In order to extract maximal information about cosmology from the large-scale structure of the Universe, one needs to use every bit of signal that can be observed. Beyond the spatial distributions of astronomical objects, the spatial…
We review our recent results on the renormalization procedure for a free quantum scalar field with modified dispersion relations in curved spacetimes. For dispersion relations containing up to $2s$ powers of the spatial momentum, the…
Sampling of a spatiotemporal field for environmental sensing is of interest. Traditionally, a few fixed stations or sampling locations aid in the reconstruction of the spatial field. Recently, there has been an interest in mobile sensing…
A general method for extending a non-dissipative nonlinear Schr\"odinger and Liouville-von Neumann 1-particle dynamics to an arbitrary number of particles is described. It is shown at a general level that the dynamics so obtained is…
Quantum field theory has been shown recently renormalizable on flat Moyal space and better behaved than on ordinary space-time. Some models at least should be completely finite, even beyond perturbation theory. In this paper a first step is…
We discuss $\theta$-deformed Maxwell theory at first order in $\theta$ with the help of the Seiberg-Witten (SW) map. With an appropriate field redefinition consistent with the SW-map we analyse the one-loop corrections of the vacuum…
It is well known how multiplicative renormalizability of the fermion propagator, through its Schwinger-Dyson equation, imposes restrictions on the 3-point fermion-boson vertex in massless quenched quantum electrodynamics in 4-dimensions…
We review the status of (scalar) quantum field theory on curved spacetimes using a novel formulation in terms of non linear functionals over the smooth configuration fields. In particular, this entails also a new foundation of locally…
The question of the asymptotic form of the perturbation expansion in scalar field theories is reconsidered. Renewed interest in the computation of terms in the epsilon-expansion, used to calculate critical exponents, has been frustrated by…
An elementary introduction to perturbative renormalization and renormalization group is presented. No prior knowledge of field theory is necessary because we do not refer to a particular physical theory. We are thus able to disentangle what…
We discuss progress towards the classification of irreducible admissible representations of reductive groups over non-archimedean local fields and the local Langlands correspondence. We also state some (partly conjectural) compatibility…
The previously developed renormalizable perturbative 1/N-expansion in higher dimensional scalar field theories is extended to gauge theories with fermions. It is based on the $1/N_f$-expansion and results in a logarithmically divergent…
We study the nonlinear realization of supersymmetry in a dynamical/cosmological background in which derivative terms like kinetic terms are finite. Starting from linearly realized theories, we integrate out heavy modes without neglecting…
We reconstruct the field potentials in case of (non)phantom fields for different models resulting from parametrization of q(t), a(t) or H(t). In addition we carry out similar procedure for tachyonic field. We also discuss specific form of…
A natural procedure is introduced to replace the traditional, perturbatively generated counter terms to yield a formulation of covariant, self-interacting, nonrenormalizable scalar quantum field theories that has the added virtue of…
We study the reconstruction of bandlimited fields from samples taken at unknown but statistically distributed sampling locations. The setup is motivated by distributed sampling where precise knowledge of sensor locations can be difficult.…
We introduce a new type of cluster expansion which generalizes a previous formula of Brydges and Kennedy. The method is especially suited for performing a phase-space multiscale expansion in a just renormalizable theory, and allows the…
Effective field theories, like the Standard Model Effective Field Theory (SMEFT), are defined by a chosen field content and a set of symmetries, up to a cut off scale $\Lambda$. Usually, in order to perform calculations, gauge independent…
Using $\delta N$ formalism, in the context of a generic multi-field inflation driven on a non-flat field space background, we revisit the analytic expressions of the various cosmological observables such as scalar/tensor power spectra,…
We consider a scalar quantum field $\phi$ with arbitrary polynomial self-interaction in perturbation theory. If the field variable $\phi$ is repaced by a local diffeomorphism $\phi(x) = \rho(x) + a_1 \rho^2(x) +\ldots$, this field $\rho$…
