We have systematically constructed the general structure of the fermion self-energy and the effective quark propagator in presence of a nontrivial background like hot magnetised medium. This is applicable to both QED and QCD. The hard thermal loop approximation has been used for the heat bath. We have also examined transformation properties of the effective fermion propagator under some of the discrete symmetries of the system. Using the effective fermion propagator we have analysed the fermion dispersion spectra in a hot magnetised medium along with the spinor for each fermion mode obtained by solving the modified Dirac equation. The fermion spectra is found to reflect the discrete symmetries of the two-point functions. We note that for a chirally symmetric theory the degenerate left and right handed chiral modes in vacuum or in a heat bath get separated and become asymmetric in presence of magnetic field without disturbing the chiral invariance. The obtained general structure of the two-point functions is verified by computing the three-point function, which agrees with the existing results in one-loop order. Finally, we have computed explicitly the spectral representation of the two-point functions which would be very important to study the spectral properties of the hot magnetised medium corresponding to QED and QCD with background magnetic field.

The thesis contains studies of properties quark-gluon plasma, using some non-perturbative techniques. It contains a brief introduction of quark-gluon plasma (QGP) and discussion on various signatures along with a motivation for this thesis work. It p resents the basic mathematical tools and ingredients required for the thesis, i.e. basics of QCD, Imaginary and Real Time Formalism, Hard Thermal Loop perturbation theory (HTLpt), Gribov-Zwanziger (GZ) action, the Correlation Function along with the Spectral Function and Operator Product Expansion (OPE) and QCD in magnetized medium. OPE is used to compute the dilepton rate in intermediate mass range by incorporating the non-perturbative dynamics of QCD through the inclusion of non-vanishing quark and gluon condensates in combination with the Green functions in momentum space. Also the magnetic scale (g^2T) in the HTL perturbation theory, related to the confining properties of the QCD is taken into account using the GZ action through a mass parameter, which reflects a new space-like quark mode in the collective excitation. The impact of this new exciting mode on the DPR has been studied and its important consequences has been discussed. A hot magnetized medium introduces another scale in the system in addition to temperature. Electromagnetic spectral properties and DPR are studied completely analytically in presence of both strong and weak background magnetic fields at finite temperature. The Debye screening in a hot and magnetized medium has been studied which reveals some of the intriguing properties of the medium in presence of both strong and weak magnetic field. Also an important quantity that characterizes the QGP, namely quark number susceptibility has been investigated. Most of the non-perturbative results discussed in this thesis are compared with those of perturbative ones and lattice QCD.
Based on transversality condition of gauge boson self-energy we have systematically constructed the general structure of the gauge boson two-point functions using four linearly independent basis tensors in presence of a nontrivial background, i.e., h ot magnetized material medium. The hard thermal loop approximation has been used for the heat bath to compute various form factors associated with the gauge bosons two point functions both in strong and weak field approximation. We have also analyzed the dispersion of a gauge boson (e.g., gluon) using the effective propagator both in strong and weak magnetic field approximation. The formalism is also applicable to QED. The presence of only thermal background leads to a longitudinal (plasmon) mode and a two-fold degenerate transverse mode. In presence of a hot magnetized background medium the degeneracy of the two transverse modes is lifted and one gets three quasiparticle modes. In weak field approximation one gets two transverse modes and one plasmon mode. On the other hand, in strong field approximation also one gets the three modes in Lowest Landau Level. The general structure of two-point function may be useful for computing the thermo-magnetic correction of various quantities associated with a gauge boson.

The vector channel spectral function at zero spatial momentum is calculated at next-to-leading order in thermal QCD for any quark mass. It corresponds to the imaginary part of the massive quark contribution to the photon polarization tensor. The spec trum shows a well defined transport peak in contrast to both the heavy quark limit studied previously, where the low frequency domain is exponentially suppressed at this order and the naive massless case where it vanishes at leading order and diverges at next-to-leading order. From our general expressions, the massless limit can be taken and we show that no divergences occur if done carefully. Finally, we compare the massless limit to results from lattice simulations.
The one loop self energy of the neutral $rho$ meson is obtained for the effective $rhopipi$ and $rho NN$ interaction at finite temperature and density in the presence of a constant background magnetic field of arbitrary strength. In our approach, the eB-dependent vacuum part of the self energy is extracted by means of dimensional regularization where the ultraviolet divergences corresponding to the pure vacuum self energy manifest as the pole singularities of gamma as well as Hurwitz zeta functions. This improved regularization procedure consistently reproduces the expected results in the vanishing magnetic field limit and can be used quite generally in other self energy calculations dealing with arbitrary magnetic field strength. In presence of the external magnetic field, the general Lorentz structure for the in-medium vector boson self energy is derived which can also be implemented in case of the gauge bosons such as photons and gluons. It has been shown that with vanishing perpendicular momentum of the external particle, essentially two form factors are sufficient to describe the self energy completely. Consequently, two distinct modes are observed in the study of the effective mass, dispersion relations and the spectral function of $rho^0$ where one of the modes possesses two fold degeneracy. For large baryonic chemical potential, it is observed that the critical magnetic field required to block the $rho^0rightarrowpi^+pi^-$ decay channel increases significantly with temperature. However, in case of smaller values reaching down to vanishing chemical potential, the critical field follows the opposite trend.
We develop a method to obtain fermion spectral functions non-perturbatively in a non-Abelian gauge theory with high occupation numbers of gauge fields. After recovering the free field case, we extract the spectral function of fermions in a highly occ upied non-Abelian plasma close to its non-thermal fixed point, i.e., in a self-similar regime of the non-equilibrium dynamics. We find good agreement with hard loop perturbation theory for medium-induced masses, dispersion relations and quasiparticle residues. We also extract the full momentum dependence of the damping rate of the collective excitations.
