Renormalizable $\phi^{\star 4}_4$ models on Moyal space have been obtained by modifying the commutative propagator. But these models have a divergent "naive" commutative limit. We explain here how to obtain a coherent such commutative limit…

Let G be a Lie group equipped with a set of left invariant vector fields. These vector fields generate a function \xi on Wiener space into G via the stochastic version of Cartan's rolling map. It is shown here that, for any smooth function…

It is shown that the correct mathematical implementation of symmetry in the geometric formulation of classical field theory leads naturally beyond the concept of Lie groups and their actions on manifolds, out into the realm of Lie group…

We investigate the theory of affine group schemes over a symmetric tensor category, with particular attention to the tangent space at the identity. We show that this carries the structure of a restricted Lie algebra, and can be viewed as…

These are lecture notes for an introductory course on noncommutative field and gauge theory. We begin by reviewing quantum mechanics as the prototypical noncommutative theory, as well as the geometrical language of standard gauge theory.…

A class of effective field theories for moduli or collective coordinates on solitons of generic shapes is constructed. As an illustration, we consider effective field theories living on solitons in the O(4) non-linear sigma model with…

Poisson sigma models represent an interesting use of Poisson manifolds for the construction of a classical field theory. Their definition in the language of fibre bundles is shown and the corresponding field equations are derived using a…

Let $G$ be a reductive group over a local field $F$ and let $\rho:{}^LG \to \mathrm{GL}_{V_{\rho}}(\mathbb{C})$ be a representation of its $L$-group satisfying suitable assumptions. Braverman, Kazhdan and Ng\^o conjectured that one has a…

We study field theories on spaces with additional compact noncommutative dimensions. As an example, we study \phi^3 on R^{1,3}\times T^{2}_\theta using perturbation theory. The infrared divergences in the noncompact theory give rise to…

The critical behaviour of a non-local scalar field theory is studied. This theory has a non-local kinetic term which involves a real power 1-2\alpha of the Laplacian. The interaction term is the usual local \phi^{4} interaction. The lowest…

Let $(M,g)$ be a smooth Riemannian manifold, $K$ a compact Lie group and $p:P\to M$ a principal $K$-bundle over $M$ endowed with a connection $A$. Fixing a bi invariant inner product on Lie algebra $\mathfrak{k}$ of $K$, the connection $A$…

We describe the full group of isometries of each left invariant Riemannian metric on the simply connected unimodular nilpotent or solvable $(R)$-type Lie groups of dimension four.

We study the noncommutative \phi^4_4-quantum field theory at the self-duality point. This model is renormalisable to all orders as shown in earlier work of us and does not have a Landau ghost problem. Using the Ward identity of Disertori,…

We prove through path integral Monte Carlo computer experiments that the affine quantization of the $\varphi_4^4$ scaled Euclidean covariant relativistic scalar field theory is a valid quantum field theory with a well defined continuum…

We have constructed noncommutative phi^4 field theory on kappa-Minkowski spacetime. Quantum properties via 2-point functions were analized, and effect of birefringence for the massive scalar field has been found.

We develop techniques for classifying the nonnegatively curved left-invariant metrics on a compact Lie group G. We prove rigidity theorems for general G and a partial classification for G=SO(4). Our approach is to reduce the general…

We give examples of (i) a simple theory with a formula (with parameters) which does not fork over the empty set but has mu measure 0 for every automorphism invariant Keisler measure mu, and (ii) a definable group G in a simple theory such…

We have extended our method of grouping of Feynman diagrams (GFD theory) to study the transverse (G_t) and longitudinal (G_l) Greens functions in phi^4 model below the critical point (T<T_c) in presence of an infinitesimal external field.…

We describe a novel duality symmetry of Phi(4)-theory defined on noncommutative Euclidean space and with noncommuting momentum coordinates. This duality acts on the fields by Fourier transformation and scaling. It is an extension, to…

We derive a curvature-variation formula for a path of left-invariant metrics on a compact Lie group, beginning at a bi-invariant metric. We prove rigidity theorems for paths which remain nonnegatively curved, and we make progress towards a…
