We study the functional renormalization group of a three-dimensional tensorial Group Field Theory (GFT) with gauge group SU(2). This model generates (generalized) lattice gauge theory amplitudes, and is known to be perturbatively…
We combine two non-perturbative approaches, one based on the two-particle-irreducible (2PI) action, the other on the functional renormalization group (fRG), in an effort to develop new non-perturbative approximations for the field…
We describe a renormalization group transformation that is related to the breakup of golden invariant tori in Hamiltonian systems with two degrees of freedom. This transformation applies to a large class of Hamiltonians, is conceptually…
Renormalization group (RG) and resummation techniques have been used in $N$-component $\phi^4$ theories at fixed dimensions below four to determine the presence of non-trivial IR fixed points and to compute the associated critical…
The purpose of this paper is to study frames for a Hilbert space ${\cal H},$ having the form $\{T^n \varphi\}_{n=0}^\infty$ for some $\varphi \in {\cal H}$ and an operator $T: {\cal H} \to {\cal H}.$ We characterize the frames that have…
We apply the functional renormalization group approach to a $\mathcal{N}=1$ supersymmetric gauge model with one chiral superfield coupled to a vector $U(1)$ superfield. We find that the nonrenormalization theorem still works at leading…
Let $A$ be a finite set and $\phi:A^Z\to R$ be a locally constant potential. For each $\beta>0$ ("inverse temperature"), there is a unique Gibbs measure $\mu_{\beta\phi}$. We prove that, as $\beta\to+\infty$, the family…
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…
The stability of nonrelativistic fermionic systems to interactions is studied within the Renormalization Group framework. A brief introduction to $\phi^4$ theory in four dimensions and the path integral formulation for fermions is given.…
We investigate the quantum effects of the nonlocal gauge invariant operator $\frac{1}{{}{D}^{2}}{F}_{\mu \nu}\ast \frac{1}{{}{D}^{2}}{F}^{\mu \nu}$ in the noncommutative U(1) action and its consequences to the infrared sector of the theory.…
The Wilsonian renormalization group properties of the conformal factor of the metric are profoundly altered by the fact that it has a wrong-sign kinetic term. If couplings are chosen so that the quantum field theory exists on…
A nonconventional renormalization-group (RG) treatment close to and below four dimensions is used to explore, in a unified and systematic way, the low-temperature properties of a wide class of systems in the influence domain of their…
We study the renormalization of dimension four composite operators and the energy-momentum tensor in noncommutative complex scalar field theory. The proper operator basis is defined and it is proved that the bare composite operators are…
The recently proposed renormalization scheme based on the definition of field operators as operator valued distributions acting on specific test functions is shown to be very convenient in explicit calculations of physical observables…
In physics one attempts to infer the rules governing a system given only the results of imperfect measurements. Hence, microscopic theories may be effectively indistinguishable experimentally. We develop an operationally motivated procedure…
We develop a mechanism that enables supersymmetric Ward identities to be applied in non-supersymmetric theories. These identities are then used to streamline calculations in our target theories, potentially including phenomenological…
Flows of the couplings of a theory of an N-component (complex) scalar field coupled to electrodynamics is investigated using the functional renormalization group formalism in d dimensions in covariant gauges. We find charged fixed points…
We develop a quenched thermodynamic formalism for random dynamical systems generated by countably branched, piecewise-monotone mappings of the interval that satisfy a random covering condition. Given a random contracting potential $\varphi$…
In this thesis, we present a novel method combining energy-based finite-size scaling with tensor network renormalization (TNR) to study phase transitions in lattice models. This approach effectively calculates running coupling constants and…
We reconsider the problem of the static thermal roughening of an elastic manifold at the critical dimension $d=2$ in a periodic potential, using a perturbative Functional Renormalization Group approach. Our aim is to describe the effective…
