I present a sequence of non-perturbative approximate solutions for scalar $\phi^4$ theory for arbitrary interaction strength, which contains, but allows to systematically improve on, the familiar mean-field approximation. This sequence of…

We express the in-in functional determinant giving the one-loop effective potential for a scalar field propagating in a cosmological spacetime in terms of the mode functions specifying the vacuum of the theory and then apply adiabatic…

We consider the simplest example of a nonstationary quantum system which is quantum mechanical oscillator with varying frequency and $\lambda \phi^4$ self-interaction. We calculate loop corrections to the Keldysh, retarded/advanced…

We assess the performance of a recently proposed renormalized adiabatic local density approximation (rALDA) for \textit{ab initio} calculations of electronic correlation energies in solids and molecules. The method is an extension of the…

We introduce an iterative method to univocally determine the adiabatic expansion of the modes of Dirac fields in spatially homogeneous external backgrounds. We overcome the ambiguities found in previous studies and use this new procedure to…

A practical approach is presented which allows the use of a non-invariant regularization scheme for the computation of quantum corrections in perturbative quantum field theory. The theoretical control of algebraic renormalization over…

In these lectures we consider some topics of Quantum Field Theory in Curved Space. In the first one particle creation in curved space is studied from a mathematical point of view, especially, particle production at a given time using the so…

The renormalization group method is applied to the three-loop effective potential of the massive $\phi^4$ theory in the $\bar{\rm MS}$ scheme in order to obtain the next-next-next-to-leading logarithm resummation. For this, we exploit…

Adiabatic approximations are a powerful tool for simplifying nonlinear quantum dynamics, and are applicable whenever a system exhibits a hierarchy of time scales. Current interest in small nonlinear quantum systems, such as few-mode…

Using the effective potential, we study the one-loop renormalization of a massive self-interacting scalar field at finite temperature in flat manifolds with one or more compactified spatial dimensions. We prove that, owing to the…

We introduce a technique relying on the use of auxiliary fields in order to eliminate explicit field-derivatives that plague the high orders renormalization group treatment of shift-symmetric, derivative, theories. This technique simplifies…

As a first application of our renormalisation group approach to non-local matrix models [hep-th/0305066], we prove (super-)renormalisability of Euclidean two-dimensional noncommutative \phi^4-theory. It is widely believed that this model is…

The adiabatic approximation is a natural approach for the description of phenomena induced by low frequency laser radiation because the ratio of the laser frequency to the characteristic frequency of an atom or a molecule is a small…

Using functional renormalization methods, we study the one-loop renormalization group evolution of theories with four scalars, at second order in the derivative expansion, in which electroweak symmetry is nonlinearly realized. In this…

We study a just renormalizable tensorial group field theory of rank six with quartic melonic interactions and Abelian group U(1). We introduce the formalism of the intermediate field, which allows a precise characterization of the leading…

We review the method of stochastic quantization for a scalar field theory. We first give a brief survey for the case of self-interacting scalar fields, implementing the stochastic perturbation theory up to the one-loop level. The…

We introduce a novel method for the renormalization of the Hamiltonian operator in Quantum Field Theory in the spirit of the Wilson renormalization group. By a series of unitary transformations that successively decouples the high-frequency…

We develop a method for computing exact one-loop quantum corrections to the energies of static classical backgrounds in renormalizable quantum field theories. We use a continuum density of states formalism to construct a regularized Casimir…

While he derived the equation for the radiation force, Dirac (1938) mentioned a possibility to use different choices for the 4-momentum of an emitting electron. Particularly, the 4-momentum could be non-colinear to the electron 4-velocity.…

The main theme of the paper is the detailed discussion of the renormalization of the quantum field theory comprising two interacting scalar fields. The potential of the model is the fourth-order homogeneous polynomial of the fields,…
