We have constructed the mean-field trivial solution of the $\varphi^4$ theory $O(N)$ model in four dimensions in two previous papers using the flow equations of the renormalization group. Here we establish a relation between the trivial…
We construct a theory of fields living on continuous geometries with fractional Hausdorff and spectral dimensions, focussing on a flat background analogous to Minkowski spacetime. After reviewing the properties of fractional spaces with…
We reinterpret the spectral dimension of spacetimes as the scaling of an effective self-energy transition amplitude in quantum field theory (QFT), when the system is probed at a given resolution. This picture has four main advantages: (a)…
Nonperturbative treatments of the UV limit of pure gravity suggest that it admits a stable fixed point with positive Newton's constant and cosmological constant. We prove that this result is stable under the addition of a scalar field with…
Interacting quantum scalar field theories in $dS_D\times M_d$ spacetime can be reduced to Euclidean field theories in $M_d$ space in the vicinity of $I_+$ infinity of $dS_D$ spacetime. Using this non-perturbative mapping, we analyze the…
Standard quantization using, for example, path integration of field theory models, includes paths of momentum and field reach infinity in the Hamiltonian density, while the Hamiltonian itself remains finite. That fact causes considerable…
Quantum fluctuations, through quantum corrections, have the potential to lead to irreversibility in quantum field theory. We consider the virtual ``charge" distribution generated by quantum corrections in the leading log, short range…
It is suggested that the Minkowski vacuum of quantum field theories of a large number of fields N would be gravitationally unstable due to strong vacuum energy fluctuations unless an N dependent sub-Planckian ultraviolet momentum cutoff is…
It is well known that a minimal distance emerges in quantum field theories owing to the need to regularize the UV divergences. The macroscopical limit at large minimal distance, weak spatial resolution, is investigated for a self…
