In this paper we show that the skeleton diagrams in the m-Loop nPI effective action correspond to an infinite resummation of perturbative diagrams which is void of double counting at the m-Loop level. We also show that the variational…
We present an approximation scheme of the nonperturbative renormalization group that preserves the momentum dependence of correlation functions. This approximation scheme can be seen as a simple improvement of the local potential…

The 1/N expansion of the two-particle irreducible effective action offers a powerful approach to study quantum field dynamics far from equilibrium. We investigate the effective convergence of the 1/N expansion in the O(N) model by comparing…

We calculate the critical exponent $\nu$ in the 1/N expansion of the two-particle-irreducible (2PI) effective action for the O(N) symmetric $\phi ^4$ model in three spatial dimensions. The exponent $\nu$ controls the behavior of a two-point…

We analyze two-particle renormalizations within many-fermion perturbation expansion. We show that present diagrammatic theories suffer from lack of a direct diagrammatic control over the physical two-particle functions. To rectify this we…
We construct gauge invariant 1PI effective action for the NS sector of type II and heterotic string field theory. By construction, zero eigenvalues of the kinetic operator of this action determine the renormalized physical masses, and tree…
Chiral Effective Field Theory ($\chi$EFT) has been extensively used to study the $NN$ interaction during the last three decades. In Effective Field Theories (EFTs) the renormalization is performed order by order including the necessary…
We discuss the connection between the perturbative and non-perturbative renormalization and related conceptual issues in the few-nucleon sector of the low-energy effective field theory of the strong interactions. General arguments are…
The notion of non-perturbative renormalization is discussed and extended. Within the extended picture, a new non-perturbative representation for the generating functional of Green functions of quantum field theories is suggested. It is…
We compute thermodynamic properties of dilute Bose gases using non-perturbative approximations of the two-particle irreducible (2PI) effective action. It is shown how to systematically renormalise the self-consistent descriptions beyond…
We propose a quantum approach to nonequilibrium dynamics which combines the successful aspects of classical-statistical simulations on a lattice with the ability to take into account quantum corrections. It is based on the 2PI effective…
Motivated by isotropization of QCD matter in the initial stages of heavy-ion collisions, we consider a system of scalar fields that undergoes a boost invariant longitudinal expansion. We use the framework of the two-particle irreducible…
We expand upon on an earlier renormalization group analysis of a non-Fermi liquid fixed point that plausibly govers the two dimensional electron liquid in a magnetic field near filling fraction $\nu=1/2$. We give a more complete description…
We explore a geometric perspective on quantum field theory by considering the configuration space, where all field configurations reside. Employing $n$-particle irreducible effective actions constructed via Legendre transforms of the…
The goal of this paper is to develop the formalism of the two-particle irreducible (2PI) \cite{LW61} (or Cornwall - Jackiw - Tomboulis (CJT) \cite {CJT}) effective action (EA) in a way appropiate to its application to non equilibrium gauge…
A fully explicit renormalized quantum action functional is constructed for the O(N)-model in the auxiliary field formulation at next-to-leading order (NLO) of the 1/N expansion. Counterterms are consistently and explicitly derived for…
