Development of Algorithms for the Direct Multi-Configuration Self- Consistent Field (MCSCF) Method
Creators: name: Li, Shaopeng
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: In order to improve the performance of the current parallelized direct multi-configuration self-consistent field (MCSCF) implementations of the program package Gaussian [42], consisting of the complete active space (CAS) SCF method [43] and the restricted active space (RAS) SCF method [44], this thesis introduces a matrix multiplication scheme as part of the CI eigenvalue evaluation of these methods. Thus highly optimized linear algebra routines, which are able to use data in a sequential and predictable way, can be used in our method, resulting in a much better performance overall than the current methods. The side effect of this matrix multiplication scheme is that it requires some extra memory to store the additional intermediate matrices. Several chemical systems are used to demonstrate that the new CAS and RAS methods are faster than the current CAS and RAS methods respectively. This thesis is structured into four chapters. Chapter One is the general introduction, which describes the background of the CASSCF/RASSCF methods. Then the efficiency of the current CASSCF/RASSCF code is discussed, which serves as the motivation for this thesis, followed by a brief introduction to our method. Chapter Two describes applying the matrix multiplication scheme to accelerate the current direct CASSCF method, by reorganizing the summation order in the equation that generates non-zero Hamiltonian matrix elements. It is demonstrated that the new method can perform much faster than the current CASSCF method by carrying out single point energy calculations on pyracylene and pyrene molecules, and geometry optimization calculations on anthracene+ / phenanthrene+ molecules. However, in the RASSCF method, because an arbitrary number of doubly-occupied or unoccupied orbitals are introduced into the CASSCF reference space, many new orbital integral cases arise. Some cases are suitable for the matrix multiplication scheme, while others are not. Chapter Three applies the scheme to those suitable integral cases that are also the most time-consuming cases for the RASSCF calculation. The coronene molecule - with different sizes of orbital active space - has been used to demonstrate that the new RASSCF method can perform significantly faster than the current Gaussian method. Chapter Four describes an attempt to modify the other integral cases, based on a review of the method developed by Saunders and Van Lenthe [95]. Calculations on coronene molecule are used again to test whether this implementation can further improve the performance of the RASSCF method developed in Chapter Three.

A fully ab initio quartic force field of spectroscopic quality for SO_3
Creators: name: Martin, Jan M. L.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Chemical Physics (physics.chem-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: The quartic force field of SO$_3$ was computed fully ab initio using coupled cluster (CCSD(T)) methods and basis sets of up to $spdfgh$ quality. The effect of inner-shell correlation was taken into account. The addition of tight $d$ functions is found to be essential for accurate geometries and harmonic frequencies. The equilibrium geometry and vibrational fundamentals are reproduced to within 0.0003 Åand (on average) 1.15 cm^{-1}, respectively. We recommend the following revised values for the harmonic frequencies: $ω_1 = 1082.7, ω_2 = 502.6, ω_3 = 1415.4, ω_4 = 534.0 cm^{-1}$. In addition, we have shown that the addition of inner polarization functions to second-row elements is highly desirable even with more approximate methods like B3LYP, and greatly improves the quality of computed geometries and harmonic frequencies of second-row compounds at negligible extra computational cost. For larger such molecules, the B3LYP/VTZ+1 level of theory should be a very good compromise between accuracy and computational cost.

description: We show that there are $O_\varepsilon(H^{1.5+\varepsilon})$ monic, cubic polynomials with integer coefficients bounded by $H$ in absolute value whose Galois group is $A_3$. We also show that the order of magnitude for $D_4$ quartics is $H^2 (\log H)^2$, and that the respective counts for $A_4$, $V_4$, $C_4$ are $O(H^{2.91})$, $O(H^2 \log H)$, $O(H^2 \log H)$. Our work establishes that irreducible non-$S_3$ cubic polynomials are less numerous than reducible ones, and similarly in the quartic setting: these are the first two solved cases of a 1936 conjecture made by van der Waerden.
f-FERM: A Scalable Framework for Robust Fair Empirical Risk Minimization

