abstract
We study the optimisation of exact renormalisation group (ERG) flows. We explain why the convergence of approximate solutions towards the physical theory is optimised by appropriate choices of the regularisation. We consider specific optimised regulators for bosonic and fermionic fields and compare the optimised ERG flows with generic ones. This is done up to second order in the derivative expansion at both vanishing and non-vanishing temperature. We find that optimised flows at finite temperature factorise. This corresponds to the disentangling of thermal and quantum fluctuations. A similar factorisation is found at second order in the derivative expansion. The corresponding optimised flow for a ``proper-time renormalisation group'' is also provided to leading order in the derivative expansion.

FRG analysis of Z_n-anisotropic Gross-Neveu-Yukawa theories shows irrelevant anisotropy for n>3 yielding N=2 supersymmetric criticality and a second length scale whose exponent satisfies ν'/ν = 1 + |y_n|/2.
Auxiliary tensor fields in composite gravity models acquire dynamical kinetic terms via FRG flows, reproducing the transverse-traceless quadratic Einstein-Hilbert structure in the spin-2 sector.
In asymptotically safe gravity, dimension-five couplings of ultralight scalar dark matter to gauge field strengths vanish and are not generated perturbatively.
In asymptotically safe gravity, radiation-filled Bianchi-I cosmologies show quantum corrections that soften anisotropy, while magnetic fields lead to persistent Kasner anisotropy without Lambda but isotropic de Sitter decay with nonzero Lambda.
Including mesonic fluctuations beyond mean field in the quark-meson-diquark model substantially modifies the phase structure, with diquark condensation dominating at strong couplings as revealed by pole masses and the Silver-Blaze property.
FRG study of QCD-like theories finds the CP-violating four-fermion operator becomes relevant in the chirally broken phase when the gauge coupling runs, while finite quark mass strongly suppresses infrared running of the theta parameter.
