We continue to study an infinite-parametric family of gauge theories with an arbitrary function of the self-dual part of the field strength as the Lagrangian. The arising one-loop divergences are computed using the background field method.…
We review recent results in the theory of numbers and single-valued functions on the complex plane which arise in quantum field theory. We use the results to calculate the renormalization functions $\beta$, $\gamma$, $\gamma_m$ of…
Drawing on analogies with the commutative case, the Wilsonian picture of renormalization is developed for noncommutative scalar field theory. The dimensionful noncommutativity parameter, theta, induces several new features. Fixed-points are…
We define the beta-function of a perturbative quantum field theory in the mathematical framework introduced by Costello -- combining perturbative renormalization and the BV formalism -- as the cohomology class of a certain element in the…
We present the perturbative renormalization group functions of $O(n)$-symmetric $\phi^4$ theory in $4-2\varepsilon$ dimensions to the sixth loop order in the minimal subtraction scheme. In addition, we estimate diagrams without…
We investigate $\beta$-functions of quantum gravity using dimensional regularisation. In contrast to minimal subtraction, a non-minimal renormalisation scheme is employed which is sensitive to power-law divergences from mass terms or…
We show that the one- and two-loop $\beta$-functions of the closed, bosonic string can be written in a manifestly O($D$,$D$)-covariant form. Based on this result, we prove that 1) Poisson-Lie symmetric $\sigma$-models are two-loop…
We determine the three-loop $\overline{\text{MS}}$ quartic $ \beta $-function for the most general renormalisable four-dimensional theories. A general parametrization of the $ \beta $-function is compared to known $ \beta $-functions for…
We investigate the possibility of an ultraviolet (UV) zero in the $n$-loop beta function of a $\lambda (\vec{\phi}^2)^2$ field theory with an $N$-component scalar field, $\vec{\phi}$, in four spacetime dimensions, up to the level of $n=5$…
We develop a systematic perturbative expansion and compute the one-loop two-points, three-points and four-points correlation functions in a non-commutative version of the U(N) Wess-Zumino-Witten model in different regimes of the…
The $ \beta $-functions of marginal couplings are known to be closely related to the $ A $-function through Osborn's equation, derived using the local renormalization group. It is possible to derive strong constraints on the…
Differential regularization is applied to a field theory of a non-relativistic charged boson field $\phi$ with $\lambda (\phi {}^{*} \phi)^2$ self-interaction and coupling to a statistics-changing $U(1)$ Chern-Simons gauge field.…
A classically scale-invariant 6d analog of the 4d Yang-Mills theory is the 4-derivative $ (\nabla F)^2 + F^3$ gauge theory with two independent couplings. Motivated by a search for a perturbatively conformal but possibly non-unitary 6d…
We present general four-loop template $\beta$-functions and anomalous field dimensions for renormalisable scalar-fermion theories in three dimensions. By imposing $\mathcal{N}=1$ and $\mathcal{N}=2$ supersymmetry, we obtain relations…
We compute the three-loop beta functions of long-range multi-scalar models with general quartic interactions. The long-range nature of the models is encoded in a kinetic term with a Laplacian to the power $0<\zeta<1$, rendering the…
The one-component $\lambda\phi^4$ theory in four dimensions in the spontaneously broken symmetry phase has a non-trivial, non-perturbative sector which can be studied by means of a duality transformation of its Ising limit. Duality maps…
The $\beta$-functions describe how couplings run under the renormalization group flow in field theories. In general, all couplings that respect the symmetry and locality are generated under the renormalization group flow, and the exact…
The leading term in the gauge coupling beta function comes due to interaction of gauge field with gravitons. It is shown to be a universal quantity for all gauge theories. At one-loop it is found to be zero in four dimensions. This is…
The paper studies the quantum action for the four-dimensional real $\phi^4$-theory in the case of a general formulation using the background field method. The three-loop renormalization is performed with the usage of a cutoff regularization…
The most general version of a renormalizable $d=4$ theory corresponding to a dimensionless higher-derivative scalar field model in curved spacetime is explored. The classical action of the theory contains $12$ independent functions, which…
