The Hierarchical Reference Theory (HRT) of fluids is a general framework for the description of phase transitions in microscopic models of classical and quantum statistical physics. The foundations of HRT are briefly reviewed in a…
We consider an effective Hamiltonian description of critical wetting transitions in systems with short-range forces at a corrugated (periodic) wall. We are able to recover the results obtained previously from a `microscopic'…
The phi4 scalar field theory in three dimensions, prototype for the study of phase transitions, is investigated by means of the hierarchical reference theory (HRT) in its smooth cutoff formulation. The critical behavior is described by…
We consider the equilibrium behavior of fluids imbibed in disordered mesoporous media, including their gas-liquid critical point when present. Our starting points are on the one hand a description of the fluid/solid-matrix system as a…
We address three problems faced by effective interfacial Hamiltonian models of wetting based on a single collective coordinate \ell representing the position of the unbinding fluid interface. Problems (P1) and (P2) refer to the predictions…
A smooth cut-off formulation of the Hierarchical Reference Theory (HRT) is developed and applied to a Yukawa fluid. The HRT equations are derived and numerically solved leading to: the expected renormalization group structure in the…
We provide a comprehensive presentation of the Hierarchical Reference Theory (HRT) in the smooth cut-off formulation. A simple and self-consistent derivation of the hierarchy of differential equations is supplemented by a comparison with…
We study the effect of thermal fluctuations on the wetting phase transitions of infinite order and of continuously varying order, recently discovered within a mean-field density-functional model for three-phase equilibria in systems with…
The recently developed tensor renormalization-group (TRG) method provides a highly precise technique for deriving thermodynamic and critical properties of lattice Hamiltonians. The TRG is a local coarse-graining transformation, with the…
The partition function of the two-dimensional Ising model is exactly obtained on a lattice with a twisted boundary condition. The continuum limit of the model off the critical temperature is found to give the mass-deformed Ising conformal…
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 consider fluid wetting on a corrugated substrate using effective interfacial Hamiltonian theory and show that breaking the translational invariance along the wall can induce an 'unbending' phase transition in addition to unbinding. Both…
We develop the theory of Hamiltonian Truncation (HT) to systematically study RG flows that require the renormalization of coupling constants. This is a necessary step towards making HT a fully general method for QFT calculations. We apply…
Recent analyses of wetting in the semi-infinite two dimensional Ising model, extended to include both a surface coupling enhancement and a surface field, have shown that the wetting transition may be effectively first-order and that…
We present real--space renormalization group (RG) calculations of the critical properties of the random--field Ising model on a cubic lattice in three dimensions. We calculate the RG flows in a two--parameter truncation of the Hamiltonian…
We consider two-dimensional ($d=2$) systems with short-ranged microscopic interactions, where interface unbinding (wetting) transitions occur in the limit of vanishing temperature $T$. For $T=0$ the transition is characterized by…
At low temperatures, the classical two-dimensional random bond Ising model undergoes a frustration-driven ferromagnet-to-paramagnet transition controlled by a zero-temperature fixed point separating ferromagnet and spin glass phases. We…
The excess adsorption $\Gamma $ in two-dimensional Ising strips $(\infty \times L)$ subject to identical boundary fields, at both one-dimensional surfaces decaying in the orthogonal direction $j$ as $-h_1j^{-p}$, is studied for various…
We present a hybrid lattice Hamiltonian truncation method that integrates the numerical renormalization group (NRG) with a truncated lattice integrable spectrum. The technique is tailored for generic deformations of integrable lattice…
The process of renormalisation in nonperturbative Hamiltonian Effective Field Theory (HEFT) is examined in the $\Delta$-resonance scattering channel. As an extension of effective field theory incorporating the L\"uscher formalism, HEFT…
