We study multiscalar theories with $\text{O}(N) \times \text{O}(2)$ symmetry. These models have a stable fixed point in $d$ dimensions if $N$ is greater than some critical value $N_c(d)$. Previous estimates of this critical value from…
We study the effects of curved background geometries on the critical behavior of scalar field theory. In particular we concentrate on two maximally symmetric spaces: $d$-dimensional spheres and hyperboloids. In the first part of the paper,…
By exploiting the diffeomorphism invariance we relate the finite size effects of massless theories to their Weyl anomaly. We show that the universal contributions to the finite size effects are determined by certain coefficient functions in…
Symmetry analysis can provide a suitable change of variables, i.e., in geometric terms, a suitable diffeomorphism that simplifies the given direction field, which can help significantly in solving or studying differential equations. Roughly…
We study the quantum multicritical point in a (2+1)-dimensional Dirac system between the semimetallic phase and two ordered phases that are characterized by anticommuting mass terms with $O(N_1)$ and $O(N_2)$ symmetry, respectively. Using…
We consider the random-field O($N$) spin model with long-range exchange interactions which decay with distance $r$ between spins as $r^{-d-\sigma}$ and/or random fields which correlate with distance $r$ as $r^{-d+\rho}$, and reexamine the…
We study the universality between a discrete spin model with icosahedral symmetry and the O(3) model in two dimensions. For this purpose we study numerically the renormalized two-point functions of the spin field and the four point coupling…
Based on a recent purely geometric construction of observables for the spatial diffeomorphism constraint, we propose two distinct quantum reductions to spherical symmetry within full 3+1-dimensional loop quantum gravity. The construction of…
According to Dyson's three fold way, from the viewpoint of global time reversal symmetry there are three circular ensembles of unitary random matrices relevant to the study of chaotic spectra in quantum mechanics. These are the circular…
We consider the nonlinear Sturm-Liouville differential operator $F(u) = -u'' + f(u)$ for $u \in H^2_D([0, \pi])$, a Sobolev space of functions satisfying Dirichlet boundary conditions. For a generic nonlinearity $f: \RR \to \RR$ we show…
The spectrum of critical exponents of the $N$--vector model in $4-\eps$~dimensions is investigated to the second order in~$\eps$. A generic class of one--loop degeneracies that has been reported in a previous work is lifted in two--loop…
We renormalize the six dimensional cubic theory with an $O(N)$ $\times$ $O(m)$ symmetry at three loops in the modified minimal subtraction (MSbar) scheme. The theory lies in the same universality class as the four dimensional…
We show that the noncommutativity of space-time destroys the renormalizability of the 1/N expansion of the O(N) Gross-Neveu model. A similar statement holds for the noncommutative nonlinear sigma model. However, we show that, up to the…
There have been some speculations about the existence of critical unitary O(N)-invariant scalar field theories in dimensions 4<d<6 and for large N. Using the functional renormalization group equation, we show that in the lowest order of the…
