Abstract

In the nonlocalgϕ /4 d (d≧1) and localgϕ 42 theory theS-matrix is obtained in a form of the functional integral which is proved to exist. The density of vacuum energy

$$E(g) = - \mathop {\lim }\limits_{V \to \infty } \frac{1}{V}\ln \left\langle {0\left| {S_V (g)} \right|0} \right\rangle $$

is investigated. It is proved to be analytic through the whole complexg-plane except for the negative real axis and pointg=0. Its asymptotic behaviour forg→∞ is found.
