Far-from equilibrium dynamics of a dilute Bose gas is studied by means of the two-particle irreducible effective action formalism. We investigate the properties of non-thermal fixed points predicted previously, which are related to non-perturbative strong wave turbulence solutions of the many-body dynamic equations. While they can be formulated in the framework of scaling theory, these fixed points are closely connected with strong non-linear excitations of the gas, including those of (quasi-)topological nature. They are readily accessible to experiment while their relevance reaches far beyond the closer realm of cold gases. A recent analysis of the infrared renormalisation of vertices is of strong interest for the further development of a non-perturbative renormalisation-group description of non-thermal fixed points.
