The critical behavior of a non-local scalar field theory is studied. This theory has a non-local quartic interaction term which involves a real power -\beta of the Laplacian. The parameter \beta can be tuned so as to make that interaction…

In this paper, making use of Theorem 2 of [5], we establish a new four critical points theorem which can be regarded as a companion to Theorem 1 of [4]. We also present an application to the Dirichlet problem for a class of quasilinear…

We obtain precise plateau estimates for the two-point function of the finite-volume weakly-coupled hierarchical $|\varphi|^4$ model in dimensions $d \ge 4$, for both free and periodic boundary conditions, and for any number $n \ge 1$ of…

Spectral functions in the $\sigma$-channel are investigated near the chiral critical end point (CEP), that is, the point where the chiral phase transition ceases to be first-ordered in the $(\mu,T)$-plane of the QCD phase diagram. At that…

There have been some speculations about the existence of critical unitary O(N)-invariant scalar field theories in dimensions 4<d<6 and for large N. Using the functional renormalization group equation, we show that in the lowest order of the…

In this paper, we use crossing symmetry and unitarity constraints to put a lower bound on the central charge of conformal field theories in large space-time dimensions $D$. Specifically, we work with the four-point function of identical…

In local scalar quantum field theories (QFTs) at finite temperature correlation functions are known to satisfy certain non-perturbative constraints, which for two-point functions in particular implies the existence of a generalisation of…

We suggest to compute structure functions in the Hamiltonian formalism on a momentum lattice using a physically motivated regularisation that links the total parton number to the lattice size. We show for the $\phi ^4 _4$ theory that our…

Critical point scaling in a field $H$ applies for the limits $t\to 0$, (where $t=T/T_c-1$) and $H\to 0$ but with the ratio $R=t/H^{2/\Delta}$ finite. $\Delta$ is a critical exponent of the zero-field transition. We study the replicon…
