A Variational Perturbation Approach to One-Point Functions in QFT

Wen-Fa Lu

In this paper, we develop a variational perturbation (VP) scheme for calculating vacuum expectation values (VEVs) of local fields in quantum field theories. For a comparatively gen…

Gaussian Effective Potential and the Coleman's normal-ordering Prescription : the Functional Integral Formalism

Wen-Fa Lu, Chul Koo Kim

For a class of system, the potential of whose Bosonic Hamiltonian has a Fourier representation in the sense of tempered distributions, we calculate the Gaussian effective potential…
