Perturbative Evaluation of the Effective Action for a Self-Interacting Conformal Field on a Manifold with Boundary
Abstract
Description
In a series of three projects a new technique which allows for higher-loop renormalisation on a manifold with boundary has been developed and used in order to assess the effects of the boundary on the dynamical behaviour of the theory. Commencing with a conceptual approach to the theoretical underpinnings of the, underlying, spherical formulation of Euclidean Quantum Field Theory this overview presents an outline of the stated technique's conceptual development, mathematical formalism and physical significance.
