Complex Bosonic Many-body Models: Overview of the Small Field Parabolic Flow

This paper is a contribution to a program to see symmetry breaking in a weakly interacting many Boson system on a three dimensional lattice at low temperature. It provides an overview of our analysis of the "small field" approximation to the "parabolic flow" which exhibits the formation of a "Mexican hat" potential well.Comment: 36 page

Power Series Representations for Bosonic Effective Actions

We develop a power series representation and estimates for an effective action of the form $$\ln\frac{\int e^{f(\phi,\psi)}d\mu(\phi)}{\int e^{f(\phi,0)}d\mu(\phi)}$$ Here, f(φ,ψ) is an analytic function of the real fields φ(x),ψ(x) indexed by x in a finite set X, and d μ(φ) is a compactly supported product measure. Such effective actions occur in the small field region for a renormalization group analysis. The customary way to analyze them is a cluster expansion, possibly preceded by a decoupling expansion. Using methods similar to a polymer expansion, we estimate the power series of the effective action without introducing an artificial decomposition of the underlying space into boxe
