We develop a renormalization group (RG)-based perturbation scheme for a class of ordinary differential equations, including first-order systems with semisimple or nilpotent linear parts, as well as scalar higher-order equations. The key…
We use the functional renormalization group equation for quantum gravity to construct a non-perturbative flow equation for modified gravity theories of the form $S = \int d^dx \sqrt{g} f(R)$. Based on this equation we show that certain…
We use the holographic method to investigate an RG flow and IR physics of a two-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) deformed by a relevant scalar operator. On the dual gravity side, a renormalization group (RG) flow from a UV to IR CFT…
For a given quantum impurity model, Wilson's numerical renormalization group (NRG) naturally defines a NRG Hamiltonian whose exact eigenstates and eigenenergies are obtainable. We give exact expressions for the free energy, static, as well…
We study the $q\bar{q}$ potential in strongly coupled non-conformal field theories with a non-trivial renormalization group flow via holography. We focus on the properties of this potential at an inter-quark separation $L$ large compared to…
It is shown that the renormalization group (RG) method for global analysis can be formulated in the context of the classical theory of envelopes: Several examples from partial differential equations are analyzed. The amplitude equations…

Signal detection in high dimensions is a critical challenge in data science. While standard methods based on random matrix theory provide sharp detection thresholds for finite-rank perturbations, such as the known Baik-Ben Arous-P\'ech\'e…

We discuss Holographic Renormalization Group equations in the presence of fermions and form fields in the bulk. The existence of a holographically dual quantum field theory for a given bulk gravity theory imposes consistency conditions on…
We showed in part I (hep-th/9912092) that the Hopf algebra ${\cal H}$ of Feynman graphs in a given QFT is the algebra of coordinates on a complex infinite dimensional Lie group $G$ and that the renormalized theory is obtained from the…
The recently developed gauge-invariant formalism for the treatment of fluctuations in holographic renormalization group (RG) flows overcomes most of the previously encountered technical difficulties. I summarize the formalism and present…
We show that if the beta functions of a field theory are given by the gradient of a certain potential on the space of couplings, a gravitational background in one more dimension can express the renormalization group (RG) flow of the theory.…
Approximated functional renormalization group (FRG) equations lead to regulator-dependent $\beta$-functions, in analogy to the scheme-dependence of the perturbative renormalization group (pRG) approach. A scheme transformation redefines the…

We report on a recently introduced Functional Renormalization Group (RG) Equation, and we apply it to quantum gravity in Lorentzian spacetimes. While the RG flow is state-dependent, it is possible to evaluate state and background…
We present two new analytic formulations of the Density Matrix Renormalization Group Method. In these formulations we combine the block renormalization group (BRG) procedure with Variational and Fokker-Planck methods. The BRG method is used…
