Inclusion of the QED higher order radiative corrections in the two-photon process, e+e- -> e+e- mu+mu-, is examined by means of the structure function and the parton shower. Results are compared with the exact $O(\alpha)$ calculations and…
The Numerical Renormalization Group method (NRG) has been developed by Wilson in the 1970's to investigate the Kondo problem. The NRG allows the non-perturbative calculation of static and dynamic properties for a variety of impurity models.…

Electrical Impedance Tomography (EIT) is a non-invasive imaging technique that reconstructs conductivity distributions within a body from boundary measurements. However, EIT reconstruction is hindered by its ill-posed nonlinear inverse…
We present a prescription to calculate the quadratic and logarithmic divergent parts of several integrals employing a cutoff in a coherent way, i.e. in total agreement with symmetry requirements. As examples we consider one-loop Ward…
In these notes the exact renormalization group formulation of the scalar theory is briefly reviewed. This regularization scheme is then applied to supersymmetric theories. In case of a supersymmetric gauge theory it is also shown how to…
Renormalization Group (RG) techniques have been successfully employed in quantum field theory and statistical physics. Here we apply RG methods to study the non-linear stages of structure formation in the Universe. Exact equations for the…
In constructive quantum field theory (CQFT) it is customary to first regularise the theory at finite UV and IR cut-off. Then one first removes the UV cutoff using renormalisation techniques applied to families of CQFT's labelled by finite…
