The off-shell structure of the string sigma model is investigated. In the open bosonic string, nonperturbative effects are shown to depend crucially on the regularization scheme. A scheme retaining the notion of string width reproduces the…
An exact renormalization group equation is written down for the world sheet theory describing the bosonic open string in general backgrounds. Loop variable techniques are used to make the equation gauge invariant. This is worked out…
We consider the ordinary and noncommutative Dirac-Born-Infeld theories within the open string sigma-model. First, we propose a renormalization scheme, hybrid point splitting regularization, that leads directly to the Seiberg-Witten…
The renormalization group approach towards the string representation of non abelian gauge theories translates, in terms of the string sigma model beta function equations, the renormalization group evolution of the gauge coupling constant…
We present a nonperturbative renormalization group solution of the Gell-Mann--Levy $\sigma$-model which was originally proposed as a phenomenological description of the dynamics of nucleons and mesons. In our version of the model the…
We study the Renormalization Group (RG) flow of critical bosonic background fields in the framework of the RG approach to string theory. In this approach quantum field theory beta-functions are the extra inputs in solving the string theory…
The renormalization group flow in two-dimensional field theories that are coupled to gravity has unusual features: First, the flow equations are second order in derivatives. Second, in the presence of handles the flow has quantum mechanical…
Manifest T-duality covariance of the one-loop renormalization group flows is shown for a generic bosonic sigma model with an abelian isometry, by referring a set of previously derived consistency conditions to the tangent space of the…
We describe a set of methods to calculate gauge theory renormalization constants from string theory, all based on a consistent prescription to continue off shell open bosonic string amplitudes. We prove the consistency of our prescription…
A mass parameter for the gauge bosons in gauge-fixed four-dimensional Yang-Mills theory can be accommodated in a local and manifestly BRST-invariant action. The construction is based on the Faddeev-Popov method involving a nonlinear…
We discuss the generalization of the local renormalization group approach to theories in which Weyl symmetry is gauged. These theories naturally correspond to scale invariant - rather than conformal invariant - models in the flat space…
It is shown how to construct renormalization group flows of quantum field theories in real space, as opposed to the usual Wilsonian approach in momentum space. This is achieved by generalizing the multiscale entanglement renormalization…
We investigate the renormalization group (RG) flow of SU(3) lattice gauge theory in a two coupling space with couplings $\beta_{11}$ and $\beta_{12}$ corresponding to $1\times 1$ and $1\times 2$ loops respectively. Extensive numerical…
We analyze the behaviour of heterotic squashed-Wess-Zumino-Witten backgrounds under renormalization-group flow. The flows we consider are driven by perturbation creating extra gauge fluxes. We show how the conformal point acts as an…
We present a unified point of view on the different methods available in the literature to extract gauge theory renormalization constants from the low-energy limit of string theory. The Bern-Kosower method, based on an off-shell…
The derivative expansion of the Wilsonian renormalization group generates additional terms in the effective beta-functions not present in the perturbative approach. Applied to the nonlinear sigma model, to lowest order the vanishing of the…
We construct the Zinn-Justin-Batalin-Vilkovisky action for tachyons and gauge bosons from Witten's 3-string vertex of the bosonic open string without gauge fixing. Through canonical transformations, we find the off-shell, local,…
We derive the Wilsonian renormalization group equation in two dimensional ${\cal N}=2$ supersymmetric nonlinear sigma models. This equation shows that the sigma models on compact Einstein K\"{a}hler manifolds are aymptotically free. This…
The $\beta$-functions describe how couplings run under the renormalization group flow in field theories. In general, all couplings that respect the symmetry and locality are generated under the renormalization group flow, and the exact…
We discuss questions related to renormalization group and to nonperturbative aspects of non-Abelian gauge theories with N=2 and/or N=1 supersymmetry. Results on perturbative and nonperturbative $\beta$ functions of these theories are…
