# Random Walks, Critical Phenomena, and Triviality in Quantum Field Theory

Written in English

Subjects:
• Quantum theory,
• Thermodynamics,
• Physics

The subject of this book is equilibrium statistical mechanics, in particular the theory of critical phenomena, and quantum field theory. The central theme is the use of random-walk representations as a tool to derive correlation inequalities. The consequences of these inequalities for critical-exponent theory and the triviality question in quantum field theory are expounded in detail. The book contains some previously unpublished results. It addresses both the researcher and the graduate student in modern statistical mechanics and quantum field theory.

In this part, in the rst three chapters I write about scalar elds, elds with spin, and non-abelian elds. The following chapters are dedicated to quantum electrodynamics and quantum chromodynamics, followed by the renormalization theory. The second part is dedicated to Topological Field Theories.

Field theory has also been applied to a variety of phenomena in condensed matter physics, including superconductivity, superfluidity and the quantum Hall effect. The concept of the renormalization group has given us a new perspective on field theory in general and on critical phenomena in : Springer-Verlag New York.

Abstract: We review the use of an exact renormalization group equation in quantum field theory and statistical physics. It describes the dependence of the free energy on an infrared cutoff for the quantum or thermal fluctuations.

Non-perturbative solutions follow from approximations to the general form of the coarse-grained free energy or effective average action.

However, our understanding of the quantum world has grown enormously since Bohr’s time. Indeed, there are important differences between the quantum mechanics developed in the early twentieth century and the quantum field theory I will talk about here.
