This technical note provides a high-level overview of the present state of basic field electron emission (FE) theory, as suitable for use in the context of technological applications of FE theory. At present there is much theoretical…
The renormalization conditions of inhomogeneous systems of a quantum field under an external potential are studied, for both equilibrium and nonequilibrium scenarios and based on Thermo Field Dynamics. Extending the concept of the on-shell…
Preliminary version of a contribution to the "Quantum Field Theory. Non-Perturbative QFT" topical area of "Modern Encyclopedia of Mathematical Physics" (SELECTA), eds. Aref'eva I, and Sternheimer D, Springer (2007). Consists of two parts -…
We review the status of the Standard Model theory of neutron beta decay. Particular emphasis is put on the recent developments in the electroweak radiative corrections. Given that some existing approaches give slightly different results, we…
An effective formalism for white noise analysis, conceptually equivalent to Wilsonian renormalization theory, is introduced. Space-time gets represented by a boolean lattice of coarse regions, energy scales become space-time partitions by…
We reassess the problem of renormalization in finite temperature field theory (FTFT). A new point of view elucidates the relation between the ultraviolet divergences for T=0 and $T \not= 0$ theories and makes clear the reason why the…
The renormalization of the two dimensional light-front quantized $\phi^{4}$ theory is discussed. The mass renormalization condition and the renormalized constraint equation are shown to contain all the information to describe the phase…
We theoretically study the electromagnetic interaction in Dirac systems with $N$ nodes by using the renormalization group, which is relevant to the quantum critical phenomena of topological phase transition ($N=1$) and Weyl semimetals…
The phase transitions of random-field q-state Potts models in d=3 dimensions are studied by renormalization-group theory by exact solution of a hierarchical lattice and, equivalently, approximate Migdal-Kadanoff solutions of a cubic…
Volume I of two. This document could be of interest to anyone who wants to have a comprehensive inside information about the research in nuclear physics from its early beginnings to later years. It describes highlights of my research work…
The paper contains materials of the discussion concerning phase transitions and critical phenomena which took place during the Workshop on modern problems of soft matter theory (Aug. 27 -- Aug. 31, 2000, Lviv, Ukraine).
The validity of the approximations done in the mean field description of the quasi-elastic excitation of medium-heavy nuclei is discussed. A test of the reliability of the plane wave Born approximation is presented. The uncertainty related…

In this short note we amplify our comments on the paper PRL 95,010405 (2005).
Some form of nonperturbative regularization is necessary if effective field theory treatments of the NN interaction are to yield finite answers. We discuss various regularization schemes used in the literature. Two of these methods involve…
We study models of strong first order `low' temperature electroweak phase transition. To achieve this we propose a class of Higgs effective potential models which preserve the known features of the present day massive phase. However, the…
