In previous work we have presented scheme-independent calculations of physical properties of operators at a conformally invariant infrared fixed point in an asymptotically free gauge theory with gauge group $G$ and $N_f$ fermions in a…
We study the critical behavior of the semi-infinite Gross-Neveu-Yukawa model, a quantum field theory describing Dirac fermions interacting with bosonic fields via a Yukawa coupling. We consider Neumann and Dirichlet boundary conditions for…
We present the first study of the discrete $\beta$-function of the $ SU(3) $ gauge theory with 10 massless domain-wall fermions in the fundamental representation. The renormalized coupling is obtained by the finite-volume gradient flow…
We consider a non-Abelian gauge theory with $N_f$ fermions and discuss the possible existence of a non-trivial UV fixed point at large $N_f$. Specifically, we study the anomalous dimension of the (rescaled) glueball operator $\text{Tr}\…
We discuss qualitative behavior of the SU(N) gauge beta functions in QCD with many massless flavors. Non-perturbative beta functions can be obtained by extracting the renormalized trajectories in the exact renormalization group framework.…
We consider defect operators in scalar field theories in dimensions $d=4-\epsilon $ and $d=6-\epsilon$ with self-interactions given by a general marginal potential. In a double scaling limit, where the bulk couplings go to zero and the…
We determine central charges, critical exponents and appropriate gradient flow relations for nonsupersymmetric vector-like and chiral Gauge-Yukawa theories that are fundamental according to Wilson and that feature calculable UV or IR…
We study the chiral Ising, the chiral XY and the chiral Heisenberg models at four-loop order with the perturbative renormalization group in $4-\epsilon$ dimensions and compute critical exponents for the Gross-Neveu-Yukawa fixed points to…
We unveil the general features of the phase diagram for any gauge theory with fermions transforming according to distinct representations of the underlying gauge group, at the four-loop order. We classify and analyze the zeros of the…
We investigate the relativistic SO(2)- and SO(3)-invariant Gross-Neveu-Yukawa field theories for real, rank-two, symmetric, traceless tensor order parameters coupled to $N_{\text{f}}$ flavors of two-component Dirac fermions. These field…
We find a class of fixed point theory for 2- and 3-dimensional non-linear sigma models using Wilsonian renormalization group (WRG) approach. In 2-dimensional case, the fixed point theory is equivalent to the Witten's semi-infinite cigar…
Conformal field theory (CFT) is an extremely powerful tool for explicitly computing critical exponents and correlation functions of statistical mechanics systems at a second order phase transition, or of condensed matter systems at a…
We demonstrate by explicit multi-loop calculation that \gamma-deformed planar N=4 SYM, supplemented with a set of double-trace counter-terms, has two nontrivial fixed points in the recently proposed double scaling limit, combining vanishing…
The canonical Gross-Neveu model for $N$ two-component Dirac fermions in $2+1$ dimensions suffers a continuous phase transition at a critical interaction $g_{c1} \sim 1/N$ at large $N$, at which its continuous symmetry $\text{SO}(2N)$ is…
We present calculations of certain limits of scheme-independent series expansions for the anomalous dimensions of gauge-invariant fermion bilinear operators and for the derivative of the beta function at an infrared fixed point in SU($N_c$)…
We investigate matrix models in three dimensions where the global $\text{SU}(N)$ symmetry acts via the adjoint map. Analyzing their ground state which is homogeneous in space and can carry either a unique or multiple fixed charges, we show…
We study the competition of spin- and charge-density waves and their quantum multicritical behavior for the semimetal-insulator transitions of low-dimensional Dirac fermions. Employing the effective Gross-Neveu-Yukawa theory with two order…
We study mass-type surface defects in a free scalar and Wilson-Fisher (WF) $O(N)$ theories. We obtain exact results for the free scalar defect, including its RG flow and defect Weyl anomaly. We classify phases of such defects at the WF…
We consider an asymptotically free vectorial gauge theory, with gauge group $G$ and $N_f$ fermions in a representation $R$ of $G$, having an infrared fixed point of the renormalization group. We calculate scheme-independent series…
We search for asymptotic safety in a Yukawa system with a chiral $U(N_L)_L\otimes U(1)_R$ symmetry, serving as a toy model for the standard-model Higgs sector. Using the functional RG as a nonperturbative tool, the leading-order derivative…
