We present a nonperturbative renormalization group solution of the Gell-Mann--Levy $\sigma$-model which was originally proposed as a phenomenological description of the dynamics of nucleons and mesons. In our version of the model the…
If supersymmetric particles are discovered, an important problem will be to determine how supersymmetry has been broken. At collider energies, supersymmetry breaking can be parameterised by soft supersymmetry breaking parameters. Several…
We revisit the various measures of naturalness for models of weak scale supersymmetry including 1. electroweak (EW) naturalness, 2. naturalness via sensitivity to high scale parameters (EENZ/BG), 3. sensitivity of Higgs soft term due to…
Based upon the intrinsic relation between the divergent lower point functions and the convergent higher point ones in the renormalizable quantum field theories, we propose a new method for regularization and renormalization in QFT. As an…
A perturbative renormalization group method is used to obtain steady-state density profiles of a particle non-conserving asymmetric simple exclusion process. This method allows us to obtain a globally valid solution for the density profile…
An exact renormalization group equation is derived for the free energy of matrix models. The renormalization group equation turns out to be nonlinear for matrix models, as opposed to linear for vector models. An algorithm for determining…
The Nelson-Seiberg theorem dictates conditions for the spontaneous breaking of the supersymmetry in Wess-Zumino models with generic, possibly non-renormalizable, superpotential; the existence of the R-symmetry is necessary while the…
It has been previously shown that calculation of renormalization group (RG) functions of the scalar \phi^4 theory reduces to the analysis of thermodynamic properties of the Ising model. Using high-temperature expansions for the latter, RG…
We reformulate slightly Russell's notion of typicality, so as to eliminate its circularity and make it applicable to elements of any first-order structure. We argue that the notion parallels Martin-L\"{o}f (ML) randomness, in the sense that…
In renormalized field theories there are in general one or few fixed points which are accessible by the renormalization-group flow. They can be identified from the fixed-point equations. Exceptionally, an infinite family of fixed points…
We describe a broad class of 4D F-theory models in which an $E_7$ gauge group is broken through fluxes to the Standard Model gauge group. These models are ubiquitous in the 4D F-theory landscape and can arise from flux breaking of most…
We present a simple model for describing the dynamics of the interaction between a homogeneous population or society, and the natural resources and reserves that the society needs for its survival. The model is formulated in terms of…
We analyze some features of the perturbative quantization of Chern-Simons theory (CST) in the Landau gauge. In this gauge the theory is known to be perturbatively finite. We consider the renormalization scheme in which the renormalized…
Protected natural areas are regions that have been minimally affected by human activities such as urbanization, agriculture, and other human interventions. To better understand and map the naturalness of these areas, machine learning models…
Renormalization plays an important role in the theoretically and mathematically careful analysis of models in condensed-matter physics. I review selected results about correlated-fermion systems, ranging from mathematical theorems to…
Owing to the analogy between the Connes-Kreimer theory of the renormalization and the integrable systems, we derive the differential equations of the unit mass for the renormalized character $\phi_+$ and the counter term $\phi_-$. We give…
In this brief article I show how the notion of coarse graining and the Renormalization Group enter naturally in the dynamics of genetic systems, in particular in the presence of recombination. I show how the latter induces a dynamics…
We show with several examples that renormalization group (RG) theory can be used to understand singular and reductive perturbation methods in a unified fashion. Amplitude equations describing slow motion dynamics in nonequilibrium phenomena…
Two different models exhibiting self-organized criticality are analyzed by means of the dynamic renormalization group. Although the two models differ by their behavior under a parity transformation of the order parameter, it is shown that…
To resum large logarithms in multi-scale problems a generalization of $\MS$ is introduced allowing for as many renormalization scales as there are generic scales in the problem. In the new \lq\lq minimal multi-scale subtraction scheme''…
