We develop a systematic renormalization procedure for QFT in anti-de Sitter spacetime. UV infinities are regulated using a geodesic point-splitting method, which respects AdS isometries, while IR infinities are regulated by cutting off the…
Effective potential for scalar $\lambda\phi^4$ theory is obtained using the exact renormalization group method which includes both the usual one-loop contribution as well as the dominant higher loop effects. Our numerical calculation…
I show how a renormalization group (RG) method can be used to incrementally integrate the information in cosmological large-scale structure data sets (including CMB, galaxy redshift surveys, etc.). I show numerical tests for Gaussian…
According to usual calculations, the use of a hard cutoff $\Lambda$ in gauge theories leads to a violation of gauge invariance. This seems to generate a tension between gauge theories and the Wilsonian effective field theory (EFT) paradigm,…
We apply renormalisation-group methods to two-body scattering by a combination of known long-range and unknown short-range potentials. We impose a cut-off in the basis of distorted waves of the long-range potential and identify possible…
Extending previous QCD Hamiltonian studies, we present a new renormalization procedure which generates an effective Hamiltonian for the gluon sector. The formulation is in the Coulomb gauge where the QCD Hamiltonian is renormalizable and…
We study the renormalization group evolution up to the fixed point of the lattice topological susceptibility in the 2-d O(3) non-linear sigma-model. We start with a discretization of the continuum topological charge by a local charge…
The aim of these lectures is to describe a construction, as self-contained as possible, of renormalized gauge theories. Following a suggestion of Polchinski, we base our analysis on the Wilson renormalization group method. After a…

A scale-dependent cosmological constant $\Lambda$ and the Newton constant G emerge naturally in quantum field theory in a curved space-time background leading to renormalization group running cosmologies. A scale-setting procedure is…
In this paper we present a dimensional renormalization scheme suitable for holographic theories. We use the bulk physics in the supergravity limit as a definition of the dual CFT. Similar to the perturbative quantization of a QFT, one is…
In this paper we shall study whether dissipation in a $\lambda\phi^{4}$ may be described, in the long wavelength, low frequency limit, with a simple Ohmic term $\kappa\dot{\phi}$, as it is usually done, for example, in studies of defect…
