A Generalized Parameter Imbedding Method
Abstract
Description
The parameter imbedding method for the Fredholm equation converts it into an initial value problem in its parameter $λ$. We establish the method for general operator equations of the form $[I + \hat{f}(λ)]ψ= ϕ$. It is particularly useful for studying spontaneous symmetry breaking problems, such as contained in the nonlinear Schwinger-Dyson equation.
