Using the complex Klein-Gordon field as a model, we quantize the quaternionic scalar field in the real Hilbert space. The lagrangian formulation has accordingly been obtained, as well as the hamiltonian formulation, and the energy and…

The study of Finite Size Effects in Quantum Field Theory allows the extraction of precious perturbative and non-perturbative information. The use of scaling functions can connect the particle content (scattering theory formulation) of a QFT…

We propose a new algorithm for simulating noncommutative phi-four theory on the fuzzy sphere based on, i) coupling the scalar field to a U(1) gauge field, in such a way that in the commutative limit N\longrightarrow \infty, the two modes…

We discuss scalar field theories with potentials V({\phi})=\k{appa}({\phi}^2)^{{\nu}} for generic {\nu}. We conjecture that these models evade various no-go theorems for scalar fields in four spacetime dimensions.

I discuss some simple aspects of the low-energy physics of a nontrivial scale invariant sector of an effective field theory -- physics that cannot be described in terms of particles. I argue that it is important to take seriously the…

We have considered phi^4 theory in higher dimensions. Using functional diagrammatic approach, we computed the one-loop correction to effective potential of the scalar field in five dimensions. It is shown that phi^4 theory can be…

We show that the potential of the scalar field in the Einstein frame is flat if the nonminimal coupling term is properly chosen that it satisfies the condition (V(phi)/K^2(phi)-> constant) as phi gets large. The cosmological implication of…

We examine the nonequilibrium dynamics of a self-interacting $\lambda\phi^4$ scalar field theory. Using a real time formulation of finite temperature field theory we derive, up to two loops and $O(\lambda^2)$, the effective equation of…

The approach developed in the first part of this work, partly based on large deviations, led to the non-existence of interacting scalar fields as strong limits of regularized fields in finite volume and dimensions $d\geq 4$. This second…

We introduce a Skyrme type, four dimensional Euclidean field theory made of a triplet of scalar fields n, taking values on the sphere S^2, and an additional real scalar field phi, which is dynamical only on a three dimensional surface…

An ultralocal form of any classical field theory eliminates all spatial derivatives in its action functional, e.g., in its Hamiltonian functional density. It has been applied to covariant scalar field theories and even to Einstein's general…

We prove that any scaling limit of a critical reflection positive Ising or $\varphi^4$ model of effective dimension $d_{\text{eff}}$ at least four is Gaussian. This extends the recent breakthrough work of Aizenman and Duminil-Copin -- which…

Axions can be described by a relativistic field theory with a real scalar field $\phi$ whose self-interaction potential is a periodic function of $\phi$. Low-energy axions, such as those produced in the early universe by the vacuum…

The truncated 4-dimensional sphere $S^4$ and the action of the self-interacting scalar field on it are constructed. The path integral quantization is performed while simultaneously keeping the SO(5) symmetry and the finite number of degrees…

For a four dimensional, unitary, diffeomorphism- and scale invariant quantum field theory without higher derivatives and a well defined scale current we argue that scale invariance implies conformal invariance. The proof relies on the…

We show that, as a result of non-linear self-interactions, it is feasible, at least in light of the bounds coming from terrestrial tests of gravity, measurements of the Casimir force and those constraints imposed by the physics of compact…

For Klein-Gordon fields, it is well known that there exist an infinite number of nonequivalent Fock representations of the canonical commutation relations and, therefore, of inequivalent quantum theories. A context in which this kind of…

Effective field theories (EFT) parameterize the long-distance effects of short-distance dynamics whose details may or may not be known. It is known that EFT coefficients must obey certain positivity constraints if causality and unitarity…
