This paper, which was concerned with a field-theoretic analysis of the PCPD by means of the renormalization group, has been withdrawn by the authors. We had found a nontrivial RG fixed point, but could not exclude the possibility that it…
We reformulate the density matrix renormalization group method (DMRG) in terms of a single block, instead of the standard left and right blocks used in the construction of the superblock. This version of the DMRG, which we call the puncture…
We show how the renormalons emerge from the renormalization group equation with a priori no reference to any Feynman diagrams. The proof is rather given by recasting the renormalization group equation as a resurgent equation studied in the…
The Comment by Markenscoff that criticizes a recent dynamic extension of the Peierls-Nabarro equation [Y.-P. Pellegrini, Phys. Rev. B 81, 024101 (2010)] is refuted by means of simple examples that illustrate the interest of using an…
We classify the unitary, renormalizable, Lorentz violating quantum field theories of interacting scalars and fermions, obtained improving the behavior of Feynman diagrams by means of higher space derivatives. Higher time derivatives are not…
Canonically, the quantum electrodynamic radiative corrections in bound systems have been evaluated in photon energy regularization, i. e. using a noncovariant overlapping parameter that separates the high-energy relativistic scales of the…
Renormalization group flows are studied between 5d SCFTs engineered by $(p,q)$ 5-brane webs with large numbers of external 5-branes. A general expression for the free energy on $S^5$ in terms of single-valued trilogarithm functions is…
The free energy of a closed 3-manifold is a 2-parameter formal power series which encodes the perturbative Chern-Simons invariant (also known as the LMO invariant) of a closed 3-manifold with gauge group U(N) for arbitrary $N$. We prove…
I discuss functional renormalization group (fRG) schemes, which allow for non-perturbative treatment of the self-energy effects and do not rely on the one-particle irreducible functional. In particular, I consider Polchinski or Wick-ordered…
We present the real-time renormalization group (RTRG) method as a method to describe the stationary state current through generic multi-level quantum dots with a complex setup in nonequilibrium. The employed approach consists of a very…
We compute the photon self-energy to three loops in Quantum Electrodynamics. The method of differential equations for Feynman integrals and a complete $\epsilon$-factorization of the former allow us to obtain fully analytical results in…
The Renormalization Group (RG) is a set of methods that have been instrumental in tackling problems involving an infinite number of degrees of freedom. What all these methods have in common -- which is what explains their success -- is that…
We discuss examples of (1+1)-dimensional models where the perturbative renormalization group (RG) indicates a tendency to restore the symmetry in the strong coupling limit. We show that such restoration does occur sometimes, but the…
Rearranging the six-dimensional phase space of particles in plasma can release energy. The rearrangement may happen through the application of electric and magnetic fields, subject to various constraints. The maximum energy that can be…
We calculate the free energy of the disordered urn model using the law of large numbers. It is revealed that the saddle point equation obtained by the usage of the law of large numbers is the same as that obtained by the replica method.…
In the unitary gauge the unphysical degrees of freedom of spontaneously broken gauge theories are eliminated. The Feynman rules are simpler than in other gauges, but it is non-renormalizable by the rules of power counting. On the other…
The Renormalization Group (RG) methods are still far from being completely understood in quenched disordered systems. In order to gain insight into the nature of the phase transition of these systems, it is common to investigate simple…
We present a variational renormalization group (RG) approach using a deep generative model based on normalizing flows. The model performs hierarchical change-of-variables transformations from the physical space to a latent space with…
Functional Renormalization Group Equations constitute a powerful tool to encode the perturbative and non-perturbative properties of a physical system. We present an algorithm to systematically compute the expansion of such flow equations in…
