Journal ArticleDOI
A new perturbative approach to nonlinear problems
TL;DR: In this paper, a perturbative technique for quantum field theory consists of replacing nonlinear terms in the Lagrangian such as φ4 by (φ2)1+δ and then treating δ as a small parameter.
Journal ArticleDOI
Novel Perturbative Scheme in Quantum Field Theory
TL;DR: A novel perturbative technique for solving quantum field theory in the context of self-interacting scalar field theory, which believes that for any Green's function the radius of convergence of this series is finite and is, in fact, 1.
Journal ArticleDOI
Continuum regulation of the strong-coupling expansion for quantum field theory
TL;DR: In this article, the authors study two continuum methods of regulating the formal strong coupling expansion of the Green's functions, obtained by expanding the path integral in powers of the kinetic energy (inverse free propagator).
Journal ArticleDOI
Quantum roll: A study of the long-time behavior of the finite-element method.
TL;DR: Using the method of finite elements, the quantum behavior of a particle starting in an unstable equilibrium at the top of a potential hill and rolling down is investigated and the accuracy of the large-time approximations to based upon single finite elements of degree n is studied.
Journal ArticleDOI
Matrix methods in discrete-time quantum mechanics.
TL;DR: By introducing a matrix formulation it is possible to circumvent the implicit character of these equations and obtain explicit closed-form solutions for arbitrary matrix elements of any operator.
