We present our progress on a study of the $O(3)$ model in two-dimensions using the Tensor Renormalization Group method. We first construct the theory in terms of tensors, and show how to construct $n$-point correlation functions. We then give results for thermodynamic quantities at finite and infinite volume, as well as 2-point correlation function data. We discuss some of the advantages and challenges of tensor renormalization and future directions in which to work.

We calculate thermodynamic potentials and their derivatives for the three-dimensional $O(2)$ model using tensor-network methods to investigate the well-known second-order phase transition. We also consider the model at non-zero chemical potential to study the Silver Blaze phenomenon, which is related to the particle number density at zero temperature. Furthermore, the temperature dependence of the number density is explored using asymmetric lattices. Our results for both zero and non-zero magnetic field, temperature, and chemical potential are consistent with those obtained using other methods.
We study the $SU(2)$ gauge-Higgs model in two Euclidean dimensions using the tensor renormalization group (TRG) approach. We derive a tensor formulation for this model in the unitary gauge and compare the expectation values of different observables between TRG and Monte Carlo simulations finding excellent agreement between the two methods. In practice we find the TRG method to be far superior to Monte Carlo simulation for calculations of the Polyakov loop correlation function which is used to extract the static quark potential.
A lattice approach is developed to measure the sphaleron free energy. Its feasibility is demonstrated through a Monte Carlo study of the two-dimensional O(3) sigma model.
The 2d O(3) model is widely used as a toy model for ferromagnetism and for Quantum Chromodynamics. With the latter it shares --- among other basic aspects --- the property that the continuum functional integral splits into topological sectors. Topology can also be defined in its lattice regularised version, but semi-classical arguments suggest that the topological susceptibility $chi_{rm t}$ does not scale towards a finite continuum limit. Previous numerical studies confirmed that the quantity $chi_{rm t}, xi^{2}$ diverges at large correlation length $xi$. Here we investigate the question whether or not this divergence persists when the configurations are smoothened by the Gradient Flow (GF). The GF destroys part of the topological windings; on fine lattices this strongly reduces $chi_{rm t}$. However, even when the flow time is so long that the GF impact range --- or smoothing radius --- attains $xi/2$, we do still not observe evidence of continuum scaling.
We present our progress in the non-perturbative O(a) improvement and renormalization of tensor currents in three-flavor lattice QCD with Wilson-clover fermions and tree-level Symanzik improved gauge action. The mass-independent O(a) improvement factor of tensor currents is determined via a Ward identity approach, and their renormalization group running is calculated via recursive finite-size scaling techniques, both implemented within the Schrodinger functional framework. We also address the matching factor between bare and renormalization group invariant currents for a range of lattice spacings < 0.1 fm, relevant for phenomenological large-volume lattice QCD applications.
