The renormalization group is a powerful mathematical and conceptual framework used in physics to analyze how physical systems behave at different scales. It focuses on the idea that the properties of a system can change when viewed at different length scales, allowing for the classification of systems into universality classes based on shared critical behavior. This framework is essential for understanding phase transitions and quantum phase transitions, highlighting how microscopic interactions lead to macroscopic phenomena.
congrats on reading the definition of Renormalization group. now let's actually learn it.
