We define the renormalization group flow for a renormalizable interacting quantum field in curved spacetime via its behavior under scaling of the spacetime metric, $\g \to \lambda^2 \g$. We consider explicitly the case of a scalar field,…
We propose new approach for treatment of local and non-local interactions in correlated electronic systems, which uses self-energy and the two-particle irreducible vertices, obtained from (extended) dynamical mean-field theory, as an input…
In this paper we present an overview on recent progress in studies of QCD at finite temperature and densities within the functional renormalization group (fRG) approach. The fRG is a nonperturbative continuum field approach, in which…
Recently Gaiotto [1] considered conformal defects which produce an expansion of infrared local fields in terms of the ultraviolet ones for a given renormalization group flow. In this paper we propose that for a boundary RG flow in two…
We develop a field-theoretic representation for the configurations of an interface between two ordered phases of a q-state Potts model in two dimensions, in the solid-on-solid approximation. The model resembles the field theory of directed…
Scattering amplitudes in QCD exhibit a definite RG flow with energy towards the unitarity limit. In this paper we put forward an evolution equation which allows one to modify continuously the pre-asymptotic RG flow towards "saturation" of…
A general self-consistency approach allows a thorough treatment of the corrections to the standard mean-field approximation (MFA). The natural extension of standard MFA with the help of a cumulant expansion leads to a new point of view on…
Non-equilibrium dynamics are present in many aspects of our lives, ranging from microscopic physical systems to the functioning of the brain. What characterizes stochastic models of non-equilibrium processes is the breaking of the…
The asymptotic behaviour of cubic field theories is investigated in the Regge limit using the techniques of environmentally friendly renormalization, environmentally friendly in the present context meaning asymmetric in its momentum…
The Random Phase Approximation (RPA) for total energies has previously been shown to provide a qualitatively correct description of static correlation in molecular systems, where density functional theory (DFT) with local functionals are…
The Comment by Ha et al. [cond-mat/0603787] criticizes our recent result [Phys. Rev. Lett. 96, 038701 (2006)] that the contact process (CP) on uncorrelated scale-free (SF) networks does not behave according to heterogeneous mean-field (MF)…
The renormalization group (RG) in statistical physics focuses on ground-state properties of equilibrium systems. However, it is unclear how it should be generalized to nonunitary quantum dynamics caused by dissipation and measurement…
Polarizable atoms interacting with a charged wire do so through an inverse-square potential, $V = - g/r^2$. This system is known to realize scale invariance in a nontrivial way and to be subject to ambiguities associated with the choice of…
The constraints imposed by asymptotic freedom and analyticity on the large-order behavior of perturbation theory for the electromagnetic current-current correlation function are examined. By suitably applying the renormalization group, the…
A new phase field crystal (PFC) type theory is presented, which accounts for the full spectrum of solid-liquid-vapor phase transitions within the framework of a single density order parameter. Its equilibrium properties show the most…
We consider N run and tumble particles in one dimension interacting via a linear 1D Coulomb potential, an active version of the rank diffusion problem. It was solved previously for N = 2 leading to a stationary bound state in the attractive…
We develop an analytical diffusion-equation-type approximation scheme for the one-dimensional coagulation reaction A+A->A with partial reaction probability on particle encounters which are otherwise hard-core. The new approximation…
Renormalization-group theory predicts that the XXZ antiferromagnet in a magnetic field along the easy Z-axis has asymptotically either a tetracritical phase-diagram or a triple point in the field-temperature plane. Neither experiments nor…
We study the nature of the finite-temperature chiral transition in QCD with N_f light quarks in the adjoint representation (aQCD). Renormalization-group arguments show that the transition can be continuous if a stable fixed point exists in…
Different perturbation theory treatments of the Ginzburg-Landau phase transition model are discussed. This includes a criticism of the perturbative renormalization group (RG) approach and a proposal of a novel method providing critical…
