Applying the Exact Renormalization Group to scalar field theory in Euclidean space of general (not necessarily integer) dimension, it is proven that the only fixed-point with vanishing anomalous dimension is the Gaussian one. The proof…
In this work we provide a link between a nearly vanishing cosmological constant and chiral symmetry. This is accomplished with a modification of General Relativity coupled to a topological field theory, namely BF theory by introducing…
Using cohomological methods we discuss several issues related to chiral anomalies in noncommutative U(N) YM theories in any even dimension. We show that for each dimension there is only one solution of the WZ consistency condition and that…
It is shown that conformal matter with $c_{\ssc L}\not=c_{\ssc R}$ can be consistently coupled to two-dimensional `frame' gravity. The theory is quantized, following David, and Distler and Kawai, using the derivation of their {\it ansatz}…
This is a synopsis and extension of Phys.~Rev.~{\em D49} 5408 (1994). The Pseudodual Chiral Model illustrates 2-dimensional field theories which possess an infinite number of conservation laws but also allow particle production, at variance…
We describe a functional renormalization group-based method to search for `$C$-like' functions with properties similar to that in 2D conformal field theory. It exploits the mode counting properties of the effective average action and is…
We study ordinary, zero-form symmetry $G$ and its anomalies in a system with a one-form symmetry $\Gamma$. In a theory with one-form symmetry, the action of $G$ on charged line operators is not completely determined, and additional data, a…
We develop a scaling theory and a renormalization technique in the context of the modern theory of polarization. The central idea is to use the characteristic function (also known as the polarization amplitude) in place of the free energy…
Irreversibility of RG flows in two dimensions is shown using conserved vector currents. Out of a conserved vector current, a quantity decreasing along the RG flow is built up such that it is stationary at fixed points where it coincides…
Recently, the existence of a candidate a-function for renormalisable theories in three dimensions was demonstrated for a general theory at leading order and for a scalar-fermion theory at next-to-leading order. Here we extend this work by…
In frames of dS/CFT correspondence suggested by Strominger we calculate holographic conformal anomaly for dual euclidean CFT. The holographic renormalization group method is used for this purpose. It is explicitly demonstrated that…
We improve well-known results concerning normal families and shared values of meromorphic functions in the plane. In particular, we obtain two corollaries concerning meromorphic functions $f \colon {\mathbb C} \to {\widehat{\mathbb C}}$: i)…
We study four-dimensional N=1, 2 superconformal theory in class S obtained by compactifying the 6d N=(2, 0) theory on a Riemann surface C with outer-automorphism twist lines. From the pair-of-pants decompositions C we find various dual…
We present a regularization scheme which respects the supersymmetry and the maximal background gauge covariance in supersymmetric chiral gauge theories. When the anomaly cancellation condition is satisfied, the effective action in the…
Chiral gauge theories in two dimensions with (0,2) supersymmetry admit a much broader, and more interesting, class of vacuum solutions than their better studied (2,2) counterparts. In this thesis, we will explore some of the possibilities…
By adding a linear term to a renormalization-group equation in a system exhibiting infinite-order phase transitions, asymptotic behavior of running coupling constants is derived in an algebraic manner. A benefit of this method is presented…
't Hooft anomalies are known to induce specific contributions to the effective action at finite temperature. We present a general method to directly calculate such contributions from the anomaly polynomial of a given theory, including a…
We show that symmetries are preserved exactly along the (Wilsonian) renormalization group flow, though the IR cutoff deforms concrete forms of the transformations. For a gauge theory the cutoff dependent Ward-Takahashi identity is written…
The order of the chiral phase transition in two-color and two-flavor QC$_2$D is investigated using the functional renormalization group (FRG) technique in an effective model setting. We calculate the $\beta$ function of all couplings in the…
The mean flux theorems are proved for solutions of the Helmholtz equation and its modified version. Also, their converses are considered along with some other properties which generalise those that guarantee harmonicity.
