We present five-loop results for the renormalization of various models with a cubic interaction (in ${d = 6 - 2 \varepsilon}$ dimensions). For the scalar model and its ${O(n)}$-symmetric extension we provide renormalization constants,…
A proper version of the proto renormalization-group scheme is presented to derive amplitude equations in striped pattern formation with conserved and nonconserved order parameter. In the conserved case, the result preserves the conservation…
We consider a dilute solution of infinitely rigid rods near a curved, perfectly repulsive surface and study the contribution of the rod depletion layer to the bending elastic constants of membranes. We find that a spontaneous curvature…

A new method, called the method of self-similar approximants, and its recent developments are described. The method is based on the ideas of renormalization group theory and optimal control theory. It allows for the effective extrapolation…
The overlap of a $d+1$ dimensional directed polymer of length $t$ in a random medium is studied using a Renormalization Group approach. In $d>2$ it vanishes at $T_c$ for $t\rightarrow \infty$ as $t^{\Sigma}$ where…
Renormalization is a well-known technique to get rid of ultraviolet (UV) singularities. When relying on Dimensional Regularization (DREG), these become manifest as $\epsilon$-poles, allowing to define counter-terms with useful recursive…

Low-energy scattering is well described by the effective-range expansion. In quantum mechanics, a tower of contact interactions can generate terms in this expansion after renormalization. Scattering parameters are also encoded in the…
In applying large-momentum effective theory, renormalization of the Euclidean correlators in lattice regularization is a challenge due to linear divergences in the self-energy of Wilson lines. Based on lattice QCD matrix elements of the…
There are reasons to believe that the Standard Model is only an effective theory, with new Physics lying beyond it. Supersymmetric extensions are one possibility: they address some of the Standard Model's shortcomings, such as the…
