Description

We investigate massive models of quantum field theory of scalar field in logarithmic dimensions in Euclidean space. The Schwinger-Dyson equation and non-trivial solution for mass are considered in the paper.

The Schwinger-Dyson equation has the form:
$$ D^{-1} = \Delta^{-1} - \Sigma $$ where $D$ is a full propagator, $\Delta$ is a bar propagator, $\Sigma$ is a self-energy operator. In the minimal subtraction (MS) scheme it holds: $$ \Delta (p) = \frac{1}{p^2} $$ where $p$ is a momentum. The inverse full propagator has the following characteristic: $$ \left\{ \begin{array}{l} D^{-1} (p)|_{p^2=-m^2} = 0 \\ \left. \left( \frac{\partial}{\partial (p^2)} D^{-1} (p) \right) \right|_{p^2=-m^2} = \frac1A \end{array} \right. . $$ In the main approximation of perturbation theory it holds: $$ D(p) = \frac{A}{p^2+m^2} $$ where $A$ is an amplitude, $m$ is a mass. We investigate the scalar models $\phi^3$, $\phi^4$ and $\phi^6$. For the theories $\phi^3$ and $\phi^4$ mass appears in the first order of perturbation theory whereas for the $\phi^6$-theory the mass does not appear in the first order.
