We analyze the vacuum (topological) angle $\theta$ renormalization for the quantum mechanical model of a particle moving around a ring, where $\theta$ is the magnetic flux through the ring. We construct a renormalization group (RG)…
In these lectures we introduce the functional renormalization group out of equilibrium. While in thermal equilibrium typically a Euclidean formulation is adequate, nonequilibrium properties require real-time descriptions. For quantum…
Two different models exhibiting self-organized criticality are analyzed by means of the dynamic renormalization group. Although the two models differ by their behavior under a parity transformation of the order parameter, it is shown that…
