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…
Invariant classes under parabolic and near-parabolic renormalization have proved extremely useful for studying the dynamics of polynomials. The first such class was introduced by Inou-Shishikura to study quadratic polynomials; their…
Nontrivial fixed points of the hierarchical renormalization group are computed by numerically solving a system of quadratic equations for the coupling constants. This approach avoids a fine tuning of relevant parameters. We study the…
We prove that two topologically conjugate bi-critical circle maps whose signatures are the same, and whose renormalizations converge together exponentially fast in the $C^2$-topology, are $C^1$ conjugate.
We present norm criteria for the existence of anti-automorphisms, as well as explicit constructions of anti-automorphisms, both on cyclic and generalized cyclic algebras. Our approach describes anti-automorphisms as polynomial maps and…
We derive a new renormalization group to calculate a non-trivial critical exponent of the divergent correlation length which gives a universality classification of essential singularities in infinite-order phase transitions. This method…
In recent years, the usual BPHZ algorithm for renormalization in perturbative quantum field theory has been interpreted, after dimensional regularization, as a Birkhoff decomposition of characters on the Hopf algebra of Feynman graphs, with…
Exact Renormalization Group techniques are applied to supersymmetric models in order to get some insights into the low energy effective actions of such theories. Starting from the ultra-violet finite mass deformed N=4 supersymmetric…
Let $k$ be a field of arbitrary characteristic, $A$ be a domain and $K=\mathrm{frac}(A)$. Then (1) All exponential maps of $k^{[3]}$ are rigid, and we give a necessary and sufficient condition for the triangularity of $\delta \in…
A cubic polynomial $P$ with a non-repelling fixed point $b$ is said to be \emph{immediately renormalizable} if there exists a (connected) quadratic-like invariant filled Julia set $K^*$ such that $b\in K^*$. In that case exactly one…
In this short note, we give a sketch of a new proof of the exponential contraction of the Feigenbaum renormalization operator in the hybrid class of the Feigenbaum fixed point. The proof uses the non existence of invariant line fields in…
We study elastic systems such as interfaces or lattices, pinned by quenched disorder. To escape triviality as a result of ``dimensional reduction'', we use the functional renormalization group. Difficulties arise in the calculation of the…
We present an inverse problem which uses the renormalized area functional on minimal submanifolds to recover the expansion of asymptotically hyperbolic, conformally compact metrics which are partially even to high order. We use a rigidity…
A particular choice of renormalization, within the simplifications provided by the non-perturbative property of Effective Locality, leads to a completely finite, renormalized theory of QCD, in which all correlation functions can, in…
Two proofs of the Central Limit Theorem using a renormalization group approach are presented. The first proof is conducted under a third moment assumption and shows that a suitable renormalization group map is a contraction over the space…
In this paper, we explore the period tripling and period quintupling renormalizations below $C^2$ class of unimodal maps. We show that for a given proper scaling data there exists a renormalization fixed point on the space of piece-wise…
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…
Let K be an algebraically closed field of characteristic zero, endowed with a complete nonarchimedean norm. Let X be a K-rigid analytic variety and \Sigma a semianalytic subset of X. Then the closure of \Sigma in X with respect to the…
We show that limits for the critical exponent tending to \infty exist in both critical circle homeomorphisms of golden mean rotation number and Fibonacci circle coverings. Moreover, they are the same. The limit map is not analytic at the…
Various formulations of the exact renormalization group can be compared in the perturbative domain, in which we have reliable expressions for regularization-independent (universal) quantities. We consider the renormalization of the…