description: Training and deploying machine learning models that meet fairness criteria for protected groups are fundamental in modern artificial intelligence. While numerous constraints and regularization terms have been proposed in the literature to promote fairness in machine learning tasks, most of these methods are not amenable to stochastic optimization due to the complex and nonlinear structure of constraints and regularizers. Here, the term "stochastic" refers to the ability of the algorithm to work with small mini-batches of data. Motivated by the limitation of existing literature, this paper presents a unified stochastic optimization framework for fair empirical risk minimization based on f-divergence measures (f-FERM). The proposed stochastic algorithm enjoys theoretical convergence guarantees. In addition, our experiments demonstrate the superiority of fairness-accuracy tradeoffs offered by f-FERM for almost all batch sizes (ranging from full-batch to batch size of one). Moreover, we show that our framework can be extended to the case where there is a distribution shift from training to the test data. Our extension is based on a distributionally robust optimization reformulation of f-FERM objective under $L_p$ norms as uncertainty sets. Again, in this distributionally robust setting, f-FERM not only enjoys theoretical convergence guarantees but also outperforms other baselines in the literature in the tasks involving distribution shifts. An efficient stochastic implementation of $f$-FERM is publicly available.

description: We present a covariant ray tracing algorithm for computing high-resolution neutrino distributions in general relativistic numerical spacetimes with hydrodynamical sources. Our formulation treats the very important effect of elastic scattering of neutrinos off of nuclei and nucleons (changing the neutrino's direction but not energy) by incorporating estimates of the background neutrino fields. Background fields provide information about the spectra and intensities of the neutrinos scattered into each ray. These background fields may be taken from a low-order moment simulation or be ignored, in which case the method reduces to a standard state-of-the-art ray tracing formulation. The method handles radiation in regimes spanning optically thick to optically thin. We test the new code, highlight its strengths and weaknesses, and apply it to a simulation of a neutron star merger to compute neutrino fluxes and spectra, and to demonstrate a neutrino flavor oscillation calculation. In that environment, we find qualitatively different fluxes, spectra, and oscillation behaviors when elastic scattering is included.

Ab initio thermochemistry beyond chemical accuracy for first-and second-row compounds
Creators: name: Martin, Jan M. L.
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 1998
Subjects: subject: Chemical Physics (physics.chem-ph)
subject: FOS: Physical sciences

description: By judicious use of extrapolations to the 1-particle basis set limit and $n$-particle calibration techniques, total atomization energies of molecules with up to four heavy atoms can be obtained with calibration accuracy (1 kJ/mol or better, on average) without any empirical correction. For the SCF energy a 3-point geometric extrapolation is the method of choice. For the MP2 correlation energy, a 2-point $A+B/(l+1/2)^3$ extrapolation is recommended, while for CCSD and CCSD(T) correlation energies we prefer the 3-point $A+B/(l+1/2)^C$ formula. Addition of high-exponent `inner polarization functions' to second-row atoms is essential for reliable results. For the highest accuracy, accounts are required of inner-shell correlation, atomic spin-orbit splitting, anharmonicity in the zero-point energy, and scalar relativistic effects.

A multi quadratic set is obtained in the hyperbolic case contrary to [1]. In the hyperbolic case a breakdown of this simple dynamics takes place.

Benchmark ab initio thermochemistry of the isomers of diimide, N_2H_2, using accurate computed structures and anharmonic force fields

description: A benchmark ab initio study on the thermochemistry of the trans-HNNH, cis-HNNH, and H$_2$NN isomers of diazene has been carried out using the CCSD(T) coupled cluster method, basis sets as large as $[7s6p5d4f3g2h/5s4p3d2f1g]$, and extrapolations towards the 1-particle basis set limit. The effects on inner-shell correlation and of anharmonicity in the zero-point energy were taken into account: accurate geometries and anharmonic force fields were thus obtained as by-products. Our best computed $ΔH^\circ_{f,0}$ for trans-HNNH, 49.2 \pm 0.3 kcal/mol, is in very good agreement with a recent experimental lower limit of 48.8 \pm 0.5 kcal/mol. CCSD(T) basis set limit values for the isomerization energies at 0 K are 5.2 \pm 0.2 kcal/mol (cis-trans) and 24.1 \pm 0.2 kcal/mol (iso-trans). Our best computed geometry for trans-HNNH, $r_e$(NN)=1.2468 Å, $r_e$(NH)=1.0283 Å, and $θ_e$=106.17$^\circ$, reproduces the precisely known ground-state rotational constants of trans-HNNH to within better than 0.1 %. The rotation-vibration spectra of both cis-HNNH and H$_2$NN are dominated by very strong Coriolis and Fermi resonances. In addition, the NH stretches in H$_2$NN are so strongly anharmonic that vibrational perturbation theory breaks down, and the molecule appears to be an excellent test case for variational treatments of the vibrational Schrödinger equation.

