Anomalous dimensions of composite operators in scalar field theories

  • Published:
Journal of Mathematical Sciences Aims and scope Submit manuscript

The problem of calculation of one-loop anomalous dimensions of composite operators can be reformulated as a spectral problem for the Hamiltonian of an N-particle quantum-mechanical system with pairwise interaction. We give a brief review of the corresponding technique using as examples the scalar field theories φ3 and φ4.As an application we calculate the exact anomalous dimensions for operators of a certain type. Bibliography: 27 titles.
