A nonperturbative study of three-dimensional quartic scalar field theory using modal field methods

The method of modal field theory is a new development in the field of nonperturbative quantum field theory. This approach reduces a quantum field theory to a finite-dimensional quantum mechanical system by expanding field configurations in terms of free-wave modes. In this dissertation we apply this...
