13th International Conference on the Exact Renormalization Group (ERG2026)
1 - 5 September 2026, University of Sussex, UK.
The biennial ERG conference series brings together scientists from around the world who specialise in applications of the exact or functional renormalisation group to understand physical phenomena from weak to strong coupling.
The event has grown to cover a wide range of research areas in theoretical physics including critical and quantum critical phenomena, gauge theories and strongly correlated fermions, particle physics and model building, nuclear and statistical physics, quantum theories of gravity, non-equilibrium dynamics, and more.
A principal goal of the conference is to foster collaboration, to enable a fruitful exchange of knowledge, ideas, and expertise, and to strengthen the communication amongst different communities and practitioners of quantum field theory. The event provides ample space to highlight recent progress and to discuss areas of wider topical interest, and new directions.
Talks and Poster Session
We invite the submission of abstracts for contributed talks and poster presentations. Submissions prior to 30 April 2026 will receive full consideration.
A dedicated poster session will be held at the start of the conference with prizes for best posters sponsored by Europhysics Letters (a letter journal exploring the frontiers of physics).
This is the first installment of the conference in the UK. Links to previous installments can be found here:
