It is shown that the renormalization group turns to be a symmetry group in a theory initially formulated in a space of scale-dependent functions, i.e, those depending on both the position $x$ and the resolution $a$. Such theory, earlier…
We review the role played by long-distance symmetries within the context of the similarity renormalization group approach. This is based on phase-shift-preserving continuous unitary transformations that evolve Hamiltonians with a cutoff on…
In a system of noisy self-propelled particles with interactions that favor directional alignment, collective motion will appear if the density of particles is beyond a critical density. Starting with a reduced model for collective motion,…
The functional renormalisation group is applied to the effective action for scattering of two nonrelativistic fermions. The resulting physical effective action is shown to contain the correct threshold singularity. The corresponding "bare"…

Branchina et al and Consoli have recently shown that the one-loop effective potential (1LEP) of massless lambda-phi**4 theory can be renormalized in two distinct ways. One of these is the conventional renormalization of Coleman and…
We discuss conceptual aspects of renormalization in the context of effective field theories for the two-nucleon system. It is shown that, contrary to widespread belief, renormalization scheme dependence of the scattering amplitude can only…
There are reasons to believe that the Standard Model is only an effective theory, with new Physics lying beyond it. Supersymmetric extensions are one possibility: they address some of the Standard Model's shortcomings, such as the…
We have developed a very efficient numerical algorithm of the strong disorder renormalization group method to study the critical behaviour of the random transverse-field Ising model, which is a prototype of random quantum magnets. With this…
We revisit certain subtleties of renormalization that arise when one derives a low-energy effective action by integrating out the heavy fields of a more complete theory. Usually these subtleties are circumvented by matching some physical…
We consider the problem of improving the effective potential in mass independent schemes, as e.g. the $\MSbar$ or $\DRbar$ renormalization scheme, in the presence of an arbitrary number of fields with $\phi$-dependent masses $M_i(\phi_c)$.…
We study the P\"oschl-Teller potential $V(x) = \alpha^2 g_s \sinh^{-2}(\alpha x) + \alpha^2 g_c \cosh^{-2}(\alpha x)$, for every value of the dimensionless parameters $g_s$ and $g_c$, including the less usual ranges for which the regular…
We construct a manifestly gauge invariant Exact Renormalization Group for SU(N) Yang-Mills theory, in a form suitable for calculations without gauge fixing at any order of perturbation theory. The effective cutoff is incorporated via a…
We probe the influence of Lorentz-violating mechanism, treated exactly, on the radiative quantum corrections to critical exponents for massive $q$-deformed O($N$) $\lambda\phi^{4}$ scalar field theories. We attain that task by employing…
The exact renormalisation group equation is studied for a two-dimensional theory with exponential interaction and a background charge at infinity. The motivation for studying this interaction is the flow between unitary minimal models…
The renormalization group (RG) is used in order to obtain the RG improved effective potential in curved spacetime. This potential is explicitly calculated for the Yukawa model and for scalar electrodynamics, i.e. theories with several…
We introduce tropical scalar field theory as a model for renormalizable quantum field theory, and examine in detail the case of quartic self-interaction and internal $O(N)$ symmetry. This model arises in a formally zero-dimensional limit of…
