We consider the Landau-Ginzburg-Wilson Hamiltonian with O(n)x O(m) symmetry and compute the critical exponents at all fixed points to O(n^{-2}) and to O(\epsilon^3) in a \epsilon=4-d expansion. We also consider the corresponding non-linear…

We consider $CP^{N-1}$ models in $d+1$ dimensions around Lifshitz fixed points with dynamical critical exponent $z$, in the large-N expansion. It is shown that these models are asymptotically free and dynamically generate a mass for the…
We calculate the critical exponent $\nu$ in the 1/N expansion of the two-particle-irreducible (2PI) effective action for the O(N) symmetric $\phi ^4$ model in three spatial dimensions. The exponent $\nu$ controls the behavior of a two-point…
We consider the thermal behavior of a large number of matrix degrees of freedom in the planar limit. We work in $0+1$ dimensions, with $D$ matrices, and use $1/D$ as an expansion parameter. This can be thought of as a non-commutative…
Generic higher character Lifshitz critical behaviors are described using field theory and $\epsilon_{L}$-expansion renormalization group methods. These critical behaviors describe systems with arbitrary competing interactions. We derive the…

We consider the critical behaviour of long-range $O(n)$ models ($n \ge 0$) on ${\mathbb Z}^d$, with interaction that decays with distance $r$ as $r^{-(d+\alpha)}$, for $\alpha \in (0,2)$. For $n \ge 1$, we study the $n$-component…
