The nonperturbative functional renormalization group and its applications

N Dupuis, L Canet, A Eichhorn, W Metzner… - Physics Reports, 2021 - Elsevier
The renormalization group plays an essential role in many areas of physics, both
conceptually and as a practical tool to determine the long-distance low-energy properties of …

Fundamentals of the exact renormalization group

OJ Rosten - Physics Reports, 2012 - Elsevier
Various aspects of the Exact Renormalization Group (ERG) are explored, starting with a
review of the concepts underpinning the framework and the circumstances under which it is …

Optimized renormalization group flows

DF Litim - Physical Review D, 2001 - APS
We study the optimization of exact renormalization group (ERG) flows. We explain why the
convergence of approximate solutions towards the physical theory is optimized by …

An introduction to the nonperturbative renormalization group

B Delamotte - Renormalization group and effective field theory …, 2012 - Springer
We give in these notes a short presentation of both the main ideas underlying Wilson's
renormalization group (RG) and their concrete implementation under the form of what is now …

Exact renormalization group equations: an introductory review

C Bagnuls, C Bervillier - Physics Reports, 2001 - Elsevier
We critically review the use of the exact renormalization group equations (ERGE) in the
framework of the scalar theory. We lay emphasis on the existence of different versions of the …

Convergence of nonperturbative approximations to the renormalization group

I Balog, H Chaté, B Delamotte, M Marohnić… - Physical review …, 2019 - APS
We provide analytical arguments showing that the “nonperturbative” approximation scheme
to Wilson's renormalization group known as the derivative expansion has a finite radius of …

Lectures on the functional renormalization group method

J Polonyi - Central European Journal of Physics, 2003 - Springer
These introductory notes are about functional renormalization group equations and some of
their applications. It is emphasised that the applicability of this method extends well beyond …

Triviality pursuit: can elementary scalar particles exist?

DJE Callaway - Physics Reports, 1988 - Elsevier
Great effort is presently being expended in the search for elementary scalar “Higgs”
particles. These particles have yet to be observed. The primary justification for this search is …

Theory and experiments for disordered elastic manifolds, depinning, avalanches, and sandpiles

KJ Wiese - Reports on Progress in Physics, 2022 - iopscience.iop.org
Abstract Domain walls in magnets, vortex lattices in superconductors, contact lines at
depinning, and many other systems can be modeled as an elastic system subject to …

Critical exponents from optimised renormalisation group flows

DF Litim - Nuclear Physics B, 2002 - Elsevier
Within the exact renormalisation group, the scaling solutions for O (N) symmetric scalar field
theories are studied to leading order in the derivative expansion. The Gaussian fixed point is …
