We consider a functional relation between a given Wilsonian renormalization group (RG) flow, which has to be related to a specific coarse-graining procedure, and an infinite family of (UV cutoff) scale-dependent field redefinitions. Within this framework, one can define a family of Wilsonian proper-time (PT) exact RG equations associated to an arbitrary regulator function. New applications of these RG flow schemes to the Ising Universality class in three dimensions in the derivative expansion are shortly illustrated.We consider a functional relation between a given Wilsonian renormalization group (RG) flow, which has to be related to a specific coarse-graining procedure, and an infinite family of (UV cutoff) scale-dependent field redefinitions.

Wilsonian renormalization as a quantum channel and the separability of fixed points

Matheus H. Martins Costa, Jeroen van den Brink, Flavio S. Nogueira +1 more

We show that the Wilsonian formulation of the renormalization group (RG) defines a quantum channel acting on the momentum-space density matrices of a quantum field theory. This information theoretical property of the RG allows us to derive a remarkable consequence for the vacuum of theories at a fixed point: they have no entanglement between momentum scales. Our result can be understood as deriving from the scale symmetry of such theories and leads to constraints on the form of the ground state and on expectation values of momentum-space operators.We show that the Wilsonian formulation of the renormalization group (RG) defines a quantum channel acting on the momentum-space density matrices of a quantum field theory.

Pions are neither perturbative nor nonperturbative: Wilsonian RG analysis of the pionful NEFT

Koji Harada, Hirofumi Kubo, Yuki Yamamoto

Pionful nuclear effective field theory (NEFT) in the two-nucleon sector is examined from the Wilsonian renormalization group point of view. The pion exchange is cut off at the floating cutoff scale, $\Lambda$ , with the short-distance part being represented as contact interactions in accordance with the general principle of renormalization. We derive the nonperturbative renormalization group equations in the leading order of the nonrelativistic approximation in the operator space including up to $\mathcal{O}(p^2)$ and find the nontrivial fixed points in the $^1S_0$ and $^3S_1$ -- $^3D_1$ channels which are identified with those in the pionless NEFT. The scaling dimensions, which determine the power counting, of the contact interactions at the nontrivial fixed points are also identified with those in the pionless NEFT. We emphasize the importance of the separation of the pion exchange into the short-distance and the long-distance parts, since a part of the former is nonperturbative while the latter is perturbative.Pionful nuclear effective field theory (NEFT) in the two-nucleon sector is examined from the Wilsonian renormalization group point of view.
