Mass independent renormalization group functions in massive theories are related to normalization properties of the Green functions in the asymptotic region, where mass effects are neglected. In this special form the renormalization group…
Following Symanzik we argue that the Schr\"odinger functional in lattice gauge theories without matter fields has a well-defined continuum limit. Due to gauge invariance no extra counter terms are required. The Schr\"odinger functional is,…
We renormalize various scalar field theories with a $\phi^n$ self interaction such as $n$ $=$ $5$, $7$ and $9$ in their respective critical dimensions which are non-integer. The renormalization group functions for the $O(N)$ symmetric…
Two-loop Feynman integrals of the massive $\phi^4_d$ field theory are explicitly obtained for generic space dimensions $d$. Corresponding renormalization-group functions are expressed in a compact form in terms of Gauss hypergeometric…
We suggest a method of introducing the Gribov--Zwanziger horizon functional, $H$, for Yang--Mills theories by using the composite fields technique: $\sigma (\phi )=H$. A different form of the same horizon functional in gauges $\chi $ and…

The Schr\"odinger functional (SF) is a powerful and widely used tool for the treatment of a variety of problems in renormalization and related areas. Albeit offering many conceptual advantages, one major downside of the SF scheme is the…
The "exact" or "functional" renormalization group equation describes the renormalization group flow of the effective average action $\Gamma_k$. The ordinary effective action $\Gamma_0$ can be obtained by integrating the flow equation from…

We study the regularization and renormalization of the Yang-Mills theory in the framework of the manifestly invariant formalism, which consists of a higher covariant derivative with an infinitely many Pauli-Villars fields. Unphysical…
We obtain the exact beta function for $N=2$ SUSY $SU(2)$ Yang-Mills theory and prove the nonperturbative Renormalization Group Equation $$ \partial_\Lambda{\cal F}(a,\Lambda)= {\Lambda\over \Lambda_0}\partial_{\Lambda_0}{\cal…
Renormalization group equations play a central role in effective field theories, both maintaining perturbative control and allowing one to determine the correct low-energy phenomenology. In this work, we complete the one-loop…
We formulate conditions under which the asymptotically expanded spectral action on an almost commutative manifold is renormalizable as a higher-derivative gauge theory. These conditions are of graph theoretical nature, involving the…
We reconsider the renormalizability of topological Yang-Mills field theories in (anti-)self-dual Landau gauges. By employing algebraic renormalization techniques we show that there is only one independent renormalization. Moreover, due to…
With the introduction of shadow fields, we demonstrate the renormalizability of the N=4 super-Yang--Mills theory in component formalism, independently of the choice of UV regularization. Remarkably, by using twisted representations, one…
A modified generally covariant Yang-Mills action, which depends on the complex structure of spacetime and not its metric, is proved to be renormalizable. This proof makes this Lagrangian model the unique known generally covariant four…
