The exact renormalization group methods is applied to many fermion systems with short-range attractive force. The strength of the attractive fermion-fermion interaction is determined from the vacuum scattering length. A set of approximate…
We report on the current status of recent efforts to develop the Density Matrix Renormalization Group method for use in large-scale nuclear shell-model calculations.
Satisfiability is a classic problem in computational complexity theory, in which one wishes to determine whether an assignment of values to a collection of Boolean variables exists in which all of a collection of clauses composed of logical…
We argue that the sharp-cutoff Wilson renormalization group provides a powerful tool for the analysis of second-order and weakly first-order phase transitions. In particular, in a computation no harder than the calculation of the 1-loop…
I discuss the renormalisation group approach to gravity, its link to Steven Weinberg's asymptotic safety scenario, and give an overview of results with applications to particle physics and cosmology.
This paper argues that the ideas underlying the renormalization group technique used to characterize phase transitions in condensed matter systems could be useful for distinguishing computational complexity classes. The paper presents a…
We give a rigorous nonperturbative construction of a massless discrete trajectory for Wilson's exact renormalization group. The model is a three dimensional Euclidean field theory with a modified free propagator. The trajectory realizes the…
This is brief and hopefully friendly, with basic notions, a few different perspectives, and references with more information in various directions.
A recently proposed renormalization group approach to dimensional crossover in quasi-one-dimensional quantum antiferromagnets is improved and then shown to give identical results, in some cases, to those obtained earlier.
The aim of these lectures is to describe a construction, as self-contained as possible, of renormalized gauge theories. Following a suggestion of Polchinski, we base our analysis on the Wilson renormalization group method. After a…
The renormalization group plays an essential role in many areas of physics, both conceptually and as a practical tool to determine the long-distance low-energy properties of many systems on the one hand and on the other hand search for…
In some cases the state of a quantum system with a large number of subsystems can be approximated efficiently by the density matrix renormalization group, which makes use of redundancies in the description of the state. Here we show that…
A method of ``blocking'' triangulations that rests on the self-similarity feature of dynamically triangulated random manifolds is proposed. The method is used to define the renormalization group for random geometries. As an illustration,…
We build a toy model of the Wilson-Kogut renormalization group in one dimensional Quantum Mechanics. With it, we show how the RG flow in the space of 1-D S matrices of finite range defines, as renormalized interactions, the known four…
We derive the Wilsonian renormalization group equation in two dimensional ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models. This equation shows that the sigma models on compact Einstein K\"{a}hler manifolds are aymptotically free. This…
We discuss representations of monogenic functions over very regular groups.
We investigate an operator renormalization group method to extract and describe the relevant degrees of freedom in the evolution of partial differential equations. The proposed renormalization group approach is formulated as an analytical…
We review the physics of the ultraviolet renormalon. This mini-review is intended to be a sequel to the review by the same authors at the "QCD '96" conference last year (hep-ph/9610492).
We review our study of the Wilsonian renormalization group (WRG) analysis for nuclear current operators. We apply WRG method to axial-current operators derived from various approaches and obtain the unique effective low-energy operator.
A brief introduction is given to the topic of Smith normal forms of incidence matrices. A general discussion of techniques is illustrated by some classical examples. Some recent advances are described and the limits of our current…
