We investigate the RG-time integration of the effective potential in the functional renormalization group in the presence of spontaneous symmetry breaking and its subsequent convexity restoration on the example of a scalar theory in $d=3$.…
It has been previously shown that calculation of renormalization group (RG) functions of the scalar \phi^4 theory reduces to the analysis of thermodynamic properties of the Ising model. Using high-temperature expansions for the latter, RG…
We compute numerically the sequence of successive pinned configurations of an elastic line pulled quasi-statically by a spring in a random bond (RB) and random field (RF) potential. Measuring the fluctuations of the center of mass of the…
We demonstrate for the first time that a functional-renormalization-group aided density-functional theory (FRG-DFT) describes well the characteristic features of the excited states as well as the ground state of an interacting many-body…
We use the Matsubara functional renormalization group (FRG) to describe electronic correlations within the single impurity Anderson model. In contrast to standard FRG calculations, we account for the frequency-dependence of the two-particle…
The self-gravitating thermal gas (non-relativistic particles of mass m at temperature T) is exactly equivalent to a field theory with a single scalar field phi(x) and exponential self-interaction. We build up perturbation theory around a…
We set up the Functional Renormalisation Group formalism for Tensorial Group Field Theory in full generality. We then apply it to a rank-3 model over U(1) x U(1) x U(1), endowed with a linear kinetic term and nonlocal interactions. The…
It has long been known that particles with short-range repulsive interactions in spatial dimension d=1 form universal quantum liquids in the low density limit: all properties can be related to those of the spinless free Fermi gas. Previous…
We use the functional renormalization group (FRG) to derive analytical expressions for thermodynamic observables (density, pressure, entropy, and compressibility) as well as for single-particle properties (wavefunction renormalization and…
We apply the nonperturbative functional renormalization group (NP-FRG) in the superfield formalism that we have developed in the preceding paper to study long-standing issues concerning the critical behavior of the random field Ising model.…
To explore the applicability of orbital-free density functional theory (OF-DFT) in nuclear physics, we perform a systematic benchmark of 36 one-point kinetic energy density functionals, which are originally developed for electron systems in…
We provide a resolution of one of the long-standing puzzles in the theory of disordered systems. By reformulating the functional renormalization group (FRG) for the critical behavior of the random field Ising model in a superfield…
The freezing transition of hard spheres has been well described by various versions of density-functional theory (DFT). These theories should possess the close-packed crystal as a special limit, which represents an extreme testing ground…
We study by the perturbative Functional Renormalization Group (FRG) the Random Field and Random Anisotropy O(N) models near $d=4$, the lower critical dimension of ferromagnetism. The long-distance physics is controlled by zero-temperature…

We discuss certain recent mathematical advances, mainly due to Perelman, in the theory of Ricci flows and their relevance for renormalization group (RG) flows. We consider nonlinear sigma models with closed target manifolds supporting a…
We study elastic manifolds in a N-dimensional random potential using functional RG. We extend to N>1 our previous construction of a field theory renormalizable to two loops. For isotropic disorder with O(N) symmetry we obtain the fixed…

The paper is an attempt to relate two vast areas of the applicability of the renormalization group (RG): field theoretic models and partial differential equations. It is shown that the Green function of a nonlinear diffusion equation can be…
We investigate the functional renormalization group (FRG) flow of the two-particle vertex function of a model for X-ray absorption in metals. Concerning the appearance of logarithmic divergences, the model is prototypical for an important…
