Quantum Effective Potential

[hennin]

I am studying Srednicki textbook on QFT. I don't know how to compute effective (quantum) potential in \phi^3 theory with 1-loop.

 

Thanks

This article covers phi^3 with one path

There is no comment about quantum effective potential.

Yeah I've been digging for \phi^3 specific literature. Keep finding \phi^4.

[hennin]

Could anyone help?

You have presented a very specific QM model. I have been searching for the specific change between [latex]\phi^3[/latex] and [latex]\phi^4[/latex] (the latter being far more common).

 

QM isn't my strongest point lol. Language of QM irritates me, yet I have a stronger understanding of QFT fields.

 

As you have posed a very interesting topic (at least to me).As I have time, I will do my best to assist.

(PS keep in mind RL. I just got home from 50 Km north pole). Must give quality time with wife lol..
