There is a matrix model corresponding to a scalar field theory called Grosse-Wulkenhaar model, which is renormalizable by adding a harmonic oscillator potential to scalar $\Phi^{4}$ theory on Moyal spaces. There are more unknowns in…
We analyze two types of hermitian matrix models with asymmetric solutions. One type breaks the symmetry explicitly with an asymmetric quartic potential. We give the phase diagram of this model with two different phase transitions between…
We compute the renormalized trajectory of $\phi^4_4$-theory by perturbation theory in a running coupling. We use an exact infinitesimal renormalization group. The expansion is put into a form which is manifestly independent of the scale…
We solve the equations of motion of a complex $\phi^4$ theory coupled to some given gauge field background. The solutions are given in both cylindrical and spherical coordinates and have finite energy.
Using an infinitesimal approach, this work addresses the renormalization problem to deal with the ultraviolet divergences arising in quantum field theory. Under the assumption that the action has already been renormalized to yield an…
The persistence of the hierarchy problem points to a violation of effective field theory expectations. A compelling possibility is that this results from a physical breakdown of EFT, which may arise from correlations between ultraviolet…
Based upon the intrinsic relation between the divergent lower point functions and the convergent higher point ones in the renormalizable quantum field theories, we propose a new method for regularization and renormalization in QFT. As an…
We examine several resummation methods for computing higher order corrections to the finite temperature effective potential, in the context of a scalar $\phi^4$ theory. We show by explicit calculation to four loops that dressing the…
We have recently claimed that the domain wall in the 3+1 dimensional $\phi^4$ double-well model can be constructed as a squeezed, coherent state and that at one loop it has a finite tension given general, but unspecified, renormalization…
We consider a family of $\kappa$-Poincar\'e invariant scalar field theories on 4-d $\kappa$-Minkowski space with quartic orientable interaction, that is for which $\phi$ and its conjugate $\phi^\dag$ alternate in the quartic interaction,…
In this article we calculate several divergent amplitudes in phi^4-theory on non-commutative space-time in the framework of Interaction Point Time Ordered Perturbation Theory (IPTOPT), continuing work done in hep-th/0209253. On the ground…
Worm methods to simulate the Ising model in the Aizenman random current representation including a low noise estimator for the connected four point function are extended to allow for antiperiodic boundary conditions. In this setup several…
A lattice simulation in the broken phase of four-dimensional (lambda Phi^4) theory in the Ising limit suggests that, in the continuum limit, the scalar condensate rescales by a factor different from the conventional wavefunction…
We consider a scalar $\phi^4$ theory on canonically deformed Euclidean space in 4 dimensions with an additional oscillator potential. This model is known to be renormalisable. An exterior gauge field is coupled in a gauge invariant manner…
We discuss the second quantization of scalar field theory on the q-deformed fuzzy sphere S^2_{q,N} for q \in \R, using a path-integral approach. We find quantum field theories which are manifestly covariant under U_q(su(2)), have a smooth…
We report on a comprehensive analysis of the renormalization of noncommutative \phi^4 scalar field theories on the Groenewold-Moyal (GM) plane. These scalar field theories are twisted Poincar\'e invariant. Our main results are that these…
The tadpole conjecture suggests that the complete stabilization of complex structure deformations in Type IIB and F-theory flux compactifications is severely obstructed by the tadpole bound on the fluxes. More precisely, it states that the…
We show that the matrix formulation of non-commutative field theories is equivalent, in the continuum, to a formulation in a mixed configuration-momentum space. In this formulation, the non-locality of the interactions, that leads to the…
We discuss the lambda phi**4 model in 2- and 3-dimensional non-commutative spaces. The mapping onto a Hermitian matrix model enables its non-perturbative investigation by Monte Carlo simulations. The numerical results reveal a phase where…
We consider a non-supersymmetric domain-wall version of $\mathcal{N} = 4$ SYM theory where five out of the six scalar fields have non-zero classical values on one side of a wall of codimension one. The classical fields have commutators…
