First, we focus on perturbation theory, which is more suitable than nonperturbative techniques due to the specific temporal non-locality of the model after disorder integration. We compute the one-loop $\\beta$-function and explore the structure of its fixed points. Next, we develop the nonperturbative renormalization group approach based on the standard Wetterich-Morris formalism, using two approximation schemes to address the model's non-locality. We investigate the vertex expansion in the symmetric phase and assess the reliability of the approximations for the fixed-point solutions. Finally, we extend our analysis beyond the symmetric phase by using an expansion around the vacuum of the local potential. Our numerical investigations particularly focus on the cases $p = 2$ and $p=3$.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2024-12-23T14:19:44.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "functional renormalization group", "spin renormalization group", "symmetric phase", "standard wetterich-morris formalism", "spin quantum models" ], "note": { "typesetting": "TeX", "pages": 74, "language": "en", "license": "arXiv", "status": "editable" } } }
