The classical dimer model on the cubic lattice hosts a columnar ordered phase and a disordered Coulomb phase, separated by a continuous phase transition that lies beyond the conventional Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson paradigm. While its…
A key question about the QCD phase diagram is whether there is a critical point somewhere on the boundary between the hadronic and quark-gluon plasma phases, and if so where. Heavy-ion collisions offer a unique opportunity to search for…
Deterministic rate equations are widely used in the study of stochastic, interacting particles systems. This approach assumes that the inherent noise, associated with the discreteness of the elementary constituents, may be neglected when…
We examine the necessity of requiring that relaxion dynamics is dominated by classical slow roll and not quantum fluctuations. It has been recently proposed by Nelson and Prescod-Weinstein that abandoning this requirement can lead to a…
We study the relaxation of the center-of-mass, or dipole oscillations in the system of interacting fermions confined spatially. With the confinement frequency $\omega_{\perp}$ fixed the particles were considered to freely move along one…
We study the surface scaling behavior of a semi-infinite $d$-dimensional O(N) spin system in the presence of quenched random field and random anisotropy disorders. It is known that above the lower critical dimension $d_{\mathrm{lc}}=4$ the…
Starting from Wilson's action, we calculate strong coupling series for the Polyakov loop susceptibility in lattice gauge theories for various small N_\tau in the thermodynamic limit. Analysing the series with Pad\'e approximants, we…

We study a classical spin model (more precisely a class of models) with O(N) symmetry that can be viewed as a simplified $D$ dimensional lattice model. It is equivalent to a non-translationinvariant one dimensional model and contains the…
We study the prethermal dynamics of an interacting quantum field theory with a N-component order parameter and $O(N)$ symmetry, suddenly quenched in the vicinity of a dynamical critical point. Depending on the initial conditions, the…

We employ the machinery of smooth scaling and coarse-graining of observables, developed recently by us in the context of so-called fluctuation operators (inspired by prior work of Verbeure et al) to make a rigorous renormalisation group…
