Holographic renormalization group flows can be interpreted in terms of effective field theory. Based on such an interpretation, a formula for the running scaling dimensions of gauge-invariant operators along such flows is proposed. The…
Without Lorentz symmetry, generic fixed points of the renormalization group (RG) are labelled by their dynamical (or `Lifshitz') exponent $z$. Hence, a rich variety of possible RG flows arises. The first example is already given by the…
We study the gauge invariance of physical observables in holographic theories under the local diffeomorphism. We find that gauge invariance is intimately related to the holographic renormalisation: the local counter terms defined in the…
The holographic renormalization group flows associated with marginally relevant operators are analyzed. The associated perturbative and non-perturbative beta-functions are calculated and the consistent scalar potentials are identified. The…
We study a class of renormalization group flows on line defects that can be described by a generalized free field with ordered planar contractions on the line. They are realized, for example, in large $N$ gauge theories with matter in the…
The analytical study of confinement in lattice gauge theories (LGTs) remains a difficult task to this day. Taking a geometric perspective on confinement, we develop a real-space renormalization group (RG) formalism for $\mathbb{Z}_2$ LGTs…
The Renormalization Group (RG) is a set of methods that have been instrumental in tackling problems involving an infinite number of degrees of freedom. What all these methods have in common -- which is what explains their success -- is that…
Hamiltonian Truncation (HT) methods provide a powerful numerical approach for investigating strongly coupled QFTs. In this work, we develop HT techniques to analyse a specific Renormalization Group (RG) flow recently proposed in Refs. [1,…
Holographic RG flows dual to QFTs on a squashed $S^3$ are considered in the framework of Einstein dilaton gravity in four dimensions. A general dilaton potential is used and flows are driven by a scalar relevant operator. The general…
We use the holographic method to investigate an RG flow and IR physics of a two-dimensional conformal field theory (CFT) deformed by a relevant scalar operator. On the dual gravity side, a renormalization group (RG) flow from a UV to IR CFT…
We investigate the holographic Renormalization Group (RG) flows and the critical phenomena that take place in the $QFT$'s dual to the d-dimensional cubic Quasi-Topological Gravity coupled to scalar matter. The knowledge of the corresponding…
The partition function of the two-dimensional Ising model is exactly obtained on a lattice with a twisted boundary condition. The continuum limit of the model off the critical temperature is found to give the mass-deformed Ising conformal…
An attempt is made to make precise the connection between Wilson's RG and "Holographic RG" by writing Wilson's RG in a holographic form. A functional formulation is given for the exact RG evolution of a scalar field in $d$ (flat)…
We discuss the holographic c-function and describe an algorithm for the practical computation of the changing central charge in arbitrary RG-flows. One example is worked out in detail. The renormalisation procedure of…
A formalism is presented which allows covariant three-dimensional bound-state equations to be derived systematically from four-dimensional ones without the use of delta-functions. The amplitude for the interaction of a bound state described…
A generalization of the Renormalization Group, which describes order-parameter fluctuations in finite systems, is developed in the specific context of percolation. This ``Stochastic Renormalization Group'' (SRG) expresses statistical…
We investigate non-Abelian gauge theories within a Wilsonian Renormalisation Group approach. Our main question is: How close can one get to a gauge invariant flow, despite the fact that a Wilsonian coarse-graining seems to be incompatible…
The renormalization group flow in a general renormalizable gauge theory with a simple gauge group in 3+1 dimensions is analyzed. The flow of the ratios of the Yukawa couplings and the gauge coupling is described in terms of a bounded…
We review recent developments in functional renormalization group (RG) methods for interacting fermions. These approaches aim at obtaining an unbiased picture of competing Fermi liquid instabilities in the low-dimensional models like the…
Using holography, we study the entanglement entropy of strongly coupled field theories perturbed by operators that trigger an RG flow from a conformal field theory in the ultraviolet (UV) to a new theory in the infrared (IR). The…
