We consider the renormalization group flow equation for the two-dimensional sigma models with the K\"ahler target space. The first-order formulation allows us to treat perturbations in these models as current-current deformations. We…
We consider general renormalizable scalar field theory and derive six-loop beta functions for all parameters in d = 4 dimensions within the $\overline{MS}$-scheme. We do not explicitly compute relevant loop integrals but utilize…
Inspired by previous work on the constraints that duality imposes on beta functions of spin models, we propose a consistency condition between those functions and RG flows at different points in coupling constant space. We show that this…
We compute the three loop $\beta$ function of the Wess-Zumino model to motivate implicit regularization (IR) as a consistent and practical momentum-space framework to study supersymmetric quantum field theories. In this framework which…
Motivated by the search for solvable string theories, we consider the problem of classifying the integrable bosonic 2d $\sigma$-models. We include non-conformal $\sigma$-models, which have historically been a good arena for discovering…
In the paper we study the Yang-Mills effective action in the four-dimensional space-time by using background field formalism. We give an explicit way of cutoff regularization procedure, then do a two-loop renormalization and calculate a…
We construct and study a generalized one-parameter class of scheme transformations, denoted $S_{R,m,k_1}$ with $m \ge 2$, with the property that an $S_{R,m,k_1}$ scheme transformation eliminates the $\ell$-loop terms in the beta function of…
We perform a systematic one-loop renormalization of a general renormalizable Yang-Mills theory coupled to scalars and fermions using a regularization scheme with a smooth momentum cutoff $\Lambda$ (implemented through an exponential damping…
It is shown that for 2D field theories only the first order coefficient of the gravitationally dressed RG $\beta$-function is scheme independent. This is valid even for matter theories with one dimensionless coupling, where the first two…
We investigate defects in scalar field theories in four and six dimensions in a double-scaling (semiclassical) limit, where bulk loops are suppressed and quantum effects come from the defect coupling. We compute $\beta $-functions up to…
We prove that the rank 3 analogue of the tensor model defined in [arXiv:1111.4997 [hep-th]] is renormalizable at all orders of perturbation. The proof is given in the momentum space. The one-loop $\gamma$- and $\beta$-functions of the model…
We study N=(0,2) deformed (2,2) two-dimensional sigma models. Such heterotic models were discovered previously on the world sheet of non-Abelian strings supported by certain four-dimensional N=1 theories. We study geometric aspects and…
The Feigin-Frenkel homomorphism underpinning the Wakimoto construction realises an affine Lie algebra at critical level in terms of the $\beta\gamma$-system of free fields. It was recently shown that much of the construction also goes…
Nonperturbative determinations of the renormalization group $\beta$ function are essential to connect lattice results to perturbative predictions of strongly coupled gauge theories and to determine the $\Lambda$ parameter or the strong…
It is commonly stated that because terms in the beta function of a theory at the level of $\ell \ge 3$ loops and higher are scheme-dependent, it is possible to define scheme transformations that can be used to remove these terms, at least…
The Renormalization Group equation describing the evolution of the metric of the nonlinear sigma model poses some nice mathematical problems involving functional analysis, differential geometry and numerical analysis. In this article we…
Two-loop $\beta$-function and anomalous dimension are calculated for N=1 supersymmetric quantum electrodynamics, regularized by higher derivatives in the minimal subtraction scheme. The result for two-loop contribution to the…

Renormalisation Group (RG) flows in theory space (the space of couplings) are generated by a vector field -- the $\beta$ function. Using a specific metric ansatz in theory space and certain methods employed largely in the context of General…
We compute the beta functions for the $O(N)^3$-invariant general sextic tensor model up to cubic order in the coupling constant, and at leading order in the $1/N$ expansion. Our method is a direct, explicit one, in the sense that we…
