Fermion bilinear operators of mass dimension~$3$, such as the axial-vector and vector currents, the pseudo-scalar and scalar densities, whose normalizations are fixed by Ward--Takahashi (WT) relations, are related to small flow-time…
We examine the renormalization group flow in the vicinity of the free-field fixed point for effective field theories in the presence of a constant, nondynamical vector potential background. The interaction with this vector potential…
Machine learning techniques, in particular the so-called normalizing flows, are becoming increasingly popular in the context of Monte Carlo simulations as they can effectively approximate target probability distributions. In the case of…
The derivative expansion of the Wilsonian renormalization group generates additional terms in the effective beta-functions not present in the perturbative approach. Applied to the nonlinear sigma model, to lowest order the vanishing of the…
The a-function is a proposed quantity defined for quantum field theories which has a monotonic behaviour along renormalisation group flows, being related to the beta-functions via a gradient flow equation involving a positive definite…
Within the context of the functional renormalization group flow of gravity, we suggest that a generic f(R) ansatz (i.e. not truncated to any specific form, polynomial or not) for the effective action plays a role analogous to the local…
The well-established effective action and effective potential framework from the quantum field theory domain is adapted and successfully applied to classical field theories of the Doi and Peliti type for diffusion controlled reactions.…
The gradient flow exponentially suppresses ultraviolet field fluctuations and removes ultraviolet divergences (up to a multiplicative fermionic wavefunction renormalization). It can be used to describe real-space Wilsonian renormalization…
The functional renormalization group has become a widely used tool for the analysis of the leading low-temperature correlations in weakly to moderately coupled many-fermion lattice systems. A bottleneck for quantitatively more precise…
The idea of the functional renormalization group and one-loop improved renormalization group flows are reviewed. The associated flow equations and nonperturbative approximations schemes for its solutions are discussed. These techniques are…
The non-perturbative Wegner-Houghton renormalization group is analyzed by the local potential approximation in O(N) scalar theories in d-dimensions $(3\leq d\leq 4)$. The leading critical exponents \nu are calculated in order to investigate…
The MFA approach for simulations with dynamical fermions in lattice gauge theories allows in principle to explore the parameters space of the theory (e.g. the $\beta, m$ plane for the study of chiral condensate in QED) without the need of…
Within the superfield formalism, we study the renormalization group improvement of the effective superpotential for the ${\cal N}=2$ Chern-Simons-matter theory, explicitly obtain the improved effective potential and discuss the minima of…
The previously developed renormalizable perturbative 1/N-expansion in higher dimensional scalar field theories is extended to gauge theories with fermions. It is based on the $1/N_f$-expansion and results in a logarithmically divergent…
This manuscript aims at giving our new advance on the functional renormalization group applied to tensorial group field theory. It is based on a series of our three papers [arXiv:1803.09902], [arXiv:1809.00247] and [arXiv:1809.06081]. We…
Analyzed is the effective potential of D-dimensional thermodynamic Gross-Neveu model (defined by large-N leading order, $2\leq D<4$) under constant electromagnetic field ($\vec{E}\cdot\vec{B}=0$). The potential is derived from a thermal…
We discuss the relation between functional renormalization group (FRG) and local renormalization group (LRG), focussing on the two dimensional case as an example. We show that away from criticality the Wess-Zumino action is described by a…
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…
Local n-particle vertex functions represent the crucial ingredient for all diagrammatic extensions of dynamical mean field theory (DMFT). Hitherto their application has been restricted -with a few exceptions- to the n=2-particle vertex…
