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 derive an exact functional renormalization group equation for the projectable version of Ho\v{r}ava-Lifshitz gravity. The flow equation encodes the gravitational degrees of freedom in terms of the lapse function, shift vector and spatial…
We derive renormalised finite functional flow equations for quantum field theories in real and imaginary time that incorporate scale transformations of the renormalisation conditions, hence implementing a flowing renormalisation. The flows…
Recently, the connections between gradient flow and renormalization group have been explored analytically and numerically. Gradient flow (when modified by a field rescaling) can be characterized as a continuous blocking transformation. In…
We derive an RG flow equation that is satisfied by the regularized partition function for noncritical strings in background fields. The flow refers to change in the position of a ``boundary'' in the liouville direction. The boundary is…
We present a new approach to coarse-graining of variables describing dust flow in GR. It is based on assigning quasi-local shear, twist and expansion to 2-dimensional surfaces with the help of isometric embeddings into the 3-dimensional…
Within the effective average action approach to quantum gravity, we recover the low energy effective action as derived in the effective field theory framework, by studying the flow of possibly non-local form factors that appear in the…
Quantum statistical mechanics is formulated as an integral over classical phase space. Some details of the commutation function for averages are discussed, as is the factorization of the symmetrization function used for the grand potential…
We formulate an effective-description framework for the dynamics of open quantum systems by extending the time-coarse-graining formalism to open systems. Our coarse-graining procedure efficiently removes high-frequency processes which are…
We study supersymmetric quantum mechanics with the functional RG formulated in terms of an exact and manifestly off-shell supersymmetric flow equation for the effective action. We solve the flow equation nonperturbatively in a systematic…
Functional renormalization group (FRG) is applied to the three-body scattering problem in the two-component fermionic system with an attractive contact interaction. We establish a new and correct flow equation on the basis of FRG and show…
We generalize our recently developed super-field functional renormalization group (RG) method involving both Fermi and Bose fields [F. Schuetz, L. Bartosch, and P. Kopietz, Phys. Rev. B 72, 035105 (2005)] to include the possibility that…
We use the Wetterich-equation to study the renormalization group flow of $f(R)$-gravity in a three-dimensional, conformally reduced setting. Building on the exact heat kernel for maximally symmetric spaces, we obtain a partial differential…
It is shown how to construct renormalization group flows of quantum field theories in real space, as opposed to the usual Wilsonian approach in momentum space. This is achieved by generalizing the multiscale entanglement renormalization…
We review the functional renormalization group (RG) approach to the BCS-BEC crossover for an ultracold gas of fermionic atoms. Formulated in terms of a scale-dependent effective action, the functional RG interpolates continuously between…
We consider a one-dimensional kinetic model of granular media in the case where the interaction potential is quadratic. Taking advan- tage of a simple first integral, we can use a reformulation (equivalent to the initial kinetic model for…

The so-called renormalization group (RG) method is applied to derive kinetic and transport equations from the respective microscopic equations. The derived equations include Boltzmann equation in classical mechanics, Fokker-Planck equation,…
We present a general frame to extend functional renormalization group (fRG) based computational schemes by using an exactly solvable interacting reference problem as starting point for the RG flow. The systematic expansion around this…
We develop an algorithmic, system-specific renormalization group (RG) procedure that is adapted from model reductions techniques from engineering control theory. The resulting "generalized" RG is a consistent generalization of the Wilsonian…
