We analyse quantum properties of ${\cal N}=2$ and ${\cal N}=4$ supersymmetric gauge theories formulated in terms of ${\cal N}=1$ superfields and investigate the conditions imposed on a renormalization prescription under which the…
Given an analytic equivalence relation, we tend to wonder whether it is Borel. When it is non Borel, there is always the hope it will be Borel on a "large" set -- nonmeager or of positive measure. That has led Kanovei, Sabok and Zapletal to…
The process of renormalization to eliminate divergences arising in quantum field theory is not uniquely defined; one can always perform a finite renormalization, rendering finite perturbative results ambiguous. The consequences of making…
The perturbative $\beta$-function is known exactly in a number of supersymmetric theories and in the 't Hooft renormalization scheme in the $\phi_4^4$ model. It is shown how this allows one to compute the effective action exactly for…
The exact mass gap of the O(N) Gross-Neveu model is known, for arbitrary $N$, from non-perturbative methods. However, a "naive" perturbative expansion of the pole mass exhibits an infinite set of infrared renormalons at order 1/N, formally…
Suppose a regularised functional integral depends holomorphically on a parameter that receives only a finite renormalization. Can one expect the correlation functions to retain the analyticity in the parameter after removal of the…
The individual terms of the series representing the Riemann zeta function are examined geometrically from their accumulated plot in the complex plane. Symmetry is identified and determined mathematically for comparison with more traditional…
The (-\beta)-integers are natural generalisations of the \beta-integers, and thus of the integers, for negative real bases. They can be described by infinite words which are fixed points of anti-morphisms. We show that they are not…
Given an algebroid plane curve $f=0$ over an algebraically closed field of characteristic $p\geq 0$ we consider the Milnor number $\mu(f)$, the delta invariant $\delta(f)$ and the number $r(f)$ of its irreducible components. Put $\bar…
Consider the Bergman kernel $K^B(z)$ of the domain $\ellip = \{z \in \Comp^n ; \sum_{j=1}^n |z_j|^{2m_j}<1 \}$, where $m=(m_1,\ldots,m_n) \in \Natl^n$ and $m_n \neq 1$. Let $z^0 \in \partial \ellip$ be any weakly pseudoconvex point, $k \in…
In this paper we continue the study of perturbative renormalizations in an $\mathcal{N}=(0,2)$ supersymmetric model. Previously we analyzed one-loop graphs in the heterotically deformed CP$(N-1)$ models. Now we extend the analysis of the…
Using a simple solvable model, i.e., Higgs--Yukawa system with an infinite number of flavors, we explicitly demonstrate how a dimensional continuation of the $\beta$ function in two dimensional MS scheme {\it fails\/} to reproduce the…
The present essay aims at investigating whether and how far an algebraic analysis of the Zeta Function and of the Riemann Hypothesis can be carried out. Of course the well-established properties of the Zeta Function, explored in depth in…
Using the renormalization group techniques it was previously shown that the perturbative effective potential in the $\mathcal{O}(N)$ symmetric $\phi^4$ theory, massless scalar electrodynamics as well as in the conformal limit of the…
In this paper, we first show that a union of upper-level sets associated to fibrewise Lelong numbers of plurisubharmonic functions is in general a pluripolar subset. Then we obtain analyticity theorems for a union of sub-level sets…
Previously developed Pade-related method of resummation for QCD observables, which achieves exact renormalization-scale-invariance, is extended so that the scheme-invariance is obtained as well. The dependence on the leading scheme…
We introduce a renormalization procedure which allows us to study in a unified and concise way different properties of the irrational rotations on the unit circle $\beta \mapsto \set{\alpha+\beta}$, $\alpha \in \R\setminus \Q$. In…
Many observables in quantum field theories are involved non-analytic functions of the parameters of the theory. However, it is expected that they are not arbitrarily wild, but rather have only a finite amount of geometric complexity. This…
The properties of several functions are employed to investigate the zeros of the Riemann zeta function $\zeta(a+bi)$ $(0<a<1, b\neq 0)$. If the zeros of the zeta function have not the form $\frac{1}{2}+ib$ where $i=\sqrt{-1}$, we derive a…
It has been previously shown that calculation of renormalization group (RG) functions of the scalar \phi^4 theory reduces to the analysis of thermodynamic properties of the Ising model. Using high-temperature expansions for the latter, RG…
