An Improved Mean Field Approximation on the Worldsheet for Planar phi^3 Theory
Korkut Bardakci, Charles B. Thorn
We present an improved version of our earlier work on summing the planar graphs in phi^3 field theory. The present treatment is also based on our world sheet formalism and the mean…
BT Worldsheet for Supersymmetric Gauge Theories
Skuli Gudmundsson, Charles B. Thorn, Tuan A. Tran
We extend the Bardakci-Thorn (BT) worldsheet formalism to supersymmetric non-abelian gauge theory. Our method covers the cases of N =1,2,4 extended supersymmetry. This task require…
A Mean Field Approximation to the Worldsheet Model of Planar phi^3 Field Theory
Korkut Bardakci, Charles B. Thorn
We develop an approximation scheme for our worldsheet model of the sum of planar diagrams based on mean field theory. At finite coupling the mean field equations show a weak coupli…
Liouville Perturbation Theory
Charles B. Thorn
A comparison is made between proposals for the exact three point function in Liouville quantum field theory and the nonperturbative weak coupling expansion developed long ago by Br…
One Loop Calculations in Gauge Theories Regulated on an - Lattice
Skuli Gudmundsson, Charles B. Thorn
In earlier work, the planar diagrams of gauge theory have been regulated on the light-cone by a scheme involving both discrete and . The transverse coordina…
A Worldsheet Description of Planar Yang-Mills Theory
Charles B. Thorn
We extend previous work by developing a worldsheet description of non-abelian gauge theory (Yang-Mills). This task requires the introduction of Grassmann variables on the world she…
