We develop a renormalization group method to investigate synchronization clusters in a one-dimensional chain of nearest-neighbor coupled phase oscillators. The method is best suited for chains with strong disorder in the intrinsic…
The coupled cluster method (CCM) is one of the most successful and universally applicable techniques in quantum many-body theory. The intrinsic nonlinear and non-perturbative nature of the method is considered to be one of its advantages.…
The motivation and the challenge in applying the renormalization group for systems with several scaling regimes is briefly outlined. The four dimensional $\phi^4$ model serves as an example where a nontrivial low energy scaling regime is…
The quantum kinetics of photons is studied directly in real time by implementing the dynamical renormalization group. In contrast to conventional approach, the dynamical renormalization group method consistently includes off-shell (energy…

The history of renormalization is reviewed with a critical eye, starting with Lorentz's theory of radiation damping, through perturbative QED with Dyson, Gell-Mann & Low, and others, to Wilson's formulation and Polchinski's functional…
After a historical review, I present the progress in the field of realistic NN potentials that we have seen in recent years. A new generation of very quantitative (high-quality/high-precision) NN potentials has emerged. These potentials…
We introduce a new family of tensorial field theories by coupling different fields in a non-trivial way, with a view towards the investigation of the coupling between matter and gravity in the quantum regime. As a first step, we consider…
Recently a block spin renormalization group approach was proposed for the dynamical triangulation formulation of two-dimensional quantum gravity. We use this approach to examine non-perturbatively a particular class of higher derivative…
A method of ``blocking'' triangulations that rests on the self-similarity feature of dynamically triangulated random manifolds is proposed. The method is used to define the renormalization group for random geometries. As an illustration,…
In physics one attempts to infer the rules governing a system given only the results of imperfect measurements. Hence, microscopic theories may be effectively indistinguishable experimentally. We develop an operationally motivated procedure…
We show that the Wilsonian formulation of the renormalization group (RG) defines a quantum channel acting on the momentum-space density matrices of a quantum field theory. This information theoretical property of the RG allows us to derive…
Renormalization group (RG) methods used to soften Hamiltonians allow large-scale computational resources to be used to greater advantage in calculations of nuclear structure and reactions. These RG transformations lower the effective…

The method of screening and renormalization is used to include the Coulomb interaction between the charged particles in the momentum-space description of three- and four-body nuclear reactions. The necessity for the renormalization of the…
We review some aspects of non commutative quantum field theory and group field theory, in particular recent progress on the systematic study of the scaling and renormalization properties of group field theory. We thank G. Zoupanos and the…
Renormalization group methods are used to determine the evolution of the low energy Wilson effective action for supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models in four dimensions. For the case of supersymmetric $CP^{(N-1)}$ models, the K\"ahler…
The renormalization group approach as developed by the author for Fermi liquids is applied to clean Fermi liquids and ballistic quantum dots. In the former case Landau theory is shown to be a fixed point and in the latter the Universal…
We consider a functional relation between a given Wilsonian RG flow, which has to be related to a specific coarse-graining procedure, and an infinite family of (UV cutoff) scale dependent field redefinitions. Within this framework one can…
Some renormalization group approaches have been proposed during the last few years which are close in spirit to the Nightingale phenomenological procedure. In essence, by exploiting the finite size scaling hypothesis, the approximate…
