It is well known that the renormalization group transformation $\mathcal{R}$ has a unique fixed point $f_{cr}$ in the space of critical $C^{3}$-circle homeomorphisms with one cubic critical point $x_{cr}$ and the golden mean rotation number $\overline{\rho}:=\frac{\sqrt{5}-1}{2}.$ Denote by $Cr(\overline{\rho})$ the set of all critical circle maps $C^{1}$-conjugated to $f_{cr}.$ Let $f\in Cr(\overline{\rho})$ and let $\mu:=\mu_{f}$ be the unique probability invariant measure of $f.$ Fix $\theta \in(0,1).$ For each $n\geq1$ define $c_{n}:=c_{n}(\theta)$ such that $\mu([x_{cr},c_{n}])=\theta\cdot\mu([x_{cr},f^{q_{n}}(x_{cr})]),$ where $q_{n}$ is the first return time of the linear rotation $f_{\overline{\rho}}.$ We study convergence in law of rescaled point process of time hitting. We show that the limit distribution is singular w.r.t. the Lebesgue measure.

We start systematic investigation for the possibility to have supersymmetry (SUSY) as an asymptotic state of the gauge theory in the high energy (UV) limit, due to the renormalization group running of coupling constants of the theory. The answer on whether this situation takes place or not, can be resolved by dealing with the running of the ratios between Yukawa and scalar couplings to the gauge coupling. The behavior of these ratios does not depend too much on whether gauge coupling is asymptotically free (AF) or not. It can be shown that the UV stable fixed point for the Yukawa coupling is not supersymmetric. Taking this into account, one can break down SUSY only in the scalar coupling sector. We consider two simplest examples of such breaking, namely N = 1 supersymmetric QED and QCD. In one of the cases one can construct an example of SUSY being restored in the UV regime.

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 various critical exponents are calculated.

Viscosity approximation methods for nonexpansive mappings in CAT(0) spaces are studied. Consider a nonexpansive self-mappingTof a closed convex subsetCof a CAT(0) spaceX. Suppose that the set Fix(T)of fixed points ofTis nonempty. For a contractionfonCandt∈(0,1), letxt∈Cbe the unique fixed point of the contractionx↦tf(x)⊕(1-t)Tx. We will show that ifXis a CAT(0) space satisfying some property, then{xt}converge strongly to a fixed point ofTwhich solves some variational inequality. Consider also the iteration process{xn}, wherex0∈Cis arbitrary andxn+1=αnf(xn)⊕(1-αn)Txnforn≥1, where{αn}⊂(0,1). It is shown that under certain appropriate conditions onαn,{xn}converge strongly to a fixed point ofTwhich solves some variational inequality.

We study the nonperturbative renormalization group flow of higher-derivative gravity employing functional renormalization group techniques. The nonperturbative contributions to the β-functions shift the known perturbative ultraviolet fixed point into a nontrivial fixed point with three UV-attractive and one UV-repulsive eigendirections, consistent with the asymptotic safety conjecture of gravity. The implication of this transition on the unitarity problem, typically haunting higher-derivative gravity theories, is discussed.

A basic theorem of iteration theory (Henrici [6]) states thatfanalytic on the interior of the closed unit diskDand continuous onDwithInt(D)f(D)carries any pointz ϵ Dto the unique fixed pointα ϵ Doff. That is to say,fn(z)→αasn→∞. In [3] and [5] the author generalized this result in the following way: LetFn(z):=f1∘…∘fn(z). Thenfn→funiformly onDimpliesFn(z)λ, a constant, for allz ϵ D. This kind of compositional structure is a generalization of a limit periodic continued fraction. This paper focuses on the convergence behavior of more general inner compositional structuresf1∘…∘fn(z)where thefj's are analytic onInt(D)and continuous onDwithInt(D)fj(D), but essentially random. Applications include analytic functions defined by this process.
