Inflation is studied in the context of induced gravity (IG) $\gamma \sigma^2 R$, where $R$ is the Ricci scalar, $\sigma$ a scalar field and $\gamma$ a dimensionless constant. We study in detail cosmological perturbations in IG and examine…
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…
A perturbative strategy for inflation described by two-inflaton fields is developed using a mathematical analogy with the renormalization-group. Two small quantities, $\alpha$ and $\lambda$, corresponding to standard slow-roll parameters…

The renormalization-group (RG) flow in the finite-temperature (2+1)-dimensional Georgi-Glashow model is explored. This is done in the limit when the squared electric coupling constant is much larger than the mass of the Higgs field. The…
The renormalization group (RG) properties of quantum gravity are explored, using the vielbein and the spin connection as the fundamental field variables. The scale dependent effective action is required to be invariant both under space time…

For cosmologies including scale dependence of both the cosmological and the gravitational constant, an additional consistency condition dictated by the Bianchi identities emerges, even if the energy-momentum tensor of ordinary matter stays…
In the context of the Renormalization Group (RG) for gravity I discuss the role of field rescalings and their relation to choices of units. I concentrate on a simple Higgs model coupled to gravity, where natural choices of units can be…
We apply the functional renormalization group to Starobinsky's stochastic equation describing the local dynamics of a light scalar field in de Sitter. After elaborating on the over-damped regime of stochastic dynamics, we introduce an…
We investigate the holographic Renormalization Group (RG) flows and the critical phenomena that take place in the $QFT$'s dual to the d-dimensional cubic Quasi-Topological Gravity coupled to scalar matter. The knowledge of the corresponding…
The renormalization group (RG) is an essential technique in statistical physics and quantum field theory, which considers scale-invariant properties of physical theories and how these theories' parameters change with scaling. Deep learning…
We make a few general comments on the Renormalization Group flows in certain Yang-Mills theories in the vicinity of phase transitions. We then present a model in d=5 with non-periodic boundary conditions where a possible RG flow starts from…
We present a simple and consistent way to compute correlation functions in interacting theories with non-trivial phase diagram. As an example we show how to consistently compute the four-point function in three dimensional…
In this short paper we outline a recipe for the reconstruction of $F(R)$ gravity starting from single field inflationary potentials in the Einstein frame. For simple potentials one can compute the explicit form of $F(R)$, whilst for more…
It was found that deformation of S^7 gives rise to renormalization group(RG) flow from N=8, SO(8)-invariant UV fixed point to N=1, G_2-invariant IR fixed point in four-dimensional gauged N=8 supergravity. Also BPS supersymmetric domain wall…
Seemingly unrelated models of inflation that originate from different physical setups yield, in some cases, identical predictions for the currently constrained inflationary observables. In order to classify the available models, we propose…
We define the renormalization group flow for a renormalizable interacting quantum field in curved spacetime via its behavior under scaling of the spacetime metric, $\g \to \lambda^2 \g$. We consider explicitly the case of a scalar field,…
