Using a recently proposed group-theoretical approach, we explore novel gaugings of maximal supergravity in four dimensions with gauge group embeddings that can be generated by fluxes of IIB string theory. The corresponding potentials are…

Classical field theories coupled to stochastic noise provide an extremely powerful tool for modeling phenomena as diverse as turbulence, pattern-formation, and the structural development of the universe itself. In this Letter we sketch a…

We calculate the one-loop effective potential of a scalar field in a Robertson-Walker background with scalar metric perturbations. A complete set of orthonormal solutions of the perturbed equations is obtained by using the adiabatic…

We analize instanton generated superpotentials for three dimensional N=2 supersymmetric gauge theories obtained by compactifying on S^1 N=1 four dimensional theories. In the N_f=1 case, we find that the vacua in the decompactification limit…

We consider the one-loop effective potential at zero temperature in field theories with anisotropic space-time scaling, with critical exponent $z=3$, including scalar, fermion and gauge fields. The fermion determinant generates a symmetry…

We provide the dictionary between four-dimensional gauged supergravity and type II compactifications on $\mathbb{T}^6$ with metric and gauge fluxes in the absence of supersymmetry breaking sources, such as branes and orientifold planes.…

We study the one-loop effective potentials of the four-dimensional Lifshitz scalar field theory with the particular anisotropic scaling $z=2$, and show that the renormalization is possible without resort to the renormalization of the…

Perturbative spectra and related factorization properties of one-loop open string amplitudes in the presence of a constant external background B are analysed in detail. While the pattern of the closed string spectrum, obtained after a…

The two-loop Feynman diagram contribution to the four-graviton amplitude of eleven-dimensional supergravity compactified on a two-torus, T^2, is analyzed in detail. The Schwinger parameter integrations are re-expressed as integration over…

We derive a universal formula for the one-loop renormalization of the effective K\"ahler potential that applies to general supersymmetric effective field theories of chiral multiplets, with arbitrary interactions respecting N=1…

We describe free differential algebras for non-abelian one and two form gauge potentials in four dimensions deriving the integrability conditions for the corresponding curvatures. We show that a realization of these algebras occurs in…

We study local superspace contributions to low-energy effective action in general chiral three-dimensional superfield model. The effective Kahler and chiral potentials are computed in explicit form up to the two-loop order. In accordance…

Massive field theory at fixed dimension d<4 is combined with the minimal subtraction scheme to calculate the amplitude functions of thermodynamic quantities for the O(n) symmetric phi^4 model below T_c in two-loop order. Goldstone…

We obtain the two-loop effective potential for general renormalizable theories, using a generalized gauge-fixing scheme that includes as special cases the background-field $R_\xi$ gauges, the Fermi gauges, and the familiar Landau gauge, and…

We investigate compactifications with duality twists and their relation to orbifolds and compactifications with fluxes. Inequivalent compactifications are classified by conjugacy classes of the U-duality group and result in gauged…

The one-loop effective potential is a powerful tool in studying the electroweak symmetry breaking of supersymmetric theories, whose precise calculation may have important phenomenological consequences. In this work, we are correctly…

It is shown how to calculate simple vacuum diagrams in light-cone quantum field theory. As an application, I consider the one-loop effective potential of phi^4 theory. The standard result is recovered both with and without the inclusion of…

If background fields are soft on the scale set by mass of the particle involved, a reliable approximation to the field-theoretic one-loop effective action is obtained by a systematic large mass expansion involving higher-order Seeley-DeWitt…

Using the superfield formalism, we propose a non-local extension of the supersymmetric gauge theory coupled to massless chiral matter. Two different non-local models are considered. For these models, we explicitly calculate the one-loop…

We obtain using Schwinger's proper time approach the Casimir-Euler-Heisenberg effective action of fermion fluctuations for the case of an applied magnetic field. We implement here the compactification of one space dimension into a circle…
