Global solutions of functional fixed point equations via pseudo-spectral methods

High Energy Physics - Theory 2015-09-03 v2

Abstract

We apply pseudo-spectral methods to construct global solutions of functional renormalisation group equations in field space to high accuracy. For this, we introduce a basis to resolve both finite as well as asymptotic regions of effective potentials. Our approach is benchmarked using the critical behaviour of the scalar O(1)O(1) model, providing results for the global fixed point potential as well as leading critical exponents and their respective global eigenfunctions. We provide new results for (1) multi-critical O(1)O(1) models in fractional dimensions, (2) the three-dimensional Gross-Neveu model at both small and large NN, and (3) the scalar-tensor model, also in three dimensions.
