It has been shown recently that by turning on a large noncommutativity parameter, the description of tachyon condensation in string theory can be drastically simplified. We reconsider these issues from the standpoint of string field theory,…
We analyze the tachyon field in the bosonic open string theory in a constant B-field background using the background independent open string field theory. We show that in the large noncommutativity limit the action of tachyon field is given…
Non-perturbative renormalization group approach suggests that a large class of nonlinear sigma models are renormalizable in three dimensional space-time, while they are non-renormalizable in perturbation theory. ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric…

We give a wilsonian formulation of non-abelian gauge theories explicitly consistent with axial gauge Ward identitities. The issues of unitarity and dependence on the quantization direction are carefully investigated. A wilsonian computation…
The free energy is shown to decrease along Wilson renormalization group trajectories, in a dimension-independent fashion, for $d>2.$ The argument assumes the monotonicity of the cutoff function, and positivity of a spectral representation…
