Israel M. Gelfand gave a geometric interpretation for general hypergeometric functions as sections of the tautological bundle over a complex Grassmannian $G_{k,n}$. In particular, the beta function can be understood in terms of $G_{2,3}$.…
We consider the dynamics of gauge-Yukawa theories in the presence of a large number of matter constituents. We first review the current status for the renormalization group equations of gauge-fermion theories featuring also semi-simple…
For many years, theorists have calculated formulas for useful quantities in general gauge-Yukawa theories. However, these cookbooks are often very difficult to use since the general notation is far removed from practical model building. In…
The g-function is a measure of degrees of freedom associated to a boundary of two-dimensional quantum field theories. In integrable theories, it can be computed exactly in a form of the Fredholm determinant, but it is often hard to evaluate…
We present the supersymmetric standard model three-loop $\beta$-functions for gauge and Yukawa couplings and consider the effect of three-loop corrections on the standard running coupling analyses.
It is proposed to use the pinch technique (PT) to obtain the gauge-independent thermal $\beta$ function in a hot Yang-Mills gas. Calculations of the thermal $\beta$ function are performed at one-loop level in four different gauges, (i) the…
The Gell-Mann - Low function \beta(g) in QCD (g=g0^2/16\pi^2 where g0 is the coupling constant in the Lagrangian) is shown to behave in the strong-coupling region as \beta_\infty g^\alpha with \alpha\approx -13, \beta_\infty\sim 10^5.
The new method of nonperturbative calculation of the beta function in the lattice gauge theory is proposed. The method is based on the finite size scaling hypothesis.
The double sigma model with the strong constraints is equivalent to a classical theory of the normal sigma model with one on-shell self-duality relation. The one-form gauge field comes from the boundary term. It is the same as the normal…
We compute the $\beta$-function for a massless Yukawa theory in a closed form at the order $\mathcal{O}(1/N_f)$ in the spirit of the expansion in a large number of flavours $N_f$. We find an analytic expression with a finite radius of…
We present the first study of the discrete $\beta$-function of the $ SU(3) $ gauge theory with 10 massless domain-wall fermions in the fundamental representation. The renormalized coupling is obtained by the finite-volume gradient flow…
Nonperturbative determinations of the renormalization group $\beta$ function are essential to connect lattice results to perturbative predictions of strongly coupled gauge theories and to determine the $\Lambda$ parameter or the strong…
Using a gauge invariant exact renormalization group, we show how to compute the effective action, and extract the physics, whilst manifestly preserving gauge invariance at each and every step. As an example we give an elegant computation of…
Scenario according to which the SU(2)-gluodynamics is a theory with a nontrivial fixed point is analyzed from the point of view of the modern Monte-Carlo (MC) lattice data. It is found that an assumption of the first order fixed point g=g_f…
The NSVZ $\beta$ functions in two-dimensional $\mathcal N=(0,2)$ supersymmetric models are revisited. We construct and discuss a broad class of such models using the gauge formulation. All of them represent direct analogs of…
The main object of this paper is to present generalizations of gamma, beta and hypergeometric functions. Some recurrence relations, transformation formulas, operation formulas and integral representations are obtained for these new…
We investigate gaugino condensation in the framework of the strongly coupled heterotic $E_8 \times E_8$ string (M--theory). Supersymmetry is broken in a hidden sector and gravitational interactions induce soft breaking parameters in the…

We show that in a Wilsonian renormalization scheme with zero-momentum subtraction point the massless Wess-Zumino model satisfies the non-renormalization theorem; the finite renormalization of the superpotential appearing in the usual…
We present a construction kit for calculating two-loop beta functions in N=1 supersymmetric theories for the operators of the superpotential using supergraph techniques. In particular, it allows to compute the beta functions for every…
