Abstract

We consider the fractional Φd3\Phi^3_d-measure on the dd-dimensional torus, with Gaussian free field having inverse covariance (1Δ)α(1-\Delta)^\alpha, and show a phase transition at d=3αd=3\alpha. More precisely, in a regular regime d<3αd<3\alpha, one can construct and normalise this measure, and obtain a measure which is absolutely continuous with respect to the Gaussian free field μ\mu. At d=3αd=3\alpha, the behaviour depends on the size σ|\sigma| of the nonlinearity: for σ1|\sigma|\ll1, the measure exists, but is singular with respect to μ\mu, whereas for σ1|\sigma|\gg1, the measure is not normalisable. This generalises a result of Oh, Okamoto, and Tolomeo (2025) on the Φ33\Phi^3_3-measure.
