2 Schwinger-Keldysh Formalism #2 Initial statistical operator ρ i at t = t i Time evolution of expectation values of observables: O = Tr[ρ(t)O(t)] Feynman rules Difference to vacuum: Contour-ordered Green s functions t i t f t = In equilibrium: ρ = exp( βh)/z with Z = Tr exp( βh) Imaginary part of the time contour Im t t i t f Re t = iβ Fields periodic (bosons) or anti-periodic (fermions)

6 Properties of the Φ-Functional #6 Why using the Φ-functional? Series of diagrams for Φ truncated at a certain loop order Linearly realized Noether symmetries are respected Conserving Approximations (mod. anomalies) In equilibrium iγ[ϕ, G] = ln Z(β) (thermodynamical potential) consistent treatment of Dynamical quantities (real time formalism) and thermodynamical bulk properties (imaginary time formalism) like energy, pressure, entropy Real- and Imaginary-Time quantities glued together by Analytic properties from (anti-)periodicity conditions of the fields (KMS-condition) Self-consistent set of equations for self-energies and mean fields
7 Problem of Renormalization #7 Infinities and Renormalization UV-Divergences Need a renormalization technique for numerical solution of the self-consistent equations In terms of perturbation theory: Resummation of all selfenergy insertions in propagators Self-consistent diagrams with explcit nested and overlapping sub-divergences Additional nested and overlapping sub-divergences from selfconsistency Conjecture from Weinberg s theorem, BPHZ-renormalization At finite temperatures: Self-consistent scheme rendered finite with local counterterms independent of temperature Analytic properties subtracted dispersion relations Φ-Functional technique Consistency of counterterms
8 Self-Consistent Tadpole I #8 The tadpole approximation Φ = iσ = Here: Only time-ordered propagator needed The renormalized tadpole d = 2ω = 2(2 ɛ): iσ = iλ d d p 2 (2π) d µ2ɛ ig(p) + CT Self-energy constant in p temperature dependent effective mass Dyson s equation can be resummed: ig(p) = i p 2 M 2 + iη + 2πn(p )δ(p 2 M 2 ) with M 2 = m 2 + Σ, n(p ) = exp(β p ) Use standard formulae for dimensional regularized Feynman integrals: Σ inf = λ [ ( )] 4πµ 32π 2 M 2 2 ɛ γ + ln M 2 () Does one need temperature dependent counter terms ( λm 2 /ɛ)?
9 Self-Consistent Tadpole II #9 Counterterms Solution: We do not only need an overall but also a vertex counter-term for sub-divergence: iσ = iσ reg + + i δλ λ Σ reg iδm 2 How to determine the vertex counterterm? From equations of motion consistency condition of Bethe-Salpeter-type : it (c) 2 = = + = Renormalize the Dinosaur diagram vertex counterterm iγ (4) =

11 Numerical Results # M[GeV] T[GeV] Numerical solution of the self-consistent tadpole equation compared to the perturbative result for m = 4MeV and λ = 5
12 Spontaneously Broken Symmetry #2 = 2 ( µφ)( µ φ)+ µ2 2 φ2 λ 4! φ4 Stable (tree-level) vacuum at φ = ϕ = 6µ2 m 2 = +2µ 2 > λ. Particles have Have to take the Mean Field ϕ into account and solve the coupled equations for both ϕ = const and Σ = const. The renormalization procedure is the same as in the unbroken case. Parameters from linear the σ-model: µ = 4MeV, λ = ϕ [GeV] V eff [GeV 4 ] T[GeV] ϕ[gev] M[GeV] T[GeV] The effective potential for T = 8MeV to T = 28MeV
13 The Sunset Diagram #3 The vacuum part iφ = iσ = 2 4! 3! Overall and sub-divergences to all orders perturbation theory Subtracted dispersion relations for vacuum divergences Counterterms of tadpole-type const. and the overall subtraction O(p 2 ) (mass- and wave function renormalization) Simple subtractions in dispersion relation
14 Algorithm #4 Strategy for the vacuum Starting with perturbative propagators calculate imaginary part of the retarded self-energy (finite!): Im Σ R = Σ + Σ + 2i Real part from twice subtracted dispersion relation: Σ R (s) =(s m 2 ren )2 dz π Im Σ R (z) (z s + iɛσ(p ))(z m 2 ren) Σ R (m2 ren )(s m2 ren ) + Σ R(m 2 ren ) Dyson s equation for the retarded propagator G R = p 2 m 2 Σ R + iɛσ(p ) and plug it into the next calculation for Im Σ R. Iterate this procedure until the Σ R does not change anymore
15 The Sunset Diagram for T > #5 Renormalization of vacuum sub-divergence iγ (4) vac = Algorithm Calculate renormalized Γ (4) vac with already given self-consistent vacuum propagator (blue) Renormalization condition: Γ (4) vac(s = ) =. Calculate Im Σ R with the full thermal propagator Subtract the vacuum part and 3 the bad diagram Dispersion relation without subtraction for the rest Only pure vacuum subtractions in this part Full retarded bad diagram with vacuum subtracted Γ (4) - insertion finite Only vacuum sub-divergence subtracted Result: explicit overlapping divergences of the sunset diagram are completely subtracted with pure vacuum counter terms
