1109.6376 (V. P. Nair)

The Quantum Effective Action, Wave Functions and Yang-Mills (2+1)    [PDF]

V. P. Nair
We explore the relationship between the quantum effective action and the ground state (and excited state) wave functions of a field theory. Applied to the Yang-Mills theory in 2+1 dimensions, we find the leading terms of the effective action from the ground state wave function previously obtained in the Hamiltonian formalism by solving the Schrodinger equation.
