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 …

Functional renormalization group approach to correlated fermion systems

W Metzner, M Salmhofer, C Honerkamp, V Meden… - Reviews of Modern …, 2012 - APS
Numerous correlated electron systems exhibit a strongly scale-dependent behavior. Upon
lowering the energy scale, collective phenomena, bound states, and new effective degrees …

QCD phase structure at finite temperature and density

W Fu, JM Pawlowski, F Rennecke - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
We discuss the phase structure of QCD for N f= 2 and N f= 2+ 1 dynamical quark flavors at
finite temperature and baryon chemical potential. It emerges dynamically from the …

Phase structure of the Polyakov-quark-meson model

BJ Schaefer, JM Pawlowski, J Wambach - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields …, 2007 - APS
The relation between the deconfinement and chiral phase transition is explored in the
framework of a Polyakov-loop-extended two-flavor quark-meson (PQM) model. In this model …

QCD phase structure from functional methods

F Gao, JM Pawlowski - Physical Review D, 2020 - APS
We discuss the QCD phase structure at finite temperature and chemical potential for 2-flavor
and 2+ 1-flavor QCD. The results are achieved by computing QCD correlation functions …

Asymptotic safety guaranteed

DF Litim, F Sannino - Journal of High Energy Physics, 2014 - Springer
A bstract We study the ultraviolet behaviour of four-dimensional quantum field theories
involving non-abelian gauge fields, fermions and scalars in the Veneziano limit. In a regime …

Chiral symmetry breaking in continuum QCD

M Mitter, JM Pawlowski, N Strodthoff - Physical Review D, 2015 - APS
We present a quantitative analysis of chiral symmetry breaking in two-flavor continuum QCD
in the quenched limit. The theory is set up at perturbative momenta, where asymptotic …

Fermion interactions and universal behavior in strongly interacting theories

J Braun - Journal of Physics G: Nuclear and Particle Physics, 2012 - iopscience.iop.org
The theory of the strong interaction, quantum chromodynamics (QCD), describes the
generation of hadronic masses and the state of hadronic matter during the early stages of …

Conformal window of gauge theories with fermions in higher dimensional representations

DD Dietrich, F Sannino - Physical Review D—Particles, Fields, Gravitation, and …, 2007 - APS
We study the phase diagram as a function of the number of colors and flavors of
asymptotically free nonsupersymmetric theories with matter in higher-dimensional …
