We derive and solve flow equations for a general O(N)-symmetric effective potential including wavefunction renormalization corrections combined with a heat-kernel regularization. We investigate the model at finite temperature and study the…
We present models where $\gamma_+$ and $\gamma_-$, the exponents of the susceptibility in the high and low temperature phases, are generically different. In these models, continuous symmetries are explicitly broken down by discrete…
We consider the zero-temperature fixed points controlling the critical behavior of the $d$-dimensional random-field Ising, and more generally $O(N)$, models. We clarify the nature of these fixed points and their stability in the region of…
We define geometric critical exponents for systems that undergo continuous second order classical and quantum phase transitions. These relate scalar quantities on the information theoretic parameter manifolds of such systems, near…
Within the exact renormalisation group, the scaling solutions for O(N) symmetric scalar field theories are studied to leading order in the derivative expansion. The Gaussian fixed point is examined for d>2 dimensions and arbitrary infrared…
Renormalization group theory does not restrict the from of continuous variation of critical exponents which occurs in presence of a marginal operator. However, the continuous variation of critical exponents, observed in different contexts,…
We investigate a phase transition of the O(N) invariant scalar model using the auxiliary mass method. We determine the critical exponent $\beta$ by calculating an effective potential below the critical temperature. This work follows that of…
Two dimensional condensed matter is realised in increasingly diverse forms that are accessible to experiment and of potential technological value. The properties of these systems are influenced by many length scales and reflect both generic…
We show that the critical scaling behavior of random-field systems with short-range interactions and disorder correlations cannot be described in general by only two independent exponents, contrary to previous claims. This conclusion is…
The 1/N expansion of the two-particle irreducible (2PI) effective action is employed to compute universal properties at the second-order phase transition of an O(N)-symmetric N-vector model directly in three dimensions. At next-to-leading…
There have been some speculations about the existence of critical unitary O(N)-invariant scalar field theories in dimensions 4<d<6 and for large N. Using the functional renormalization group equation, we show that in the lowest order of the…
In extensive Monte Carlo simulations the phase transition of the random field Ising model in three dimensions is investigated. The values of the critical exponents are determined via finite size scaling. For a Gaussian distribution of the…
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…
Two different models exhibiting self-organized criticality are analyzed by means of the dynamic renormalization group. Although the two models differ by their behavior under a parity transformation of the order parameter, it is shown that…
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…
We investigate the critical dynamics of O(N)-symmetric scalar field theories to determine the critical exponents of transport coefficients as a second-order phase transition is approached from the symmetric phase. A set of stochastic…
Resummation methods using continued functions are implemented to converge divergent series appearing in perturbation problems related to continuous phase transitions in field theories. In some cases, better convergence properties are…
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 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…
A non-perturbative Renormalization Group approach is used to calculate scaling functions for an O(4) model in d=3 dimensions in the presence of an external symmetry-breaking field. These scaling functions are important for the analysis of…