The Universal Stress Proteins of Bacteria
Creators: name: Bradley, Dominic
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: Universal stress proteins (USPs) are a widespread and abundant protein family often linked to survival during stress. However, their exact biochemical and cellular roles are incompletely understood. Mycobacterium tuberculosis (Mtb) has 10 USPs, of which Rv1636 appears to be unique in its domain structure and being the only USP conserved in M. leprae. Over-expression of Rv1636 in M. smegmatis indicated that this protein does not share the growth arrest phenotype of another Mtb USP, Rv2623, suggesting distinct roles for the Mtb USPs. Purified Rv1636 was shown to have novel nucleotide binding capabilities when subjected to UV crosslinking. A range of site-directed mutants of Rv1636 were produced, including mutations within a predicted nucleotide binding motif, with the aim of identifying and characterising key residues within the Rv1636 protein. Further putative biochemical activities, including nucleotide triphosphatase, nucyleotidylyation and auto-phosphorylation were also investigated in vitro; however Rv1636 could not be shown to definitively possess these activities, raising the possibility that addition factors may be present in vivo. Bioinformatic analysis of Rv1636 has provided an in-depth look at the protein. The crystal structure of Rv1636 shows a strand swapped dimer conformation that appears to block the predicted nucleotide binding site, providing a possible reason for the low NTPase activity previously observed. Truncated Rv1636 constructs were successfully generated, in which the strand swapped dimer was disrupted, and subjected to biophysical analysis, including analytical ultracentrifugation and size exclusion chromatography combined with multi-angle light scattering. Previous Mtb single-USP mutants are known to have no phenotype under a range of stress conditions. For this reason the P. aeruginosa USP PA3309, which does possess a stress survival phenotype, was also investigated. This provided the opportunity to investigate the role of USPs and their putative nucleotide binding motif in vivo. Site-directed mutants of PA3309 were generated to investigate the role of the nucleotide binding motif in vivo. It remains to be determined if the survival defect observed for ΔPA3309 strain can be complemented with these mutants as the vector system used in these experiments proved unable to integrate into the attB site of the genome. Through the analysis of the USPs from mycobacteria and Pseudomonas, the aim was to elucidate a greater understanding of the role of Rv1636 in Mtb and the role of USPs in general. The bioinformatic and biochemical analyses of USPs, in addition to the site directed mutants generated as a result of this work, will provide a strong foundation for future studies.
Non-Perturbative Mass Renormalization in Quenched QED from the Worldline Variational Approach

description: Following Feynman's successful treatment of the polaron problem we apply the same variational principle to quenched QED in the worldline formulation. New features arise from the description of fermions by Grassmann trajectories, the supersymmetry between bosonic and fermionic variables and the much more singular structure of a renormalizable gauge theory like QED in 3+1 dimensions. We take as trial action a general retarded quadratic action both for the bosonic and fermionic degrees of freedom and derive the variational equations for the corresponding retardation functions. We find a simple analytic, non-perturbative, solution for the anomalous mass dimension gamma_m(alpha) in the MS scheme. For small couplings we compare our result with recent four-loop perturbative calculations while at large couplings we find that gamma_m(alpha) becomes proportional to (alpha)^(1/2). The anomalous mass dimension shows no obvious sign of the chiral symmetry breaking observed in calculations based on the use of Dyson-Schwinger equations, however we find that a perturbative expansion of gamma_m(alpha) diverges for alpha > 0.7934. Finally, we investigate the behaviour of gamma_m(alpha) at large orders in perturbation theory.

