Spectral functions in the $ϕ^4$-theory from the spectral DSE

We develop a non-perturbative functional framework for computing real-time correlation functions in strongly correlated systems. The framework is based on the spectral representation of correlation functions and dimensional regularisation. Therefore, the non-perturbative spectral renormalisation setup here respects all symmetries of the theories at hand. In particular this includes space-time symmetries as well as internal symmetries such as chiral symmetry, and gauge symmetries. Spectral renormalisation can be applied within general functional approaches such as the functional renormalisation group, Dyson-Schwinger equations, and two- or $n$-particle irreducible approaches. As an application we compute the full, non-perturbative, spectral function of the scalar field in the $ϕ^4$-theory in $2+1$ dimensions from spectral Dyson-Schwinger equations. We also compute the $s$-channel spectral function of the full $ϕ^4$-vertex in this theory.
