We respond to Tarrach's criticisms (hep-th/9511034) of our work on lambda Phi^4 theory. Tarrach does not discuss the same renormalization procedure that we do. He also relies on results from perturbation theory that are not valid. There is…
Massless $\phi^{4}$-theory is investigated in zero and four space-time dimensions. Path-integral linearisation of the $\phi ^{4}$-interaction defines an effective theory, which is investigated in a loop-expansion around the mean field. In…
The real meaning of `triviality' of (lambda Phi^4)_4 theory is outlined. Assuming `triviality' leads to an effective potential that is just the classical potential plus the zero-point energy of the free-field fluctuations. This V_{eff}…
We define a finite size renormalization scheme for $\phi^4$ theory which in the thermodynamic limit reduces to the standard scheme used in the broken phase. We use it to re-investigate the question of triviality for the four dimensional…
It is pointed out that models with condensates have nontrivial renormalization group flow on the tree level. The infinitesimal form of the tree level renormalization group equation is obtained and solved numerically for the phi4 model in…
We study the noncommutative $\phi^4$ theory with spontaneously broken global O(2) symmetry in 4 dimensions. We demonstrate the renormalizability at one loop. This does not require any choice of ordering of the fields in the interaction…
The solution of the O$(N) \phi^4$ scalar field theory in the broken phase is given in the framework of light cone quantization and a 1/N expansion. It involves the successive building of operator solutions to the equation of motion and…
The two ways of resumming the efffective action for the massless test particles in inhomogeneous external field at zero and finite temperature providing the infrared finite answer are discussed. The case of the massive test particles having…
The Gaussian-time-dependent variational equations are used to explored the physics of $(\phi^4)_{3+1}$ field theory. We have investigated the static solutions and discussed the conditions of renormalization. Using these results and…
We consider the Renormalization-Group coupled equations for the effective potential V(\phi) and the field strength Z(\phi) in the spontaneously broken phase as a function of the infrared cutoff momentum k. In the k \to 0 limit, the…
We develop the idea that renormalization, decoupling of heavy particle effects from low energy physics and the construction of effective field theories are intimately linked to the momentum space entanglement of disparate modes of an…
The flow equations of the Functional Renormalization Group are applied to the O(N)-symmetric scalar theory, for N=1 and N=4, in four Euclidean dimensions, d=4, to determine the effective potential and the renormalization function of the…
We show that the direction of renormalization in effective field theory is constrained by fundamental principles in the infrared$\unicode{x2014}$unitarity, analyticity, and Lorentz invariance. Our theorem, in the spirit of the $a$-theorem…
We study a (1+1)-dimensional $\lambda\phi^4$ model with a light-cone zero mode and constant external source to describe spontaneous symmetry breaking. In the broken phase, we find degenerate vacua and discuss their stability based on…
We derive several results concerning non-perturbative renormalization in the spherical field formalism. Using a small set of local counterterms, we are able to remove all ultraviolet divergences in a manner such that the renormalized theory…
The infrared effects for light minimally coupled scalar fields with quartic self-interaction in de Sitter space is investigated using the 2PI effective action formalism. This formalism partially resums infinite series of loop diagrams, and…
The autonomous renormalization of the O(N)-symmetric scalar theory is based on an infinite re-scaling of constant fields, whereas finite-momentum modes remain finite. The natural framework for a detailed analysis of this method is a system…
A redesigned starting point for covariant \phi^4_n, n\ge 4, models is suggested that takes the form of an alternative lattice action and which may have the virtue of leading to a nontrivial quantum field theory in the continuum limit. The…
The effective potential for the order parameter $\phi ^{\dagger } \phi$ is investigated in massless $\phi ^{4}$-theory in the presence of magnetic fields at finite temperature. It is found that the first order nature of the phase transition…
It has been demonstrated that the effective potential V(\phi) in a massless O(N) \lambda \phi^4_4 model is determined completely by the renormalization group functions provided the renormalization condition \frac{d^4V}{d…
