Abstract

An exact renormalization equation is derived by making an infinitesimal change in the cutoff in momentum space. From this equation the expansion for critical exponents around dimensionality 4 and the limit $n=\ensuremath{\infty}$ of the $n$-vector model are calculated. We obtain agreement with the results of Wilson and Fisher, and with the spherical model.

About these checks

Registry, retraction, Cites and statistics results are computed, not judged, with one exception: a printed reference that no index lists is read once by a model before it counts as a citation error. Claims are extracted by a model and kept only when their quote appears verbatim in the text; each cited source is then checked, with a model’s help, for whether it says what the claim relies on. Those verdicts can be wrong — read the claim’s quote and the cited source before relying on one.

Statistics and arithmetic are recomputed, not judged.

Confidence bands are shown only for fields calibrated on our annotated test set. None is calibrated yet, so no band is shown.
