We investigate the issue of regularization/renormalization in the presence of a nontrivial background in the case of 1+1-(supersymmetric) solitons. In particular we study and compare the commonly employed regularization methods (mode-…
In this paper we present a tractable approach for regularizing randomly placed points, by splitting them into two subsets: the first is generated by means of the Mat\'ern hard-core point process, while the remaining points constitute the…
Real-space renormalization-group techniques for quantum systems can be divided into two basic categories - those capable of representing correlations following a simple boundary (or area) law, and those which are not. I discuss the scaling…
Several clustering methods (e.g., Normalized Cut and Ratio Cut) divide the Min Cut cost function by a cluster dependent factor (e.g., the size or the degree of the clusters), in order to yield a more balanced partitioning. We, instead,…
We consider the problem of density estimation on Riemannian manifolds. Density estimation on manifolds has many applications in fluid-mechanics, optics and plasma physics and it appears often when dealing with angular variables (such as…

A method is introduced to renormalize the zero-range interaction for use in mean-field and many-body theory, starting from two-body calculations. The density-renormalized delta-function interaction is then applied using mean-field theory to…
We investigate the renormalization of ``nonlocal'' interactions in an effective field theory using dimensional regularization with minimal subtraction. In a scalar field theory, we write an integro-differential renormalization group…

We show that the Renormalization Group formalism allows to compute with accuracy the zero temperature correlation functions and particle densities of quantum systems.
We apply the dimensional regularization procedure to treat an ultraviolet divergence occurring in the framework of the nuclear many-body problem. We consider the second--order correction (beyond the mean-field approximation) to the equation…
