We study the large-$N$ scaling behavior of the $\theta$ dependence of the ground-state energy density $E(\theta)$ of four-dimensional (4D) $SU(N)$ gauge theories and two-dimensional (2D) $CP^{N-1}$ models, where $\theta$ is the parameter…
With the help of variational perturbation theory we continue the renormalization constants $\phi^4$-theories in $4- \epsilon$ dimensions to strong bare couplings $g_0$ and find their power behavior in $g_0$, thereby determining all critical…
The spontaneous symmetry breaking in (1+1)-dimensional $\phi^{4}$ theory is studied with discretized light-front quantization, that is, by solving the zero-mode constraint equation. The symmetric ordering is assumed for the operator-valued…
Recently it was shown that the scaling dimension of the operator $\phi^n$ in $\lambda(\bar\phi\phi)^2$ theory may be computed semiclassically at the Wilson-Fisher fixed point in $d=4-\epsilon$, for generic values of $\lambda n$, and this…
We analyse and clarify the finite-size scaling of the weakly-coupled hierarchical $n$-component $|\varphi|^4$ model for all integers $n \ge 1$ in all dimensions $d\ge 4$, for both free and periodic boundary conditions. For $d>4$, we prove…
The theta dependent of pure gauge theories in four dimensions can be studied using a duality of large N gauge theories with string theory on a certain spacetime. Via this duality, one can argue that for every theta, there are infinitely…
We consider the $O(N)^3$ tensor model of Klebanov and Tarnopolsky \cite{Klebanov:2016xxf} in $d<4$ with a free covariance modified to fit the infrared conformal scaling. We study the renormalization group flow of the model using a Wilsonian…
A high precision determination of the strong coupling constant in the MS-bar scheme at the Z-mass scale, using low energy quantities, namely pion/kaon decay constants and masses, as experimental input is presented. The computation employs…
The present work considers the phase transition between the confinement and "Coulomb" phases in U(1), SU(2) and SU(3)-sectors of Anti-grand unified theory described by regularized Wilson loop action. It was shown the independence of the…
We study the time evolution of the mass gap of the O(N) non-linear sigma model in 2+1 dimensions due to a time-dependent coupling in the large-$N$ limit. Using the Schwinger-Keldysh approach, we derive a set of equations at large $N$ which…
We review results concerning the theta dependence of 4D SU(N) gauge theories and QCD, where theta is the coefficient of the CP-violating topological term in the Lagrangian. In particular, we discuss theta dependence in the large-N limit.…
In a toy model of gauge and gravitational interactions in $D \ge 4$ dimensions, endowed with an invariant UV cut-off $\Lambda$, and containing a large number $N$ of non-self-interacting matter species, the physical gauge and gravitational…
The Kuramoto model was recently extended to arbitrary dimensions by reinterpreting the oscillators as particles moving on the surface of unit spheres in a D-dimensional space. Each particle is then represented by a D-dimensional unit…
We discuss finite-size effects in one disordered ${\lambda}{\phi}^{4}$ model defined in a $d$-dimensional Euclidean space. We consider that the scalar field satisfies periodic boundary conditions in one dimension and it is coupled with a…
We study the standard one-component $\varphi^4$-theory in four dimensions. A renormalized coupling is defined in a finite size renormalization scheme which becomes the standard scheme of the broken phase for large volumes. Numerical…
In strongly-coupled theories with no small parameters, there are factors of 4\pi that appear when the couplings of the low-energy effective lagrangian are written in units of the effective cutoff \Lambda. These numerical factors can be…
We use lattice formulation of $\phi^4$ theory in order to investigate non--perturbative features of its continuum limit in two dimensions. In particular, by means of Monte Carlo calculations, we obtain the critical coupling constant…
To study the behavior of the Kazakov-Migdal at large N the quenched momentum prescription with constraints for treating the large N limit of gauge theories is used. It is noted that it leads to a quartic dependence of an action on unitary…