Molecular Studies on Plasmodium During Development in the Mosquito
Creators: name: Armson, Rebecca
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: Among the factors that regulate transmission of malaria are host-derived immune factors which can inhibit the progression of Plasmodium through the mosquito. This thesis addresses whether members of a family of LCCL/lectin Adhesive–like Proteins (LAPs) could act as feasible targets to elicit an antibody-mediated blockade in parasite transmission. The LAP family comprises six putatively secreted multidomain proteins which appear conserved among Plasmodium species and other apicomplexan parasites. Studies utilise the Plasmodium berghei rodent malaria parasite as an experimental system to evaluate the potential transmission-blocking activity of antibodies raised against LAPs. Regions of the proteins were selected for heterologous expression in Escherichia coli. Eight recombinant proteins were successfully expressed and were used as antigens to generate antisera in mice. Following immunogenicity tests, antisera against regions of LAP1, LAP3, LAP4 and LAP6 were selected for further characterisation and tested for antimalarial transmission-blocking activity. A combination of in vitro and in vivo assays revealed that the presence of anti-LAP antibodies did not inhibit parasite development. Whilst not conclusively excluding their potential, this work provided no further evidence to support the inclusion of LAPs as candidates for transmission-blocking vaccines. Immunolocalisation studies using anti-LAP1 antibodies revealed that the protein is expressed in cytoplasmic regions of female gametocytes and to a lesser extent in female gametes. Although it has been proposed that LAP expression may cease following fertilisation, PbLAP1 was detected in the cytoplasm of developing zygotes and intriguingly was subsequently found to concentrate in compartments of the P. berghei ookinete corresponding to the crystalloids. Antisera against regions of LAP1, LAP3, LAP4 and LAP6 were all found to similarly label the distinct electron dense cellular compartments. Furthermore, observation of Pblap mutant ookinetes by light microscopy indicated deficiencies in the formation of crystalloids. A transient cellular compartment, formed in the ookinete and subsequently fragmenting during early stages of oocyst development, roles of the crystalloid remain unknown. The association between LAPs and the crystalloids however leads to potential insights into the biological roles of the LAP family, the crystalloids, and the cellular processes of Plasmodium sporogony. Through microarray analysis, a comparison of the transcriptional profiles of P. berghei Δlap1 and wild-type ookinetes was made, detecting 274 differentially expressed genes and thereby indicating that the absence of PbLAP1 and resulting deficiency in crystalloid formation may have several knock-on effects on cellular processes important to Plasmodium development in the mosquito.

description: Liouville theorem (LT) reveals robust incompressibility of distribution function in phase space, given arbitrary potentials. However, its quantum generalization, Wigner flow, is compressible, i.e., LT is only conditionally true (e.g., for perfect Harmonic potential). We develop quantum Liouville theorem (rigorous incompressibility) for arbitrary potentials (interacting or not) in Hamiltonians. Haar measure, instead of symplectic measure dp^dq used in Wigner's scheme, plays a central role. The argument is based on general measure theory, independent of specific spaces or coordinates. Comparison of classical and quantum is made: for instance, we address why Haar measure and metric preservation do not work in the classical case. Applications of theorems in statistics, topological phase transition, ergodic theory, etc. are discussed.

Reduction of the Pareto Set in Multicriteria Economic Problem with CES Functions
Creators: name: Zakharov, Aleksey
Publisher: name: arXiv
Year: 2018
Subjects: subject: Optimization and Control (math.OC)
subject: FOS: Mathematics

description: A multicriteria economic problem is considered: the basic production assets and the labor resources define a set of feasible solutions (alternatives), labor costs, costs of the basic production assets (to be minimized), and cost of the manufactured products (to be maximized) are objective functions. The production function with constant elasticity of substitution is used. The decision maker's (DM's) preferences are introduced as follows: lower labor costs and costs of the basic production assets have the greater importance than higher income, and vice a versa. The fuzzy preferences along with the compromise have a degree of its confidence. Such crisp and fuzzy information is applied in the axiomatic approach of the Pareto set reduction by V. D. Noghin. We show how to construct a set, which is an upper bound of the optimal choice and belongs to the Pareto set of the problem in crisp and fuzzy cases. In fuzzy case one should solve a three crisp multicriteria problems. Thus, upon the crisp and fuzzy DM's preferences a narrower upper bounds of the optimal set of resources with respect to criteria and additional information are obtained.

