The gauge invariant method for calculation of the effective action of the local composite fields in QFT is proposed. The effective action of the local composite fields in QED is studied up to 2-loop level. The graph rules for the local…
We begin with a brief overview of lattice calculations using chiral effective field theory and some recent applications. We then describe several methods for computing scattering on the lattice. After that we focus on the main goal,…
We compute the effective action of QED at one loop order for an electric field which points in the $\hat{z}$ direction and depends arbitrarily upon the light cone time coordinate, $x^+ = (x^0 + x^3)/\sqrt{2}$. This calculation generalizes…
The partition function of the finite Ising lattice with Brascamp-Kunz boundary conditions is calculated exactly in the absence of an external magnetic field and for an external field i\pi/2.
We propose a method which allows the generalization of the Landau lattice gauge-fixing procedure to generic covariant gauges. We report preliminary numerical results showing how the procedure works for $SU(2)$ and $SU(3)$. We also report…
We describe and test a nonperturbatively improved single-plaquette lattice action for 4-d SU(2) and SU(3) pure gauge theory, which suppresses large fluctuations of the plaquette, without requiring the naive continuum limit for smooth…
We analyze the chiral Schwinger model on an infinite lattice using the continuum definition of the fermion determinant and a linear interpolation of the lattice gauge fields. For non-compact and Wilson formulation of the gauge field action…
We consider the computations of the action ground state for a rotating nonlinear Schr\"odinger equation. It reads as a minimization of the action functional under the Nehari constraint. In the focusing case, we identify an equivalent…
We present some aspects of high precision calculations in the context of Lattice Quantum Field Theory. This work is a collection of three studies done during my Ph.D. period. First we present how to use the reweighting technique to…
A lattice derivative is defined as a discrete Fourier transform of momentum on a finite lattice. Species doublers are removed with anti-periodic boundary conditions. U(1) chiral transformation is modified to reproduce chiral anomaly. Chiral…
The effective action of a Higgs theory should be gauge-invariant. However, the quantum and/or thermal contributions to the effective potential seem to be gauge-dependent, posing a problem for its physical interpretation. In this paper, we…
We propose a Gribov-Zwanziger type action for the Landau-DeWitt gauge that preserves, for any gauge group, the invariance under background gauge transformations. At zero temperature, and to one-loop accuracy, the model can be related to the…
We analyze SU(2) gauge theory in a constant chromomagnetic field in three dimensions. Our analysis instead of supporting the existence of a non-trivial minimum in the effective potential, corroborates the evidence of the unstable modes on…
We discuss the functional Schroedinger picture for fermions in external fields for both stationary and time-dependent problems. We give formal results for the ground state and the solution of the time-dependent Schroedinger equation for QED…
In this talk the gauge symmetry for Wilsonian flows in pure Yang-Mills theories is discussed. The background field formalism is used for the construction of a gauge invariant effective action. The symmetries of the effective action under…
We start from a low-energy effective field theory for interacting fermions on the lattice and expand in the hopping parameter to derive the nearest-neighbor interactions for a lattice gas model. In this model the renormalization of…
The Schr\"odinger equation is solved for the wave function of an electron moving in a superposition of external constant and uniform electric and magnetic fields at an arbitrary angle between the field directions. The changing of the…
We use the behavior of the photon-photon scattering for photon energies $\omega$ less than the electron mass, $m_e$, to examine the implications of treating the Euler-Heisenberg Lagrangian as an effective field theory. Specifically, we…
This thesis examines low-energy effective actions of supersymmetric quantum field theories. These actions contain information about the low-energy field content and dynamics of quantum field theories and are essential for understanding…
We extend our prescription for the construction of a covariant and background-independent effective action for scalar quantum field theories to the case where momentum modes below a certain scale are suppressed by the presence of an…
