Masslesslike minimal subtraction for massive scalar field theory


الملخص بالإنكليزية

We introduce the simplest minimal subtraction method for massive $lambda phi^{4}$ field theory with $O(N)$ internal symmetry, which resembles the same method applied to massless fields by using two steps. First, the utilization of the partial-$p$ operation in every diagram of the two-point vertex part in order to separate it into a sum of squared mass and external momentum, respectively, with different coefficients. Then, the loop integral which is the coefficient of the quadratic mass can be solved entirely in terms of the mass, no longer depending upon the external momentum, using the {it parametric dissociation transform}. It consists in the choice of a certain set of fixed values of Feynman parameters replaced inside the remaining loop integral after solving the internal subdiagrams. We check the results in the diagrammatic computation of critical exponents at least up to two-loop order using a flat metric with Euclidean signature.
