Functional renormalization flow and dynamical chiral symmetry breaking of QCD

preprint2013arXivOpen access

Abstract

The dependence of function renormalization group equation on regulators is investigated. A parameter is introduced to control the suppression of regulators. Functional renormalization group equations will become regulator-independent if this newly introduced parameter is sent to infinity in the end of calculation. One-loop renormalization flow equations of QCD are derived. The novelty is that both the coupling running equation and the mass running equation are mass-dependent. Different flow patterns are explored. A mechanism for non-occurrence of dynamical chiral symmetry breaking is arrived at. The existence of a conformal window is also discussed in the language of renormalization flow.
