Finite volume multiple-particle interaction is studied in a two-dimensional complex $\phi^4$ lattice model. The existence of analytical solutions to the $\phi^4$ model in two-dimensional space and time makes it a perfect model for the…
The spontaneous symmetry breaking in (1+1)-dimensional $\phi^{4}$ theory is studied with discretized light-front quantization, that is, by solving the zero-mode constraint equation. The symmetric ordering is assumed for the operator-valued…
We develop a variational approximation to the entanglement entropy for scalar $\phi^4$ theory in 1+1, 2+1, and 3+1 dimensions, and then examine the entanglement entropy as a function of the coupling. We find that in 1+1 and 2+1 dimensions,…
It has long been known that perturbative calculations in scalar multi-particle production could break down since fast growing amplitudes appear. A recent calculation in the regime $ \lambda n \gg 1$, where $ n $ is the multiplicity and $…

We calculate the explicit expression of the effective potential in a $\lambda\phi^4$ theory at finite temperature in a static universe for arbitrary spacetime dimensions (2\leq D < 5). To study the combined effects of the temperature and…
Calculations of high multiplicity Higgs amplitudes exhibit a rapid growth that may signal an end of perturbative behavior or even the need for new physics phenomena. As a step towards this problem we consider the quantum mechanical…
Calculations of $1\to N$ amplitudes in scalar field theories at very high multiplicities exhibit an extremely rapid growth with the number $N$ of final state particles. This either indicates an end of perturbative behaviour, or possibly…

We look at multiparticle production processes from the nonextensive point of view. Nonextensivity means here the systematic deviations in exponential formulas provided by the usual statistical approach for description of some observables…
We formulate empirically the rapidity density distribution of produced particles in multiple particle production. The assumed mechanism is that the produced particles are emitted isotropically from several emitting centers, located on the…
