We employ the machinery of smooth scaling and coarse-graining of observables, developed recently by us in the context of so-called fluctuation operators (inspired by prior work of Verbeure et al) to make a rigorous renormalisation group…
We consider the emergence of large-scale cosmological expansion in scalar-tensor theories of gravity. This is achieved by modelling sub-horizon regions of space-time as weak-field expansions around Minkowski space, and then subsequently…
A new method of constructing a weak coupling expansion of two dimensional (2D) models with an unbroken continuous symmetry is developed. The method is based on an analogy with the abelian XY model, respects the Mermin-Wagner (MW) theorem…
Sample Space Reducing (SSR) processes are simple stochastic processes that offer a new route to understand scaling in path-dependent processes. Here we define a cascading process that generalises the recently defined SSR processes and is…
Using the machinery of smooth scaling and coarse-graining of observables, developed recently in the context of so-called fluctuation operators (originally developed by Verbeure et al), we extend this approach to a rigorous renormalisation…
We formulate a scalar realization of Sciama's Machian programme within the general Bergmann-Wagoner class of scalar--tensor gravity. Starting from a universally conformally coupled matter sector, we rewrite the field equations in terms of…
The Schrodinger equation with a two-dimensional delta-function potential is a simple example of an asymptotically free theory that undergoes dimensional transmutation. Renormalization requires the introduction of a mass scale, which can be…
In this article we give a detailed discussion of the mass perturbation theory of the massive Schwinger model. After discussing some general features and briefly reviewing the exact solution of the massless case, we compute the vacuum energy…
We generalize Gopakumar's microscopic derivation of Witten diagrams in large N free quantum field theory [1] to interacting theories in perturbative expansion. For simplicity we consider a matrix scalar field with $\Phi^h$ interaction in d…
Scalar field theories with $\mathbb{Z}_{2}$-symmetry are the traditional playground of critical phenomena. In this work these models are studied using functional renormalization group (FRG) equations at order $\partial^2$ of the derivative…
Analytic phenomenological scaling is carried out for the random field Ising model in general dimensions using a bar geometry. Domain wall configurations and their decorated profiles and associated wandering and other exponents…
Many stochastic complex systems are characterized by the fact that their configuration space doesn't grow exponentially as a function of the degrees of freedom. The use of scaling expansions is a natural way to measure the asymptotic growth…
We want to establish the basic properties of a scale invariant cosmology, that also accounts for the hypothesis of scale invariance of the empty space at large scales. We write the basic analytical properties of the scale invariant…
A new class of truncation schemes of delta expansion on the lattice is studied. We show that the order of expansion in delta which is introduced as the dilation parameter can be taken large enough and the result gives rise to the Borel…
We extend the recently introduced setting of coherent differentiation for taking into account not only differentiation, but also Taylor expansion in categories which are not necessarily (left)additive. The main idea consists in extending…
We study the finite-size scaling behaviour at the critical point, resulting from the addition of a homogeneous size-dependent perturbation, decaying as an inverse power of the system size. The scaling theory is first formulated in a general…
A recently developed variational resummation technique incorporating renormalization group properties has been shown to solve the scale dependence problem that plagues the evaluation of thermodynamical quantities, e.g., within the framework…
We prove that the singularity structure of all n-point distributions of a state of a generalised real free scalar field in curved spacetime can be estimated if the two-point distribution is of Hadamard form. In particular this applies to…
We study corrections to the scaling limit of subcritical long-range Ising models with (super)-summable interactions on $\mathbb{Z}^d$. For a wide class of models, the scaling limit is known to be white noise, as shown by Newman (1980). In…
A perturbative description of Large Scale Structure is a cornerstone of our understanding of the observed distribution of matter in the universe. Renormalization is an essential and defining step to make this description physical and…
