The problem considered here is the determination of the hamiltonian of a first quantized nonrelativistic particle by the help of some measurements of the location with a finite resolution. The resulting hamiltonian depends on the resolution…
We present an overview of the construction and testing of actions for SU(3) gauge theory which are approximate fixed points of renormalization group equations (at $\beta\rightarrow \infty$). Such actions are candidates for use in numerical…
A new block spin renormalization group transformation for SU(N) gauge models is proposed near the non-trivial fixed point in perturbation theory and thereby the expectation values of various Wilson loops on the renormalized trajectory near…
We continue the study of the renormalization group and decoupling of massive fields in curved space, started in the previous article and analyse the higher derivative sector of the vacuum metric-dependent action of the Standard Model. The…
In recent years, some interesting investigations of the non-perturbative renormalization group equations for tensorial group field theories have been done in the truncation method, and completely discarding the Ward identities from their…
The motivation and the challenge in applying the renormalization group for systems with several scaling regimes is briefly outlined. The four dimensional $\phi^4$ model serves as an example where a nontrivial low energy scaling regime is…
We carry out a field-theoretical renormalization group procedure based on the Callan-Symanzik equation to calculate the detailed flow for the (multi) two-channel Kondo model and its compactified versions. In doing so, we go beyond the…
Effective potential for scalar $\lambda\phi^4$ theory is obtained using the exact renormalization group method which includes both the usual one-loop contribution as well as the dominant higher loop effects. Our numerical calculation…
Although well described by mean-field theory in the thermodynamic limit, scaling has long been puzzling for finite systems in high dimensions. This raised questions about the efficacy of the renormalization group and foundational concepts…
Percolation refers to an interesting class of problems related to the properties of disordered systems, usually formulated in terms of objects randomly placed on an underlying lattice or continuum. Despite the simplicity of the setup, most…
We compute the perturbative expansion of the Lattice SU(3) plaquette to beta^(-10) order. The result is found to be consistent both with the expected renormalon behaviour and with finite size effects on top of that.
The Wilsonian exact renormalization group gives a natural framework in which ultraviolet and infrared divergences can be treated separately. In massless QED we introduce, as the only mass parameter, a renormalization scale $\L_R > 0$. We…
A perturbative renormalization group method is used to obtain steady-state density profiles of a particle non-conserving asymmetric simple exclusion process. This method allows us to obtain a globally valid solution for the density profile…
The minimization of the action of a QFT with a constraint dictated by the block averaging procedure is an important part of Ba{\l}aban's approach to renormalization. It is particularly interesting for QFTs with non-trivial target spaces,…
Within the exact renormalisation group, the scaling solutions for O(N) symmetric scalar field theories are studied to leading order in the derivative expansion. The Gaussian fixed point is examined for d>2 dimensions and arbitrary infrared…
On the example of the three-dimensional Ising model, we show that nonperturbative renormalization group equations allow one to obtain very accurate critical exponents. Implementing the order $\partial^4$ of the derivative expansion leads to…

We give an introduction to renormalisation, focusing first on a pedagogical description of fundamental concepts of the procedure and its features, then we introduce the renormalisation group and its equations. We discuss then the case of…
