We project the Wilson/Polchinski renormalization group equation onto its uniform external field dependent effective free energy and connected Green's functions. The result is a hierarchy of equations which admits a choice of "natural"…
We use a generalised real-time path formalism with properly regularised propagators based on Le Bellac and Mabilat \cite{belmab} and calculate the effective potential and the higher order derivative terms of the effective action in the case…

An optimized Rayleigh-Schr\"{o}dinger expansion scheme of solving the functional Schr\"odinger equation with an external source is proposed to calculate the effective potential beyond the Gaussian approximation. For a scalar field theory…
We present methods to constrain fermionic condensates on the level of the path integral, which grant access to the quantum effective potential in the infinite volume limit. In the case of a spontaneously broken symmetry, this potential…
The functional renormalization group (fRG) approach has the property that, in general, the flow equation for the two-particle vertex generates $\mathcal{O}(N^4)$ independent variables, where $N$ is the number of interacting states (e.g.…
It is argued that the presence of a nonanalytic term in the effective potential of the Ginzburg-Landau model is immaterial as far as the order of the superconductor-normal phase transition is concerned. To achieve agreement with the…
Quantum corrections to Thomas-Fermi (TF) theory are investigated for noninteracting one-dimensional fermions with known uniform semiclassical approximations to the density and kinetic energy. Their structure is analyzed, and contributions…
This work presents gauge-equivariant architectures for flow-based sampling in fermionic lattice field theories using pseudofermions as stochastic estimators for the fermionic determinant. This is the default approach in state-of-the-art…

Algorithms based on normalizing flows are emerging as promising machine learning approaches to sampling complicated probability distributions in a way that can be made asymptotically exact. In the context of lattice field theory,…
The relation between the Wilson-Polchinski and the Litim optimized ERGEs in the local potential approximation is studied with high accuracy using two different analytical approaches based on a field expansion: a recently proposed genuine…
I propose a new version of the Hierarchical Reference Theory of liquids. Two formalisms, one in the grand canonical ensemble, the other in the framework of statistical field theory are given in parallel. In the latter the theory is an…
Renormalization group equations play a central role in effective field theories, both maintaining perturbative control and allowing one to determine the correct low-energy phenomenology. In this work, we complete the one-loop…
The non-local dependence of the fermion determinant on the gauge field limits our ability of simulating Quantum Chromodynamics on the lattice. Here we present a factorization of the gauge field dependence of the fermion determinant based on…
Following the previously developed approach to the calculation of quantum corrections to the effective potential in arbitrary scalar field theories in the leading logarithmic approximation, we extended it to the next-to-leading order. Based…
We propose a modification of the non-perturbative renormalization-group (NPRG) which applies to lattice models. Contrary to the usual NPRG approach where the initial condition of the RG flow is the mean-field solution, the lattice NPRG uses…
We construct exact functional renormalization group (RG) flow equations for non-relativistic fermions in arbitrary dimensions, taking into account not only mode elimination but also the rescaling of the momenta, frequencies and the…
We have technically improved the non-perturbative renormalization method, proposed by Martinelli et al., by using quark momentum sources and sinks. Composite two-fermion operators up to three derivatives have been measured for Wilson…
