We study the one-loop effective potentials of the four-dimensional Lifshitz scalar field theory with the particular anisotropic scaling $z=2$, and show that the renormalization is possible without resort to the renormalization of the…
The critical behavior of semi-infinite $d$-dimensional systems with $n$-component order parameter $\bm{\phi}$ and short-range interactions is investigated at an $m$-axial bulk Lifshitz point whose wave-vector instability is isotropic in an…
Long-range quantum lattice systems often exhibit drastically different behavior than their short-range counterparts. In particular, because they do not satisfy the conditions for the Lieb-Robinson theorem, they need not have an emergent…
We demonstrate the existence of an exactly marginal deformation, with derivative coupling, about the free theory of a $(2+1)$-dimensional charged, Lifshitz scalar with dynamic critical exponent $z=4$ and particle-hole asymmetry. We show…

We investigate deformations of Lifshitz holography in $(n+1)$ dimensional spacetime. After discussing the situation for general Lifshitz scaling symmetry parameter $z$, we consider $z=n-1$ and the associated marginally relevant operators.…
We show that Hertz $\phi^4$ theory of quantum criticality is incomplete as it misses anomalous non-local contributions to the interaction vertices. For antiferromagnetic quantum transitions, we found that the theory is renormalizable only…

The large-n expansion is applied to the calculation of thermal critical exponents describing the critical behavior of spatially anisotropic d-dimensional systems at m-axial Lifshitz points. We derive the leading nontrivial 1/n correction…
The quantum Lifshitz model provides an effective description of a quantum critical point. It has been shown that even though non--Lorentz invariant, the action admits a natural supersymmetrization. In this note we introduce a perturbative…
We show that the recent renormalization-group analysis of Lifshitz critical behavior presented by Leite [Phys. Rev. B {\bf 67}, 104415 (2003)] suffers from a number of severe deficiencies. In particular, we show that his approach does not…
A new renormalization group treatment is proposed for the critical exponents of an m-fold Lifshitz point. The anisotropic cases (m not equal 8) are described by two independent fixed points associated to two independent momentum flow along…
The presence of isotropic Lifshitz points for a U(1) symmetric scalar theory is investigated with the help of the Functional Renormalization Group at the conjectured lower critical dimension d=4. To this aim, a suitable truncation in the…
In this paper we consider classical and quantum versions of the critical long-range $O(N)$ model, for which we study finite-size and finite-temperature effects, respectively, at large $N$. First, we consider the classical (isotropic) model,…
We study the long-range quantum correlations in the anisotropic XY-model. By first examining the thermodynamic limit we show that employing the quantum discord as a figure of merit allows one to capture the main features of the model at…
New field theoretic renormalization group methods are developed to describe in a unified fashion the critical exponents of an m-fold Lifshitz point at the two-loop order in the anisotropic (m not equal to d) and isotropic (m=d close to 8)…
We characterize quantum oscillations in the magnetic susceptibility of a quantum critical non-Fermi liquid. The computation is performed in a strongly interacting regime using the nonperturbative holographic correspondence. The temperature…
Semi-infinite $d$-dimensional systems with an $m$-axial bulk Lifshitz point are considered whose ($d-1$)-dimensional surface hyper-plane is oriented perpendicular to one of the $m$ modulation axes. An $n$-component $\phi^4$ field theory…
In non-relativistic field theories, quantum fluctuations give rise to dissipative behaviour even at zero temperature. Here we use holographic methods to explore the dissipative dynamics of massive particles coupled to quantum critical…
We construct analytically an asymptotically Lifshitz black brane with dynamical exponent z=1+epsilon^2 in an Einstein-Proca model, where epsilon is a small parameter. In previous work we showed that the holographic dual QFT is a deformation…
