We use two renormalization techniques, Effective Field Theory and the Similarity Renormalization Group, to solve simple Schr{\"o}dinger equations with delta-function potentials in one and two dimensions. The familiar one-dimensional…
Quantum field theories require a cutoff to regulate divergences that result from local interactions, and yet physical results can not depend on the value of this cutoff. The renormalization group employs a transformation that changes the…
Schr\"odinger equation with potential $-g/r^2$ exhibits a limit cycle, described in the literature in a broad range of contexts using various regularizations of the singularity at $r=0$. Instead, we use the renormalization group…

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…
Renormalization is one of the deepest ideas in physics, yet its exact implementation in any interesting problem is usually very hard. In the present work, following the approach by Glazek and Maslowski in the flat space, we will study the…
