abstract

We study the perturbative quantization of 2-dimensional massive scalar field theory with polynomial (or power series) potential on manifolds with boundary. We prove that it fits into the functorial quantum field theory framework of Atiyah-Segal. In particular, we prove that the perturbative partition function defined in terms of integrals over configuration spaces of points on the surface satisfies an Atiyah-Segal type gluing formula. Tadpoles (short loops) behave nontrivially under gluing and play a crucial role in the result.

Neumann scalar determinants on constant curvature disks

hep-th · 2025-07-07 · conditional · novelty 6.0

Neumann determinants of the massive Laplacian on constant curvature disks are expressed as convergent infinite series, with exact special-mass reductions for m^2 = -η/L^2 q(q+1).
