We investigate the renormalization group (RG) structure of the gradient flow. Instead of using the original bare action to generate the flow, we propose to use the effective action at each flow time. We write down the basic equation for…

Renormalization group calculations are used to give exact solutions for rigidity percolation on hierarchical lattices. Algebraic scaling transformations for a simple example in two dimensions produce a transition of second order, with an…
The renormalization-group approaches for classical liquids in previous works require a repulsive reference such as a hard-core one when applied to systems with short-range repulsion. The need for the reference is circumvented here by using…
Interactions growing slower than a certain exponential of the square of a scalar field, are well behaved when evolved under the functional renormalization group linearised around the Gaussian fixed point. They satisfy properties usually…

We discuss the statistical properties of a single vortex line in a perfect fluid. The partition function is calculated up to the end in the thin vortex approximation. It turns out that corresponding theory is renormalizable, and the…
