Critical exponents of the three-dimensional classical plane rotator model on the sc lattice from a high temperature series analysis
High temperature series expansions of the spin-spin correlation function for the plane rotator (or XY) model on the sc lattice are extended by three terms through order $\beta^{17}$. Tables of the expansion coefficients are reported for the correlation function spherical moments of order $l=0,1,2$. Our analysis of the ...

The Higgs Model with a Complex Ghost Pair
A higher derivative term is introduced in the kinetic energy of the Higgs Lagrangian in the minimal Standard Model. A logically consistent and {\it finite} field theory is obtained when some excitations of the Higgs field are quantized with indefinite metric in the Hilbert space. The Landau ghost phenomenon of the conv...

SU(2) QCD in the Path Representation: General Formalism and Mandelstam Indentities
We introduce a path-dependent hamiltonian representation (the path representation) for SU(2) with fermions in 3 + 1 dimensions. The gauge-invariant operators and hamiltonian are realized in a Hilbert space of open path and loop functionals. We obtain two new types of Mandelstam identities one that connects open path op...

The XY Model on a Dynamical Random Lattice

Low Temperature Expansions for Potts Models
On simple cubic lattices, we compute low temperature series expansions for the energy, magnetization and susceptibility of the three-state Potts model in D=2 and D=3 to 45 and 39 excited bonds respectively, and the eight-state Potts model in D=2 to 25 excited bonds. We use a recursive procedure which enumerates states ...
