Exact Renormalization Group

We show that it is in principle possible to construct dualities between commutative and non-commutative theories in a systematic way. This construction exploits a generalization of the exact renormalization group equation (ERG). We apply this to the simple case of the Landau problem and then generalize it to the free and interacting non-canonical scalar field theory. This constructive approach offers the advantage of tracking the implementation of the Lorentz symmetry in the non-commutative dual theory. In principle, it allows for the construction of completely consistent non-commutative and non-local theories where the Lorentz symmetry and unitarity are still respected, but may be implemented in a highly non-trivial and non-local manner.

Infinite Set

The path integral formulation of Quantum Field Theory implies an infinite set of local, Schwinger-Dyson-like relation. Exact renormalization group equations can be cast as a particular instance of these relations. Furthermore, exact scheme independence is turned into a vector field transformation of the kernel of the exact renormalization group equation under field redefinitions.

And Diffusion

Abstract We study relationship between renormalization group and diffusion equation. We consider the exact renormalization group equation for a scalar field that includes an arbitrary cutoff function and an arbitrary quadratic seed action. As a generalization of the result obtained by Sonoda and Suzuki, we find that the correlation functions of diffused fields with respect to the bare action agree with those of bare fields with respect to the effective action, where the diffused field obeys a generalized diffusion equation determined by the cutoff function and the seed action and agrees with the bare field at the initial time.

Exact Renormalization Group

A simple form of the exact renormalization group method is proposed for the study of supersymmetric gauge field theory. The method relies on the existence of ultraviolet-finite four dimensional gauge theories with extended supersymmetry. The resulting exact renormalization group equation crucially depends on the Konishi anomaly of N=1 super Yang–Mills. We illustrate our method by dealing with the NSVZ exact relation for the beta functions, the N=2 super Yang–Mills effective potential and the N=1 super Yang–Mills gluon superpotential (the so-called Veneziano–Yankielowicz potential).

We study the large-N renormalization group of scalar field theory on a fuzzy sphere. We carry out perturbative analysis and formulate the renormalization group equation. We then search for fixed points and investigate their properties.

Unified Description

An exact renormalization group equation describes the dependence of the free energy on an infrared cutoff for the quantum or thermal fluctuations. It interpolates between the microphysical laws and the complex macroscopic phenomena. We present a simple unified description of critical phenomena for O(N)-symmetric scalar models in two, three or four dimensions, including essential scaling for the Kosterlitz-Thouless transition.

Exact Renormalization Group

The loop variable approach is a proposal for a gauge-invariant generalization of the sigma-model renormalization group method of obtaining equations of motion in string theory. The basic guiding principle is space–time gauge invariance rather than world sheet properties. In essence it is a version of Wilson's exact renormalization group equation for the world sheet theory. It involves all the massive modes and is defined with a finite world sheet cutoff, which allows one to go off the mass-shell. On shell the tree amplitudes of string theory are reproduced. The equations are gauge-invariant off shell also. This paper is a self-contained discussion of the loop variable approach as well as its connection with the Wilsonian RG.

Solutions of the Polchinski exact renormalization group equation in the scalar O(N) theory are studied. Families of regular solutions are found and their relation with fixed points of the theory is established. Special attention is devoted to the limit N = ∞, where many properties can be analyzed analytically.
