Onsager-Machlup under Renormalization  [PDF]

Stochastic quantization is a procedure for constructing measures, typically on spaces of distributions, with a given "probability density function" as the invariant measure of a stochastic PDE. These "densities" typically involve nonlinearities of distributions which necessitates renormalization. The renormalization, and the lack of a Lebesgue measure on infinite dimensional spaces leads to the question of in what sense these rigorously constructed measures have the given "density". The Onsager-Machlup function is one rigorous notion of probability density function on infinite dimensional spaces.

We are interested in the $\Phi_d^4$, and related, measures in dimensions $d\leq 3$ arising from EQFT. In dimension $1$, no renormalization is required. In dimension $2$, Wick renormalization is sufficient and in dimension $3$, the theory of regularity structures or paracontrolled calculus can be used to renormalize.

In an ongoing joint work with Ioannis Gasteratos (TU Berlin) we analyze the Onsager-Machlup function of the $\Phi^4$ and related measures.
