We investigate the topic of renormalization in the theory of weakly interacting open quantum systems. Our starting point is an open quantum system interacting with a single heat bath. For a given setup, we discuss that the stationary state…
We give an overview of the current theoretical status of proper time renormalization group flow equations applied to QCD. These equations give the evolution of coupling constants in an effective QCD Lagrangian as a function of an infra-red…
Open quantum systems that comply with the master equation and detailed balance decay in a non-oscillatory manner to thermal equilibrium. Beyond the weak coupling limit, systems that break microreversibility (e.g., in the presence of…
It is generally believed that quantum fluctuations collaborate with thermal fluctuations, effectively reducing transition temperatures (e.g. for melting of charge order). We show that this is not always the case and that the interplay…
We carry out a field-theoretical renormalization group procedure based on the Callan-Symanzik equation to calculate the detailed flow for the (multi) two-channel Kondo model and its compactified versions. In doing so, we go beyond the…
Differential equation-based physiological models of sleep-wake networks describe sleep-wake regulation by simulating the activity of wake- and sleep-promoting neuronal populations and the modulation of these populations by homeostatic and…
We illustrate how the reorganization of perturbation theory at finite temperature can be economically cast in terms of the Wilson-Polchinski renormalization methods. We take as an example the old saw of the induced thermal mass of a hot…
The hadronic decay rate of the tau lepton serves as one of the most precise determinations of the QCD coupling alpha_s. The dominant theoretical source of uncertainty at present resides in the seeming disparity of two approaches to…
Particles subject to weak contact interactions in a finite-size lattice tend to thermalise. The Hamiltonian evolution ensures energy conservation and the final temperature is fully determined by the initial conditions. In this work we show…
I show that an application of renormalization group arguments may lead to significant corrections to the vacuum decay rate for phase transitions in flat and curved space-time. It can also give some information regarding its dependence on…
Dynamic critical behavior in superfluid systems is considered in a presence of external stirring and advecting processes. The latter are generated by means of the Gaussian random velocity ensemble with white-noise character in time variable…
Renormalization group method is one of the most powerful tool to obtain approximate solutions to differential equations. We apply the renormalization group method to Hamiltonian systems whose integrable parts linearly depend on action…
By adding a linear term to a renormalization-group equation in a system exhibiting infinite-order phase transitions, asymptotic behavior of running coupling constants is derived in an algebraic manner. A benefit of this method is presented…
The interplay between circadian and reward function is well understood in animal models, and is of growing interest as an aetiological explanation in psychopathologies. Circadian modulation of reward function has been demonstrated in human…
The deep sub-Ohmic spin-boson model shows a longstanding non-Markovian coherence at low temperature. Motivating to quench this robust coherence, the thermal effect is unitarily incorporated into the time evolution of the model, which is…
We study the vacuum polarization tensor of QED (quantum electrodynamics) at high temperatures up to the two loop levels and its effect on the electromagnetic properties of a medium. One loop corrections to QED coupling vanish at low…
Time dynamics of isolated many-body quantum systems has long been an elusive subject. Very recently, however, meaningful experimental studies of the problem have finally become possible, stimulating theoretical interest as well. Progress in…
We develop the strong coupling quantum thermodynamics based on the solution of the exact master equation. We find that both the Hamiltonian and the temperature must be renormalized due to the system-reservoir couplings. With the…
