We establish the renormalization group equation for the running action in the context of a one quantum particle system. This equation is deduced by integrating each fourier mode after the other in the path integral formalism. It is free of…

The gauge dependence of effective average action in the functional renormalization group is studied. The effective average action is considered as non-perturbative solution to the flow equation which is the basic equation of the method. It…
