We calculate the explicit expression of the effective potential in a $\lambda\phi^4$ theory at finite temperature in a static universe for arbitrary spacetime dimensions (2\leq D < 5). To study the combined effects of the temperature and…

We study cutoff and lattice effects in the O(n) symmetric $\phi^4$ theory for a $d$-dimensional cubic geometry of size $L$ with periodic boundary conditions. In the large-N limit above $T_c$, we show that $\phi^4$ field theory at finite…

In theories with spontaneous symmetry breaking, the loop expansion of the effective potential is awkward. In such theories, the exact effective potential $V(\phi_c,T)$ is real and convex (as a function of the classical field $\phi_c$), but…

We investigate the possibility of using the 4 dimensional $O(4)$ symmetric $\phi^4$ model as an effective theory for the sigma-pion system. We carry out lattice Monte Carlo simulations to establish the triviality bound in the case of…

We compute the effective potential for $\phi^4$ theory with a squeezed coherent state type of construct for the ground state. The method essentially consists in optimising the basis at zero and finite temperatures. The gap equation becomes…

The strong evidence for the `triviality' of (lambda Phi^4)_4 theory is not incompatible with spontaneous symmetry breaking. Indeed, for a `trivial' theory the effective potential should be given exactly by the classical potential plus the…

We compute numerically the effective potential for the $(\lambda \Phi^4)_4$ theory on the lattice. Three different methods were used to determine the critical bare mass for the chosen bare coupling value. Two different methods for obtaining…

The loop-expansion of the effective potential in the $O(N)$-symmetric $\phi^4$-model contains generically two types of large logarithms. To resum those systematically a new minimal two-scale subtraction scheme $\tMS$ is introduced in an…

We give the large N limit of the effective potential for the O(N) linear sigma model in four dimensions in terms of the Lambert W function. The effective potential is fully consistent with the renormalization group, and it admits an…

We present a lattice computation of the effective potential for O(2)-invariant $(\lambda\Phi^4)_4$ theory in the region of bare parameters corresponding to a classically scale-invariant theory. As expected from ``triviality'' and as in the…

In this note we discuss the phase space of the O(2N) vector model in the presence of a quadratic and a quartic interaction by writing the large-N effective potential using large charge methods in dimensions 2<D<4 and 4<D<6. Based on a…

A cutoff version of the $\lambda \phi^4$ O(N) model is considered to leading order in 1/N with particular attention to the effective potential, which is surprisingly rich in structure. With suitable restriction on a background classical…

The three-loop effective potential of the massless O(N) $\phi^4$ theory is calculated analytically using techniques of dimensional regularization. We see a complete agreement between our result and Jackiw's result obtained only up to…

Classical $\phi^4$ theory in weak and strong thermal gradients is studied on the lattice in (1+1) dimensions. Classical $\phi^4$ theory in weak and strong thermal gradients is studied on the lattice in (1+1) dimensions. The steady state…

We present a perturbative calculation of finite-size effects near $T_c$ of the $\phi^4$ lattice model in a $d$-dimensional cubic geometry of size $L$ with periodic boundary conditions for $d > 4$. The structural differences between the…

An alternative model to the trivial $\phi^4$-theory of the standard model of weak interactions is suggested, which embodies the Higgs-mechanism, but is free of the conceptual problems of standard $\phi ^4$-theory. We propose a N-component,…

We present a self-consistent calculation of the finite temperature effective potential for $\lambda \Phi^4$ theory in four dimensions using a composite operator effective action. We find that in a spontaneously broken theory not only the…

We study the O(N) linear sigma model in 1+1 dimensions. We use the 2PI formalism of Cornwall, Jackiw and Tomboulis in order to evaluate the effective potential at finite temperature. At next-to-leading order in a 1/N expansion one has to…

We analyze universal and nonuniversal finite-size effects of lattice systems in a $L^d$ geometry above the upper critical dimension d = 4 within the O(n) symmetric $\phi^4$ lattice theory. On the basis of exact results for $n \to\infty$ and…

In theories with spontaneous symmetry breaking, the conventional effective potential possesses a defective loop expansion. For such theories, the exact effective potential $V(\phi_c,T)$ is real and convex, but its perturbative series is…
