In this note we show that $\beta'_*$, the $\beta$-function slopes in the electric and magnetic theories are equal at the corresponding infrared fixed points. This follows from the scaling of the correlators of the trace of the energy…
We give a non-perturbative proof of a gradient formula for beta functions of two-dimensional quantum field theories. The gradient formula has the form \partial_{i}c = - (g_{ij}+\Delta g_{ij} +b_{ij})\beta^{j} where \beta^{j} are the beta…
We introduce a new kind of foliated quantum field theory (FQFT) of gapped fracton orders in the continuum. FQFT is defined on a manifold with a layered structure given by one or more foliations, which each decompose spacetime into a stack…
A comprehensive analysis on the photon self-energy, the fermion self-energy, and the fermion vertex function is presented at one loop in the context of quantum electrodynamics (QED) with 1 extra dimension. In 5-dimensional theories,…
We demonstrate how one can construct renormalizable perturbative expansion in formally nonrenormalizable higher dimensional scalar theories. It is based on 1/N-expansion and results in a logarithmically divergent perturbation theory in…
Effective field theories (EFTs) provide a powerful framework to parametrise unknown aspects of possible ultraviolet (UV) physics. For scalar fields in de Sitter space, however, new emergent phenomena can arise when the cut-off scale of the…
In the present paper, we intent to enlarge the axiomatic framework of non-commutative quantum field theories (QFT). We consider QFT on non-commutative spacetimes in terms of the tempered ultrahyperfunctions of Sebasti\~ao e Silva…
The problem of gauge invariance in an ultraviolet complete quantum field theory (QFT) with nonlocal interactions is investigated. For local fields that couple through a nonlocal interaction, it is demonstrated that the quantum…
Conformal symmetry always played an important role in field theory (both quantum and classical) and in gravity. We present construction of quantum conformal gravity and discuss its features regarding scattering amplitudes and quantum…
The beta-function is calculated for an SU(N) Yang-Mills theory from an ansatz for the vacuum wavefunctional. Direct comparison is made with the results of calculations of the beta-function of QCD. In both cases the theories are…
We analyze a beta function with the analytic form of Novikov-Shifman-Vainshtein-Zakharov result in the five dimensional gravity-dilaton environment. We show how dilaton inherits poles and fixed points of such beta function through the zeros…
The variational method is a powerful approach to solve many-body quantum problems non perturbatively. However, in the context of relativistic quantum field theory (QFT), it needs to meet 3 seemingly incompatible requirements outlined by…
We compute at the one-loop order the beta-functions for a renormalisable non-commutative analog of the Gross Neveu model defined on the Moyal plane. The calculation is performed within the so called x-space formalism. We find that this…
We propose a self-consistency equation for the $\beta$-function for theories with a large number of flavours, $N$, that exploits all the available information in the Wilson-Fisher critical exponent, $\omega$, truncated at a fixed order in…
We study the dependence of beta-function on running coupling constant in holographic models supported by Einstein-dilaton-Maxwell action for light and heavy quarks. Although, in the previous paper [arXiv:2402.14512], we considered different…
By explicit solution of the one-loop finiteness conditions for all dimensionless coupling constants (i.~e., gauge coupling constant as well as Yukawa and quartic scalar-boson self-interaction coupling constants), two classes of grand…
Yang-Mills theory in the first order formalism appears as the deformation of a topological field theory, the pure BF theory. We discuss this formulation at the quantum level, giving the Feynman rules of the BF-YM theory, the structure of…
We study quantum aspects of the recently constructed doubly lambda-deformed sigma-models representing the effective action of two WZW models interacting via current bilinears. We show that although the exact beta-functions and current…
We suggest a version of renormalizable Quantum Field Theory which does not contain non-perturbative effects. This is otained by the proper use of the boundary conditions in the functional integral of the generating functional of Green…
The SU(3) beta function is computed from Wilson loops to 20th order numerical stochastic perturbation theory. An attempt is made to include massless fermions, whose contribution is known analytically to 4th order. The question whether the…
