After a short elementary introduction to the exact renormalization group for the effective action, I discuss a particular truncation of the hierarchy of flow equations that allows for the determination of the full momentum of the $n$-point…
It is shown by the method of renormalized field theory that in contrast to a statement based on a mathematically ill-defined invariance transformation and found in most of the recent publications on growth models with surface diffusion, the…
We demonstrate that the soft supersymmetry-breaking terms in a N=1 theory can be linked by simple renormalisation group invariant relations which are valid to all orders of perturbation theory. In the special case of finite N=1 theories,…
The standard way of deriving Euler-Lagrange (EL) equations given a point particle action is to vary the trajectory and set the first variation of the action to zero. However, if the action is (i) reparameterisation invariant, and (ii)…
It is shown that the Holographic Renormalization Group can be formulated universally within Quantum Field Theory as (the quantization of) the Hamiltonian flow on the cotangent bundle to the space of gauge-invariant single-trace operators…
We develop a formalism with two different UV cutoff scales, one for space and one for time, appropriate for the richer structure of non-Lorentz invariant quantum field theories. In this formalism there are two different beta-functions for…
We review recent activity in the construction of the renormalization group functions for O(N) scalar and gauge theories in six and higher dimensions. The theories lie in their respective universality classes at the Wilson-Fisher fixed…
The renormalization group is used to resum leading logarithmic contributions of the form alpha_s^{n+1} beta_0^n log^n (Delta/mu) to the gap equation appropriate for high density QCD. The scale dependence of the strong coupling constant…
We construct a new version of the higher covariant derivative regularization for a general ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric gauge theory formulated in terms of ${\cal N}=1$ superfields. This regularization preserves both supersymmetries of the…
The existence of fluctuations together with interactions leads to scale-dependence in the couplings of quantum field theories for the case of quantum fluctuations, and in the couplings of stochastic systems when the fluctuations are of…
We consider the deformations of a supersymmetric quantum field theory by adding spacetime-dependent terms to the action. We propose to describe the renormalization of such deformations in terms of some cohomological invariants, a class of…
We show that there is an infinite group of special automorphisms of the deformed group of diffeomorphisms, which describes parallel transports in Riemannian spaces of any variable curvature. Generators of translations of such group contain…
Using holographic renormalization, we study correlation functions throughout a renormalization group flow between two-dimensional superconformal field theories. The ultraviolet theory is an N=(4,4) CFT which can be thought of as a symmetric…
The effective diagram technique based on the Schwinger-Dyson equations is constructed for N=1 SQED with N_f flavors, regularized by higher derivatives. Using these effective diagrams, it is possible to derive the exact NSVZ relation between…
We present an approximation scheme to solve the Non Perturbative Renormalization Group equations and obtain the full momentum dependence of the $n$-point functions. It is based on an iterative procedure where, in a first step, an initial…
We study $T\bar{T}$-deformed $O(N)$ scalar field theory in two-dimensional spacetime using the functional renormalization group. We derive the $\beta$ functions for the couplings in the system and explore the fixed points. In addition to…
The Wilsonian renormalisation group is applied to a system of two nonrelativistic particles interacting via short-range forces and coupled to an external EM field. By demanding that a fully off-shell one-particle-irreducible 5-point…
We investigate the renormalization group theory of generalized multi-vertex sine-Gordon model by employing the dimensional regularization method and also the Wilson renormalization group method. The vertex interaction is given by…
Holographic models for the pure gauge QCD vacuum are explored. The holographic renormalization of these models is considered as required by a phenomenological approach that takes the $\beta$-functions of the models as the only input. This…
