Covariant, self-interacting scalar quantum field theories admit solutions for low enough spacetime dimensions, but when additional divergences appear in higher dimensions, the traditional approach leads to results, such as triviality, that…
Guided by idealized but soluble nonrenormalizable models, a nontraditional proposal for the quantization of covariant scalar field theories is advanced, which achieves a term-by-term, divergence-free perturbation analysis of interacting…
The light-front Hamiltonian formulation for the scalar field theory contains a new ingredient in the form of a constraint equation. Renormalization of the two dimensional $\phi^{4}$ theory, described in the continuum, is discussed. The mass…
Conventional quantization of covariant scalar field models $\phi^4_n$, for spacetime dimensions $n\ge5$ are trivial, and this may also be true for $n=4$ as well. However, an alternative ${\cal O}(\hbar)$ counterterm leads to nontrivial…
We report results of a Monte Carlo simulation of the $\phi^4$ quantum field theory using multigrid simulation techniques and a refined discretization scheme. The resulting accuracy of our data allows for a significant test of an analytical…
Present day quantum field theory (QFT) is founded on canonical quantization, which has served quite well, but also has led to several issues. The free field describing a free particle (with no interaction term) can suddenly become…
Non-commutative Euclidean scalar field theory is shown to have an eigenvalue sector which is dominated by a well-defined eigenvalue density, and can be described by a matrix model. This is established using regularizations of R^{2n}_\theta…
We study the low-energy effective action $S_{eff}[\varphi]$ for the one-component real scalar field theory in three Euclidean dimensions in the symmetric phase, concentrating on its static part --- effective potential $V_{eff}(\varphi)$. It…
We study the effective potential of a real scalar phi^4 theory as a function of the temperature T within the simplest Phi-derivable approximation, namely the Hartree approximation. We apply renormalization at a "high" temperature T* where…
At high temperatures a four dimensional field theory is reduced to a three dimensional field theory. In this letter we consider the $\phi^4$ theory whose parameters are chosen so that a thermal phase transition occurs at a high temperature.…
Noncommutative quantum field theory of a complex scalar field is considered. There is a two-coupling noncommutative analogue of U(1)-invariant quartic interaction $(\phi^*\phi)^2$, namely $A\phi^*\star\phi\star\phi^*\star\phi+…
The process of canonical quantization is redefined so that the classical and quantum theories coexist when \hbar>0, just as they do in the real world. This analysis not only supports conventional procedures, it also reveals new quantization…
Massless and massive scalar fields and massless spinor fields are considered at arbitrary temperatures in four dimensional ultrastatic curved spacetime. Scalar models under consideration can be either conformal or nonconformal and include…
