Renormalizability of the (minimal) single-fermion QED extension is investigated at all orders of perturbation theory in the framework of algebraic renormalization, a regularization-independent method. Relative to the standard QED, new…
Using an infinitesimal approach, this work addresses the renormalization problem to deal with the ultraviolet divergences arising in quantum field theory. Under the assumption that the action has already been renormalized to yield an…
This paper develops some deeper consequences of an extended definition, proposed previously by the author, of pseudo-differential operators that are of type $1,1$ in H\"ormander's sense. Thus, it contributes to the long-standing problem of…
We present a generalization of the recently proposed variational cluster perturbation theory to extended Hubbard models at half filling with repulsive nearest neighbor interaction. The method takes into account short-range correlations…
We extend the results on the RG flow in the next to leading order to the case of the supersymmetric minimal models SM_p for p>> 1. We explain how to compute the NS and Ramond fields conformal blocks in the leading order in 1/p and follow…
In conformal field theory, momentum eigenstates can be parameterized by a pair of real spinors, in terms of which special conformal transformations take a simpler form. This well-known fact allows to express 2-point functions of primary…
Trivially-acting symmetries in two-dimensional conformal field theory include twist fields of dimension zero which are local topological operators. We investigate the consequences of regarding these operators as part of the global symmetry…
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…
In this paper we give a general family of conformal invariants associated to bordered Riemann surfaces endowed with boundary parametrizations, or equivalently compact surfaces endowed with conformal maps. Each invariant is specified by a…
We explore the possibilities of using the fermionic functional renormalization group to compute the phase diagram of systems with competing instabilities. In order to overcome the ubiquituous divergences encountered in RG flows, we propose…
We study refinements between spectral resolutions in an arbitrary II$_1$ factor $\M$ and obtain diffuse (maximal) refinements of spectral resolutions. We construct models of operators with respect to diffuse spectral resolutions. As an…
In the q-deformed theory the perturbation approach can be expressed in terms of two pairs of undeformed position and momentum operators. There are two configuration spaces. Correspondingly there are two q-perturbation Hamiltonians, one…
The operad of moulds is realized in terms of an operational calculus of formal integrals (continuous formal power series). This leads to many simplifications and to the discovery of various suboperads. In particular, we prove a conjecture…
We present an exploration of the rich theoretical connections between several classes of regularized models, network flows, and recent results in submodular function theory. This work unifies key aspects of these problems under a common…
We compute the correlation functions of irregular Gaiotto states appearing in the colliding limit of the Liouville theory by using "regularizing" conformal transformations mapping the irregular (coherent) states to regular vertex operators…
The immediate purpose of the paper was neither to review the basic definitions of percolation theory nor to rehearse the general physical notions of universality and renormalization (an important technique to be described in Part Two). It…
Just as exactly marginal operators allow to deform a conformal field theory along the space of theories known as the conformal manifold, appropriate operators on conformal defects allow for deformations of the defects. When a defect breaks…
In $\mathcal{N}=1$ superconformal theories in four dimensions the two-point function of superconformal multiplets is known up to an overall constant. A superconformal multiplet contains several conformal primary operators, whose two-point…
In this paper we study the right differentiability of a parametric infimum function over a parametric set defined by equality constraints. We present a new theorem with sufficient conditions for the right differentiability with respect to…
In this paper, we mainly focus on formal deformation theory of module homomorphisms. We first introduce the cohomology of module homomorphisms and study formal one-parameter deformation. We obtain some properties about obstructions. Then we…
