In Ref. 3, we presented an asymptotic formula for the fermion-induced effective energy in 3+1 dimensions in the presence of a cylindrically symmetric inhomogeneous strong magnetic field. However, there are some points which were not clearly…
The derivative expansion of the effective action is a perturbative development in derivatives of the fields. The expansion breaks down when some of the derivatives are too large. We show how to sum exactly the first and second derivatives…
We present a continuum operator map that inverts the role of particles and antiparticles in three dimensional QED. This is accomplished by the attachment of specific holomorphic Wilson lines to Dirac fermions. We show that this nonlocal map…
We discuss two dimensional $QCD (N_c\to\infty)$ with fermions in the fundamental as well as adjoint representation. We find factorial growth $\sim (g^2N_c\pi)^{2k}\frac{(2k)!(-1)^{k-1}}{(2 \pi)^{2k}}$ in the coefficients of the large order…
A functional partial differential equation is set for the proper graphs generating functional of QED in external electromagnetic fields. This equation leads to the evolution of the proper graphs with the external field amplitude and the…
A general expression for the conductivity in the QED$_{2+1}$ with nonzero fermion density in the uniform magnetic field is derived. It is shown that the conductivity is entirely determined by the Chern-Simons coefficient:…
The derivative expansion of the effective action is considered in the model with two interacting real scalar fields in curved spacetime. Using the functional approach and local momentum representation, the coefficient of the derivative term…
The results of part I (hep-ph/9612284) are used to obtain full asymptotic expansions of Feynman diagrams renormalized within the MS-scheme in the regimes when some of the masses and external momenta are large with respect to the others. The…
Explicit exact formulas are presented, up to fourth order in a strict chiral covariant derivative expansion, for the normal parity component of the Euclidean effective action of even-dimensional Dirac fermions. The bosonic background fields…
We study the Heisenberg-Euler effective action in constant electromagnetic fields $\bar{F}$ for QED with $N$ charged particle flavors of the same mass and charge $e$ in the large $N$ limit characterized by sending $N\to\infty$ while keeping…
We address the issue of large-order expansions in strong-field QED. Our approach is based on the one-loop effective action encoded in the associated photon polarisation tensor. We concentrate on the simple case of crossed fields aiming at…
The perturbative evaluation of the effective action can be expanded in powers of derivatives of the external field. We apply the renormalization group equation to the term in the effective action that is second order in the derivatives of…
We present a new group-theoretical technique to calculate weak field expansions for some Feynman diagrams using invariant polynomials of the dihedral group. In particular we show results obtained for the first coefficients of the three loop…
The thermal averaged real-time propagator of a Dirac fermion in a static uniform magnetic field $B$ is derived. At non-zero chemical potential and temperature we find explicitly the effective action for the magnetic field, which is shown to…
It is known that the one-loop effective action of ${QED}_2$ is a quadratic in the field strength when the fermion mass is zero: all potential higher order contributions beyond second order vanish. For nonzero fermion mass it is shown that…
We analyse two new versions of \theta-expanded non-commutative quantum electrodynamics up to first order in \theta and first loop order. In the first version we expand the bosonic sector using the Seiberg-Witten map, leaving the fermions…
An interesting class of background field configurations in QED are the O(2)xO(3) symmetric fields. Those backgrounds have some instanton-like properties and yield a one-loop effective action that is highly nontrivial but amenable to…
Building upon the Covariant Derivative Expansion, we develop a method to compute effective actions that is able to capture non-perturbative effects induced by strong background fields. We demonstrate the method in scalar QED, by deriving…
It is argued that the derivative expansion is a suitable method to deal with finite temperature field theory, if it is restricted to spatial derivatives only. Using this method, a simple and direct calculation is presented for the…
A new approach to the problem of finding the asymptotical behaviour of large orders of semiclassical expansion is suggested. Asymptotics of high orders not only for eigenvalues, but also for eigenfunctions, are constructed. Thus, one can…
