#paperOfTheDay is "Comparison between large-order estimates and perturbation series in a scalar field theory with Gaussian propagator" from 1978.
The perturbation series for small coupling in #quantumFieldTheory is usually divergent (because the theory with negative coupling describes different #physics and is not "smoothly" connected with the case of positive coupling). To obtain finite physical predictions for the positive coupling case, a #resummation is needed. In the 1970s and 1980s, the computational techniques were for the first time sufficient to reach, say, order 4 in perturbation series computed with #FeynmanDiagram s, and the question arose how to actually do the resummation in practice.
The present paper studies a model quantum field theory, where the propagator is exp(-p^2). This is not physically accurate, but it allows to compute perturbation series to very high order (order 8 here) because the #FeynmanIntegral s are easier. Secondly, one can carry out an #instanton calculation to determine the leading large-order growth. This allows to study whether or not the series coefficients match the expected growth rate, and how to use various different methods of resummation. In particular, the instanton analysis predicts the location and algebraic exponent for the leading singularity in the Borel plane, and this can be used as an additional input: Either, compute the Borel transform directly with a shifted-gamma function to account for the singularity, or make an ansatz of the type (known singularity)x(Pade approximant) for the Borel transformed function. The numerical data shows that this gives substantially higher accuracy for the resummation. https://journals.aps.org/prd/abstract/10.1103/PhysRevD.17.2144 -
#paperOfTheDay is "The Diagrammar of Quantum Magnusian" from 2026.
The Magnusian is, morally, the logarithm of the S-matrix in #quantumFieldTheory . It has a perturbative expansion similarly to #FeynmanDiagrams , but these are not exactly the same diagrams, and they come with different combinatorial factors. The Magnus expansion has long been well understood for the case of differential equations, but the application to full quantum field theory is relatively new and so far had been rather ad-hoc, by expanding the corresponding series and explicitly matching terms. The present paper provides a systematic description of which diagrams, and with which combinatorial factors, appear in the Magnus expansion in QFT. Even for a scalar QFT, this is more complicated than ordinary Feynman diagrams, e.g. because the Magnus diagrams have directed edges (representing retarded propagators). https://arxiv.org/abs/2605.25473 -
