The energy gap between the first excited state and the ground state is calculated for the quantized anharmonic oscillator in the framework of the functional renormalization group method. The compactly supported smooth regulator is used which includes various types of regulators as limiting cases. It was found that the value of the energy gap depends on the regulator parameters. We argue that the optimization based on the disappearance of the false, broken symmetric phase of the model leads to the Litim's regulator. The least sensitivity on the regulator parameters leads, however, to an IR regulator being somewhat different of the Litim's one, but it can be described as a perturbatively improved, or generalized Litim's regulator and provides analytic evolution equations, too.

Symmetric Theory

The Local Potential Approximation (LPA) to the Wetterich-equation is formulated explicitly in terms of operators, which are invariant under the U (n)× U (n) symmetry group. Complete formulas are presented for the two-flavor ( U (2)× U (2)) case. The same approach leads to a unique natural truncation of the functional driving the renormalization flow of the potential of the three-flavor case ( U (3)× U (3)). The procedure applied to the SU (3)× SU (3) symmetric theory, results in an equation, which potentially allows an RG-investigation of the effect of the 't Hooft term representing the U A(1) anomaly, disentangled from the other operators.

Counting Statistics

We develop a scheme to investigate the flux of nonequilibrium transport based on the full counting statistics and nonequilibrium functional renormalization group method. As an illustrative example, we study the charge transfer in the system of an interacting quantum dot connected to two noninteracting reservoirs via tunneling. Within the lowest approximation in functional renormalization group, we obtain the cumulant generating function analytically.
