Renormalization of lattice field theories with infinite-range wavelets
Abstract
We present a new exact renormalization approach for quantum lattice models leading to long-range interactions. The renormalization scheme is based on wavelets with an infinite support in such a way that the excitation spectrum at the fixed point coincides with the spectrum of the associated short-range continuum model in an energy range below an upper cutoff imposed by the lattice spacing. As a consequence, the conformal towers of spectrum are exactly realized on the lattice up to a certain energy scale. We exemplify our approach by applying it to free bosons and to free fermions in dimensions, as well as to the Ising model. The analysis is also motivated by tensor network approaches to the AdS/CFT correspondence since our results may be useful for a qualitatively new construction of holographic duals complementary to previous approaches based on finite-range wavelets.
