Title: Intro to the renormalization group method
Abstract: In this talk, I will introduce a class of problems that have inspired the use of the renormalization group method. I will discuss spin models and the regimes for which renormalization is relevant, and some aspects of Gaussian fields to introduce the renormalized potential. The talk will cover material from Chapters 1 and 2 of the book.
