We present a novel method for precisely determining the running QCD coupling constant $\alpha_s(Q^2)$ over a wide range of $Q^2$ from event shapes for electron-positron annihilation measured at a single annihilation energy $\sqrt{s}$. The…

A relation between geometric phases and criticality of spin chains are studied by using the quantum renormalization-group approach. We have shown how the geometric phase evolve as the size of the system becomes large, i.e., the finite size…

We suggest that at any given order of Feynman diagram calculation all renormalization group (RG)-predictable terms should be resummed to all-orders. This ``complete'' RG-improvement (CORGI) serves to separate the perturbation series into…

The renormalization group (RG) is known to provide information about radiative corrections beyond the order in perturbation theory to which one has calculated explicitly. We first demonstrate the effect of the renormalization scheme used on…

Perturbation theory, as well as most thermal field resummation methods widely used to study finite-temperature quantum field theories, presents a non-negligible renormalization scale dependence. To address this limitation, we propose an…
