The presence of nearby conformal field theories (CFTs) hidden in the complex plane of the tuning parameter was recently proposed as an elegant explanation for the ubiquity of "weakly first-order" transitions in condensed matter 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 study scalar conformal field theories whose large $N$ spectrum is fixed by the operator dimensions of either Ising model or Lee-Yang edge singularity. Using numerical bootstrap to study CFTs with $S_N\otimes Z_2$ symmetry, we find a…

We consider an O(N) version of a massive, interacting, chiral supersymmetry model solved exactly in the large N limit. We demonstrate that the system approaches a stable attractor at high energy densities, corresponding to a…

In this paper, we analyze the constraints imposed by unitarity and crossing symmetry on conformal theories in large dimensions. In particular, we show that in a unitary conformal theory in large dimension $D$, the four-point function of…

We show that, in the most general $N$-component theory with symmetry O(n_1)+O(n_2), N=n_1+n_2\geq 3, the O(N)-symmetric fixed point has (at least) three unstable directions: the temperature, the quadratic anisotropy, and the spin-4 quartic…

For an anisotropic euclidean $\phi^4$-theory with two interactions $[u (\sum_{i=1^M {\phi}_i^2)^2+v \sum_{i=1}^M \phi_i^4]$ the $\beta$-functions are calculated from five-loop perturbation expansions in $d=4-\varepsilon$ dimensions, using…

The Wilson-Fisher criticality provides a paradigm for a large class of phase transitions in nature (e.g., helium, ferromagnets). In the three dimension, Wilson-Fisher critical points are not exactly solvable due to the strongly-correlated…
