The critical properties of renormalizable O(N) field models are determined by means of the high order ($\geq 18$) behaviour of convergent linked cluster series on finite temperature lattices. It is shown that those models become weakly…

We show that a new expansion which sums seagull and bubble graphs to all orders, can be applied to the O(N) linear sigma model at finite temperature. We prove that this expansion can be renormalised with the usual counterterms in a mass…
We apply the exact renormalization group formalism to compute the effective action and potential of the four dimensional O$(N)$ linear sigma model in large $N$. With a finite momentum cutoff in place, the model is well defined. In the naive…

We consider the thermodynamic potential $\Omega$ of an N component Fermi gas with a short range interaction obeying SU(N) symmetry. We analyze especially the part of $\Omega$ that depends on the temperature T non-analytically for small T .…
