The critical behaviour of the O(n)-symmetric model with two n-vector fields is studied within the field-theoretical renormalization group approach in a D=4-2 epsilon expansion. Depending on the coupling constants the beta-functions, fixed…
This article proposes a new way of deriving mean-field exponents for the weakly self-avoiding walk model in dimensions $d>4$. Among other results, we obtain up-to-constant estimates for the full-space and half-space two-point functions in…
Let $\mathcal{T}$ be a supercritical Galton-Watson tree with a bounded offspring distribution that has mean $\mu >1$, conditioned to survive. Let $\varphi_{\mathcal{T}}$ be a random embedding of $\mathcal{T}$ into $\mathbb{Z}^d$ according…
Recently, Takayasu and Tretyakov [Phys. Rev. Lett. {\bf 68}, 3060 (1992)], studied branching annihilating random walks (BAW) with $n=1$-5 offspring. These models exhibit a continuous phase transition to an absorbing state. For odd $n$ the…
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…
We study self-avoiding walk on graphs whose automorphism group has a transitive nonunimodular subgroup. We prove that self-avoiding walk is ballistic, that the bubble diagram converges at criticality, and that the critical two-point…
How long does a self-avoiding walk on a discrete $d$-dimensional torus have to be before it begins to behave differently from a self-avoiding walk on $\mathbb{Z}^d$? We consider a version of this question for weakly self-avoiding walk on a…
In this article, we construct and analyse a renormalisation group (RG) map for the weakly coupled $n$-component $|\varphi|^4$ model under periodic boundary conditions in dimension $d \ge 4$. Both short-range and long-range interactions with…
We review results concerning the critical behavior of spin systems at equilibrium. We consider the Ising and the general O($N$)-symmetric universality classes, including the $N\to 0$ limit that describes the critical behavior of…
We present simulation results for long ($N\leq 4000$) self-avoiding walks in four dimensions. We find definite indications of logarithmic corrections, but the data are poorly described by the asymptotically leading terms. Detailed…
We investigate some issues concerning the zero-momentum four-point renormalized coupling constant g in the symmetric phase of O(N) models, and the corresponding Callan-Symanzik beta-function. In the framework of the 1/N expansion we show…
We study self-avoiding walks on the four-dimensional hypercubic lattice via Monte Carlo simulations of walks with up to one billion steps. We study the expected logarithmic corrections to scaling, and find convincing evidence in support the…
This is the second of two papers on the end-to-end distance of a weakly self-repelling walk on a four dimensional hierarchical lattice. It completes the proof that the expected value grows as a constant times \sqrt{T} log^{1/8}T (1+O((log…
We revisit the approach to the lower critical dimension $d_{\rm lc}$ in the Ising-like $\varphi^4$ theory within the functional renormalization group by studying the lowest approximation levels in the derivative expansion of the effective…
We develop a renormalisation group approach to deriving the asymptotics of the spectral gap of the generator of Glauber type dynamics of spin systems with strong correlations (at and near a critical point). In our approach, we derive a…
We present a field-theoretical treatment of the critical behavior of three-dimensional weakly diluted quenched Ising model. To this end we analyse in a replica limit n=0 5-loop renormalization group functions of the $\phi^4$-theory with…
The renormalization group transformation for the hierarchical O(N) spin model in four dimensions is studied by means of characteristic functions of single-site measures, and convergence of the critical trajectory to the Gaussian fixed point…
In the neighbourhood of the critical point, the correlation length of the spin-spin correlation function of the two-dimensional Ising model diverges. The correlation function permits a scaling limit in which the separation $N$ between spins…
We consider self-avoiding walk and percolation in $\Zd$, oriented percolation in $\Zd\times\Zp$, and the contact process in $\Zd$, with $p D(\cdot)$ being the coupling function whose range is denoted by $L<\infty$. For percolation, for…
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…
