We study the UV behaviour of actions including integer powers of scalar curvature and even powers of scalar fields with Functional Renormalization Group techniques. We find UV fixed points where the gravitational couplings have non-trivial…
The renormalization-group improved effective potential ---to leading-log and in the linear curvature approximation--- is constructed for ``finite'' theories in curved spacetime. It is not trivial and displays a quite interesting,…
Koopman operator theory is shown to be directly related to the renormalization group. This observation allows us, with no assumption of translational invariance, to compute the critical exponents $\eta$ and $\delta$, as well as ratios of…
We show that the diagrammatic approach to quantum spin systems developed in a seminal work by Vaks, Larkin, and Pikin [Sov. Phys. JETP 26, 188 (1968)] can be embedded in the framework of the functional renormalization group. The crucial…
The exact renormalization group methods is applied to many fermion systems with short-range attractive force. The strength of the attractive fermion-fermion interaction is determined from the vacuum scattering length. A set of approximate…
We develop a systematic multi-local expansion of the Polchinski-Wilson exact renormalization group (ERG) equation. Integrating out explicitly the non local interactions, we reduce the ERG equation obeyed by the full interaction functional…
We propose a gauge invariant formulation of the exact renormalization group equation for nonsupersymmetric pure U(N) Yang-Mills theory, based on the construction by Tim Morris. In fact we show that our renormalization group equation amounts…
A new block spin renormalization group transformation for SU(N) gauge models is proposed near the non-trivial fixed point in perturbation theory and thereby the expectation values of various Wilson loops on the renormalized trajectory near…
We address the issue why the phase diagrams for quasi-one-dimensional systems are rather simple, while the renormalization group equations behind the scene are non-linear and messy looking. The puzzle is answered in two steps -- we first…
We study exact renormalization group equations in the framework of the effective average action. We present analytical solutions for the scale dependence of the potential in a variety of models. These solutions display a rich spectrum of…
Gauge theories in axial gauges are studied using Exact Renormalisation Group flows. We introduce a background field in the infrared regulator, but not in the gauge fixing, in contrast to the usual background field gauge. It is shown how…
We discuss the realization of conformal invariance for Wilson actions using the formalism of the exact renormalization group. This subject has been studied extensively in the recent works of O. J. Rosten. The main purpose of this paper is…
In the context of very general exact renormalization groups, it will be shown that, given a vertex expansion of the Wilsonian effective action, remarkable progress can be made without making any approximations. Working in QCD we will…
We present a formulation of non-Abelian gauge theories in general axial gauges using a Wilsonian (or 'Exact') Renormalisation Group. No 'spurious' propagator divergencies are encountered in contrast to standard perturbation theory. Modified…
