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 …

Nonperturbative properties of Yang–Mills theories

MQ Huber - Physics Reports, 2020 - Elsevier
Yang–Mills theories are an important building block of the standard model and in particular
of quantum chromodynamics. Its correlation functions describe the behavior of its …

Lecture notes: functional renormalisation group and asymptotically safe quantum gravity

M Reichert - Proceedings of Science, 2020 - portal.findresearcher.sdu.dk
These lecture notes give an introduction to the functional renormalisation group and
asymptotically safe quantum gravity. We cover the basics of generating functionals in …

Brout–Englert–Higgs physics: From foundations to phenomenology

A Maas - Progress in Particle and Nuclear Physics, 2019 - Elsevier
Abstract Brout–Englert–Higgs physics is one of the most central and successful parts of the
standard model. It is also part of a multitude of beyond-the-standard-model scenarios. The …

Quantum scale symmetry

C Wetterich - arxiv preprint arxiv:1901.04741, 2019 - arxiv.org
Quantum scale symmetry is the realization of scale invariance in a quantum field theory. No
parameters with dimension of length or mass are present in the quantum effective action …

The Asymptotically Safe Standard Model: From quantum gravity to dynamical chiral symmetry breaking

Á Pastor-Gutiérrez, JM Pawlowski, M Reichert - SciPost Physics, 2023 - scipost.org
We present a comprehensive non-perturbative study of the phase structure of the
asymptotically safe Standard Model. The physics scales included range from the …

Quark masses and mixings in minimally parameterized UV completions of the Standard Model

R Alkofer, A Eichhorn, A Held, CM Nieto, R Percacci… - Annals of Physics, 2020 - Elsevier
We explore a simple parameterization of new physics that results in an ultraviolet complete
gauge-quark sector of the Standard Model. Specifically, we add an antiscreening …

On avoiding Ostrogradski instabilities within asymptotic safety

D Becker, C Ripken, F Saueressig - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2017 - Springer
A bstract We study the renormalization group flow of gravity coupled to scalar matter using
functional renormalization group techniques. The novel feature is the inclusion of higher …

Probing baryogenesis through the Higgs boson self-coupling

M Reichert, A Eichhorn, H Gies, JM Pawlowski, T Plehn… - Physical Review D, 2018 - APS
The link between a modified Higgs self-coupling and the strong first-order phase transition
necessary for baryogenesis is well explored for polynomial extensions of the Higgs …

Shocks and quark-meson scatterings at large density

E Grossi, FJ Ihssen, JM Pawlowski, N Wink - Physical Review D, 2021 - APS
We discuss the phase structure of the two-flavor quark-meson model including quantum,
thermal, density and critical fluctuations with the functional renormalization group. This study …
