We analyze quantum mechanical systems using the non-perturbative renormalization group (NPRG). The NPRG method enables us to calculate quantum corrections systematically and is very effective for studying non-perturbative dynamics. We start…
We report on some advances made in the problem of singularities in general relativity. First is introduced the singular semi-Riemannian geometry for metrics which can change their signature (in particular be degenerate). The standard…
We reformulate the density matrix renormalization group method (DMRG) in terms of a single block, instead of the standard left and right blocks used in the construction of the superblock. This version of the DMRG, which we call the puncture…
The Renormalisation Group (RG) is a systematic procedure used to regularise divergences appearing as artefacts when constructing solutions to a large class of differential problems, whether perturbatively or not. This paper is devoted to…
A renormalization-group (RG) improved Schwarzschild-like black hole is investigated, whose lapse function interpolates between the classical Schwarzschild exterior and a quantum-smoothed interior governed by the cutoff scale $\xi$ and…
