We construct the strong-coupling series in 4d simplicial quantum gravity up to volume 38. It is used to calculate estimates for the string susceptibility exponent gamma for various modifications of the theory. It provides a very efficient…
We analyze numerically a two-dimensional $\lambda\phi^4$ theory showing that in the limit of a strong coupling $\lambda\to\infty$ just the homogeneous solutions for time evolution are relevant in agreement with the duality principle in…
Asymptotic expansions of series $\sum_{k=0}^\infty \epsilon^k(k+a)^\gamma e^{-(k+a)^\alpha x}$ and $\sum_{k=0}^\infty \epsilon^k(k+a)^\gamma / (x(k+a)^\alpha+1)^\mu}$ in powers of $x$ as $x\to+0$ are found, where $\epsilon=1$ or…
The expansion of Kummer's hypergeometric function as a series of incomplete Gamma functions is discussed, for real values of the parameters and of the variable. The error performed approximating the Kummer function with a finite sum of…
We present general prescriptions for the asymptotic expansion of massive multi-loop Feynman integrals near threshold. As in the case of previously known prescriptions for various limits of momenta and masses, the terms of the threshold…
The well-known algorithm for summing of divergent series is based on the Borel transformation in combination with the conformal mapping (Le Guillou and Zinn-Justin, 1977). Modification of this algorithm allows to determine a strong coupling…
The exact expression for the phase-dependent linear conductance of a weakly damped superconducting quantum point contact is obtained. The calculation is performed by summing up the complete perturbative series in the coupling between the…
Some of the basic concepts regarding asymptotic series are reviewed. A heuristic proof is given that the divergent QCD perturbation series is asymptotic. By treating it as an asymptotic expansion we show that it makes sense to keep only the…
We study quantum mechanical systems with a discrete spectrum. We show that the asymptotic series associated to certain paths of steepest-descent (Lefschetz thimbles) are Borel resummable to the full result. Using a geometrical approach…
We elaborate on the relation between perturbative and power-like corrections to short-distance sensitive QCD observables. We confront theoretical expectations with explicit perturbative calculations existing in literature. As is expected,…
The fits of 0.4 Ca(NO_3)_2 0.6 K(NO_3) (CKN) by schematic mode-coupling models [V. Krakoviack and C. Alba-Simionesco, J. Chem. Phys. 117, 2161-2171 (2002)] are analyzed by asymptotic expansions. The validity of both the power-law and the…
We find convergent double series expansions for Legendre's third incomplete elliptic integral valid in overlapping subdomains of the unit square. Truncated expansions provide asymptotic approximations in the neighbourhood of the logarithmic…
We study a special class of four-point correlation functions of infinitely heavy half-BPS operators in planar N=4 SYM which admit factorization into a product of two octagon form factors. We demonstrate that these functions satisfy a system…
We construct a closed system of equations describing the quark--anti-quark potential at any coupling in planar N=4 supersymmetric Yang-Mills theory. It is based on the Quantum Spectral Curve method supplemented with a novel type of…
We show how to construct path integrals for quantum mechanical systems where the space of configurations is a general non-compact symmetric space. Associated with this path integral is a perturbation theory which respects the global…
Finite 't Hooft coupling corrections to multiple physical observables in strongly coupled $N=4$ supersymmetric Yang-Mills plasma are examined, in an attempt to assess the stability of the expansion in inverse powers of the 't Hooft coupling…
It is well known that quantum-mechanical perturbation theory often give rise to divergent series that require proper resummation. Here I discuss simple ways in which these divergences can be avoided in the first place. Using the elementary…
A new formalism is introduced to treat problems in quantum field theory, using coherent functional expansions rather than path integrals. The basic results and identities of this approach are developed. In the case of a Bose gas with…
For the Cos(2x)-Potential the coefficients of the weak- and strong coupling perturbation series of the ground state energy are constructed recursively. They match the well-known expansion coefficients of the Mathieu equation's…
Amplitudes $A_n$ in $d$-dimensional scalar field theory are generated, to all orders in the coupling constant and at $n$-point. The amplitudes are expressed as a series in the mass $m$ and coupling $\lambda$. The inputs are the classical…
