We investigate the behavior of scalar quantum fields in cosmological backgrounds under modified dispersion relations, specifically focusing on how ultraviolet asymptotics influence field quantization. We establish the conditions for both…
Using resummation in perturbation theories at finite temperature or in non-equilibrium is unavoidable to obtain consistent results. Resummation, however, is often in conflict with renormalization. In this talk we give two possible solutions…
This paper proposes a different interpretation on the renormalization program of an interacting Klein-Gordon field in curved space-times. Rather than being just another renormalization program we argue that it that it makes the QFT…
We present a general formalism that allows for the computation of large-order renormalized expansions in the spacetime representation, effectively doubling the numerically attainable perturbation order of renormalized Feynman diagrams. We…
There exist certain intrinsic relations between the ultraviolet divergent graphs and the convergent ones at the same loop order in renormalizable quantum field theories. Whereupon we present a new method, the inserter regularization method,…
Application of asymptotic freedom to the ultraviolet stability in Euclidean quantum field theories is revisited and illustrated through the hierarchical model making also use of a few technical developments that followed the original works…
Very high energy physics needs a coherent description of the four fundamental forces. Non-commutative geometry is a promising mathematical framework which already allowed to unify the general relativity and the standard model, at the…
Standard superspace Feynman diagram rules give one estimate of the onset of ultraviolet divergences in supergravity and super Yang-Mills theories. Newer techniques motivated by string theory but which also make essential use of unitarity…
We explore quantum field theories with fractional d'Alembertian $\Box^\gamma$. Both a scalar field theory with a derivative-dependent potential and gauge theory are super-renormalizable for a fractional power $1<\gamma\leq 2$, one-loop…
Models of reaction diffusion processes usually employ discrete lattice models with particles interacting at the same site, resulting in localized reactions in the continuum limit. Here, various non-local interactions are considered, and two…
In this paper I argue that infinities in the classical computation theory such as the unsolvability of the Halting Problem can be addressed in the same way as Feynman divergences in Quantum Field Theory, and that meaningful versions of…
We present a new exact renormalization approach for quantum lattice models leading to long-range interactions. The renormalization scheme is based on wavelets with an infinite support in such a way that the excitation spectrum at the fixed…
We reassess the problem of renormalization in finite temperature field theory (FTFT). A new point of view elucidates the relation between the ultraviolet divergences for T=0 and $T \not= 0$ theories and makes clear the reason why the…
A certain pattern of divergence of perturbative expansions in quantum field theories, related to their small and large momentum behaviour, is known as renormalons. We review formal and phenomenological aspects of renormalon divergence. We…
We apply the dimensional regularization procedure to treat an ultraviolet divergence occurring in the framework of the nuclear many-body problem. We consider the second--order correction (beyond the mean-field approximation) to the equation…
Concerning renormalisation group theory applied to phase transitions, we examine the value of positive numerical and analytical evidence, the divergent short-wavelength behaviour of classical free fields and the absence of UV-divergences in…
The structure of the UV divergencies in higher dimensional nonrenormalizable theories is analysed. Based on renormalization operation and renormalization group theory it is shown that even in this case the leading divergencies (asymptotics)…
In view of various field-theoretic reasons, in the present work, we study the question of if the usual dimensional regularization can be extended to quantum field theories with an ultraviolet cutoff (Poincare-breaking scale) in a way…
In a previous paper "Anomalies in Quantum Field Theory and Cohomologies of Configuration Spaces" (arXiv:0903.0187) we presented a new method for renormalization in Euclidean configuration spaces based on certain renormalization maps. This…
A perturbative approach for non renormalizable theories is developed. It is shown that the introduction of an extra expansion parameter allows one to get rid of divergences and express physical quantities as series with finite coefficients.…
