We study the bulk and finite-size critical behavior of the O$(n)$ symmetric $\phi^4$ theory with spatially anisotropic interactions of non-cubic symmetry in $d<4$ dimensions. In such systems of a given $(d,n)$ universality class, two-scale…
The implications of restricted conformal invariance under conformal transformations preserving a plane boundary are discussed for general dimensions $d$. Calculations of the universal function of a conformal invariant $\xi$ which appears in…
Semi-infinite $d$-dimensional systems with an $m$-axial bulk Lifshitz point are considered whose ($d-1$)-dimensional surface hyper-plane is oriented perpendicular to one of the $m$ modulation axes. An $n$-component $\phi^4$ field theory…
The infinite dimensional generalization of the quantum mechanics of extended objects, namely, the quantum field theory of extended objects is presented. The paradigm example studied in this paper is the Euclidean scalar field with a…
In this paper we discuss the effects of nontrivial boundary conditions or backgrounds, including non-perturbative ones, on the renormalization program for systems in two dimensions. Here we present an alternative renormalization procedure…
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…
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…
We consider systems with slab geometry of finite thickness L that undergo second order phase transitions in the bulk limit and belong to the universality class of O(n)-symmetric systems with short-range interactions. In these systems the…
The critical behavior of semi-infinite $d$-dimensional systems with $n$-component order parameter $\bm{\phi}$ and short-range interactions is investigated at an $m$-axial bulk Lifshitz point whose wave-vector instability is isotropic in an…
We present a non-perturbative study of the \lambda \phi^{4} model in a three dimensional Euclidean space, where the two spatial coordinates are non-commutative. Our results are obtained from numerical simulations of the lattice model, after…
We study the scaling limit of a model of a tethered crumpled D-dimensional random surface interacting through an exclusion condition with a fixed impurity in d-dimensional Euclidean space by the methods of Wilson's renormalization group. In…
In a previous work, we established perturbative renormalizability to all orders of the massive $\phi^4_4$-theory on a half-space also called the semi-infinite massive $\phi^4_4$-theory. Five counter-terms which are functions depending on…
We set up a bootstrap problem for renormalization. Working in the massless four-dimensional O$(N)$ model and the $\lambda \phi^4$ theory, we prove that unitarity leads to all-loop recursion relations between coefficients of scattering…
In the recent years, field theory on non-commutative (NC) spaces has attracted a lot of attention. Most literature on this subject deals with perturbation theory, although the latter runs into grave problems beyond one loop. Here we present…
We develop a basis--covariant one--loop renormalization framework for two interacting real scalars in $D=4-\epsilon$ with the most general two--derivative Lorentz--violating quadratic form, allowing anisotropic spatial gradients and…
The UV/IR mixing in the \lambda \phi^4 model on a non-commutative (NC) space leads to new predictions in perturbation theory, including Hartree-Fock type approximations. Among them there is a changed phase diagram and an unusual behavior of…
We perform a detailed analysis of renormalization at one-loop order in the $\lambda\phi^4$ theory with Robin boundary condition (characterized by a constant $c$) on a single plate at $z=0$. For arbitrary $c\geq0$ the renormalized theory is…
The critical behaviour of semi-infinite $d$-dimensional systems with short-range interactions and an O(n) invariant Hamiltonian is investigated at an $m$-axial Lifshitz point with an isotropic wave-vector instability in an $m$-dimensional…
Using the nonperturbative renormalization group, we study the existence of bound states in the symmetry-broken phase of the scalar $\phi^4$ theory in all dimensions between two and four and as a function of the temperature. The accurate…
We continue the study of model-independent constraints on the unitary Conformal Field Theories in 4-Dimensions, initiated in arXiv:0807.0004. Our main result is an improved upper bound on the dimension \Delta of the leading scalar operator…
