The analyticity properties of the scattering amplitude for a massive scalar field is reviewed in this article where the spacetime geometry is $R^{3,1}\otimes S^1$ i.e. one spatial dimension is compact. Khuri investigated the analyticity of…

We construct Wigner's continuous spin representations of the Poincar\'e algebra for massless particles in higher dimensions. The states are labeled both by the length of a space-like translation vector and the Dynkin indices of the {\it…
We study Schr\"odinger operators on the real line whose potentials are generated by the Fibonacci substitution sequence and a rule that replaces symbols by compactly supported potential pieces. We consider the case in which one of those…

The effective potential of quantized scalar field on fuzzy sphere is evaluated to the two-loop level. We see that one-loop potential behaves like that in the commutative sphere and the Coleman-Weinberg mechanism of the radiatively symmetry…
We use the General Boundary Formulation (GBF) of Quantum Field Theory to compute the S-matrix for a general interacting scalar field in a wide class of curved spacetimes. As a by-product we obtain the general expression of the Feynman…

The genuine Kaluza-Klein-like theories--with no fields in addition to gravity--have difficulties with the existence of massless spinors after the compactification of some space dimensions \cite{witten}. We proposed in previous paper a…
We propose an explicit spin-foam amplitude for Lorentzian gravity in three dimensions, allowing for both space- and time-like boundaries. The model is based on two main requirements: that it should be structurally similar to its well-known…
We provide new methods to straightforwardly obtain compact and analytic expressions for epsilon-expansions of functions appearing in both field and string theory amplitudes. An algebraic method is presented to explicitly solve for…
We extend Schwinger's proper-time formalism to provide a method for computing the one-loop effective action for both spinor and scalar quantum electrodynamics in $d=2n>4$ dimensions. The closed form expression for the six-dimensional…
The renormalization procedure of the non-linear SU(2) sigma model in D=4 proposed in hep-th/0504023 and hep-th/0506220 is here tested in a truly non-trivial case where the non-linearity of the functional equation is crucial. The simplest…
A method for calculating loop amplitudes at the multiboson threshold is presented, based on Feynman-diagram techniques. We explicitly calculate the one-loop amplitudes in both $\phi^4$-symmetric and broken symmetry cases, using dimensional…
We provide necessary and sufficient conditions for a Conformal Field Theory to have a description in terms of a perturbative Effective Field Theory in AdS. The first two conditions are well-known: the existence of a perturbative `1/N'…
The two point integrals contributing to the self energy of a particle in a three dimensional quantum field theory are calculated to two loop order in perturbation theory as well as the vacuum ones contributing to the effective potential to…
Eikonal exponentiation in QFT describes the emergence of classical physics at long distances in terms of a non-trivial resummation of infinitely many diagrams. Long ago, 't Hooft proposed a beautiful correspondence between…
