Renormalization of pinned elastic systems: How does it work beyond one loop?

We study the field theories for pinned elastic systems at equilibrium and at depinning. Their beta functions differ to two loops by novel anomalous'' terms. At equilibrium we find a roughness zeta = 0.208 298 04 epsilon + 0.006 858 epsilon (2) (random bond), zeta = epsilon /3 (random field). At depinning we prove two-loop renomalizability and that random field attracts shorter range disorder. We find zeta = epsilon /3(1 + 0.143 31 epsilon), epsilon = 4 - d, in violation of the conjecture zeta = E/3, solving the discrepancy with simulations. For long range elasticity zeta = epsilon /3(1 + 0.397 35 epsilon), epsilon = 2 - d, much closer to the experimental value (approximate to0.5 both for liquid helium contact line depinning and slow crack fronts) than the standard prediction 1/3.
