Two and four-loop -functions of rank 4 renormalizable tensor field theories
A recent rank 4 tensor field model generating 4D simplicial manifolds has
been proved to be renormalizable at all orders of perturbation theory
[arXiv:1111.4997 [hep-th]]. The model is built out of
(), () interactions and an anomalous
term (). The -functions of this model are evaluated at two
and four loops. We find that the model is asymptotically free in the UV for
both the main interactions whereas it is safe in the
sector. The remaining anomalous term turns out to possess a
Landau ghost.Comment: 31 pages, 31 figures; improved versio
EPRL/FK Group Field Theory
The purpose of this short note is to clarify the Group Field Theory vertex
and propagators corresponding to the EPRL/FK spin foam models and to detail the
subtraction of leading divergences of the model.Comment: 20 pages, 2 figure
The 1/N expansion of colored tensor models in arbitrary dimension
In this paper we extend the 1/N expansion introduced in [1] to group field
theories in arbitrary dimension and prove that only graphs corresponding to
spheres S^D contribute to the leading order in the large N limit.Comment: 4 pages, 3 figure
One-loop functions of a translation-invariant renormalizable noncommutative scalar model
Recently, a new type of renormalizable scalar model on
the Moyal space was proved to be perturbatively renormalizable. It is
translation-invariant and introduces in the action a term. We
calculate here the and functions at one-loop level for this
model. The coupling constant function is proved to have the
same behaviour as the one of the model on the commutative
. The function of the new parameter is also
calculated. Some interpretation of these results are done.Comment: 13 pages, 3 figure
Two and Three Loops Beta Function of Non Commutative Theory
The simplest non commutative renormalizable field theory, the
model on four dimensional Moyal space with harmonic potential is asymptotically
safe at one loop, as shown by H. Grosse and R. Wulkenhaar. We extend this
result up to three loops. If this remains true at any loop, it should allow a
full non perturbative construction of this model.Comment: 24 pages, 7 figure
Exorcizing the Landau Ghost in Non Commutative Quantum Field Theory
We show that the simplest non commutative renormalizable field theory, the
model on four dimensional Moyal space with harmonic potential is
asymptotically safe to all orders in perturbation theor
Revisiting random tensor models at large N via the Schwinger-Dyson equations
The Schwinger-Dyson Equations (SDEs) of matrix models are known to form
(half) a Virasoro algebra and have become a standard tool to solve matrix
models. The algebra generated by SDEs in tensor models (for random tensors in a
suitable ensemble) is a specific generalization of the Virasoro algebra and it
is important to show that these new symmetries determine the physical
solutions. We prove this result for random tensors at large N. Compared to
matrix models, tensor models have more than a single invariant at each order in
the tensor entries and the SDEs make them proliferate. However, the specific
combinatorics of the dominant observables allows to restrict to linear SDEs and
we show that they determine a unique physical perturbative solution. This gives
a new proof that tensor models are Gaussian at large N, with the covariance
being the full 2-point function.Comment: 17 pages, many figure
Parametric Representation of Noncommutative Field Theory
In this paper we investigate the Schwinger parametric representation for the
Feynman amplitudes of the recently discovered renormalizable quantum
field theory on the Moyal non commutative space. This
representation involves new {\it hyperbolic} polynomials which are the
non-commutative analogs of the usual "Kirchoff" or "Symanzik" polynomials of
commutative field theory, but contain richer topological information.Comment: 31 pages,10 figure
Topological Graph Polynomials in Colored Group Field Theory
In this paper we analyze the open Feynman graphs of the Colored Group Field
Theory introduced in [arXiv:0907.2582]. We define the boundary graph
\cG_{\partial} of an open graph \cG and prove it is a cellular complex.
Using this structure we generalize the topological (Bollobas-Riordan) Tutte
polynomials associated to (ribbon) graphs to topological polynomials adapted to
Colored Group Field Theory graphs in arbitrary dimension
The 1/N expansion of colored tensor models
In this paper we perform the 1/N expansion of the colored three dimensional
Boulatov tensor model. As in matrix models, we obtain a systematic topological
expansion, with more and more complicated topologies suppressed by higher and
higher powers of N. We compute the first orders of the expansion and prove that
only graphs corresponding to three spheres S^3 contribute to the leading order
in the large N limit.Comment: typos corrected, references update
