We prove a general theorem on the stochastic convergence of appropriately renormalized models arising from nonlinear stochastic PDEs. The theory of regularity structures gives a fairly automated framework for studying these problems but…
We consider the scalar sector of the most general renormalizable two-Higgs-doublet model at non-zero temperature. We calculate the largest finite temperature corrections to the free-energy density and study thermal evolution of the ground…
The convergence properties of the resummed thermal perturbation series for the thermodynamic pressure are investigated by comparison with the exact results obtained in large-N phi^4 theory and possibilities for improvements are discussed.…
We studied different levels of resummations of the exactly solvable Bloch-Nordsieck model in order to be able to compare the approximations with an exact result. We studied one-loop perturbation theory, 2PI resummation and Schwinger-Dyson…
A renormalization-scale-invariant generalization of the diagonal Pad\'e approximants (dPA), developed previously, is extended so that it becomes renormalization-scheme-invariant as well. We do this explicitly when two terms beyond the…
Arguments are provided which show that extension of renormalizability in quantum field theory is possible. A dressed scheme for the perturbation expansion is proposed. It is proven that in this scheme a nonrenormalizable interaction becomes…
Using the 2PI effective action formalism, we study false vacuum decay beyond the quadratic approximation of the path integral. We derive a coupled system of equations for the bounce and the propagator, and we compute a semi-analytic…
In this paper we study the renormalization of the Schwinger-Dyson equations that arise in the auxiliary field formulation of the O(N) $\phi^4$ field theory. The auxiliary field formulation allows a simple interpretation of the large-N…
The main theme of the paper is the detailed discussion of the renormalization of the quantum field theory comprising two interacting scalar fields. The potential of the model is the fourth-order homogeneous polynomial of the fields,…
The concept of BPHZ renormalization is translated into configuration space. After deriving the counterpart for the regularizing Taylor subtraction, a new version of Zimmermann's convergence theorem by means of the forest formula is proved.…
We consider decoupling in the context of an effective quantum field theory of two scalar fields with well separated mass scales and a $Z_2\times Z_2$ symmetry. We first prove, using Wilson's exact renormalization group equation, that the…
In this paper we derive a hierarchy of integral equations from the 4PI effective action which have the form of Bethe-Salpeter equations. We show that the vertex functions defined by these equations can be used to truncate the exact…
The renormalization of the effective QCD-Hamiltonian theory for the quark-antiquark channel is performed in terms of a renormalized or fixed-point Hamiltonian that leads to subtracted dynamical equations. The fixed point-Hamiltonian brings…
Subdivergences constitute a major obstacle to the evaluation of Feynman integrals and an expression in terms of finite quantities can be a considerable advantage for both analytic and numeric calculations. We report on our implementation of…
In Causal Perturbation Theory the process of renormalization is precisely equivalent to the extension of time ordered distributions to coincident points. This is achieved by a modified Taylor subtraction on the corresponding test functions.…
We raise the issue whether gauge theories, that are not renormalizable in the usual power-counting sense, are nevertheless renormalizable in the modern sense that all divergences can be cancelled by renormalization of the infinite number of…
We present a procedure of differential renormalization at the one loop level which avoids introducing unnecessary renormalization constants and automatically preserves abelian gauge invariance. The amplitudes are expressed in terms of a…
We perform a detailed analysis of renormalization at one-loop order in the $\lambda\phi^4$ theory with Robin boundary condition (characterized by a constant $c$) on a single plate at $z=0$. For arbitrary $c\geq0$ the renormalized theory is…
We show that a new expansion which sums seagull and bubble graphs to all orders, can be applied to the O(N) linear sigma model at finite temperature. We prove that this expansion can be renormalised with the usual counterterms in a mass…
We provide Wilsonian proof for renormalizability of four-dimensional quantum field theories with ${\cal N}=1/2$ supersymmetry. We argue that the non-hermiticity inherent to these theories permits assigning noncanonical scaling dimension…
