We study the one-loop renormalization and evolution of the couplings in scalar field theories of the Lifshitz type, i.e. with different scaling in space and time. These theories are unitary and renormalizable, thanks to higher spatial…
We present a general method to study weak-coupling instabilities of a large class of interacting electron models in a controlled and unbiased way. Quite generally, the electron gas is unstable towards a superconducting state even in the…
We analyze the possibility to construct a self-consistent gauge field theory in $D>4$. We first look for the cancellation of the UV divergences in SUSY theories. Then, following the Wilson RG approach, we study the RG equation for the gauge…

We construct and analyze the phase diagram of a self-interacting matrix field in two dimensions coupled to the curvature of the non-commutative truncated Heisenberg space. In the infinite size limit, the model reduces to the renormalizable…
It is known that in low dimensions WDVV equations can be rewritten as commuting quasilinear bi-Hamiltonian systems. We extend some of these results to arbitrary dimension $N$ and arbitrary scalar product $\eta$. In particular, we show that…

We argue that the renormalizability of interacting quantum field theory on the curved-space background with an additional external antisymmetric tensor (two-form) field requires nonminimal interaction of the antisymmetric field with quantum…
Very high energy physics needs a coherent description of the four fundamental forces. Non-commutative geometry is a promising mathematical framework which already allowed to unify the general relativity and the standard model, at the…
