We derive, based only on simple principles of renormalization in coordinate space, closed renormalized amplitudes and renormalization group constants at one- and two-loop orders for scalar field theories in general backgrounds. This is achieved through a renormalization procedure we develop exploiting the central idea behind differential renormalization, which needs as the only inputs the propagator and the appropriate Laplacian for the backgrounds in question. We work out this coordinate space renormalization in some detail, and subsequently back it up with specific calculations for scalar theories both on curved backgrounds, manifestly preserving diffeomorphism invariance, and at finite temperature.

We present the extension of the zero temperature Schwinger α-representation to the finite temperature scalar field theories. We give, in a compact form, the α-integrand of Feynman amplitudes of these theories. Using this representation, we analyze short-range divergences, and recover in a simple way the known result that the counterterms are temperature-independent.

We review our recent work on the low-energy actions and the realizations of strong-weak coupling dualities in non-perturbative phases of compact antisymmetric tensor field theories due to p-brane condensation. As examples we derive and discuss the confining string and confining membrane actions obtained from compact vector and tensor theories in 4D. We also mention the relevance of our results for the description of the Hagedorn phase transition of finite temperature strings.
