We introduce Wilson's, or Polchinski's, exact renormalization group, and review the Local Potential Approximation as applied to scalar field theory. Focusing on the Polchinski flow equation, standard methods are investigated, and by…
In the large N limit, we show that the Local Potential Approximation to the flow equation for the Legendre effective action, is in effect no longer an approximation, but exact - in a sense, and under conditions, that we determine precisely.…
The functional flow equations for the Legendre effective action, with respect to changes in a smooth cutoff, are approximated by a derivative expansion; no other approximation is made. This results in a set of coupled non-linear…
We test equivalences between different realisations of Wilson's renormalisation group by computing the leading, subleading, and anti-symmetric corrections-to-scaling exponents, and the full fixed point potential for the Ising universality…
The relation between the Wilson-Polchinski and the Litim optimized ERGEs in the local potential approximation is studied with high accuracy using two different analytical approaches based on a field expansion: a recently proposed genuine…
We investigate the structure of Polchinski's formulation of the flow equations for the continuum Wilson effective action. Reinterpretations in terms of I.R. cutoff greens functions are given. A promising non-perturbative approximation…
We show a deterministic constant-time local algorithm for constructing an approximately maximum flow and minimum fractional cut in multisource-multitarget networks with bounded degrees and bounded edge capacities. Locality means that the…
The convergence of the derivative expansion of the exact renormalisation group is investigated via the computation of the beta function of massless scalar lambda phi^4 theory. The derivative expansion of the Polchinski flow equation…
We adapt the precise definition of the flowing effective action in order to obtain a functional flow equation with simple properties close to physical intuition. The simplified flow equation is invariant under local gauge transformations…
We project the Wilson/Polchinski renormalization group equation onto its uniform external field dependent effective free energy and connected Green's functions. The result is a hierarchy of equations which admits a choice of "natural"…
The second functional derivative of the effective potential of pure fermionic field theories is rewritten in a factorized form which facilitates the evaluation of the renormalisation flow rate of the effective action in the Wetterich…
We study a proper-time renormalisation group, which is based on an operator cut-off regularisation of the one-loop effective action. The predictive power of this approach is constrained because the flow is not an exact one. We compare it to…
We study the convergence of the derivative expansion for flow equations. The convergence strongly depends on the choice for the infrared regularisation. Based on the structure of the flow, we explain why optimised regulators lead to better…
Within the Local Potential Approximation to Wilson's, or Polchinski's, exact renormalization group, and for general spacetime dimension, we construct a function, c, of the coupling constants; it has the property that (for unitary theories)…
The standard nonperturbative approaches of renormalization group for tensor models are generally focused on a purely local potential approximation (i.e. involving only generalized traces and product of them) and are showed to strongly…
Self-consistent new renormalization group flow equations for an O(N)-symmetric scalar theory are approximated in next-to-leading order of the derivative expansion. The Wilson-Fisher fixed point in three dimensions is analyzed in detail and…
We investigate the convergence of the derivative expansion of the exact renormalization group, by using it to compute the beta function of scalar field theory. We show that the derivative expansion of the Polchinski flow equation converges…
In this paper we present a new perspective on error analysis of Legendre approximations for differentiable functions. We start by introducing a sequence of Legendre-Gauss-Lobatto polynomials and prove their theoretical properties, such as…
Optimizing proper loss functions is popularly believed to yield predictors with good calibration properties; the intuition being that for such losses, the global optimum is to predict the ground-truth probabilities, which is indeed…
We show how the exact renormalization group for the effective action with a sharp momentum cutoff, may be organised by expanding one-particle irreducible parts in terms of homogeneous functions of momenta of integer degree (Taylor…
