Abstract:
We develop a perturbation theory for evaluating the boundary S-matrix in 2D quantum field theory. We apply this approach to calculate the one-loop boundary S-matrix for the elementary particle of the sine–Gordon model with a boundary interaction. Our perturbative result agrees with the exact expression of the S-matrix conjectured by Goshal; it also allows us to derive the perturbative relation between the parameter ϑ in the S-matrix and the free parameter M in the boundary action, in the particular case in which its other free parameter φ0 is zero.

The free energy is shown to decrease along Wilson renormalization group trajectories, in a dimension-independent fashion, for d&gt;2.

Abstract:
Recent developments of perturbation theory at finite temperature based on effective field theory methods are reviewed. These methods allow the contributions from the different scales to be separated and the perturbative series to be reorganized. The construction of the effective field theory is shown in detail for ϕ4 theory and QCD. It is applied to the evaluation of the free energy of QCD at order g5 and the calculation of the g6 term is outlined. Implications for the application of perturbative QCD to the quark–gluon plasma are also discussed.

Abstract:
It is pointed out that the nonrenormalizability of quantum Einstein gravity may be caused by the inadequacy of the conventional perturbative approach. It is more reasonable to reconsider the problem in the light of a newly proposed perturbative scheme, which is free of the ad hoc assumption on which the conventional perturbation theory is based. It is explicitly shown that there is a gravity-theory example which is nonrenormalizable in the usual sense but completely finite if the new perturbative scheme is applied.

We argue from both the quark language and the free field light-cone expansion in light-cone perturbation theory that the constraint of overall “energy” conservation in deep inelastic lepton-nucleon scattering yields a similar new scaling variable xp, which reduces to the Weizmann variable, the Bloom-Gilman variable and the Bjorken variable at some approximations. The xp rescaling is expected to be a good scaling variable, and hence gives strong power-law type corrections to the deviations of Bjorken scaling.

Soluble examples with similar behavior are compared, in particular the Lee model and the 3D δ function potential. The latter case is especially important, for it shows that triviality is a symptom that the interaction is too singular, and suggests a cure.

Abstract:
An approach for computing accurate redox potentials in enzymes is developed based on the free energy perturbation technique in a QM/MM framework. With an appropriate choice of the QM level and QM/MM coupling scheme, the intermolecular interaction between the redox center and the protein environment can be adequately described; the speed of QM/MM methods also allows a sufficient configurational sampling for the convergence of free energy derivatives. Following the implementation into the simulation package CHARMM, the method was tested with an application to the first reduction potential of FAD

Abstract:
Expressions for SO(4) invariant Euclidean QCD generating functionals are introduced which should produce nonvanishing gluon condensates. We consider first the loop expansion of the corresponding effectíve action searching for a description differing from the usual perturbation theory. At this level, we consider special free propagators which have off-diagonal long range order. The calculation of the polarization tensor leads to a gluon mass term which is proportional to the squared root of the finite value for &lt;G2&gt;. The summation of all the one-loop contributions to the energy having onl

Abstract:
An explicitly orbital-dependent correlation energy functional is proposed, which is to be used in combination with the orbital-dependent exchange energy functional in energy-band calculations. It bears a close resemblance to the second-order direct and exchange perturbation terms calculated with Kohn–Sham orbitals and Kohn–Sham energies except that one of the two Coulomb interactions entering each term is replaced by an effective interaction which contains information about long-, intermediate-, and short-range correlations beyond second-order perturbation theory. Such an effective interaction

Abstract:
We present a summary of perturbative results obtained in the framework of collective string field theory. We discuss computations of tree-level scattering amplitudes, loop corrections to tachyon self-energy, ground state energy and finite temperature free energy. A comparison with results obtained in different approaches is given. We also discuss the physical implications of our results.

Abstract:
We have developed the density functional theory (DFT) and density functional perturbation theory (DFPT) which are based both on the hybrid weighted-density approximation and on the higher-order weighted-density approximation, respectively, to study the structural and thermodynamic properties of polymer melts at interfaces. They were applied to predict the local density distributions, adsorption isotherms, surface excesses, and solvation forces of a freely jointed tangent hard-sphere chain in hard slit pores.

Abstract:
We study the existence of solutions of the string equations which are pole-free on the positive real axis and exhibit such a solution following the work of Boutroux. We further study, using perturbation theory, the flows among different models and we find that there is no flow between the k=2 and k=3 theories. Moreover, we develop a nonperturbative renormalization-group scheme to extract the scaling behavior of the partition function of the k=2 model under perturbations. The key idea is to reinterpret the recent formulation, as Virasoro constraints, of the string-loop equations as generalized

Abstract:
A derivation of ordinary QED perturbation theory is given in the Schrödinger picture. The path integral is restricted to fields in a finite time interval, ti ≤ t ≤ tf, with explicit boundary conditions given by vacuum state functionals at the initial and final times. The free photon vacuum functional is uniquely specified by the requirement of stationarity in time. For the free electron vacuum further conditions need to be imposed, e.g., the occupation of all negative energy states. The calculations are carried out using a discretized time interval of finite spacing dt, and exact results (to a

Abstract:
We compute the phase and the modulus of an energy- and pressure-free, composite, adjoint, and inert field in an SU(2) Yang-Mills theory at large temperatures. This field is physically relevant in describing part of the ground-state structure and the quasiparticle masses of excitations. The field possesses nontrivial -winding on the group manifold . Even at asymptotically high temperatures, where the theory reaches its Stefan-Boltzmann limit, the field , though strongly power suppressed, is conceptually relevant: its presence resolves the infrared problem of thermal perturbation theory.

Abstract:
The problem of the strong-coupling regime is considered in the scalar superrenormalizable field theory [Formula: see text]. By using the Gaussian transform, we have found an optimal representation within which the exact strong-coupling behavior of the free energy is already obtained in the leading-order approximation. Within this representation, the interaction becomes slower as the bare coupling constant grows, so the higher-order corrections can be systematically estimated by using a modified perturbation scheme. The next-to-leading terms give rise in insignificant corrections for finite cou
