Abstract

We consider renormalization of four-fermion operators in the critical QED and SU(Nc)SU(N_c) version of Gross--Neveu--Yukawa model in non-integer dimensions. Since the number of mixing operators is infinite, the diagonalization of an anomalous dimension matrix becomes a nontrivial problem. At leading order, construction of eigen-operators is equivalent to solving certain three-term recurrence relations. We find analytic solutions of these recurrence relations that allows to determine the spectrum of anomalous dimensions and study their properties.
