How are point-dependent concepts such as correlation functions, renormalization, cluster decomposition...etc interpreted in axiomatic QFT?

In traditional quantum field theory we often speak about things happening at a point. For example, the correlation function $$\langle 0 | \phi(x) \phi(y)\ | 0\rangle \tag{1}$$ can be thought of the ...

What is the field map in 0+1-dimensional QFT?

I'm a beginner trying to learn something about the Wightman axioms. I got the idea that from an abstract Hilbert space and an abstract Hamiltonian operator, I should be able to produce a trivial ...
