We study the Renormalization Group (RG) flow of critical bosonic background fields in the framework of the RG approach to string theory. In this approach quantum field theory beta-functions are the extra inputs in solving the string theory…
The "exact" or "functional" renormalization group equation describes the renormalization group flow of the effective average action $\Gamma_k$. The ordinary effective action $\Gamma_0$ can be obtained by integrating the flow equation from…

I describe an application of Wilson Renormalization group to the real time formalism of finite temperature field theory. The approach has two nice features: 1) the RG flow equations describe non-perturbatively the effect of thermal…
A formalism for electronic-structure calculations is presented that is based on the functional renormalization group (FRG). The traditional FRG has been formulated for systems that exhibit a translational symmetry with an associated Fermi…
The perturbative renormalization of the Ginzburg-Landau model is reconsidered based on the Feynman diagram technique. We derive renormalization group (RG) flow equations, exactly calculating all vertices appearing in the perturbative…
In the paper, within the background field method, the renormalization and the gauge dependence is studied as for an SU(2) Yang-Mills theory with multiplets of spinor and scalar fields. By extending the quantum action of the BV-formalism…
We consider the ordinary and noncommutative Dirac-Born-Infeld theories within the open string sigma-model. First, we propose a renormalization scheme, hybrid point splitting regularization, that leads directly to the Seiberg-Witten…
A manifestly gauge invariant exact renormalization group for pure SU(N) Yang-Mills theory is proposed, along with the necessary gauge invariant regularisation which implements the effective cutoff. The latter is naturally incorporated by…
We take the manifestly gauge invariant exact renormalisation group previously used to compute the one-loop beta function in SU(N) Yang-Mills without gauge fixing, and generalise it so that it can be renormalised straightforwardly at any…
The exact renormalization group is used to study the RG flow of quantities in field theories. The basic idea is to write an evolution operator for the flow and evaluate it in perturbation theory. This is easier than directly solving the…
