The zero four-momentum and equal mass limits are taken for the bubble diagram of scalar fields. It is seen that RTF and ITF are in complete agreement. However contributions from this diagram to both retarded and time-ordered functions do…
The massive scalar field with $\lambda\varphi^4$ interaction placed in $(3+1)$ dimensional box is considered. The sizes of the box are $V\times \beta$ $(V=L^3$ is the volume, $T=1/\beta$ is the temperature). The free energy is evaluated up…
We study the so-called `` sunset diagram'', which is one of two-loop self-energy diagrams, for scalar field theories at finite temperature. For this purpose, we first find the complete expression of the bubble diagram, the one-loop…
Massless scalar electrodynamics is studied at high temperature and zero chemical potential. I derive the free energy to order $\lambda^2$, $\lambda e^2$ and $e^4$ by effective field theory methods. The first step consists of the…
We calculate the vacuum (Casimir) energy for a scalar field with $\phi^4$ self-interaction in (1+1) dimensions non perturbatively, i.e., in all orders of the self-interaction. We consider massive and massless fields in a finite box with…
We compute the ground state energy of a massive scalar field in the background of a cylindrical shell whose potential is given by a delta function. The zero point energy is expressed in terms of the Jost function of the related scattering…
The renormalization of effective potentials for the noncommutative scalar field theory at high temperature are investigated to the two-loop approximation. The Feynman diagrams in evaluating the effective potential may be classified into two…
Several powerful techniques for evaluating massless scalar Feynman diagrams are developed, viz: the solution of recurrence relations to evaluate diagrams with arbitrary numbers of loops in $n=4-2\omega$ dimensions; the discovery and use of…
We consider a general situation where a charged massive scalar field $\phi(x)$ at finite temperature interacts with a magnetic flux cosmic string. We determine a general expression for the Euclidean thermal Green's function of the massive…
I describe a method to calculate a class of three-loop selfenergy diagrams for arbitrary internal masses and external momentum. This method combines analytical results and numerical integration, and is suitable for implementation in a…
The basic thermodynamic quantities for a non-interacting scalar field in a periodic potential composed of either a one-dimensional chain of Dirac $\delta$-$\delta^\prime$ functions or a specific potential with extended compact support are…
The beta function of the vacuum energy density is computed at the four-loop level in massive O(N) symmetric phi^4 theory. Dimensional regularization is used in conjunction with the MSbar scheme and all calculations are in momentum space in…
We study the phase diagram of the scalar field theory on the fuzzy sphere described as a particular multitrace matrix model. We consider perturbative and nonperturbative terms in the kinetic term effective action and describe consequences…
The scalar two-loop self-energy master diagram is studied in the case of arbitrary masses. Analytical results in terms of Lauricella- and Appell-functions are presented for the imaginary part. By using the dispersion relation a…
We use thermodynamic perturbation theory to calculate the free energies and resulting phase diagrams of binary systems of spherical colloidal particles and interacting polymer coils in good solvent within an effective one-component…
One and two loop self-energies are worked out explicitly for a heavy scalar field interacting weakly with a light self-interacting scalar field at finite temperature. The ring/daisy diagrams and a set of necklace diagrams can be summed…
We study symmetry restoration at finite temperature in the theory of a charged scalar field interacting with a constant, external magnetic field. We compute the finite temperature effective potential including the contribution from ring…
The beta function of the vacuum energy density is analytically computed at the five-loop level in O(N)-symmetric phi^4 theory, using dimensional regularization in conjunction with the MSbar scheme. The result for the case of a cubic…
The complete form of the high-temperature expansion of the one-loop contribution to the free energy of a scalar field on a stationary gravitational background is derived. The explicit expressions for the divergent and finite parts of the…
We obtain finite parts (as well as $\epsilon$-pole parts) of massive three-loop vacuum diagrams with three-point and/or four-point interaction vertices by reducing them to tetrahedron diagrams with both massive and massless lines, whose…