Red deer habitat management in the Highlands: Consequences for invertebrates
Creators: name: Tinsley-Marshall, Paul James
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2010

description: In Scotland, the well documented increase in the red deer population is widely regarded as a cause for concern, due to potentially detrimental impacts of grazing. This has lead to conflicting objectives between conservation and deer managers, despite the extent of the increase and the resulting impact both being hotly debated issues. Upland heather moorland is of international conservation importance while woodland habitats are some of the most stable ecosystems in anthropogenic landscapes. In the UK oak woodland plays a crucial role in the maintenance of biodiversity, and both heather moorland and oak woodland may be subject to degradation or decline due to grazing. This study is based in north-west Scotland, and investigates the consequences of two deer management strategies, in two habitat types, for invertebrates. An observational study of heather moorland under two extremes of grazing pressure provided little evidence for negative impacts of grazing on invertebrates on the more heavily grazed Letterewe Estate, suggesting that the deer population is not a cause for concern in terms of invertebrate biodiversity. An experimental study of grazed and un-grazed oak woodland found some positive effects, and no instances of negative grazing impacts on invertebrate biodiversity, and no effect on guild structure. This work highlights the need for science to inform land management policy that must often seek to balance conservation objectives with economic interests, and supports the notion that a red deer herd of a size consistent with viable stalking interests can be integral to the maintenance of biodiversity and the natural heritage.

description: The dispersion characteristics of an circularly polarized electromagnetic wave of arbitrary amplitude, propagating in a highly (thermally and kinematically) relativistic plasma, are shown to approach those of a linear wave in an unmagnetized, non-relativistic plasma. Further aided by high relativistic temperatures, the cut-off frequency tends to become negligibly small; as a result, waves with frequencies well below the nominal plasma and the cyclotron frequencies find the plasma to be essentially transparent. This relativistic phenomenon may greatly advance our ability to understand and model the dynamics of a large class of astrophysical and laser-produced high energy density systems.

Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: The thesis uses Malliavin’s Stochastic Calculus of Variations to identify the hedging strategies for Barrier style derived securities. The thesis gives an elementary treatment of this calculus which should be accessible to the non-specialist. The thesis deals also with extensions of the calculus to the composition of a Generalized Function and a Stochastic Variable which makes it applicable to the discontinuous payoffs encountered with Barrier Structures. The thesis makes a mathematical contribution by providing an elementary calculus for the composition of a Generalized function with a Stochastic Variable in the presence of a conditional expectation.

Catalytic Reaction Engineering of Propene Epoxidation with Hydrogen Peroxide over Titanium Silicalite (TS-1)
Creators: name: Shin, Sang Baek
Publisher: name: Imperial College London
Year: 2011

description: Propene oxide is an important chemical intermediate in the chemical industry. The propene oxide industry has employed two different types of commercial processes for several decades: the chlorohydrin process and the hydroperoxidation process. However, direct epoxidation of propene with hydrogen peroxide has recently attracted much attention as a more environmentally benign and profitable process. This thesis presents the catalytic reaction engineering of the epoxidation of propene to propene oxide using hydrogen peroxide as the oxidant and titanium silicalite (TS-1) as the catalyst under mild conditions. The kinetics of the heterogeneous catalytic epoxidation was studied in an autoclave reactor using methanol/water mixtures as the solvent. The effects of stirring speed, catalyst loading, reactant concentration, reaction temperature, solvent composition and solvent variation on the propene oxidation are presented and discussed. The catalytic performance of TS-1 impregnated with precious metal nanoparticles such as gold and palladium for the propene epoxidation was also investigated. The influences of the kind of precious metal and treatment process adopted in the catalyst preparation on the propene epoxidation and the hydrogen peroxide decomposition were explored. One of the key objectives of this research was to evaluate a new continuous reactor concept for propene epoxidation and other liquid-phase selective oxidation reactions. A conventional monolith and a confined Taylor flow (CTF) reactor were studied for the propene epoxidation. The influences of gas and liquid flow rates on the hydrodynamics of the structured reactors were investigated under Taylor flow regime at atmospheric pressure. It was found that the variation of hydrodynamics had a significant impact on the production of propene oxide. The effect of operating pressure on the propene oxide production was studied in a pressurised system. In addition, the performances of various structures of reactor column were examined to compare.
Application of the time-dependent local-density approximation to conjugated molecules

description: The time-dependent local-density approximation (TDLDA) is applied to the optical response of conjugated carbon molecules in the energy range of 0-30 eV, with calculations given for carbon chains, polyenes, retinal, benzene and C_60. The major feature of the spectra, the collective pi-pi* transition, is seen at energies ranging from below 2 to 7 eV, and is reproduced by the theory to a few tenths of an eV with a good account of systematic trends. However, there is some indication that TDLDA predicts too much fragmentation of the strength function in large molecules. Transition strengths are reproduced with a typical accuracy of 20%. The theory also predicts a broad absorption peak in the range 15-25 eV, and this feature agrees with experiment in the one case where quantitative data is available (benzene).

