A simple introduction of renormalization in quantum field theory is discussed. Explanation of concepts is emphasized instead of the technical details.
The aim of this paper is to describe how to use regularization and renormalization to construct a perturbative quantum field theory from a Lagrangian. We first define renormalizations and Feynman measures, and show that although there need…
We recapitulate recent developments of the functional renormalization group (FRG) approach to the steady state of systems out of thermal equilibrium. In particular, we discuss second-order truncation schemes which account for the…
In order to obtain proper wave-function renormalization constants for unstable fermion and consist with Breit-Wigner formula in the resonant region, We have assumed an extension of the LSZ reduction formula for unstable fermion and adopted…
Inspired by the superblock method of White, we introduce a simple modification of the standard Renormalization Group (RG) technique for the study of quantum lattice systems. Our method which takes into account the effect of Boundary…
Renormalization group equations play a central role in effective field theories, both maintaining perturbative control and allowing one to determine the correct low-energy phenomenology. In this work, we complete the one-loop…
A perturbative approach for non renormalizable theories is developed. It is shown that the introduction of an extra expansion parameter allows one to get rid of divergences and express physical quantities as series with finite coefficients.…
We study the renormalization of the fermion mixing matrix in the Standard Model and derive the constraints that must be satisfied to respect gauge invariance to all orders. We demonstrate that the prescription based on the {\it on-shell}…
We present, in the context of dimensional regularization, a prescription to renormalize Feynman diagrams with an arbitrary number of external fermions. This prescription, which is based on the original t'Hooft-Veltman proposal to keep…
A recently proposed normalization condition for the imaginary part of the self-energy of an unstable particle is shown to lead to a closed expression for the field renormalization constant Z. In turn, the exact expression for Z is…
We place the renormalization procedure in quantum field theory into the familiar mathematical context of quantization of Poisson algebras. The Poisson algebra in question is the algebra of classical field theory Hamiltonians constructed in…
We consider a class of Hamiltonians describing a fermion field coupled to a boson field. The interaction kernels are assumed bounded in the fermionic momentum variable and decaying like $|q|^{-p}$ for large boson momenta $q$. A realistic…
We propose using the method of subtraction to renormalize quantum gauge theories with chiral fermions and with spontaneous symmetry breaking. The Ward-Takahashi identities derived from the BRST invariance in these theories are complex and…
In this talk I want to explain the operator substractions needed to renormalize gauge currents in a second quantized theory. The case of space-time dimensions $3+1$ is considered in detail. In presence of chiral fermions the renormalization…
The representation of the bare parameters of Lagrangian in terms of total vertex Green's functions is used to obtain the general form of renormalization conditions. In the framework of this approach renormalizations can be carried out…
We study the renormalization of the Fermi surface coupled to a massless boson near three spatial dimensions. For this, we set up a Wilsonian RG with independent decimation procedures for bosons and fermions, where the four-fermion…
We base a new wave-function renormalization prescription on the pole mass renormalization prescription, in which the Wave-function Renormalization Constant (WRC) is extracted by expanding the particle's propagator around its pole, rather…
The Hamiltonian renormalisation programme motivated by constructive QFT and Osterwalder-Schrader reconstruction which was recently launched for bosonic field theories is extended to fermions. As fermion quantisation is not in terms of…
These are introductory lecture notes aimed at beginning graduate students covering fundamental concepts and ideas behind the renormalisation group. Our main goal is to motivate it and then explore its consequences, in the context of quantum…
In theories with branes, bulk fields get in general divergent corrections localized on these defects. Hence, the corresponding brane terms are renormalized and should be included in the effective theory from the very beginning. We review…
