We consider the massive vector $N$-component $(\lambda\phi^{4})_{D}$ theory in Euclidian space and, using an extended Matsubara formalism we perform a compactification on a $d$-dimensional subspace, $d\leq D$. This allows us to treat…
We consider the $N$-components 3-dimensional massive Gross-Neveu model compactified in one spatial direction, the system being constrained to a slab of thickness $L$. We derive a closed formula for the renormalized $L$-dependent four-point…
By the concurrent use of two different resummation methods, the composite operator formalism and the Dyson-Schwinger equation, we re-examinate the behavior at finite temperature of the O(N)-symmetric $\lambda\phi^{4}$ model in a generic…
In the classically unbroken phase, 3d $O(N)$ symmetric $\phi^4$ vector models admit two equivalent descriptions connected by a strong-weak duality closely related to the one found by Chang and Magruder long ago. We determine the exact…

We investigate the critical behaviour of the $N$-component Euclidean $\lambda \phi^4$ model at leading order in $\frac{1}{N}$-expansion. We consider it in three situations: confined between two parallel planes a distance $L$ apart from one…
The renormalization group flows of the coupling constants for the gauged U(N) vector model, with N_f massless fermions in the defining representation, are studied in the large N limit, to all orders in the scalar coupling lambda, leading…
We study the coupling matrix of $\mathcal{N}=2$ $SU(N)$ gauge theories with $2N$ fundamental hypermultiplets in the special vacuum, where a residual $\mathbb{Z}_N$ symmetry restores nontrivial modular structure. Using symmetry and…
The renormalized zero-momentum four-point coupling $g_r$ of O(N)-invariant scalar field theories in $d$ dimensions is studied by applying the 1/N expansion and strong coupling analysis. The O(1/N) correction to the $\beta$-function and to…

Recently it was shown that the scaling dimension of the operator $\phi^n$ in $\lambda(\phi^*\phi)^2$ theory may be computed semi-classically at the Wilson-Fisher fixed point in $d=4-\epsilon$, for generic values of $\lambda n$ and this was…
We find novel perturbative fixed points by introducing mildly spacetime-dependent couplings into otherwise marginal terms. In four-dimensional QFT, these are physical analogues of the small-$\epsilon$ Wilson-Fisher fixed point. Rather than…
Perturbation theory of a large class of scalar field theories in $d<4$ can be shown to be Borel resummable using arguments based on Lefschetz thimbles. As an example we study in detail the $\lambda \phi^4$ theory in two dimensions in the…
We consider the possibility of the coupling constants of the $SU(3)\times SU(2)\times U(1)$ gauge interactions at the time of big bang nucleosynthesis having taken different values from what we measure at present, and investigate the…
We consider $\phi^4$ theory with $\phi(x)\in\mathbb{R}$ in two Euclidean dimensions. We determine for a variety of self-couplings $\hat{\lambda}$ the (negative) critical bare mass $\hat{\mu}_{0\mathrm{c}}^2(\hat{\lambda})$ where the…
We continue the analysis started in a recent paper of the large-N two-dimensional CP(N-1) sigma model, defined on a finite space interval L with Dirichlet (or Neumann) boundary conditions. Here we focus our attention on the problem of the…
We investigate the critical behavior of the lambda phi^4 theory defined on S^1 x R^d having two finite length scales beta, the circumference of S^1, and k^{-1}, the blocking scale introduced by the renormalization group transformation. By…
We make a detailed analysis of the spontaneous $Z_{2}$-symmetry breaking in the two dimensional real $\phi^{4}$ theory with the tensor renormalization group approach, which allows us to take the thermodynamic limit easily and determine the…
Using the nonperturbative renormalization group, we study the existence of bound states in the symmetry-broken phase of the scalar $\phi^4$ theory in all dimensions between two and four and as a function of the temperature. The accurate…
We employ the conformal bootstrap to re-examine the problem of finding the critical behavior of four-Fermion theory at its strong coupling fixed point. Existence of a solution of the bootstrap equations indicates self-consistency of the…