description: The following report describes the results of a data recovery program at two prehistoric archaeology sites located in San Pedro, California: CA-LAn-291 and CA-LAn-1144. The assemblage at CA-LAn-291 is dominated by chipped stone artifacts, primarily bifaces. It is likely that other classes of artifacts were present, but are underrepresented due to the prior destruction of portions of the site. While the reliance on marine resources is well documented, it is suggested that hook and line fishing played a greater role in subsistence than is reflected in this assemblage. Radiocarbon dates indicate the site was occupied during the late Millingstone and early Intermediate periods, and seasonality studies on fish otoliths indicate year-around fishing. The assemblage at CA-LAn-1144 contains a wide variety of procurement and food processing tools. Obsidian and steatite, indicating trade, are also present in small quantities. As with CA-LAn-291, the reliance on marine resources is well documented at CA-LAn-1144. In contrast to CA-LAn-291, however, the season of occupation at CA-LAn-1144 appears to be confined to the summer. Radiocarbon dates indicate an occupation during the early to middle Intermediate Period.

description: Model-based approaches to imaging, like specialized image enhancements in astronomy, facilitate explanations of relationships between observed inputs and computed outputs. These models may be expressed with extended matrix-vector (EMV) algebra, especially when they involve only scalars, vectors, and matrices, and with n-mode or index notations, when they involve multidimensional arrays, also called numeric tensors or, simply, tensors. While this paper features an example, inspired by exoplanet imaging, that employs tensors to reveal (inverse) 2D fast Fourier transforms in an image enhancement model, the work is actually about the tensor algebra and software, or tensor frameworks, available for model-based imaging. The paper proposes a Ricci-notation tensor (RT) framework, comprising a dual-variant index notation, with Einstein summation convention, and codesigned object-oriented software, called the RTToolbox for MATLAB. Extensions to Ricci notation offer novel representations for entrywise, pagewise, and broadcasting operations popular in EMV frameworks for imaging. Complementing the EMV algebra computable with MATLAB, the RTToolbox demonstrates programmatic and computational efficiency via careful design of numeric tensor and dual-variant index classes. Compared to its closest competitor, also a numeric tensor framework that uses index notation, the RT framework enables superior ways to model imaging problems and, thereby, to develop solutions.

description: The Gauss law plays a basic role in gauge theories, enforcing gauge invariance and creating edge states and superselection sectors. This article surveys these aspects of the Gauss law in QED, QCD and nonlinear $G/H$ models. It is argued that nonabelian superselection rules are spontaneously broken. That is the case with $SU(3)$ of colour which is spontaneously broken to $U(1)\times U(1)$. Nonlinear $G/H$ models are reformulated as gauge theories and the existence of edge states and superselection sectors in these models is also established.

description: We use a new gyrokinetic threshold model to predict a bifurcation in tokamak pedestal width-height scalings that depends strongly on plasma shaping and aspect-ratio. The bifurcation arises from the first and second stability properties of kinetic-ballooning-modes that yields wide and narrow pedestal branches, expanding the space of accessible pedestal widths and heights. The wide branch offers potential for edge-localized-mode-free pedestals with high core pressure. For negative triangularity, low-aspect-ratio configurations are predicted to give steeper pedestals than conventional-aspect-ratio. Both wide and narrow branches have been attained in tokamak experiments.

Temperature Independent Renormalization of Finite Temperature Field Theory

description: We analyse 4-dimensional massive $\vp^4$ theory at finite temperature T in the imaginary-time formalism. We present a rigorous proof that this quantum field theory is renormalizable, to all orders of the loop expansion. Our main point is to show that the counterterms can be chosen temperature independent, so that the temperature flow of the relevant parameters as a function of $T$ can be followed. Our result confirms the experience from explicit calculations to the leading orders. The proof is based on flow equations, i.e. on the (perturbative) Wilson renormalization group. In fact we will show that the difference between the theories at T>0 and at T=0 contains no relevant terms. Contrary to BPHZ type formalisms our approach permits to lay hand on renormalization conditions and counterterms at the same time, since both appear as boundary terms of the renormalization group flow. This is crucial for the proof.
