We analyze renormalization and the high temperature expansion of the one-loop effective action of the space-time noncommutative \phi^4 theory by using the zeta function regularization in the imaginary time formalism (i.e., on S^1 x R^3).…
Explicit two-loop calculations in noncommutative $\phi^4_4$ theory are presented. It is shown that the model is two-loop renormalizable.
We construct a non-perturbative method to investigate the phase structure of the scalar theory at finite temperature. The derivative of the effective potential with respect to the mass square is expressed in terms of the full propagator.…
Scalar fields at finite temperature are considered in four dimensional ultrastatic curved spacetime. One loop nonlocal effective action at finite temperature is found up to the second order in curvature expansion. This action is explicitly…
A general discussion of the renormalization of the quantum theory of a scalar field as an effective field theory is presented. The renormalization group equations in a mass-independent renormalization scheme allow us to identify the…
The convergence properties of the resummed thermal perturbation series for the thermodynamic pressure are investigated by comparison with the exact results obtained in large-N phi^4 theory and possibilities for improvements are discussed.…
We compute the pressure of hot quantum electrodynamics from the two-loop truncation of the 2PI effective action. Since the 2PI resummation guarantees gauge-fixing independence only up to the order of the truncation, our result for the…
We present on shell-scheme for the 2PI formalism with a particular focus on the renormalized equations of motion. We first revisit the so-called Hartree approximation where we give the counterterms for both the broken and unbroken phase.…
The optimized linear $\delta$-expansion is applied to the $\lambda \phi^4$ theory at high temperature. Using the imaginary time formalism the thermal mass is evaluated perturbatively up to order $\delta^2$. A variational procedure…
Non-perturbative renormalisation of a general class of scalar field theories is performed at the Hartree level truncation of the 2PI effective action in the broken symmetry regime. Renormalised equations are explicitly constructed for the…
We derive the quantum effective action up to second order in gradients and up to two-loop order for an interacting scalar field theory. This expansion of the effective action is useful to study problems in cosmological settings where…
The 2PI effective action formalism for quantum fields out of equilibrium is set up in an expanding (Friedmann-Robertson-Walker) background. We write down and solve the evolution equations for a phi^4 model at NLO in a coupling expansion. We…
We develop a systematic method for solving the 3-loop $\Phi$-derivable approximation to the thermodynamics of the massless $\phi^4$ field theory. The method involves expanding sum-integrals in powers of $g^2$ and m/T, where g is the…
We prove through Monte Carlo analysis that the covariant euclidean scalar field theory, $\varphi^r_n$, where $r$ denotes the power of the interaction term and $n = s + 1$ where $s$ is the spatial dimension and $1$ adds imaginary time, such…
Effective critical exponents for the \lambda \phi^4 scalar field theory are calculated as a function of the renormalization group block size k_o^{-1} and inverse critical temperature \beta_c. Exact renormalization group equations are…
We apply the $\delta$-expansion perturbation scheme to the $\lambda \phi_{4}$ self-interacting scalar field theory in 3+1 D at finite temperature. In the $\delta$-expansion the interaction term is written as $\lambda (\phi^{2})^{1 +…
The renormalization group is used to improve the effective potential of massive ${\rm O}(N)$ symmetric $\phi^4$ theory. Explicit results are given at the two-loop level.
The optimized perturbation theory (OPT) at finite temperature recently developed by the present authors is reviewed by using O(N) phi^4 theory with spontaneous symmetry breaking. The method resums automatically higher loops (including the…
We discuss the formulation of "thermal renormalization group-equations" and their application to the finite temperature phase-transition of scalar O(N)-theories. Thermal renormalization group-equations allow for a computation of both the…
The finite-temperature renormalization group is formulated via the Wilson-Kadanoff blocking transformation. Momentum modes and the Matsubara frequencies are coupled by constraints from a smearing function which plays the role of an infrared…
