We present a new exact renormalization approach for quantum lattice models leading to long-range interactions. The renormalization scheme is based on wavelets with an infinite support in such a way that the excitation spectrum at the fixed…
We consider an one-dimensional lattice system of unbounded and continuous spins. The Hamiltonian consists of a perturbed strictly-convex single-site potential and with longe-range interaction. We show that if the interactions decay…

We investigate the renormalization group (RG) flow of SU(3) lattice gauge theory in a two coupling space with couplings $\beta_{11}$ and $\beta_{12}$ corresponding to $1\times 1$ and $1\times 2$ loops respectively. Extensive numerical…
Fixed points of the 2d renormalization group flow are known to correspond to tree level string vacua. We discuss how the renormalization group (or "sigma model") approach can be extended to the string loop level. The central role of the…
