Effective Average Actions and Nonperturbative Evolution Equations

High Energy Physics - Theory 2007-05-23 v1

Abstract

The effective average actions for gauge theories and the associated nonperturbative evolution equations which govern their renormalization group flow are reviewed and various applications are described. As an example of a topological field theory, Chern-Simons theory is discussed in detail.
