Extracting each field operator as Wightman fields from a set of time-ordered products satisf...
The same paper shows that the converse is true: starting from time-ordered Green functions satisfying axioms T1-T7 as in subsection I.1 one can get the Schwinger functions (Theorem 1, pp. 99, add Coro …

Wick product of free fields and wave front sets in the sense of Lars Hörmander
The answer to both questions is no. This is due to two facts:
The Klein-Gordon two-point distribution $\omega_2(x,y)=\langle\Omega,\phi(x)\phi(y)\Omega\rangle$ in $\mathbb{R}^4$, where $\Omega_1=\Ome …

Is there, mathematically speaking, a QFT with the following properties?
First of all, strictly speaking you are talking about a finite-dimensional (in fact, 2-dimensional) caricature of QFT. More precisely, the only way in which your model can be thought of as a QFT is if …

QFT and mathematical rigor
As Abdelmalek Abdesselam pointed in his comment to the OP, the axiomatic approach to QFT is rather concerned with answering the question "what is a quantum field?". This is stated right at the Preface …

Rigorous construction of fermionic field theory?
There is the construction of the C${}^*\!$-algebra of canonical anticommutation relations (CAR's), which is actually somewhat easier than the construction of free bosonic fields: given any complex pre …

Initial conditions in the Klein-Gordon equation
One must remark that derivatives in Sobolev spaces are usually taken in the sense of distributions: given $k\in\mathbb{N}_0=\{0,1,2,\ldots\}$, $H^k(\mathbb{R}^n)$ is the space of tempered distribution …

Quantum fields and infinite tensor products
The "infinite tensor product" picture may be useful as a sort of concrete image of the state space of a quantum field theory, but in practice is rarely used because of the technical difficulties it br …

Reference request for a treatment of Schwinger–Dyson equations
In the formulation of QFT using formal functional integrals, as mentioned by Igor in his answer, the Schwinger-Dyson equation becomes an infinite-dimensional differential equation for the partition fu …

Braided Hopf algebras and Quantum Field Theories
Braided monoidal categories - more precisely, C*-categories of such kind - are the basic mathematical tool to encode the structure of superselection sectors in low-dimensional (<4) QFT. The low dimens …

References request: constructive quantum field theory
The standard reference for constructive QFT is the classic book by J. Glimm and A. Jaffe, Quantum Physics: a Functional Integral Point of View (2nd. ed., Springer-Verlag, 1988). It is certainly more t …

C*-algebras and quantum fields
The Weyl algebra construction can be done abstractly for any real vector space (even infinite-dimensional) endowed with an antisymmetric bilinear form, thanks to B. Blackadar's universal C*-algebra co …

What mathematical treatment is there on the renormalization group flow in a space of Lagrang...
A small complement to Abdelmalek Abdesselam's answer: on the rigorous, non-perturbative side, there is also a recent (originally two-part, now turned into three-part) exposition by Jonathan Dimock, av …
