We consider the NN interaction in pionless effective field theory (EFT) up to next-to-next-to-leading order (NNLO) and use a recursive subtractive renormalization scheme to describe NN scattering in the 1S0 channel. We fix the strengths of…
We discuss the power counting for effective field theories with narrow resonances near a two-body threshold. Close to threshold, the effective field theory is perturbative and only one combination of coupling constants is fine-tuned. In the…
This is the 4-th paper in the series devoted to a systematic study of the problem of mathematically correct formulation of the rules needed to manage an effective field theory. Here we consider the problem of constructing the full set of…
Regularization and renormalization is discussed in the context of low-energy effective field theory treatments of two or more heavy particles (such as nucleons). It is desirable to regulate the contact interactions from the outset by…
We formulate the next-to-leading order nuclear effective field theory without pions in the two-nucleon sector on a spatial lattice, and investigate nonperturbative renormalization group flows in the strong coupling region by diagonalizing…
The low energy structure of a theory containing light and heavy particle species which are separated by a mass gap can adequately be described by an effective theory which contains only the light particles. In this work we present a…
Reduced-density-matrix-functional theory is applied to open-shell systems. We introduce a spin-restricted formulation by appropriately expressing approximate correlation-energy functionals in terms of spin-dependent occupation numbers and…
Based on the analogy with the quantum mechanics of a particle propagating in a {\em complex} potential, we develop a field-theoretical description of the statistical properties of a self-avoiding polymer chain in a random environment. We…
The strong interaction, i.e., quantum chromodynamics at the low energy nuclear regime, is notoriously known to be challenging for predictive modeling. Here, we use the simplest possible nuclear effective field theory (EFT), and show that in…
We propose that the broad architecture of the renormalization group flow in quantum field theories is, at least in part, fixed by unitarity. The precise statement is summarized in the Unitarity Flow Conjecture, which states that the…
Effective Field Theories (EFTs) provide a framework for capturing the effects of yet unseen heavy degrees of freedom in a model-independent manner. However, constructing a complete and minimal set of operators, especially at higher mass…
We present a comprehensive theoretical study of low-energy few nucleon scattering for systems with $A\leq 4$. To this end, we utilize pionless effective field theory, which we employ at next-to-leading order. We show that at this level the…
I show that under certain conditions it is possible to define consistent irrelevant deformations of interacting conformal field theories. The deformations are finite or have a unique running scale ("quasi-finite"). They are made of an…
The core of this thesis is the path-integral formulation of quantum field theory and its ability to describe strongly-coupled quantum many-body systems of finite size. Collective behaviors can be efficiently described in such systems…
We derive a renormalization group formalism for the Randall-Sundrum scenario, where the renormalization scale is set by a floating compactification radius. While inspired by the AdS/CFT conjecture, our results are derived concretely within…
We consider the problem of determining the beta-functions for any reduced effective field theory. Even though not all the Green's functions of a reduced effective field theory are renormalizable, unlike the full effective field theory,…
Renormalization group (RG) invariance implies that the predictions of effective field theory are independent of the momentum cutoffs introduced during regularization. Here we report the first systematic verification of RG invariance for…
Within the realm of contact potentials, the key structures intrinsic of nonperturbative renormalization of $T$-matrices are unraveled using rigorous solutions and an inverse form of algebraic Lippmann-schwinger equation. The intrinsic…
The closed-form Br\"ukner $G$ matrix for nuclear matter is computed in the $^1S_0$ channel of EFT($\not\!\!\pi$) and renormalized in nonperturbative context. The nuclear medium environment yields additional constraints that are consistent…
In the effective field theory formalism nuclear forces are organized as a low energy expansion. Usually the lowest order in this expansion corresponds to the non-perturbative iteration of the one-pion exchange potential and a few…
