We write a Renormalization Group (RG) equation for the function f in a theory of gravity in the f(R) truncation. Our equation differs from previous ones due to the exponential parametrization of the quantum fluctuations and to the choice of…

Renormalisation group approaches are tailor made for resolving the scale-dependence of quantum and statistical systems, and hence their phase structure and critical physics. Usually this advantage comes at the price of having to truncate…
I am showing how the ideas behind the renormalisation group can be generalised in order to produce the desired reduction in the degrees of freedom other that the ones considered up to now. Instead of looking only at the renormalisation…

In the O(N) model for the large N expansion one needs resummation which makes the renormalization of the model difficult. In the paper it is discussed, how can one perform a consistent perturbation theory at zero as well as at finite…

We discuss some higher-loop studies of renormalization-group flows and fixed points in various quantum field theories.
The $\beta$-functions describe how couplings run under the renormalization group flow in field theories. In general, all couplings that respect the symmetry and locality are generated under the renormalization group flow, and the exact…

These lectures are centered around a specific problem, the effect of weak repulsive interactions on the transition temperature $T_c$ of a Bose gas. This problem provides indeed a beautiful illustration of many of the techniques which have…
We study a proper-time renormalisation group, which is based on an operator cut-off regularisation of the one-loop effective action. The predictive power of this approach is constrained because the flow is not an exact one. We compare it to…
An exact functional renormalization group flow equation is derived for the divergence functional which is a generalization of the Kullback-Leibler divergence to quantum field theories in the Euclidean domain. It compares distributions with…
