We construct the path integral for one-dimensional non-linear sigma models, starting from a given Hamiltonian operator and states in a Hilbert space. By explicit evaluation of the discretized propagators and vertices we find the correct…
In calculating Feynman diagrams at finite temperature, it is sometimes convenient to isolate subdiagrams which do not depend explicitly on the temperature. We show that, in the imaginary time formalism, such a separation can be achieved…

The computation of higher order processes very often involves a large number of diagrams. In addition, it is in general not possible to solve the occurring integrals explicitly and expansions in small quantities have to be performed. This…
Using the Feynman parameter method, we have calculated in an elegant manner a set of one$-$loop box scalar integrals with massless internal lines, but containing 0, 1, 2, or 3 external massive lines. To treat IR divergences (both soft and…
