Functional Renormalization Group at Large N for Disordered Elastic Systems, and Relation to Replica Symmetry Breaking
Pierre Le Doussal, Kay Joerg Wiese
We study the replica field theory which describes the pinning of elastic manifolds of arbitrary internal dimension d in a random potential, with the aim of bridging the gap between…
The Functional Renormalization Group Treatment of Disordered Systems: a Review
Kay Joerg Wiese
We review current progress in the functional renormalization group treatment of disordered systems. After an elementary introduction into the phenomenology, we show why in the cont…
The 4-loop beta-function in the 2D Non-Abelian Thirring model, and comparison with its conjectured "exact" form
Andreas W. W. Ludwig, Kay Joerg Wiese
Recently, B. Gerganov, A. LeClair and M. Moriconi [Phys. Rev. Lett. 86 (2001) 4753] have proposed an "exact" (all orders) beta-function for 2-dimensional conformal field theories w…
Interacting Crumpled Manifolds: Exact Results to all Orders of Perturbation Theory
Henryk A. Pinnow, Kay Joerg Wiese
In this letter, we report progress on the field theory of polymerized tethered membranes. For the toy-model of a manifold repelled by a single point, we are able to sum the perturb…
Disordered Systems and the Functional Renormalization Group: A Pedagogical Introduction
Kay Joerg Wiese
In this article, we review basic facts about disordered systems, especially the existence of many metastable states and and the resulting failure of dimensional reduction. Besides…
2-loop Functional Renormalization Group Theory of the Depinning Transition
Pierre Le Doussal, Kay Joerg Wiese, Pascal Chauve
We construct the field theory which describes the universal properties of the quasi-static isotropic depinning transition for interfaces and elastic periodic systems at zero temper…
