We discuss the formulation of "thermal renormalization group-equations" and their application to the finite temperature phase-transition of scalar O(N)-theories. Thermal renormalization group-equations allow for a computation of both the…
A simple example of a non-equilibrium system for which fluctuations are important is a system of particles which diffuse and may annihilate in pairs on contact. The renormalization group can be used to calculate the time dependence of the…
We revisit here the problem of generalized cosmology using renormalization group approach. A complete analysis of these cosmologies, where specific models appear as asymptotic fixed-points, is given here along with their linearized…
Effective potential for scalar $\lambda\phi^4$ theory is obtained using the exact renormalization group method which includes both the usual one-loop contribution as well as the dominant higher loop effects. Our numerical calculation…
The isospectral renormalization group is a powerful method to analyze the spectrum of operators in quantum field theory. It was introduced in 1995 [see \cite{BachFrohlichSigal1995}, \cite{BachFrohlichSigal1998}] and since then it has been…
The renormalization group approach is studied for large $N$ models. The approach of Br\'ezin and Zinn-Justin is explained and examined for matrix models. The validity of the approach is clarified by using the vector model as a similar and…
The infrared behaviour of a non-mean field spin-glass system is analysed, and the critical exponent related to the divergence of the correlation length is computed at two loops within the epsilon-expansion technique with two independent…
Techniques based on $n$-particle irreducible effective actions can be used to study systems where perturbation theory does not apply. The main advantage, relative to other non-perturbative continuum methods, is that the hierarchy of…
A proper version of the proto renormalization-group scheme is presented to derive amplitude equations in striped pattern formation with conserved and nonconserved order parameter. In the conserved case, the result preserves the conservation…
This paper is the last of the series investigating renormalization group aspects of stochastic random matrices, including a Wigner-like disorder. We consider the equilibrium dynamics formalism that can be merged with the Ward identities…
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…
Functional renormalization group equations are analytically continued from imaginary Matsubara frequencies to the real frequency axis. On the example of a scalar field with O(N) symmetry we discuss the analytic structure of the flowing…
In physics one attempts to infer the rules governing a system given only the results of imperfect measurements. Hence, microscopic theories may be effectively indistinguishable experimentally. We develop an operationally motivated procedure…
The standard approach to renormalization relies, technically, on the asymptotic perturbation of Gaussian measures embodied in Feynman diagram theory. From a mathematical standpoint this is not good enough, because thereby solving the…
A new singular perturbation method based on the Lie symmetry group is presented to a system of difference equations. This method yields consistent derivation of a renormalization group equation which gives an asymptotic solution of the…
The running coupling constants are introduced in Quantum Mechanics and their evolution is described by the help of the renormalization group equation. The harmonic oscillator and the propagation on curved spaces are presented as examples.…
The influence of nonequilibrium initial values of the order parameter on its evolution at a critical point is described using a renormalization group approach of the field theory. The dynamic critical exponent $\theta'$ of the short time…
We examine the precise connection between the exact renormalisation group with local couplings and the renormalisation of correlation functions of composite operators in scale-invariant theories. A geometric description of theory space…
The field theoretical renormalization group equations have many common features with the equations of dynamical systems. In particular, the manner how Callan-Symanzik equation ensures the independence of a theory from its subtraction point…
We reconsider the choice of renormalization schemes in a differential-equation approach to aid the discussion of the renormalization of the unstable particles and the CKM matrix in the Standard Model. Certain mass dependent schemes do not…
