We compute, at two-loop order, one-particle-irreducible Green functions and effective action in noncommutative $\lambda[\Phi^3]_\star$-theory for both planar (g=0, h=3) and nonplanar (g=1, h=1) contributions. We adopt worldline formulation…
Using the simple path integral method we calculate the $n$-point functions of field strength of Yang-Mills theories on arbitrary two-dimensional Riemann surfaces. In $U(1)$ case we show that the correlators consist of two parts , a free and…

We study Witten's cubic open string field theory on multiple $Dp$-branes. On multiple $Dp$-branes the string fields carry $U(N)$ group indices. Mapping the string world-sheet onto the upper half complex plane and evaluating the Polyakov…
We analyze the long distance behavior of the two-point functions for an interacting scalar $O(N)$ model in de Sitter spacetime. Following our previous work, this behavior is analyzed by analytic continuation of the Euclidean correlators,…
A new powerful method to calculate Feynman diagrams is proposed. It consists in setting up a Taylor series expansion in the external momenta squared (in general multivariable). The Taylor coefficients are obtained from the original diagram…

We study corrections to the scaling limit of subcritical long-range Ising models with (super)-summable interactions on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. For a wide class of models, the scaling limit is known to be white noise, as shown by Newman (1980). In…
Identifying useful flat-space limits for cosmological correlators, where they can be expressed in terms of observables in Minkowski space is nontrivial due to their scale-invariant nature. In recent years, it has been shown that…
