We study a Hermitian matrix model with the standard quartic potential amended by a $\mathrm{tr}(R\Phi^2)$ term for fixed external matrix $R$. This is motivated by a curvature term in the truncated Heisenberg algebra formulation of the…
In this contribution, we summarize our recent studies of the phase structure of the Grosse-Wulkenhaar model and its connection to renormalizability. Its action contains a special term that couples the field to the curvature of the…
We construct and analyze the phase diagram of a self-interacting matrix field in two dimensions coupled to the curvature of the non-commutative truncated Heisenberg space. In the infinite size limit, the model reduces to the renormalizable…
Non-commutative Euclidean scalar field theory is shown to have an eigenvalue sector which is dominated by a well-defined eigenvalue density, and can be described by a matrix model. This is established using regularizations of R^{2n}_\theta…
We construct and analyze a phase diagram of a self-interacting matrix field coupled to curvature of the non-commutative truncated Heisenberg space. The model reduces to the renormalizable Grosse-Wulkenhaar model in an infinite matrix size…
We report a direct and robust calculation, free from ergodic problems, of the non-uniform-to-uniform (stripe) transition line of noncommutative $\Phi^4_2$ by means of an exact Metropolis algorithm applied to the first non-trivial multitrace…
The Wilsonian renormalization group approach to matrix models is outlined and applied to multitrace matrix models with emphasis on the computation of the fixed points which could describe the phase structure of noncommutative scalar…
Given a matrix model, by combining the Schwinger-Dyson equations with positivity constraints on its solutions, in the large $N$ limit one is able to obtain explicit and numerical bounds on its moments. This technique is known as…
We establish the functional Renormalization Group as an exploratory tool to investigate a possible phase transition between a pre-geometric discrete phase and a geometric continuum phase in quantum gravity. In this paper, based on the…
In this article we provide a multitrace analysis of the theory of noncommutative $\Phi^4$ in two dimensions on the fuzzy sphere ${\bf S}^2_{N,\Omega}$, and on the Moyal-Weyl plane ${\bf R}^{2}_{\theta, \Omega}$, with a non-zero harmonic…
We consider the quartic analogue of the Kontsevich model, which is defined by a measure $\exp(-{N}\,\mathrm{Tr}(E\Phi^2+(\lambda/4)\Phi^4)) d\Phi$ on Hermitian ${N}\times{N}$-matrices, where $E$ is any positive matrix and $\lambda$ a…
We use the Riemann-Hilbert approach, together with string and Toda equations, to study the topological expansion in the quartic random matrix model. The coefficients of the topological expansion are generating functions for the numbers…
A number of 2d and 3d four-fermion models which are renormalizable ---in the $1/N$ expansion--- in a maximally symmetric constant curvature space, are investigated. To this purpose, a powerful method for the exact study of spinor heat…
The normal matrix model with algebraic potential has gained a lot of attention recently, partially in virtue of its connection to several other topics as quadrature domains, inverse potential problems and the Laplacian growth. In this paper…
We study critical and universal behaviors of unitary invariant non-gaussian random matrix ensembles within the framework of the large-N renormalization group. For a simple double-well model we find an unstable fixed point and a stable…
We study a unitary matrix model with Gross-Witten-Wadia weight function and determinant insertions. After some exact evaluations, we characterize the intricate phase diagram. There are five possible phases: an ungapped phase, two different…
Using the saddle point method, we give an explicit form of the planar free energy and Wilson loops of unitary matrix models in the one-cut regime. The multi-critical unitary matrix models are shown to undergo third-order phase transitions…
As a first application of our renormalisation group approach to non-local matrix models [hep-th/0305066], we prove (super-)renormalisability of Euclidean two-dimensional noncommutative \phi^4-theory. It is widely believed that this model is…
The three dimensional nonlinear sigma model is unrenormalizable in perturbative method. By using the $\beta$ function in the nonperturbative Wilsonian renormalization group method, we argue that ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric nonlinear…
I review dynamical chiral symmetry breaking in four-fermi models, including results of Monte Carlo simulations with dynamical fermions. For 2<d<4, where the phase transition defines an ultraviolet fixed point of the renormalisation group,…
