It is argued that the amplitudes of the production of $n$ soft scalar particles by one or a few energetic ones in theories like $\lambda\phi^4$ has the exponential form, $A_n\propto\sqrt{n!}\exp[{1\over\lambda}F(\lambda n,\epsilon)]$, in…
Efficient computation methods are devised for the perturbative solution of Schwinger--Dyson equations for propagators. We show how a simple computation allows to obtain the dominant contribution in the sum of many parts of previous…
The thermodynamics of a scalar field with a quartic interaction is studied within the linear delta expansion (LDE) method. Using the imaginary-time formalism the free energy is evaluated up to second order in the LDE. The method generates…
It is a long-standing question whether the confinement of matter fields in QCD has an imprint in the (gauge-dependent) correlation functions, especially the propagators. As the analytic structure plays an important role in this question,…
