The exact renormalization group approach (ERG) is developed for the case of pure fermionic theories by deriving a Grassmann version of the ERG equation and applying it to the study of fixed point solutions and critical exponents of the…
Finding the relation between the symmetry transformations in the continuum and on the lattice might be a nontrivial task as illustrated by the history of chiral symmetry. Lattice actions induced by a renormalization group procedure inherit…

We present an exact RG (renormalization group) analysis of $O(N)$-invariant scalar field theory about the Gaussian fixed point. We prove a series of statements that taken together show that the non-polynomial eigen-perturbations found in…
Some recent all-loop results on the renormalization of supersymmetric theories are summarized and reviewed. In particular, we discuss how it is possible to construct expressions which do not receive quantum corrections in all orders for…
We show that the renormalization factor relating the renormalization group invariant quark masses to the bare quark masses computed in lattice QCD can be determined non-perturbatively. The calculation is based on an extension of a…
An exact renormalization equation (ERGE) accounting for an anisotropic scaling is derived. The critical and tricritical Lifshitz points are then studied at leading order of the derivative expansion which is shown to involve two differential…
We present an overview of the construction and testing of actions for SU(3) gauge theory which are approximate fixed points of renormalization group equations (at $\beta\rightarrow \infty$). Such actions are candidates for use in numerical…
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…
An extensive study of the compact $U(1)$ lattice gauge theory with a higher derivative gauge-fixing term and a suitable counter-term has been undertaken to determine the nature of the possible continuum limits for a wide range of the…
In this Ph.D. thesis a model for graphene in presence of quantized electromagnetic interactions is introduced. The zero and low temperature properties of the model are studied using rigorous renormalization group methods and lattice Ward…
We apply analytic perturbation theory in next-to-next-to-leading order to inclusive semileptonic $\tau$-decay and study the renormalization scheme dependence. We argue that the renormalization scheme ambiguity is considerably reduced in the…
A generalization of the standard electroweak model to noncommutative spacetime would involve a product gauge group which is spontaneously broken. Gauge interactions in terms of physical gauge bosons are canonical with respect to massless…
We present an approximation scheme to solve the Non Perturbative Renormalization Group equations and obtain the full momentum dependence of the $n$-point functions. It is based on an iterative procedure where, in a first step, an initial…
In this contribution I discuss a recent proposal of a novel action for lattice gauge theory for finite systems, which accommodates non-periodic spatial boundary conditions. Drawing on the summation-by-parts formulation of finite differences…
The renormalization group plays an essential role in many areas of physics, both conceptually and as a practical tool to determine the long-distance low-energy properties of many systems on the one hand and on the other hand search for…
We formulate a method of performing non-perturbative calculations in quantum field theory, based upon a derivative expansion of the exact renormalization group. We then proceed to apply this method to the calculation of critical exponents…
The renormalization-group improved effective potential ---to leading-log and in the linear curvature approximation--- is constructed for ``finite'' theories in curved spacetime. It is not trivial and displays a quite interesting,…
We analyze the renormalizability properties of pure gauge noncommutative SU(N) theory in the $\theta$-expanded approach. We find that the theory is one-loop renormalizable to first order in $\theta$.
The application of the exact renormalisation group to a many-fermion system with a short-range attractive force is studied. We assume a simple ansatz for the effective action with effective bosons, describing pairing effects and derive a…
