An interacting one-dimensional electron system, the Luttinger liquid, is distinct from the "conventional" Fermi liquids formed by interacting electrons in two and three dimensions. Some of its most spectacular properties are revealed in the…
We study how electron-electron interactions renormalize tunneling into a Luttinger liquid beyond the lowest order of perturbation in the tunneling amplitude. We find that the conventional fixed point has a finite basin of attraction only in…
We apply the functional renormalisation group to few-nucleon systems. Our starting point is a local effective action that includes three- and four-nucleon interactions, expressed in terms of nucleon and two-nucleon boson fields. The…
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…
The renormalization group method is a successive integration over the fluctuations which are ordered according to their length scale, a parameter in the external space. A different procedure is described, where the fluctuations are treated…
Power series expansions naturally arise whenever solutions of ordinary differential equations are studied in the regime of perturbation theory. In the case of quasi-periodic solutions the issue of convergence of the series is plagued of the…
We study inelastic decay of bosonic excitations in a Luttinger liquid. In a model with linear excitation spectrum the decay rate diverges. We show that this difficulty is resolved when the interaction between constituent particles is…
In a recent Letter [Phys. Rev. Lett. 88, 256403(2002), cond-mat/0109158] Cazalilla and Marston proposed a time-dependent density- matrix renormalization group (TdDMRG) algorithm for the accurate evaluation of out-of-equilibrium properties…
We discuss an alternative method to mass renormalize a quantum field Hamiltonian based on a requirement that the vacuum and single-particle sectors are not self-scattering. We illustrate the feasibility of this method for the concrete…
Boundary impurities are known to dramatically alter certain bulk properties of 1+1 dimensional strongly correlated systems. The entanglement entropy of a zero temperature Luttinger liquid bisected by a single impurity is computed using a…
The single impurity problem in a spinful Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid is studied numerically using path-integral Monte Carlo methods. The advantage of our approach is that the system allows for extensive analyses of charge and spin conductance…
We investigate transport through a tunnelling junction between an uncorrelated metallic lead and a Luttinger liquid when the latter is subjected to a time dependent perturbation. The tunnelling current as well as the electron energy…
We investigate the thermodynamic geometry of the quark-meson model at finite temperature, $T$, and quark number chemical potential, $\mu$. We extend previous works by the inclusion of fluctuations exploiting the functional renormalization…
Renormalization Group (RG) techniques have been successfully employed in quantum field theory and statistical physics. Here we apply RG methods to study the non-linear stages of structure formation in the Universe. Exact equations for the…
We study the renormalization group flow in general quantum field theories with quenched disorder, focusing on random quantum critical points. We show that in disorder-averaged correlation functions the flow mixes local and non-local…
Dimensional regularization is applied to the Lippmann-Schwinger equation for a separable potential which gives rise to logarithmic singularities in the Born series. For this potential a subtraction at a fixed energy can be used to…
We use the numerical renormalization group method (NRG) to investigate a single-impurity Anderson model with a coupling of the impurity to a superconducting host. Analysis of the energy flow shows, in contrast to previous belief, that NRG…
The Tomonaga-Luttinger liquid (TLL) concept is believed to generically describe the strongly-correlated physics of one-dimensional systems at low temperatures. A hallmark signature in 1D conductors is the quantum phase transition between…
We study a Luttinger Liquid (LL) coupled to a generic environment consisting of bosonic modes with arbitrary density-density and current-current interactions. The LL can be either in the conducting phase and perturbed by a weak scatterer or…
Real-space renormalization-group techniques for quantum systems can be divided into two basic categories - those capable of representing correlations following a simple boundary (or area) law, and those which are not. I discuss the scaling…
