Starting from a well defined local Lagrangian, we analyze the renormalization group equations in terms of the two different arbitrary scales associated with the regularization procedure and with the physical renormalization of the bare…
The critical exponent $\eta $ is not well accounted for in the Polchinski exact formulation of the renormalization group (RG). With a particular emphasis laid on the introduction of the critical exponent $\eta $, I re-establish (after…
It has been previously shown that calculation of renormalization group (RG) functions of the scalar \phi^4 theory reduces to the analysis of thermodynamic properties of the Ising model. Using high-temperature expansions for the latter, RG…
We investigate a $Z_2$-symmetric scalar field theory in two dimensions using the Polchinski exact renormalization group equation expanded to second order in the derivative expansion. We find preliminary evidence that the Polchinski equation…
We develop a renormalization group (RG) procedure that includes important system-specific features. The key ingredient is to systematize the coarse graining procedure that generates the RG flow. The coarse graining technology comes from…
We study exact renormalization group (RG) in O(4) gauged supergravity using the effective average action formalism. The nonperturbative RG equations for cosmological and newtonian coupling constants are found. It is shown the existence of…
With a view to study the convergence properties of the derivative expansion of the exact renormalization group (RG) equation, I explicitly study the leading and next-to-leading orders of this expansion applied to the Wilson-Polchinski…
The exact renormalization group (RG) method initiated by Wilson and further developed by Polchinski is used to study the shear flow model proposed by Avellaneda and Majda as a simplified model for the diffusive transport of a passive scalar…
The Renormalization Group (RG) is a set of methods that have been instrumental in tackling problems involving an infinite number of degrees of freedom. What all these methods have in common -- which is what explains their success -- is that…
We establish that Polchinski's equation for exact renormalization group flow is equivalent to the optimal transport gradient flow of a field-theoretic relative entropy. This provides a compelling information-theoretic formulation of the…
I give an overview over some work on rigorous renormalization theory based on the differential flow equations of the Wilson-Wegner renormalization group. I first consider massive Euclidean $\phi_4^4$-theory. The renormalization proofs are…
We propose a renormalization group (RG) approach to compare and collapse eigenvalue densities of random matrix models of complex systems across different system sizes. The approach is to fix a natural spectral scale by letting the model…
It is shown that exact renormalization group (RG) equations (including rescaling and field-renormalization) for respectively the scale-dependent full action $S[\phi,t]$ and the scale-dependent full effective action $\Gamma[\Phi,t]$ --in…
We present a renormalization group (RG) approach to explain universal features of extreme statistics, applied here to independent, identically distributed variables. The outlines of the theory have been described in a previous Letter, the…
We derive the Wilson-Polchinski RG equation in the planar limit. We explain that the equation necessarily involves also non-planar amplitudes with sphere topology, which represent multi-trace contributions to the effective action. The…
Recently, Poole & Thomsen have presented the Renormalization Group Equations (RGEs) in the $\overline{\mathrm{MS}}$ scheme for dimensionless parameters of a general renormalizable gauge theory in a new formalism based on the Local…
These notes provide a concise introduction to important applications of the renormalization group (RG) in statistical physics. After reviewing the scaling approach and Ginzburg-Landau theory for critical phenomena, Wilson's momentum shell…
Exact RG equations are discussed with emphasis on the role of the anomalous dimension $\eta$. For the Polchinski equation this may be introduced as a free parameter reflecting the freedom of such equations up to contributions which vanish…
We review the use of the exact renormalization group for realization of symmetry in renormalizable field theories. The review consists of three parts. In part I (sects. 2,3,4), we start with the perturbative construction of a renormalizable…
We summarize our recent results on the large N renormalization group (RG) approach to matrix models for discretized two-dimensional quantum gravity. We derive exact RG equations by solving the reparametrization identities, which reduce…
