We start by discussing some theoretical issues of renormalization group transformations and Monte Carlo renormalization group technique. A method to compute the anomalous dimension is proposed and investigated. As an application, we find…
The Snyder model is an example of noncommutative spacetime admitting a fundamental length scale $\beta$ and invariant under Lorentz transformations, that can be interpreted as a realization of the doubly special relativity axioms. Here, we…
The "triviality" of $(\lambda\Phi^4)_4$ quantum field theory means that the renormalized coupling $\lambda_R$ vanishes for infinite cutoff. That result inherently conflicts with the usual perturbative approach, which begins by postulating a…
For arbitrary four-dimensional quantum field theories with scalars and fermions, renormalisation group equations in the $\overline{\text{MS}}$ scheme are investigated at three-loop order in perturbation theory. Collecting literature…
The $\beta$ function for a scalar field theory describes the dependence of the coupling constant on the renormalization mass scale. This dependence is affected by the choice of regularization scheme. I explicitly relate the…
We present a new and exploratory approach to determine the $\Delta\beta(\beta)$-shift in the $O(3)$ nonlinear $\sigma$-model. The method is based on a scaling hypothesis for a free energy difference, which is assumed to be valid in a…
Conventional renormalization methods in statistical physics and lattice quantum field theory assume a flat metric background. We outline here a generalization of such methods to models on discretized spaces without metric background.…
We study the non-perturbative renormalisation of quantum gravity in four dimensions. Taking care to disentangle physical degrees of freedom, we observe the topological nature of conformal fluctuations arising from the functional measure.…
The renormalization group is used to improve the effective potential of massive ${\rm O}(N)$ symmetric $\phi^4$ theory. Explicit results are given at the two-loop level.
This work is the result of the ideas developed by Ken Yoshida about the possibility of extending the range of applications of the matrix model approach to the computation of the holomorphic superpotential of the beta-deformed N=4 super…
$\lambda\varphi^4$ theory at finite temperature suffers from infrared divergences near the temperature at which the symmetry is restored. These divergences are handled using renormalization group methods. Flow equations which use a fiducial…
We analyze the model of a self-interacting $\phi^4_{\star}$ scalar field theory in Snyder-de Sitter space. After analytically computing the one-loop beta functions {in the small noncommutativity and curvature limit}, we solve numerically…
The asymptotic behavior of the effective mass $m_{\rm eff}(\Lambda)$ of the so-called Nelson model in quantum field theory is considered, where $\Lambda$ is an ultraviolet cutoff parameter of the model. Let $m$ be the bare mass of the…
A thorough analysis is presented of the class of central fields of force that exhibit: (i) dimensional transmutation and (ii) rotational invariance. Using dimensional regularization, the two-dimensional delta-function potential and the…
We study the renormalizable abelian vector-field models in the presence of the Wess-Zumino interaction with the pseudoscalar matter. The renormalizability is achieved by supplementing the standard kinetic term of vector fields with higher…
We present an overview of the different renormalization proofs of the non commutative $\phi_4^{\star 4}$ model. This paper is a contribution to the MemPhys project.
The renormalized trajectory of massless $\phi^4$-theory on four dimensional Euclidean space-time is investigated as a renormalization group invariant curve in the center manifold of the trivial fixed point, tangent to the…
We show that the noncommutativity of space-time destroys the renormalizability of the 1/N expansion of the O(N) Gross-Neveu model. A similar statement holds for the noncommutative nonlinear sigma model. However, we show that, up to the…
The non-conserved $\phi^4$ model defined by a Langevin equation with external non-white noise is studied by means of the Dynamic Renormalization Group. The correlation time of the noise changes the critical point location but does not…
One-dimensional massive quantum particles (or 1+1-dimensional random walks) with short-ranged multi-particle interactions are studied by exact renormalization group methods. With repulsive pair forces, such particles are known to scale as…
