Using functional renormalization methods, we study the one-loop renormalization group evolution of theories with four scalars, at second order in the derivative expansion, in which electroweak symmetry is nonlinearly realized. In this…
We present a new class of polynomial-time algorithms for submodular function minimization (SFM), as well as a unified framework to obtain strongly polynomial SFM algorithms. Our algorithms are based on simple iterative methods for the…
A finite formulation of quantum field theory based on a system of differential equations reminiscent of the Callan-Symanzik equations is discussed. This system of equations was previously formulated in the bare language. We rederive it in a…
We present a rigorous and functorial quantization scheme for affine field theories, i.e., field theories where local spaces of solutions are affine spaces. The target framework for the quantization is the general boundary formulation,…
Very singular self-similar solutions of semilinear odd-order PDEs are studied on the basis of a Hermitian-type spectral theory for linear rescaled odd-order operators.
Using a simple solvable model, i.e., Higgs--Yukawa system with an infinite number of flavors, we explicitly demonstrate how a dimensional continuation of the $\beta$ function in two dimensional MS scheme {\it fails\/} to reproduce the…
Low-energy effective field theories (EFT) encode information about the physics at high energies--i.e., the high-energy theory (HET). To extract this information the EFT and the HET have to be matched to each other. At the one-loop level,…
We suggest a renewed view on non-renormalizable interactions treated perturbatively within a kinematically dependent renormalization procedure. It is based on the usual BPHZ R-operation which is equally applicable to any local QFT…
The blocked composite operators are defined in the one-component Euclidean scalar field theory, and shown to generate a linear transformation of the operators, the operator mixing. This transformation allows us to introduce the parallel…
Within the framework of algebraic quantum field theory, we propose a new method of constructing local generators of (global) gauge symmetries in field theoretic models, starting from the existence of unitary operators implementing locally…
This paper gives a complete selfcontained proof of our result announced in hep-th/9909126 showing that renormalization in quantum field theory is a special instance of a general mathematical procedure of extraction of finite values based on…
We consider a one-parameter family of piecewise isometries of a rhombus. The rotational component is fixed, and its coefficients belong to the quadratic number field $K=\mathbb{Q}(\sqrt{2})$. The translations depend on a parameter $s$ which…
The one-loop renormalization of the action for a set Dirac fermions and a set of scalars spanning an arbitrary manifold coupled via Yukawa-like and gauge interactions is presented. The computation is performed with functional methods and in…
The partial success of the block renormalization group techniques is analysed in terms of a functional operator which formalizes the idea of self-replicability of a system in terms of smaller blocks which are similar to the original. The…
We report on a comprehensive analysis of the renormalization of noncommutative \phi^4 scalar field theories on the Groenewold-Moyal (GM) plane. These scalar field theories are twisted Poincar\'e invariant. Our main results are that these…
For any given algebra of local observables in Minkowski space an associated scaling algebra is constructed on which renormalization group (scaling) transformations act in a canonical manner. The method can be carried over to arbitrary…
We consider the generalizations of the free U(N) and O(N) scalar conformal field theories to actions with higher powers of the Laplacian box^k, in general dimension d. We study the spectra, Verma modules, anomalies and OPE of these…
We further develop an algorithmic and diagrammatic computational framework for very general exact renormalization groups, where the embedded regularisation scheme, parametrised by a general cutoff function and infinitely many higher point…
We project the Wilson/Polchinski renormalization group equation onto its uniform external field dependent effective free energy and connected Green's functions. The result is a hierarchy of equations which admits a choice of "natural"…
We showed in part I (hep-th/9912092) that the Hopf algebra ${\cal H}$ of Feynman graphs in a given QFT is the algebra of coordinates on a complex infinite dimensional Lie group $G$ and that the renormalized theory is obtained from the…
