We discuss the free-energy density of bosonic and fermionic theories possessing strongly coupled critical points in D=3. We construct a stationary renormalization group trajectory which interpolates between the free massless theory of N…

We present results from numerical simulations of the (2+1)-dimensional Gross-Neveu model with a U(1) chiral symmetry and N_f=4 fermion species at non-zero temperature. We provide evidence that there are two different chirally symmetric…
The Phi4 theory in 4-epsilon dimensions has two fixed points, which coincide in the limit epsilon->0. One is a Gaussian UV fixed point, and the other a non-trivial IR fixed point. They lead to two different continuum field theories. The…
In renormalized field theories there are in general one or few fixed points which are accessible by the renormalization-group flow. They can be identified from the fixed-point equations. Exceptionally, an infinite family of fixed points…
In this note, we study a melonic tensor model in $d$ dimensions based on three-index Dirac fermions with a four-fermion interaction. Summing the melonic diagrams at strong coupling allows one to define a formal large-$N$ saddle point in…
In this paper we show that in the noncommutative chiral gauge theories the 4-fermion vertices are finite. The $4\psi$-vertices appear in linear order in quantization of the $\theta$-expanded noncommutative gauge theories; in all previously…
We investigate the chiral sine-Gordon model using the renormalization group method. The chiral sine-Gordon model is a model for $G$-valued fields and describes a new class of phase transitions, where $G$ is a compact Lie group. We show that…
Using Wilsonian methods, we study the renormalization group flow of the Nonlinear Sigma Model in any dimension $d$, restricting our attention to terms with two derivatives. At one loop we always find a Ricci flow. When symmetries completely…
In metals, low-energy effective theories are characterized by a set of coupling functions. Among them, the angle-dependent Fermi momentum specifies the size and shape of Fermi surface. Since the Fermi momentum grows incessantly under the…
We study the alignment of the vacuum in fermionic gauge theories with enhanced global symmetries by adding a small explicit mass term. Specifically we center our investigations around the theories with two Dirac fermions in a real or…
In this paper we will discuss the derivation of the so-called vanishing beta function curves which can be used to explore the fixed point structure of the theory under consideration. This can be applied to the O($N$) symmetric theories,…
In this paper, we develop studies of the dynamical symmetry breaking in the Horava-Lifshitz four-fermion model for the specific case $z=3$ and explicitly demonstrate that for various space-time dimensions, one could arrive at the theory…
We study line defects in the fermionic CFTs in the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa universality class in dimensions $2<d<4$. These CFTs may be described as the IR fixed points of the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa (GNY) model in $d=4-\epsilon$, or as the UV fixed…
We investigate a Lorentz-violating chiral model composed by two fermions, a complex scalar field and a gauge field. We show that by convenientely adjusting the parameters of the model, it is possible to generate an unambiguous…
We consider the zero-temperature fixed points controlling the critical behavior of the $d$-dimensional random-field Ising, and more generally $O(N)$, models. We clarify the nature of these fixed points and their stability in the region of…
We show explicitly how a strongly coupled fixed point can be constructed in scalar $g\varphi^4$ theory from the solutions to a non-linear eigenvalue problem. The fixed point exists only for $d< 4$, is unstable and characterized by $\nu=2/d$…
We present a renormalization group theory for the onset of Ising-nematic order in a Fermi liquid in two spatial dimensions. This is a quantum phase transition, driven by electron interactions, which spontaneously reduces the point-group…
We compute the running of the coupling in SU(2) gauge theory with six fermions in fundamental representation of the gauge group. We establish an infrared stable fixed point at strong coupling and measure also the anomalous dimension of the…
We study fermion localization in gauge theory space. We consider four dimensional product gauge groups in which light chiral fermions transform under different gauge factors of the product group. This construction provides a suppression of…
