We show that the so-called Phi-derivable approximations can be combined with the exact renormalization group to provide efficient non-perturbative approximation schemes. On the one hand, the Phi-derivable approximations allow for a simple…

We provide a renormalization procedure for Phi-derivable approximations in theories coupling different types of fields. We illustrate our approach on a scalar phi^4 theory coupled to fermions via a Yukawa-like interaction. The…
A unified approach to quintessence and inflation is investigated with the use of a single scalar field. It is argued that successful potentials have to approximate a combination of exponential and inverse power-law decline in the limit of…
The mechanism of the initial inflationary scenario of the universe and of its late-time acceleration can be described by assuming the existence of some gravitationally coupled scalar fields $\phi $, with the inflaton field generating…
In this paper we consider a scalar field system with a class of potentials given by the expression, $V(\phi)\propto \phi^m {\rm exp}({-\lambda \phi^n/{M^n_{Pl}}})$; $m\geqslant 0, n>1$ for which $\Gamma=V_{\phi \phi}V/V^2_{\phi}\to 1 $ as…
The paper is an attempt to relate two vast areas of the applicability of the renormalization group (RG): field theoretic models and partial differential equations. It is shown that the Green function of a nonlinear diffusion equation can be…
