Renormalisation Group (RG) flows in theory space (the space of couplings) are generated by a vector field -- the $\beta$ function. Using a specific metric ansatz in theory space and certain methods employed largely in the context of General…

We present the first study of the discrete $\beta$-function of the $ SU(3) $ gauge theory with 10 massless domain-wall fermions in the fundamental representation. The renormalized coupling is obtained by the finite-volume gradient flow…
We study a class of renormalization group flows on line defects that can be described by a generalized free field with ordered planar contractions on the line. They are realized, for example, in large $N$ gauge theories with matter in the…

We present the lattice simulation of the renormalization group flow in the $3$-dimensional $O(N)$ linear sigma model. This model possesses a nontrivial infrared fixed point, called Wilson--Fisher fixed point. Arguing that the parameter…
For scalar QED on a three-dimensional toroidal lattice with a fine lattice spacing we consider the renormalization problem of choosing counter terms depending on the lattice spacing, so that the theory stays finite as the spacing goes to…
We study the coupled equations describing fluctuations of scalars and the metric about background solutions of N=8 gauged supergravity which are dual to boundary field theories with renormalization group flow. For the case of a kink…

We study the renormalization group flow in weak power counting (WPC) renormalizable theories. The latter are theories which, after being formulated in terms of certain variables, display only a finite number of independent divergent…
Various aspects of the Exact Renormalization Group (ERG) are explored, starting with a review of the concepts underpinning the framework and the circumstances under which it is expected to be useful. A particular emphasis is placed on the…
We consider the general supersymmetric one-dimensional quantum system with boundary, critical in the bulk but not at the boundary. The renormalization group flow on the space of boundary conditions is generated by the boundary beta…
We examine the renormalization group flow in the vicinity of the free-field fixed point for effective field theories in the presence of a constant, nondynamical vector potential background. The interaction with this vector potential…
We construct a special-purpose functional flow equation which facilitates non-perturbative renormalization group (RG) studies on theory spaces involving a large number of independent field components that are prohibitively complicated using…
We propose new methods to extend the renormalization group transformation to complex coupling spaces. We argue that the Fisher's zeros are located at the boundary of the complex basin of attraction of infra-red fixed points. We support this…
We discuss the errors introduced by level truncation in the study of boundary renormalisation group flows by the Truncated Conformal Space Approach. We show that the TCSA results can have the qualitative form of a sequence of RG flows…

Critical behaviour of a fluid, subjected to strongly anisotropic turbulent mixing, is studied by means of the field theoretic renormalization group. As a simplified model, relaxational stochastic dynamics of a non-conserved scalar order…
Using Wilson-Polchinski renormalization group equations, we give a simple new proof of decoupling in a $\phi^4$-type scalar field theory involving two real scalar fields (one is heavy with mass $M$ and the other light). Then, to all orders…
