$O(N)$ invariant vector models have been shown to possess non-trivial scaling large $N$ limits, at least perturbatively within the loop expansion, a property they share with matrix models of 2D quantum gravity. In contrast with matrix…

The multicritical points of the $O(N)$ invariant $N$ vector model in the large $N$ limit are reexamined. Of particular interest are the subtleties involved in the stability of the phase structure at critical dimensions. In the limit $N \to…

The 1/N expansion for the O(N) vector model in four dimensions is reconsidered. It is emphasized that the effective potential for this model becomes everywhere complex just at the critical point, which signals an unstable vacuum. Thus a…

In this paper we consider matrix and vector models in the large N limit ($N \times N$ matrices and vectors with N^{2} components). For the case of zero-dimensional model (D=0) it is proved that in the strong coupling limit $g \to \infty$…

In the limit where $N\to\infty$ and the coupling constant $g \to g_{c}$ in a correlated manner, O(N) symmetric vector models represent filamentary surfaces. The purpose of these studies is to gain intuition for the long lasting search for a…

Using a simple identity between various partial derivatives of the energy of the vector model in 0+0 dimensions, we derive explicit results for the coefficients of the large N expansion of the model. These coefficients are functions in a…

In this paper, we study a double scaling limit of two multi-matrix models: the $U(N)^2 \times O(D)$-invariant model with all quartic interactions and the bipartite $U(N) \times O(D)$-invariant model with tetrahedral interaction ($D$ being…

We show how to obtain the O(N) non-linear sigma model in two dimensions as a strong coupling limit of the corresponding linear sigma model. In taking the strong coupling limit, the squared mass parameter must be given a specific coupling…

We show that $\N=1$ gauge theories with an adjoint chiral multiplet admit a wide class of large-N double-scaling limits where $N$ is taken to infinity in a way coordinated with a tuning of the bare superpotential. The tuning is such that…

We consider the scattering matrices of massive quantum field theories with no bound states and a global $O(N)$ symmetry in two spacetime dimensions. In particular we explore the space of two-to-two S-matrices of particles of mass $m$…

Logarithmic finite-size scaling of the O($n$) universality class at the upper critical dimensionality ($d_c=4$) has a fundamental role in statistical and condensed-matter physics and important applications in various experimental systems.…

We investigate $O(N)$-symmetric vector field theories in the double scaling limit. Our model describes branched polymeric systems in $D$ dimensions, whose multicritical series interpolates between the Cayley tree and the ordinary random…

O(N) vector sigma models possessing catastrophes in their action are studied. Coupling the limit N --> infinity with an appropriate scaling behaviour of the coupling constants, the partition function develops a singular factor. This is a…

In this paper, we extend the recent analysis of the new large $D$ limit of matrix models to the cases where the action contains arbitrary multi-trace interaction terms as well as to arbitrary correlation functions. We discuss both the cases…

We study the double scaling limit of the $O(N)^3$-invariant tensor model, initially introduced in Carrozza and Tanasa, Lett. Math. Phys. (2016). This model has an interacting part containing two types of quartic invariants, the tetrahedric…

We study the double- and triple-scaling limits of a complex multi-matrix model, with $\mathrm{U}(N)^2\times \mathrm{O}(D)$ symmetry. The double-scaling limit amounts to taking simultaneously the large-$N$ (matrix size) and large-$D$ (number…

Colored tensor models generalize matrix models in arbitrary dimensions yielding a statistical theory of random higher dimensional topological spaces. They admit a 1/N expansion dominated by graphs of spherical topology. The simplest tensor…

In this paper we study the double scaling limit of the multi-orientable tensor model. We prove that, contrary to the case of matrix models but similarly to the case of invariant tensor models, the double scaling series are convergent. We…

We study the two-dimensional Eguchi-Kawai model as a toy model of the IIB matrix model, which has been recently proposed as a nonperturbative definition of the type IIB superstring theory. While the planar limit of the model is known to…

This work studies the $O(N)$ Linear Sigma Model on $\mathbb{R}^{2}$ under a scaling dictated by the formal $1/N$ expansion. We show that in the large $N$ limit, correlations decay exponentially fast, where the acquired mass decays…
