We consider a massive scalar field with quartic self-interaction $\lambda/4!\,\phi^4$ in de~Sitter spacetime and present a diagrammatic expansion that describes the field as driven by stochastic noise. This is compared with the Feynman…
In flat space, the scattering amplitudes of certain scalar effective field theories exhibit enhanced soft limits due to the presence of hidden symmetries. In this paper, we show that this phenomenon extends to wavefunction coefficients in…

We derive the spectrum in the broken phase of a $\lambda\phi^4$ theory, in the limit $\lambda\to\infty$, showing that this goes as even integers of a renormalized mass in agreement with recent lattice computations.
We formulate the Schiffer's conjecture in spectral geometry in the context of scattering theory. The problem is equivalent to finding a non-trivial solution in an interior transmission problem. We compare the back-scattering data of the…

In $D$ dimensional de Sitter space, a scalar field has an infinite tower of special tachyonic mass values at which enhanced shift symmetries appear. After modding out by these shift symmetries, these fields correspond to the unitary…

We study the infrared (long distance) behavior of the free photon field in de Sitter spacetime. Using a two-parameter family of gauge fixing terms, we show that the infrared (IR) behavior of the two-point function is highly gauge-dependent…
In this paper we will analyse quantum field theory on de Sitter spacetime. We will analyse a general scalar and vector field theory on de Sitter spacetime. This is done by first calculating these propagators on four-Sphere and then…
We explore two-point and four-point correlation functions of a massive scalar field on the flat de Sitter background in the long-wavelength approximation. By employing the Yang-Feldman-type equation, we compute the two-point correlation…
We construct a class of extended shift symmetries for fields of all integer spins in de Sitter (dS) and anti-de Sitter (AdS) space. These generalize the shift symmetry, galileon symmetry, and special galileon symmetry of massless scalars in…

We consider a quantum scalar field with {\lambda}{\phi}^4 interaction in curved spacetimes. The quantum effects are taken into account nonperturbatively using the Hartree approximation to the 2PI effective action. Although this…
The $\phi^4$ field model is generalized to the case when the field $\phi(x)$ is defined on a Lie group: $S[\phi]=\int_{x\in G} L[\phi(x)] d\mu(x)$, $d\mu(x)$ is the left-invariant measure on a locally compact group $G$. For the particular…
