    Convolution of n-dimensional Tempered Ultradistributions and Field Theory

    Full text link
    In this work, a general definition of convolution between two arbitrary Tempered Ultradistributions is given. When one of the Tempered Ultradistributions is rapidly decreasing this definition coincides with the definition of J. Sebastiao e Silva. In the four-dimensional case, when the Tempered Ultradistributions are even in the variables k0k^0 and ρ\rho (see Section 5) we obtain an expression for the convolution, which is more suitable for practical applications. The product of two arbitrary even (in the variables x0x^0 and rr) four dimensional distributions of exponential type is defined via the convolution of its corresponding Fourier Transforms. With this definition of convolution, we treat the problem of singular products of Green Functions in Quantum Field Theory. (For Renormalizable as well as for Nonrenormalizable Theories). Several examples of convolution of two Tempered Ultradistributions are given. In particular we calculate the convolution of two massless Wheeeler's propagators and the convolution of two complex mass Wheeler's propagators.Comment: 28 page

    Convolution of Lorentz Invariant Ultradistributions and Field Theory

    Full text link
    In this work, a general definition of convolution between two arbitrary four dimensional Lorentz invariant (fdLi) Tempered Ultradistributions is given, in both: Minkowskian and Euclidean Space (Spherically symmetric tempered ultradistributions). The product of two arbitrary fdLi distributions of exponential type is defined via the convolution of its corresponding Fourier Transforms. Several examples of convolution of two fdLi Tempered Ultradistributions are given. In particular we calculate exactly the convolution of two Feynman's massless propagators. An expression for the Fourier Transform of a Lorentz invariant Tempered Ultradistribution in terms of modified Bessel distributions is obtained in this work (Generalization of Bochner's formula to Minkowskian space). At the same time, and in a previous step used for the deduction of the convolution formula, we obtain the generalization to the Minkowskian space, of the dimensional regularization of the perturbation theory of Green Functions in the Euclidean configuration space given in ref.[12]. As an example we evaluate the convolution of two n-dimensional complex-mass Wheeler's propagators.Comment: LaTeX, 52 pages, no figure

    Possible Divergences in Tsallis' Thermostatistics

    Full text link
    Trying to compute the nonextensive q-partition function for the Harmonic Oscillator in more than two dimensions, one encounters that it diverges, which poses a serious threat to the whole of Tsallis' thermostatistics. Appeal to the so called q-Laplace Transform, where the q-exponential function plays the role of the ordinary exponential, is seen to save the day.Comment: Text has change

    Classical and \textcolor{blue}{Quantum} Field-Theoretical approach to the non-linear q-Klein-Gordon Equation

    \color{blue}{In the wake of efforts made in [EPL {\bf 97}, 41001 (2012)] and [J. Math. Phys. {\bf 54}, 103302 (2913)], we extend them here by developing the conventional Lagrangian treatment of a classical field theory (FT) to the q-Klein-Gordon equation advanced in [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 106}, 140601 (2011)] and [J. Math. Phys. {\bf 54}, 103302 (2913)], and the quantum theory corresponding to q=32q=\frac {3} {2}. This makes it possible to generate a putative conjecture regarding black matter. Our theory reduces to the usual FT for q1q\rightarrow 1.}Comment: Title has changed. Text has change
