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 present a non-perturbative study of the \lambda \phi^{4} model in a three dimensional Euclidean space, where the two spatial coordinates are non-commutative. Our results are obtained from numerical simulations of the lattice model, after…
We construct a non-perturbative method to investigate the phase structure of the scalar theory at finite temperature. The derivative of the effective potential with respect to the mass square is expressed in terms of the full propagator.…
We apply a sum rule for the forward light-by-light scattering process within the context of the $\phi^4$ quantum field theory. As a consequence of the sum rule a stringent causality criterion is presented and the resulting constraints are…
We extend the study of the two-dimensional euclidean $\phi^4$ theory initiated in ref. [1] to the $\mathbb Z_2$ broken phase. In particular, we compute in perturbation theory up to N$^4$LO in the quartic coupling the vacuum energy, the…
Explicit divergences and counterterms do not appear in the differential renormalization method, but they are concealed in the neglected surface terms in the formal partial integration procedure used. A systematic real space cutoff procedure…
We investigate numerically different techniques to extract scattering amplitudes from the Euclidean Lattice {\phi}4 theory with two fields, having different masses. We present an exploratory study of the recently proposed method by Bruno…
In this paper, we prove some foundational results on the deformation theory of E-infinity ring spectra.
In this paper, we give a rigorous proof of the renormalizability of the massive $\phi_4^4$ theory on a half-space, using the renormalization group flow equations. We find that five counter-terms are needed to make the theory finite, namely…
The optimized linear $\delta$-expansion is applied to the $\lambda \phi^4$ theory at high temperature. Using the imaginary time formalism the thermal mass is evaluated perturbatively up to order $\delta^2$. A variational procedure…
The mass spectra of the $\phi\phi$ and $J/\psi\phi$ states in the decay $B^0_s\to J/\psi\phi\phi$ recently observed by LHCb are calculated in the model which takes into account the $J^P=0^+,0^-,2^+$ intermediate resonances $R_1$, $R_2$ in…
We study the perturbation of bound states embedded in the continuous spectrum which are unstable by the Fermi Golden Rule. The approach to resonance theory based on spectral deformation is extended to a more general class of quantum systems…
The real meaning of `triviality' of (lambda Phi^4)_4 theory is outlined. Assuming `triviality' leads to an effective potential that is just the classical potential plus the zero-point energy of the free-field fluctuations. This V_{eff}…
The flow equations of the renormalization group allow to analyse the perturbative $n$-point functions of renormalizable quantum filed theories. Rigorous bounds implying renormalizability permit to control large momentum behaviour, infrared…
A redesigned starting point for covariant \phi^4_n, n\ge 4, models is suggested that takes the form of an alternative lattice action and which may have the virtue of leading to a nontrivial quantum field theory in the continuum limit. The…
In the present note a spectral theorem for normal definitizable linear operators on Krein spaces is derived by developing a functional calculus $\phi \mapsto \phi(N)$ which is the proper analogue of $\phi \mapsto \int \phi \, dE$ in the…
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…
According to resummed perturbation theory, certain scalar theories have a global symmetry, which is restored in the vacuum but is broken at high temperatures. Recently, this phenomenon has been studied with 4d finite temperature lattice…
The renormalization of a gapless Phi-derivable Hartree--Fock approximation to the O(N)-symmetric lambda*phi^4 theory is considered in the spontaneously broken phase. This kind of approach was proposed by three of us in a previous paper in…
There are classical theorems of analysis which, given certain conditions on a perturbation, assert stability of the essential and absolutely continuous components of the spectrum of a self-adjoint operator. Whereas the singular component is…
