We provide a full and unbiased solution to the Dyson-Schwinger equation illustrated for $\phi^4$ theory in 2D. It is based on an exact treatment of the functional derivative $\partial \Gamma / \partial G$ of the 4-point vertex function…
In this paper we study the renormalization of the Schwinger-Dyson equations that arise in the auxiliary field formulation of the O(N) $\phi^4$ field theory. The auxiliary field formulation allows a simple interpretation of the large-N…

Two examples of recent progress in applications of the Dyson-Schwinger equation (DSE) formalism are presented: (1) Strong coupling quantum electrodynamics in 4 dimensions (QED$_4$) is an often studied model, which is of interest both in its…
In this article we define and quantize a truncated form of the nonassociative and noncommutative Snyder phi^4 field theory using the functional method in momentum space. More precisely, the action is approximated by expanding up to the…
We studied different levels of resummations of the exactly solvable Bloch-Nordsieck model in order to be able to compare the approximations with an exact result. We studied one-loop perturbation theory, 2PI resummation and Schwinger-Dyson…
We compare the solutions of one-scale Dyson-Schwinger equations in the Minimal subtraction (MS) scheme to the solutions in kinematic (MOM) renormalization schemes. We establish that the MS-solution can be interpreted as a MOM-solution, but…

The renormalized Dyson-Schwinger equation for the quark propagator is studied, in Landau gauge, in a novel truncation which preserves multiplicative renormalizability. The renormalization constants are formally eliminated from the integral…
It is well known that some quantum and statistical fluctuations of a quantum field may be recovered by adding suitable stochastic sources to the mean field equations derived from the Schwinger-Keldysh (Closed-time-path) effective action. In…
The core of this thesis is the path-integral formulation of quantum field theory and its ability to describe strongly-coupled quantum many-body systems of finite size. Collective behaviors can be efficiently described in such systems…
