Following Brown[1], we construct composite operators for the scalar $\phi^3$ theory in six dimensions using renormalisation group methods with dimensional regularisation. We express bare scalar operators in terms of renormalised composite…
We study how fluxes on the domain wall world volume modify quantum fusion of two distant parallel domain walls into a composite wall. The elementary wall fluxes can be separated into parallel and antiparallel components. The parallel…
We study the IR/UV connection of the four-dimensional non-commutative phi^4 theory by using the Wilsonian Renormalization Group equation. Extending the usual formulation to the non-commutative case we are able to prove UV renormalizability…
We consider domain walls embedded in curved backgrounds as an approximation for braneworld scenarios. We give a large class of new exact solutions, exhausting the possibilities for describing one and two walls for the cases where the…
The convergence properties of the resummed thermal perturbation series for the thermodynamic pressure are investigated by comparison with the exact results obtained in large-N phi^4 theory and possibilities for improvements are discussed.…
We reexamine the range of validity of finite-size scaling in the $\phi^4$ lattice model and the $\phi^4$ field theory below four dimensions. We show that general renormalization-group arguments based on the renormalizability of the $\phi^4$…
We study the dynamics of domain walls in a double-field model in which the U(1) symmetry is broken both spontaneously and explicitly. The global U(1) symmetry of the system is restored when the symmetry breaking parameter $\epsilon$ is set…
We study domain wall solutions in d=5, N=2 supergravity coupled to a single hypermultiplet whose moduli space is described by certain inhomogeneous, toric ESD manifolds constructed recently by Calderbank and Singer. Upon gauging a generic…
The stochastic $\phi^4$-theory in $d-$dimensions dynamically develops domain wall structures within which the order parameter is not continuous. We develop a statistical theory for the $\phi^4$-theory driven with a random forcing which is…
A six-dimensional reversible normal form system occurs in B{\'e}nard-Rayleigh convection between parallel planes, when we look for domain walls intersecting orthogonally (see Buffoni et al [1]). On the truncated system, we prove…
Polarization of a vacuum as well as of dispersive and dissipative dielectric media with piece-wise and smooth inhomogeneities is studied with the goal to clarify the question of renormalizability of diverging electromagnetic stress-energy…
In a previous work, we established perturbative renormalizability to all orders of the massive $\phi^4_4$-theory on a half-space also called the semi-infinite massive $\phi^4_4$-theory. Five counter-terms which are functions depending on…
In these proceedings, we discuss why functional renormalization is an essential tool to treat strongly disordered systems. More specifically, we treat elastic manifolds in a disordered environment. These are governed by a disorder…
It has been suggested that Ho\v{r}ava-Witten theory could provide a concrete realization of the Dark Dimension Scenario. In this context, the observable Standard Model sector is naturally localized in the micron-sized large dimension, which…
We describe in detail, in the context of the simple scalar $\phi^4$ theory, the prescription for resummation of daisy and superdaisy diagrams in the effective potential using the solution of the gap equations in the infrared limit. We find…
We construct the T duals of certain type IIA brane configurations with one compact dimension (elliptic models) which contain orientifold planes. These configurations realize four-dimensional $\NN=2$ finite field theories. For elliptic…
It is shown that the four dimensional antiferromagnetic lattice phi4 model has the usual non-asymptotically free scaling law in the UV regime around the chiral symmetrical critical point. The theory describes a scalar and a pseudoscalar…
We reproduce Chang's duality condition in a regularized $\phi^4_{1+1}$ theory quantized on a light front. The regularization involves higher derivatives in the Lagrangian, renders the model finite in the ultraviolet, and does not require…
A parametrized double-well potential is proposed to address the issue of the impact of shape deformability of some bistable physical systems, on their quantum dynamics and classical statistical mechanics. The parametrized double-well…
We study some of the implications for the perturbative renormalization program when augmented with the Borel-Ecalle resummation. We show the emergence of a new kind of non-perturbative fixed point for the scalar $\phi^4$ model, representing…
