Abstract: | The equivalence between a D-dimensional classical field theory coupled to an external random source having Gaussian correlations and its D−2 dimensional quantum counterpart was established. Utilizing this equivalence, a regularization procedure for scalar theories is developed. The regularization amounts to a compacification of the extra two dimensions. The regularization scheme is interpreted in terms of superpropagator modifications. |
