We improve on the description of the relationship that exists between critical clusters in thermal systems and intermittency near the onset of chaos in low-dimensional systems. We make use of the statistical-mechanical language of…

We study the 1d Ising model with long-range interactions decaying as $1/r^{1+s}$. The critical model corresponds to a family of 1d conformal field theories (CFTs) whose data depends nontrivially on $s$ in the range $1/2\leq s\leq 1$. The…

We embed a holographic model of an U(1) charged fluid with Galilean invariance in string theory and calculate its specific heat capacity and Prandtl number. Such theories are generated by a R-symmetry twist along a null direction of a N=1…

Renormalisation group approaches are tailor made for resolving the scale-dependence of quantum and statistical systems, and hence their phase structure and critical physics. Usually this advantage comes at the price of having to truncate…

Using results of the thermodynamic Bethe Ansatz approach and conformal perturbation theory we argue that the $\phi_{1,3}$-perturbation of a unitary minimal $(1+1)$-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) in the $D$-series of modular…

We study four dimensional SU(2) lattice gauge theory in the Hamiltonian formalism by Green's Function Monte Carlo methods. A trial ground state wave function is introduced to improve the configuration sampling and we discuss the interplay…

We investigate the monotonicity of the renormalization group (RG) flow from the perspectives of nonequilibrium thermodynamics. Applying the Martin-Siggia-Rose formalism to the Wilsonian RG transformation, we incorporate the RG flow…

Our community has a deep and sophisticated understanding of phase transitions and their universal scaling functions. We outline and advocate an ambitious program to use this understanding as an anchor for describing the surrounding phases.…

The Hamiltonian formulation of a plasma four-field fluid model that describes collisionless reconnection is presented. The formulation is noncanonical with a corresponding Lie-Poisson bracket. The bracket is used to obtain new independent…

In this paper we study the spectrum of long-range percolation graphs. The underlying geometry is given in terms of a finitely generated amenable group. We prove that the integrated density of states (IDS) or spectral distribution function…

We study a class of interface conformal field theories obtained by taking a large $N$ CFT and turning on a relevant double-trace deformation over half space. At low energies, this leads to a conformal interface separating two CFTs which are…

When conformal field theories (CFTs) are perturbed by marginally relevant deformations, renormalization group (RG) flows ensue that can be studied with perturbative methods, at least as long as they remain close to the original CFT. In this…

We calculate the ground-state energy, pair correlation function, static structure factor, and momentum density of the one-dimensional electron fluid at high density using variational quantum Monte Carlo simulation. For an infinitely thin…

Being interested in the compatibility of Asymptotic Safety with Hilbert space positivity (unitarity), we consider a local truncation of the functional RG flow which describes quantum gravity in $d>2$ dimensions and construct its limit of…

We use the functional renormalization group equation for quantum gravity to construct a non-perturbative flow equation for modified gravity theories of the form $S = \int d^dx \sqrt{g} f(R)$. Based on this equation we show that certain…

We develop a new systematic approach to quantum field theory that is designed to lead to physical states that rapidly converge in an expansion in free-particle Fock-space sectors. To make this possible, we use light-front field theory to…

We study certain small supersymmetry-breaking perturbations of a large class of strongly coupled four-dimensional R-symmetric renormalization group (RG) flows between superconformal field theories in the ultraviolet (UV) and the infrared…

We calculate numerically the renormalization group (RG) flow of lattice QCD in two-coupling space, $(\beta_{1\times 1},\beta_{1\times 2})$. This is the first explicit calculation of the RG flow of SU(3) gauge theory. From the RG flow,a…

I study some classes of RG flows in three dimensions that are classically conformal and have manifest g -> 1/g dualities. The RG flow interpolates between known (four-fermion, Wilson-Fischer, phi_3^6) and new interacting fixed points. These…

We study various holographic RG flow solutions involving warped asymptotically locally Euclidean (ALE) spaces of $A_{N-1}$ type. A two-dimensional RG flow from a UV (2,0) CFT to a (4,0) CFT in the IR is found in the context of (1,0) six…
