I explain the methods that are used in field theory for problems involving typical momenta on two or more widely disparate scales. The principal topics are: (a) renormalization, which treats the problem of taking an ultra-violet cut-off to…
Turning the divergent epsilon-expansion into a numerically sensible algorithm, relies on the knowledge of the behaviour of the large order contributions. Two different pictures are known to compete there. The first one was based on…
An ill-defined integral equation for modeling the mass-spectrum of mesons is regulated with an additional but unphysical parameter. This parameter dependance is removed by renormalization. Illustrative graphical examples are given.
We show how the renormalons emerge from the renormalization group equation with a priori no reference to any Feynman diagrams. The proof is rather given by recasting the renormalization group equation as a resurgent equation studied in the…
We review the rigorous work on many Fermions models which lead to the first constructions of interacting Fermi liquids in two dimensions, and allowed to prove that there are different scaling regimes in two dimensions, depending on the…
Recurrent neural networks (RNNs) are widely used throughout neuroscience as models of local neural activity. Many properties of single RNNs are well characterized theoretically, but experimental neuroscience has moved in the direction of…
Recurrence networks are a powerful nonlinear tool for time series analysis of complex dynamical systems. {While there are already many successful applications ranging from medicine to paleoclimatology, a solid theoretical foundation of the…
Certain power-counting non-renormalizable theories, including the most general self-interacting scalar fields in four and three dimensions and fermions in two dimensions, have a simplified renormalization structure. For example, in…
We discuss the subleading contact interactions, or counterterms, of the triplet channels of nucleon-nucleon scattering in the framework of chiral effective field theory, with S and P waves as the examples. The triplet channels are special…
This is the first of two papers in which we study real and virtual photon-proton scattering in a nonperturbative framework. We classify different contributions to this process and identify the leading contributions at high energies. We then…
We investigate the structure of holographic renormalization in the presence of sources for irrelevant operators. By working perturbatively in the sources we avoid issues related to the non-renormalizability of the dual field theory. We find…
Physical nature of dimensional crossovers in weakly coupled Hubbard chains and ladders has been discussed within the framework of the perturbative renormalization-group approach. The difference between these two cases originates from…
I summarize what we know of renormalons from the 1970s and 80s: their uses and theoretical status. It is emphasized that renormalons in QCD are closely related to the Wilsonean operator product expansion (OPE) - a setup ideally suited for…
We perform conformal perturbation theory by marginal operators to first order. A suitable renormalization method is needed that makes the conformal invariance of the deformed correlation functions manifest. Combining the embedding space…
Adaptive perturbation is a new method for perturbatively computing the eigenvalues and eigenstates of quantum mechanical Hamiltonians that heretofore were not believed to be obtainable by such methods. The novel feature of adaptive…
We investigate the high-order behavior of perturbative matching conditions in effective field theories. These series are typically badly divergent, and are not Borel summable due to infrared and ultraviolet renormalons which introduce…
We review the possibility to use the renormalons emerging in the perturbation series of the twist-2 part of the nonsinglet structure functions FL, F2, F3, and g1 to make approximate predictions for the magnitude of the appertaining twist-4…
We investigate the principal chiral model between two and four dimensions by means of a non perturbative Wilson-like renormalization group equation. We are thus able to follow the evolution of the effective coupling constants within this…
We make some comments on the renormalization of Wilson operators (not just vacuum -expectation values of Wilson operators), and the features which arise in Minkowski space. If the Wilson loop contains a straight light-like segment, charge…
We analyze quantitatively the interplay between explicit and implicit renormalization in Nuclear Physics. By explicit renormalization we mean to integrate out higher energy modes below a given cutoff scale using the similarity…
