We study how universality classes of O(N)-symmetric models depend continuously on the dimension d and the number of field components N. We observe, from a renormalization group perspective, how the implications of the…
The critical exponents corresponding to chirality are computed at O(1/N^2) in d-dimensions at the stable chiral fixed point of a scalar field theory with an O(N) x O(m) symmetry. Pade-Borel estimates for the exponents are given in three…
The critical behavior of the random-field Ising model has been a puzzle for a long time. Different theoretical methods predict that the critical exponents of the random-field ferromagnet in D dimensions are the same as in the pure…
The critcal exponent $\omega$ is evaluated at $O(1/N)$ in $d$-dimensions in the Gross-Neveu model using the large $N$ critical point formalism. It is shown to be in agreement with the recently determined three loop $\beta$-functions of the…
We apply the derivative expansion of the effective action in the exact renormalization group equation up to fourth order to the $Z_2$ and $O(N)$ symmetric scalar models in $d=3$ Euclidean dimensions. We compute the critical exponents $\nu$,…
We compute the critical exponents $\nu$, $\eta$ and $\omega$ of $O(N)$ models for various values of $N$ by implementing the derivative expansion of the nonperturbative renormalization group up to next-to-next-to-leading order [usually…
We compute critical properties of a general class of quantum spin chains which are quadratic in the Fermi operators and can be solved exactly under certain symmetry constraints related to the classical compact groups $U(N)$, $O(N)$ and…
The relation between critical exponents, characterizing a continuous phase transition, and the fractal structure of physical lines, proliferating at the critical point, is established by considering the two-dimensional O($N$) spin model for…
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…
Critical exponents for the 3D O(n)-symmetric model with n > 3 are estimated on the base of six-loop renormalization-group (RG) expansions. A simple Pade-Borel technique is used for the resummation of the RG series and the Pade approximants…
We study the critical properties of three-dimensional O(N) models, for N=2,3,4. Parameterizing the leading corrections-to-scaling for the $\eta$ exponent, we obtain a reliable infinite volume extrapolation, incompatible with previous Monte…
We develop a method for extracting accurate critical exponents from perturbation expansions of the O(n)-symmetric nonlinear sigma-model in D=2+ epsilon dimensions. This is possible by considering the epsilon-expansions in this model as…
Recent work on exact renormalization group flow equations has pointed out the possibility to study critical phenomena in continuous dimension D of space. In an investigation of the O(N) model the dimension N of the fields may be seen as a…
We compute the large $N$ critical exponents $\eta$, $\eta_\phi$ and $1/\nu$ in $d$-dimensions in the chiral Heisenberg Gross-Neveu model to several orders in powers of $1/N$. For instance, the large $N$ conformal bootstrap method is used to…
We explore O(N) models in dimensions $4<d<6$. Specifically, we investigate models of an O(N) vector field coupled to an additional scalar field via a cubic interaction. Recent results in $d=6-\epsilon$ have uncovered an interacting…
We study the behavior of the antiferromagnetic RP$^2$ model in $d=3$. The vacuum structure is analyzed in the critical and low temperature regions, paying special attention to the spontaneous symmetry breaking pattern. Near the critical…
In this thesis, we explore the critical phenomena in the presence of extended objects, which we call defects, aiming for a better understanding of the properties of non-local objects ubiquitous in our world and a more practical and…
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 define in this paper a class of three indices tensor models, endowed with $O(N)^{\otimes 3}$ invariance ($N$ being the size of the tensor). This allows to generate, via the usual QFT perturbative expansion, a class of Feynman tensor…
We consider the $n$-component $|\varphi|^4$ lattice spin model ($n \ge 1$) and the weakly self-avoiding walk ($n=0$) on $\mathbb{Z}^d$, in dimensions $d=1,2,3$. We study long-range models based on the fractional Laplacian, with spin-spin…
