Scalar Field Theory with a Non-Standard Potential
We study the phase structure of a 4D complex scalar field theory with a potential V (Φ) = | Λ 3 Φ −ΛΦ | 2 at zero and at finite temperature. The model is analyzed by mean-field and Monte Carlo methods. At zero temperature the theory falls in the universality class of the 4D Ising model when varying Λ. The situation is less clear-cut for variations w.r.t. Λ at large temperatures and variations w...
متن کاملScalar - field cosmologies with an arbitrary potential
We study the late time evolution of flat and negatively curved FRW models with a perfect fluid matter source and a scalar field having an arbitrary non-negative potential function V (φ). We prove using a dynamical systems approach four general results for a large class of non-negative potentials which show that almost always the universe ever expands. In particular, for potentials having a loca...
متن کاملUV - finite scalar field theory with unitarity
In this paper we show how to define the UV completion of a scalar field theory such that it is both UV-finite and perturbatively unitary. In the UV completed theory, the propagator is an infinite sum of ordinary propagators. To eliminate the UV divergences, we choose the coefficients and masses in the propagator to satisfy certain algebraic relations, and define the infinite sums involved in Fe...
متن کاملBrans-Dicke cosmology with a scalar field potential
– Three solutions of the Brans-Dicke theory with a self-interacting quartic potential and perfect fluid distribution are presented for a spatially flat FRW geometry. The physical behavior is consistent with the recent cosmological scenario favored by supernova type-Ia observations, indicating an accelerated expansion of the Universe. Introduction. – Recent observations of type-Ia supernovae wit...
متن کاملQualitative Analysis of a Scalar-tensor Theory with Exponential Potential
A qualitative analysis of a scalar-tensor cosmological model, with an exponential potential for the scalar field, is performed. The phase diagram for the flat case is constructed. It is shown that solutions with an initial and final inflationary behaviour appear. The conditions for which the scenario favored by supernova type Ia observations becomes an attractor in the space of the solutions ar...
