Following Feynman's successful treatment of the polaron problem we apply the same variational principle to quenched QED in the worldline formulation. New features arise from the description of fermions by Grassmann trajectories, the…
The adaptive perturbation chooses a non-standard decomposition. The Hamiltonian becomes a sum of solvable and perturbation parts. We calculate the spectrum using the adaptive perturbation method at the leading-order to compare to numerical…
Perturbation expansions appear to be divergent series in many physically interesting situations, including in quantum field theories like quantum electrodynamics (QED) and quantum chromodynamics (QCD), where the perturbative coefficients…
We consider fourth order singularly perturbed eigenvalue problems in one-dimension and the approximation of their solution by the $h$ version of the Finite Element Method (FEM). In particular, we use piecewise Hermite polynomials of degree…
The perturbative series used to extract $\alpha_s(M_\tau)$ from the $\tau$ hadronic width exhibits slow convergence. Asymptotic Pade-approximant and Pade summation techniques provide an estimate of these unknown higher-order effects,…
Using standard mathematical methods for asymptotic series and the large-$\beta_0$ approximation, we define a Minimum Distance between the Fixed-Order perturbative series and the Contour-Improved perturbative series in the strong coupling…
We provide a renormalization procedure for Phi-derivable approximations in theories coupling different types of fields. We illustrate our approach on a scalar phi^4 theory coupled to fermions via a Yukawa-like interaction. The…
We develop new perturbation techniques for conducting convergence analysis of various first-order algorithms for a class of nonsmooth optimization problems. We consider the iteration scheme of an algorithm to construct a perturbed…
We consider a one-dimensional singularly perturbed 4th order problem with the additional feature of a shift term. An expansion into a smooth term, boundary layers and an inner layer yields a formal solution decomposition, and together with…
The soft breaking of gauge or other symmetries is the typical Quantum Field Theory phenomenon. In many cases one can apply the St$\ddot{\rm u}$ckelberg procedure, which means introducing some additional field or fields and restore the gauge…
We develop a semiclassical framework to determine scaling dimensions of neutral composite operators in scalar conformal field theories. For the critical Ising $\lambda\phi^4$ theory in $d=4-\epsilon$, we obtain the full spectrum of…
High orders in perturbation theory can be calculated by the Lipatov method. For most field theories, the Lipatov asymptotics has the functional form c a^N \Gamma(N+b) (N is the order of perturbation theory); relative corrections to this…
Lie group theory states that knowledge of a $m$-parameters solvable group of symmetries of a system of ordinary differential equations allows to reduce by $m$ the number of equations. We apply this principle by finding some \emph{affine…
We consider the O(N)-symmetric phi4 theory in two and three dimensions and determine the nonperturbative mass renormalization needed to obtain the phi4 continuum theory. The required nonperturbative information is obtained by resumming…
In this work we explore the fidelity of numerical approximations to the analytic spectra of hyperbolic partial differential equation systems with variable coefficients. We are particularly interested in the ability of discrete methods to…
The method of large spin perturbation theory allows to analyse conformal field theories (CFT) by turning the crossing equations into an algebraic problem. We apply this method to a generic CFT with weakly broken higher spin (HS) symmetry,…
The convergence of multiple Fourier series of functions of bounded partial $% \Lambda$-variation is investigated. The sufficient and necessary conditions on the sequence $\Lambda=\{\lambda_n\}$ are found for the convergence of multiple…
Pad'e approximants are used to improve the convergence behavior of perturbative results in massless scalar and gauge field theories at finite temperature.
We present a method to sum Borel- and Gevrey-summable asymptotic series by matching the series to be summed with a linear combination of asymptotic series of known functions that themselves are scaled versions of a single, appropriate, but…
We study a linearly transformed particle method for the aggregation equation with smooth or singular interaction forces. For the smooth interaction forces, we provide convergence estimates in $L^1$ and $L^\infty$ norms depending on the…
