By using dimensional regularization and the minimal subtraction scheme, the perturbative expansions for RG functions are deduced and resummed by the Borel-Leroy transformation combined with a conformal mapping. Investigation of the global structure of RG flows for the physically significant cases N=2 and N=3 shows that the model has an anisotropic stable fixed point governing the continuous phase transitions with new critical exponents. This is supported by the estimate of the critical dimensionality $N_c=1.445(20)$ obtained from six loops via the exact relation $N_c={1/2} n_c$ established for the complex and real hypercubic models.", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2001-11-19T14:49:55.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "critical behavior", "expansion analysis", "complicated ordering", "n-component order parameter ginzburg-landau model", "complex n-component order parameter ginzburg-landau" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
