In earlier work, we have developed a nonequilibrium statistical field theory description of cosmic structure formation, dubbed Kinetic Field Theory (KFT), which is based on the Hamiltonian phase-space dynamics of classical particles and thus remains valid beyond shell-crossing. Here, we present an exact reformulation of the KFT framework that allows to resum an infinite subset of terms appearing in the original perturbative expansion of KFT. We develop the general formalism of this resummed KFT, including a diagrammatic language for the resummed perturbation theory, and compute the lowest-order results for the power spectra of the dark matter density contrast and momentum density. This allows us to derive analytically how the linear growth of the largest structures emerges from Newtonian particle dynamics alone, which, to our knowledge, is the first time this has been achieved.

Kinetic Field Theory (KFT) is a statistical field theory for an ensemble of point-like classical particles in or out of equilibrium. We review its application to cosmological structure formation. Beginning with the construction of the generating func
tional of the theory, we describe in detail how the theory needs to be adapted to reflect the expanding spatial background and the homogeneous and isotropic, correlated initial conditions for cosmic structures. Based on the generating functional, we develop three main approaches to non-linear, late-time cosmic structures, which rest either on the Taylor expansion of an interaction operator, suitable averaging procedures for the interaction term, or a resummation of perturbation terms. We show how an analytic, parameter-free equation for the non-linear cosmic power spectrum can be derived. We explain how the theory can be used to derive the density profile of gravitationally bound structures and use it to derive power spectra of cosmic velocity densities. We further clarify how KFT relates to the BBGKY hierarchy. We then proceed to apply kinetic field theory to fluids, introduce a reformulation of KFT in terms of macroscopic quantities which leads to a resummation scheme, and use this to describe mixtures of gas and dark matter. We discuss how KFT can be applied to study cosmic structure formation with modified theories of gravity. As an example for an application to a non-cosmological particle ensemble, we show results on the spatial correlation function of cold Rydberg atoms derived from KFT.
We show how standard Newtonian N-body simulations can be interpreted in terms of the weak-field limit of general relativity by employing the recently developed Newtonian motion gauge. Our framework allows the inclusion of radiation perturbations and
the non-linear evolution of matter. We show how to construct the weak-field metric by combining Newtonian simulations with results from Einstein-Boltzmann codes. We discuss observational effects on weak lensing and ray tracing, identifying important relativistic corrections.
We apply nonperturbative variational techniques to a relativistic scalar field theory in which heavy bosons (``nucleons) interact with light scalar mesons via a Yukawa coupling. Integrating out the meson field and neglecting the nucleon vacuum polari
zation one obtains an effective action in terms of the heavy particle coordinates which is nonlocal in the proper time. As in Feynmans polaron approach we approximate this action by a retarded quadratic action whose parameters are to be determined variationally on the pole of the two-point function. Several ansatze for the retardation function are studied and for the most general case we derive a system of coupled variational equations. An approximate analytic solution displays the instability of the system for coupling constants beyond a critical value.
We re-derive the equations of motion of dissipative relativistic fluid dynamics from kinetic theory. In contrast to the derivation of Israel and Stewart, which considered the second moment of the Boltzmann equation to obtain equations of motion for t
he dissipative currents, we directly use the latters definition. Although the equations of motion obtained via the two approaches are formally identical, the coefficients are different. We show that, for the one-dimensional scaling expansion, our method is in better agreement with the solution obtained from the Boltzmann equation.
We revisit the chiral kinetic equation from high density effective theory approach, finding a chiral kinetic equation differs from counterpart derived from field theory in high order terms in the $O(1/mu)$ expansion, but in agreement with the equatio
n derived in on-shell effective field theory upon identification of cutoff. By using reparametrization transformation properties of the effective theory, we show that the difference in kinetic equations from two approaches are in fact expected. It is simply due to different choices of degree of freedom by effective theory and field theory. We also show that they give equivalent description of the dynamics of chiral fermions.
