We discuss the renormalizability of Phi-derivable approximations in scalar phi^4 theory in four dimensions. The formalism leads to self-consistent equations for the 2-point and the 4-point functions which are plagued by ultraviolet…
We consider the renormalisation properties of non-Hermitian Yukawa theories involving a pseudoscalar (axion) field at or near $4$ dimensions. The non-Hermiticity is \cPT-symmetric where $\mathcal P$ is a linear idempotent operator (such as…
We discuss renormalization in a toy model with one fermion field and one real scalar field phi, featuring a spontaneously broken discrete symmetry which forbids a fermion mass term and a phi^3 term in the Lagrangian. We employ a…
Within finite temperature field theory, we show that truncated non-perturbative self-consistent Dyson resummation schemes can be renormalized with local vacuum counterterms. For this the theory has to be renormalizable in the usual sense…
We explore the classical and quantum properties of a sterile scalar field coupled to $N$ copies of Dirac fermions in an external gravitational field. We find that the self-interaction scalar potential of a model that is consistent at the…

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,…

We extend the adiabatic regularization method for an expanding universe to include the Yukawa interaction between quantized Dirac fermions and a homogeneous background scalar field. We give explicit expressions for the renormalized…
We show that the so-called Phi-derivable approximations can be combined with the exact renormalization group to provide efficient non-perturbative approximation schemes. On the one hand, the Phi-derivable approximations allow for a simple…
Equivalence criteria are established for an effective Yukawa-type theory of composite fields representing two-particle fermion bound states with the original "microscopic" theory of interacting fermions based on the spectral decomposition…
Recently, non-perturbative approximate solutions were presented that go beyond the well-known mean-field resummation. In this work, these non-perturbative approximations are used to calculate finite temperature equilibrium properties for…
Non-perturbative renormalisation of a general class of scalar field theories is performed at the Hartree level truncation of the 2PI effective action in the broken symmetry regime. Renormalised equations are explicitly constructed for the…
Nonperturbative approximation schemes based on two-particle irreducible (2PI) effective actions provide an important means for our current understanding of (non-)equilibrium quantum field theory. A remarkable property is their…
