We analyze the large $N$ spectrum of chiral primary operators of three dimensional fixed points of the renormalization group. Using the space-time picture of the fixed points and the correspondence between anti-de Sitter compactifications…

We study the sector of large charge operators $\phi^n$ ($\phi$ being the complexified scalar field) in the $O(2)$ Wilson-Fisher fixed point in $4-\epsilon$ dimensions that emerges when the coupling takes the critical value $g\sim \epsilon$.…

It has been previously shown that calculation of renormalization group (RG) functions of the scalar \phi^4 theory reduces to the analysis of thermodynamic properties of the Ising model. Using high-temperature expansions for the latter, RG…

Operator product expansions (OPE) for the product of a scalar field with its conjugate are presented as infinite sums of bilocal fields V_k (x_1, x_2) of dimension (k,k). For a {\it globally conformal invariant} (GCI) theory we write down…

The correlators of free four dimensional conformal field theories (CFT4) have been shown to be given by amplitudes in two-dimensional $so(4,2)$ equivariant topological field theories (TFT2), by using a vertex operator formalism for the…

We develop an algorithmic, system-specific renormalization group (RG) procedure that is adapted from model reductions techniques from engineering control theory. The resulting "generalized" RG is a consistent generalization of the Wilsonian…

We discuss how the ordinary renormalization group (RG) equations arise in the context of Wilson's exact renormalization group (ERG) as formulated by Polchinski. We consider the phi4 theory in four dimensional euclidean space as an example,…

We study power boundedness and related properties such as mean ergodicity for (weighted) composition operators on function spaces defined by local properties. As a main application of our general approach we characterize when (weighted)…

We apply the Operator Product Expansion (OPE) algorithm to the renormalization of scalar-QED theory, with a specific focus on the fixed-charge operator $\phi^Q$. Within the OPE framework, the anomalous dimension of the $\phi^Q$ operator is…

We extend the OPE-based renormalization algorithm to composite operators with operator mixing, focusing on scalar operators in $\phi^4$ and $\phi^3$ models. Using the OPE of operators with a fundamental field, we show that the $Z$-factors…

We consider a new subclass of quadratic stochastic (evolutionary) operators on the simplex indexed by a finite Abelian group G with heredity law \mu. With the help of the notion of s(\mu)-invariant subgroups, where s(\mu) denotes the…

In an arbitrary unitary 4D CFT we consider a scalar operator \phi, and the operator \phi^2 defined as the lowest dimension scalar which appears in the OPE \phi\times\phi with a nonzero coefficient. Using general considerations of OPE,…

The operator product expansion in four-dimensional superconformal field theory is discussed. The OPE takes a particularly simple form for chiral operators, in $N=1$ and $N=2$, and for analytic operators, in $N=2$ and $N=4$. It is argued…

We show, within the framework of the Euclidean $\phi^4$-quantum field theory in four dimensions, that the Wilson operator product expansion (OPE) is not only an asymptotic expansion at short distances as previously believed, but even…

Based on a canonically derived path integral formalism, we demonstrate that the perturbative calculation of the matrix element for gauge dependent operators has crucial difference from that for gauge invariant ones. For a gauge dependent…
