We present an extension of the previously proposed mean-field renormalization method to model Hamiltonians which are characterized by more than just one type of interaction. The method rests on scaling assumptions about the magnetization of…

We present a new method for renormalisation group improvement of the effective potential of a quantum field theory with an arbitrary number of scalar fields. The method amounts to solving the renormalisation group equation for the effective…

In the context of non-relativistic quantum field theory, a method is proposed for multiplying field operators at the same spatial point and obtaining regular (i.e. rigorously defined) interaction terms for the Hamiltonian. The basic idea is…

A scalar theory can have many Gaussian (free) fixed points, corresponding to Lagrangians of the form $\phi\,\Box^k\phi$. We use the non-perturbative RG to study examples of flows between such fixed points. We show that the anomalous…

The Schrodinger equation with a two-dimensional delta-function potential is a simple example of an asymptotically free theory that undergoes dimensional transmutation. Renormalization requires the introduction of a mass scale, which can be…
