The lace expansion has been a powerful tool for investigating mean-field behavior for various stochastic-geometrical models, such as self-avoiding walk and percolation, above their respective upper-critical dimension. In this paper, we…
The lace expansion for the Ising two-point function was successfully derived in Sakai (Commun. Math. Phys., 272 (2007): 283--344). It is an identity that involves an alternating series of the lace-expansion coefficients. In the same paper,…
We present a new proof of $|x|^{-(d-2)}$ decay of critical two-point functions for spread-out statistical mechanical models on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ above the upper critical dimension, based on the lace expansion and assuming appropriate…
We prove that any scaling limit of a critical reflection positive Ising or $\varphi^4$ model of effective dimension $d_{\text{eff}}$ at least four is Gaussian. This extends the recent breakthrough work of Aizenman and Duminil-Copin -- which…
We consider long-range percolation, Ising model, and self-avoiding walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, with couplings decaying like $|x|^{-(d+\alpha)}$ where $0 < \alpha \le 2$, above the upper critical dimensions. In the spread-out setting where the…
We prove that the scaling limits of spin fluctuations in four-dimensional Ising-type models with nearest-neighbor ferromagnetic interaction at or near the critical point are Gaussian. A similar statement is proven for the $\lambda \phi^4$…
We consider the $n$-component $|\varphi|^4$ spin model on $\mathbb{Z}^4$, for all $n \geq 1$, with small coupling constant. We prove that the susceptibility has a logarithmic correction to mean field scaling, with exponent $\frac{n+2}{n+8}$…
This paper extends the inductive approach to the lace expansion of van der Hofstad and Slade in order to prove Gaussian asymptotic behaviour for models with critical dimension other than 4. The results are applied by Holmes to study…
We extend and apply a rigorous renormalisation group method to study critical correlation functions, on the 4-dimensional lattice $\mathbb{Z}^4$, for the weakly coupled $n$-component $|\varphi|^4$ spin model for all $n \geq 1$, and for the…
We prove $|x|^{-2}$ decay of the critical two-point function for the continuous-time weakly self-avoiding walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, in the upper critical dimension $d=4$. This is a statement that the critical exponent $\eta$ exists and is…
We extend the inductive approach to the lace expansion, previously developed to study models with critical dimension 4, to be applicable more generally. In particular, the result of this note has recently been used to prove Gaussian…
We use the lace expansion to give a simple proof that the critical two-point function for weakly self-avoiding walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$ has decay $|x|^{-(d-2)}$ in dimensions $d>4$. The proof uses elementary Fourier analysis and the…
We use the lace expansion to study the long-distance decay of the two-point function of weakly self-avoiding walk on the integer lattice $\mathbb{Z}^d$ in dimensions $d>4$, in the vicinity of the critical point, and prove an upper bound…
We consider $\phi^4$ theory with $\phi(x)\in\mathbb{R}$ in two Euclidean dimensions. We determine for a variety of self-couplings $\hat{\lambda}$ the (negative) critical bare mass $\hat{\mu}_{0\mathrm{c}}^2(\hat{\lambda})$ where the…
We study the scalar one-component two-dimensional (2D) $\phi^4$ model by computer simulations, with local Metropolis moves. The equilibrium exponents of this model are well-established, e.g. for the 2D $\phi^4$ model $\gamma= 1.75$ and…
We study the $O(N)$-invariant $\phi^4$ model on the simple cubic lattice by using Monte Carlo simulations. By using a finite size scaling analysis, we obtain accurate estimates for the critical exponents $\nu$ and $\eta$ for $N=4$, $5$,…
We show Green's function asymptotic upper bound for the two-point function of weakly self-avoiding walk in dimension bigger than 4, revisiting a classic problem. Our proof relies on Banach algebras to analyse the lace-expansion fixed point…
We analyze universal and nonuniversal finite-size effects of lattice systems in a $L^d$ geometry above the upper critical dimension d = 4 within the O(n) symmetric $\phi^4$ lattice theory. On the basis of exact results for $n \to\infty$ and…
We study cutoff and lattice effects in the O(n) symmetric $\phi^4$ theory for a $d$-dimensional cubic geometry of size $L$ with periodic boundary conditions. In the large-N limit above $T_c$, we show that $\phi^4$ field theory at finite…
The establishment of the Wilson-Fisher fixed point (WFP) for $O(n)$ spin models in $d=4-\epsilon$ dimensions stands as a cornerstone of the renormalization group (RG) theory for critical phenomena. However, when long-range (LR)…
