Heavy Handed Quest for Fixed Points in Multiple Coupling Scalar Theories in the $\varepsilon$ Expansion
Abstract
The tensorial equations for non trivial fully interacting fixed points at lowest order in the expansion in and dimensions are analysed for -component fields and corresponding multi-index couplings which are symmetric tensors with four or six indices. Both analytic and numerical methods are used. For in the four-index case large numbers of irrational fixed points are found numerically where is close to the bound found by Rychkov and Stergiou in arXiv:1810.10541. No solutions, other than those already known, are found which saturate the bound. These examples in general do not have unique quadratic invariants in the fields. For the stability matrix in the full space of couplings always has negative eigenvalues. In the six index case the numerical search generates a very large number of solutions for .
