These contexts include but are not limited to providing indications for phase transitions and the nature of elementary excitations of strong and electroweak matter. A precondition for obtaining high-precision predictions is the application of some advanced functional techniques to the effective models, where the sensitivity of the results to the accurate choice of the input parameters is under control and the insensitivity to the actual choice of ultraviolet regulators is ensured. The credibility of such attempts ultimately requires a clean renormalization procedure and an error estimation due to a necessary truncation in the resummation procedure. In this concise primer we discuss systematically and in sufficient technical depth the features of a number of approximate methods, as applied to various effective models of chiral symmetry breaking in strong interactions and the BEH-mechanism of symmetry breaking in the electroweak theory. After introducing the basics of the functional integral formulation of quantum field theories and the derivation of different variants of the equations which determine the n-point functions, the text elaborates on the formulation of the optimized perturbation theory and the large-N expansion, as applied to the solution of these underlying equations in vacuum. The optimisation aspects of the 2PI approximation is discussed. Each of them is presented as a specific reorganisation of the weak coupling perturbation theory. The dimensional reduction of high temperature field theories is discussed from the same viewpoint. The renormalization program is described for each approach in detail and particular attention is paid to the appropriate interpretation of the notion of renormalization in the presence of the Landau singularity. Finally, results which emerge from the application of these techniques to the thermodynamics of strong and electroweak interactions are reviewed in detail. 000752759 588__ $$aOnline resource; title from PDF title page (SpringerLink, viewed December 22, 2015). 000752759 650_0 $$aParticles (Nuclear physics) 000752759 650_0 $$aRenormalization (Physics) 000752759 650_0 $$aPhysics. 000752759 650_0 $$aMathematical physics. 000752759 650_0 $$aQuantum field theory. 000752759 650_0 $$aString models. 000752759 7001_ $$aPatkós, A.,$$eauthor. 000752759 7760_ $$w(GyWOH)har155023669 000752759 77608 $$iPrint version:$$z9783319226194$$z3319226193$$w(OCoLC)930079393 000752759 830_0 $$aLecture notes in physics ;$$vvolume 912. 000752759 852__ $$bebk 000752759 85640 $$3SpringerLink$$uhttps://univsouthin.idm.oclc.org/login?url=http://link.springer.com/10.1007/978-3-319-22620-0$$zOnline Access$$91397441.1 000752759 909CO $$ooai:library.usi.edu:752759$$pGLOBAL_SET 000752759 980__ $$aEBOOK 000752759 980__ $$aBIB 000752759 982__ $$aEbook 000752759 983__ $$aOnline 000752759 994__ $$a92$$bISE
