The non-perturbative renormalization-group approach is extended to lattice models, considering as an example a $\phi^4$ theory defined on a $d$-dimensional hypercubic lattice. Within a simple approximation for the effective action, we solve…
We review the rigorous work on many Fermions models which lead to the first constructions of interacting Fermi liquids in two dimensions, and allowed to prove that there are different scaling regimes in two dimensions, depending on the…
Over the last several years, there has been a resurgence of interest in using non-perturbative approximation methods based on Wilson's continuous renormalization group. In this lecture, I review progress particularly in the past year,…
We examine the precise connection between the exact renormalisation group with local couplings and the renormalisation of correlation functions of composite operators in scale-invariant theories. A geometric description of theory space…

Lattice regularization is a standard technique for the nonperturbative definition of a quantum theory of fields. Several approaches to the construction of a quantum theory of gravity adopt this technique either explicitly or implicitly. A…
The renormalization group method, more specifically the Wegner-Houghton equation, is used to find first order phase transitions in a simple scalar field theory with a polynomial potential. An improved definition of the running parameters…
A new efficient numerical algorithm for interacting fermion systems is proposed and examined in detail. The ground state is expressed approximately by a linear combination of numerically chosen basis states in a truncated Hilbert space. Two…
In this work, we investigate stochastic quasi-Newton methods for minimizing a finite sum of cost functions over a decentralized network. In Part I, we develop a general algorithmic framework that incorporates stochastic quasi-Newton…
We study the mathematical structure underlying the concept of locality which lies at the heart of classical and quantum field theory, and develop a machinery used to preserve locality during the renormalisation procedure. Viewing…
In this PhD thesis we discuss methods of recognizing finite groups by the structure of normalizers of certain 3-subgroups. We explain a method for characterizing groups using character theoretic and block theoretic methods and we use these…
A new technique is proposed to classify a topological field in abelian lattice gauge theories. We perform the classification by regarding the topological field as a local composite field of the gauge field tensor instead of the vector…
Let $f(x)$ be a separable polynomial over a local field. Montes algorithm computes certain approximations to the different irreducible factors of $f(x)$, with strong arithmetic properties. In this paper we develop an algorithm to improve…
We develop a new renormalization group approach to the large-N limit of matrix models. It has been proposed that a procedure, in which a matrix model of size (N-1) \times (N-1) is obtained by integrating out one row and column of an N…
In many applications of tomography, the acquired projections are either limited in number or contain a significant amount of noise. In these cases, standard reconstruction methods tend to produce artifacts that can make further analysis…
We study approximation and localized polynomial frames on a bounded double hyperbolic or conic surface and the domain bounded by such a surface and hyperplanes. The main work follows the framework developed recently in \cite{X21} for…
We analyze in some detail a recently proposed transfer matrix mean field approximation which yields the exact critical point for several two dimensional nearest neighbor Ising models. For the square lattice model we show explicitly that…
We consider a Callan-Symanzik and a Wilson Renormalization Group approach to the infrared problem for interacting fermions in one dimension with backscattering. We compute the third order (two-loop) approximation of the beta function using…
We compute, on the $(\lambda \Phi^4)_{1+1}$ model on the lattice, the soliton mass by means of two very different numerical methods. First, we make use of a ``creation operator'' formalism, measuring the decay of a certain correlation…
We propose a modification of the non-perturbative renormalization-group (NPRG) which applies to lattice models. Contrary to the usual NPRG approach where the initial condition of the RG flow is the mean-field solution, the lattice NPRG uses…
