We define a model of 2 coupled SU(2) doublets of scalar fields in $4$ spacetime dimensions which have a rich structure of renormalization group (RG) flows to 1-loop when the SU(2) is broken to U(1). The model is pseudo-hermitian, $H^\dagger…
We prove the stability of the torus, and with suitable rescaling, hyperbolic space under the (two-loop) renormalization group flow for the nonlinear sigma model. To prove stability we use similar techniques to \cite{GIK02}, where the…
In the context of Wilsonian Renormalization, renormalization group (RG) flows are a set of differential equations that defines how the coupling constants of a theory depend on an energy scale. These equations closely resemble…

We derive constraints on renormalization group (RG) flows and stability of phases in nonequilibrium systems using quantum information inequalities. These constraints involve conditional mutual information (CMI), which quantifies…
The process of renormalization to eliminate divergences arising in quantum field theory is not uniquely defined; one can always perform a finite renormalization, rendering finite perturbative results ambiguous. The consequences of making…
We study the critical properties of the weakly disordered two-dimensional Ising and Baxter models in terms of the renormalization group (RG) theory generalized to take into account the replica symmetry breaking (RSB) effects. Recently it…
We investigate the renormalization group (RG) structure of the gradient flow. Instead of using the original bare action to generate the flow, we propose to use the effective action at each flow time. We write down the basic equation for…
We present a renormalization group (RG) method which allows for an analytical study of the transient dynamics of open quantum systems on all time scales. Whereas oscillation frequencies and decay rates of exponential time evolution follow…
The renormalization group flow in the theory space of a BRST invariant string $\sigma$-model is investigated. For the open bosonic string the non-perturbative off-shell effective action and its gauge symmetry properties are determined from…
We determine the exact beta function and a RG flow Lyapunov function for N=2 SYM with gauge group SU(n). It turns out that the classical discriminants of the Seiberg-Witten curves determine the RG potential. The radial irreversibility of…
Shell models are simplified models of hydrodynamic turbulence, retaining only some essential features of the original equations, such as the non-linearity, symmetries and quadratic invariants. Yet, they were shown to reproduce the most…
Complex systems with many degrees of freedom are typically intractable, but some of their behaviors may admit simpler effective descriptions. The question of when such effective descriptions are possible remains open. The paradigmatic…
Recent results for two-loop renormalization group (RG) functions in effective field theories exhibit unphysical divergences when calculated in an on-shell operator basis. We demonstrate that this can be understood to be a result of omitting…
We write a Renormalization Group (RG) equation for the function f in a theory of gravity in the f(R) truncation. Our equation differs from previous ones due to the exponential parametrization of the quantum fluctuations and to the choice of…
We show how to compute real space renormalization group flows in lattice field theory by a self-consistent method. In each step, the integration over the fluctuation field (high frequency components of the field) is performed by a saddle…

We study the renormalization group (RG) equations of a pair of spin-boson systems coupled in the z-direction with each other. Each spin is coupled to a different bath of harmonic oscillators. We introduce a systematic adiabatic RG, which…
Spin foams provide path integrals for quantum gravity, which employ discretizations as regulator. To obtain regulator independent predictions, we must remove these fiducial structures in a suitable refinement limit. In this chapter we…
