The functional RG (FRG) approach to pinning of $d$-dimensional manifolds is reexamined at any temperature $T$. A simple relation between the coupling function $R(u)$ and a physical observable is shown in any $d$. In $d=0$ its beta function…
We show how the renormalized force correlator Delta(u), the function computed in the functional RG (FRG) field theory, can be measured directly in numerics and experiments on the dynamics of elastic manifolds in presence of pinning…
We study the replica field theory which describes the pinning of elastic manifolds of arbitrary internal dimension d in a random potential, with the aim of bridging the gap between mean field and renormalization theory. The full effective…
Using the functional renormalization group (FRG) we study the thermal fluctuations of elastic objects, described by a displacement field u and internal dimension d, pinned by a random potential at low temperature T, as prototypes for…
We compute the Functional Renormalization Group (FRG) disorder- correlator function R(v) for d-dimensional elastic manifolds pinned by a random potential in the limit of infinite embedding space dimension N. It measures the equilibrium…
Using functional RG, we reexamine the glass phase of the 2D random-field Sine Gordon model. It is described by a line of fixed points (FP) with a super-roughening amplitude $\bar{(u(0)-u(r))^2} \sim A(T) \ln^2 r $ as temperature $T$ is…
Exact numerical minimization of interface energies is used to test the functional renormalization group (FRG) analysis for interfaces pinned by quenched disorder. The fixed-point function R(u) (the correlator of the coarse-grained disorder)…
In an earlier publication, we have introduced a method to obtain, at large N, the effective action for d-dimensional manifolds in a N-dimensional disordered environment. This allowed to obtain the Functional Renormalization Group (FRG)…
Using one loop functional RG we study two problems of pinned elastic systems away from their equilibrium or steady states. The critical regime of the depinning transition is investigated starting from a flat initial condition. It exhibits…
We develop a systematic multi-local expansion of the Polchinski-Wilson exact renormalization group (ERG) equation. Integrating out explicitly the non local interactions, we reduce the ERG equation obeyed by the full interaction functional…
The statistical correlations of two copies of a d-dimensional elastic manifold embedded in slightly different frozen disorder are studied using the Functional Renormalization Group to one-loop accuracy, order O(eps = 4-d). Determining the…
We present a functional renormalization group (fRG) study of the two dimensional Hubbard model, performed with an algorithmic implementation which lifts some of the common approximations made in fRG calculations. In particular, in our fRG…
The renormalization-group (RG) approach proposed earlier by Shankar for interacting spinless fermions at $T=0$ is extended to the case of non-zero temperature and spin. We study a model with $SU(N)$-invariant short-range effective…
A formalism for electronic-structure calculations is presented that is based on the functional renormalization group (FRG). The traditional FRG has been formulated for systems that exhibit a translational symmetry with an associated Fermi…
We apply the finite-temperature renormalization-group (RG) to a model based on an effective action with a short-range repulsive interaction and a rotation invariant Fermi surface. The basic quantities of Fermi liquid theory, the Landau…
Various aspects of the Exact Renormalization Group (ERG) are explored, starting with a review of the concepts underpinning the framework and the circumstances under which it is expected to be useful. A particular emphasis is placed on the…
Finite temperature density functional theory requires representations for the internal energy, entropy, and free energy as functionals of the local density field. A central formal difficulty for an orbital-free representation is…
We show how Fermi liquid theory results can be systematically recovered using a renormalization group (RG) approach. Considering a two-dimensional system with a circular Fermi surface, we derive RG equations at one-loop order for the…
A general analysis of line defect renormalisation group (RG) flows in the $\varepsilon$ expansion below $d=4$ dimensions is undertaken. The defect beta function for general scalar-fermion bulk theories is computed to next-to-leading order…
The stability of nonrelativistic fermionic systems to interactions is studied within the Renormalization Group framework. A brief introduction to $\phi^4$ theory in four dimensions and the path integral formulation for fermions is given.…
