The renormalization group method is applied to the three-loop effective potential of the massive $\phi^4$ theory in the $\bar{\rm MS}$ scheme in order to obtain the next-next-next-to-leading logarithm resummation. For this, we exploit…
We propose a novel method for renormalization group improvement of thermally resummed effective potential. In our method, $\beta$-functions are temperature dependent as a consequence of the divergence structure in resummed perturbation…

Quantum field theories containing scalar fields with equal quantum numbers allow for a mixed kinetic term in the Lagrangian. It has been argued that this mixing must be taken into consideration when performing renormalization group (RG)…
The gauge parameter dependence of the effective potential is determined by partial differential equations involving also the Higgs boson field expectation value. Solving these equations by the method of characteristics leads to complete…

We reformulate the density matrix renormalization group method (DMRG) in terms of a single block, instead of the standard left and right blocks used in the construction of the superblock. This version of the DMRG, which we call the puncture…
The renormalization group (RG) is known to provide information about radiative corrections beyond the order in perturbation theory to which one has calculated explicitly. We first demonstrate the effect of the renormalization scheme used on…
We obtain the renormalization group(RG) functions for the massless scalar field theory where symmetry breaking occurs radiatively. After obtaining the effective potential for the radiative symmetry breaking scheme from that of the minimal…
We discuss the matching conditions and renormalization group evolution of non-relativistic QCD. A variant of the conventional MS-bar scheme is proposed in which a subtraction velocity nu is used rather than a subtraction scale mu. We derive…
It has been shown recently that the introduction of an unphysical $\epsilon$-scalar mass $\tilde{m}$ is necessary for the proper renormalization of softly broken supersymmetric theories by dimensional reduction ($\drbar$). In these…

A key problem in making precise perturbative QCD predictions is to set the proper renormalization scale of the running coupling. The conventional scale-setting procedure assigns an arbitrary range and an arbitrary systematic error to…
