RG-Whitham dynamics and complex Hamiltonian systems

Inspired by the Seiberg–Witten exact solution, we consider some aspects of the Hamiltonian dynamics with the complexified phase space focusing at the renormalization group (RG)-like Whitham behavior. We show that at the Argyres–Douglas (AD) point the number of degrees of freedom in Hamiltonian syste...
