We present a non--perturbative study of the (1+1)--dimensional massless Thirring model by using path integral methods. The regularization ambiguities -coming from the computation of the fermionic determinant- allow to find new solution…
We show that it is possible to use dimensional regularization (DR) beyond the usual $\varepsilon$-expansion in the context of renormalization group (RG) calculations in Critical Phenomena. Based on this fact, we propose a new functional RG…

We present a renormalization group (RG) approach to explain universal features of extreme statistics, applied here to independent, identically distributed variables. The outlines of the theory have been described in a previous Letter, the…
Two different models exhibiting self-organized criticality are analyzed by means of the dynamic renormalization group. Although the two models differ by their behavior under a parity transformation of the order parameter, it is shown that…
We investigate the RG-time integration of the effective potential in the functional renormalization group in the presence of spontaneous symmetry breaking and its subsequent convexity restoration on the example of a scalar theory in $d=3$.…
Using one loop functional RG we study two problems of pinned elastic systems away from their equilibrium or steady states. The critical regime of the depinning transition is investigated starting from a flat initial condition. It exhibits…
We present the full phase diagram of the spherical $2+p$ spin glass model with $p\geq 4$. The main outcome is the presence of a new phase with both properties of Full Replica Symmetry Breaking (FRSB) phases of discrete models, e.g, the…
We introduce a class of variational states to describe quantum many-body systems. This class generalizes matrix product states which underly the density-matrix renormalization group approach by combining them with weighted graph states.…
We investigate the $\theta$-vacuum structure and the 't Hooft anomaly at $\theta=\pi$ in a simple quantum mechanical system on $S^1$ to scrutinize the applicability of the functional renormalization group (fRG) approach. Even though the fRG…
To study materials phenomena simultaneously at various length scales, descriptions in which matter can be coarse grained to arbitrary levels, are necessary. Attempts to do this in the static regime (i.e. zero temperature) have already been…
The density matrix renormalization group (DMRG) approach is arguably the most successful method to numerically find ground states of quantum spin chains. It amounts to iteratively locally optimizing matrix-product states, aiming at better…
Rank-d Tensorial Group Field Theories are quantum field theories defined on a group manifold $G^{\times d}$, which represent a non-local generalization of standard QFT, and a candidate formalism for quantum gravity, since, when endowed with…
Renormalization group methods are an essential ingredient in the study of nonperturbative problems of quantum field theory. This paper deal with the symmetry constraints on the renormalization group flow for quartic melonic tensorial group…
We consider the Wilson-Polchinski exact renormalization group applied to the generating functional of single-trace operators at a free-fixed point in $d=2+1$ dimensions. By exploiting the rich symmetry structure of free field theory, we…
A relation between geometric phases and criticality of spin chains are studied by using the quantum renormalization-group approach. We have shown how the geometric phase evolve as the size of the system becomes large, i.e., the finite size…
We formulate the problem of finding the low-energy limit of spin foam models as a coarse-graining problem in the sense of statistical physics. This suggests that renormalization group methods may be used to find that limit. However, since…
