Some basic concepts are discussed to derive renormalisation factors of local lattice operators relevant to deep inelastic structure functions and to other measurable quantities. These $Z$ factors can be used to relate matrix elements…
This is a conceptual paper that re-examines the principles underlying the application of renormalization theory to quantum phase transitions in the light of quantum information theory. We start by describing the intuitive argument known as…
Two and three point functions of composite operators are analysed with regard to (logarithmically) divergent contact terms. Using the renormalisation group of dimensional regularisation it is established that the divergences are governed by…
We present results for the renormalisation constants of bilinear quark operators, using the Nf=2 twisted mass Wilson action at maximal twist (which guarantees automatic O(a) improvement) and the tree-level Symanzik improved gauge action.…
We investigate some aspects of the renormalization group flow of gravity in the presence of fermions, which have remained somewhat puzzling so far. The first is the sign of the fermionic contribution to the running of Newton's constant,…
We present a non-perturbative formulation of renormalization by viewing the regularized Schwinger-Dyson hierarchy as a meromorphic connection, that is, as a D-module on the product of spacetime with the regulator disc. The irregular…
Spin foams provide path integrals for quantum gravity, which employ discretizations as regulator. To obtain regulator independent predictions, we must remove these fiducial structures in a suitable refinement limit. In this chapter we…
We develop a formalism with two different UV cutoff scales, one for space and one for time, appropriate for the richer structure of non-Lorentz invariant quantum field theories. In this formalism there are two different beta-functions for…
Perturbative and non-perturbative results are presented on the renormalization constants of the quark field and the vector, axial-vector, pseudoscalar, scalar and tensor currents. The perturbative computation, carried out at one-loop level…
We propose a non-perturbative method for computing the renormalization constants of generic composite operators. This method is intended to reduce some systematic errors, which are present when one tries to obtain physical predictions from…
Connecting orbits are important invariant structures in the state space of nonlinear systems and various techniques are designed for their computation. However, a uniform analytic approximation of the whole orbit seems rare. Here, based on…
The gauge dependence problem of alternative flow equation for the functional renormalization group is studied. It is shown that the effective two-particle irreducible effective action depends on gauges at any value of IR parameter $k$. The…
Chiral Effective Field Theory ($\chi$EFT) has been extensively used to study the $NN$ interaction during the last three decades. In Effective Field Theories (EFTs) the renormalization is performed order by order including the necessary…
We propose a renormalon-inspired resummation of QCD perturbation theory based on approximating the renormalization scheme (RS) invariant effective charge beta-function coefficients by the portion containing the highest power of…
Similarity renormalization group procedure identifies the role of bound states in the low-energy rate of change of effective coupling constant in a model Hamiltonian with asymptotic freedom.
Quantum field theories require a cutoff to regulate divergences that result from local interactions, and yet physical results can not depend on the value of this cutoff. The renormalization group employs a transformation that changes the…
This talk summarizes results for all the scale independent renormalization constants for bilinear currents ($Z_A$, $Z_V$, and $Z_S/Z_P$), the improvement constants ($c_A$, $c_V$, and $c_T$), the quark mass dependence of $Z_O$, and the…
We present a procedure of differential renormalization at the one loop level which avoids introducing unnecessary renormalization constants and automatically preserves abelian gauge invariance. The amplitudes are expressed in terms of a…
The chirally rotated Schr\"odinger functional for Wilson-fermions allows for finite-volume, mass-independent renormalization schemes compatible with automatic O($a$) improvement. So far, in QCD, the set-up has only been studied in the…
We study a self-interacting scalar field theory in the presence of a \delta-function background potential. The role of surface interactions in obtaining a renormalizable theory is stressed and demonstrated by a two-loop calculation. The…
