Generalized Gaussian Effective Potential: Low Dimensional Scalar Fields
arXiv:hep-th/9405173 · doi:10.1016/0370-2693(94)90373-5
Abstract
We study a generalization of the Gaussian effective potential for self-interacting scalar fields in one and two spatial dimensions. We compute the two-loop corrections and discuss the renormalization of the generalized Gaussian effective potential.
