We study how the Gaussian multiplicative chaos (GMC) measures $\mu^\gamma$ corresponding to the 2D Gaussian free field change when $\gamma$ approaches the critical parameter $2$. In particular, we show that as $\gamma\to 2^{-}$,…
We study scaling and renormalization in two dimensional quantum gravity in a covariant framework. After reviewing the definition of a proper path integral measure, we use scaling arguments to rederive the KPZ relations, the fractal…
We derive an effective field theory for general chaotic two-dimensional conformal field theories with a large central charge. The theory is a specific and calculable instance of a more general framework recently proposed in [1]. We discuss…
Gaussian Multiplicative Chaos (GMC) is informally defined as a random measure $e^{\gamma X} \mathrm{d} x$ where $X$ is Gaussian field on $\mathbb R^d$ (or an open subset of it) whose correlation function is of the form $ K(x,y)= \log…
We determine the exact threshold of the extended Seiberg bound for the existence of correlation functions in the boundary Liouville conformal field theory in the unit disk. In probabilistic terms, our result is a toolbox yielding the…
Results of perturbation theory in quantum field theory generally depend on the renormalization scheme that is in use. In particular, they depend on the scale. We try to make perturbation theory scheme invariant by re-expanding with respect…
We extend the method of differential renormalization to massive quantum field theories treating in particular $\ph4$-theory and QED. As in the massless case, the method proves to be simple and powerful, and we are able to find, in…
Quantum theory of the gravitation in the causal approach is studied up to the second order of perturbation theory. We prove gauge invariance and renormalizability in the second order of perturbation theory for the pure gravity system…
We review the techniques used to renormalize quantum field theories at several loop orders. This includes the techniques to systematically extract the infinities in a Feynman integral and the implementation of the algorithm within computer…
Constraints on cosmological parameters from large-scale structure have traditionally been obtained from two-point statistics. However, non-linear structure formation renders these statistics insufficient in capturing the full information…
Quantum theory of 2d gravity is examined by including a special quantum correction, which corresponds to the open string loop corrections and provides a new conformal anomaly for the corresponding $\sigma$ model. This anomaly leads to the…
We consider powers of the absolute value of the characteristic polynomial of Haar distributed random orthogonal or symplectic matrices, as well as powers of the exponential of its argument, as a random measure on the unit circle minus small…
Gauge fields in exotic representations of the Lorentz group in D dimensions - i.e. ones which are tensors of mixed symmetry corresponding to Young tableaux with arbitrary numbers of rows and columns - naturally arise through massive string…
A perturbative renormalization group is formulated for the study of Hamiltonian light-front field theory near a critical Gaussian fixed point. The only light-front renormalization group transformations found that can be approximated by…
It is demonstrated that decimation of the one dimensional Ising model, with periodic boundary conditions, results in a non-linear renormalisation transformation for the couplings which can lead to chaotic behaviour when the couplings are…
The transition from arbitrary to chaotic fluctuation properties in quantum systems is studied in a random matrix model. It is assumed that the Hamiltonian can be written as the sum of an arbitrary and a chaos producing part. The Gaussian…
New proves of decoupling of massive fields in several quantum field theories are derived in the effective Lagrangian approach based on Wilson renormalization group. In the most interesting case of gauge theories with spontaneous symmetry…
We study perturbative general relativity with a two-form and a dilaton using the double field theory formulation which features explicit index factorisation at the Lagrangian level. Explicit checks to known tree level results are performed.…
We study the total mass of high points in a random model for the Riemann-Zeta function. We consider the same model as in [8], [2], and build on the convergence to 'Gaussian' multiplicative chaos proved in [14]. We show that the total mass…
We formulate a holographic description of effects of disorder in conformal field theories based on the replica method and the AdS/CFT correspondence. Starting with $n$ copies of conformal field theories, randomness with a gaussian…
