Studying the 2D XY -model, we link its validity to renormalization group properties. It would be valid if there were a single dimension 0 operator, but the actual existence of several such operators leads to T-dependent corrections. The PDF is the Fourier transform of the partition function Z(q) of an auxiliary theory which differs by a dimension 0 perturbation with a very small imaginary coefficient iq/N from a theory which is asymptotically free in the infrared. We compute the PDF from a systematic loop expansion of ln Z(q).", "revisions": [ { "version": "v1", "updated": "2005-06-28T16:40:20.000Z" } ], "analyses": { "keywords": [ "correlated systems", "universal fluctuations", "2d xy-model", "corrections", "small imaginary coefficient iq/n" ], "tags": [ "journal article" ], "publication": { "publisher": "APS", "journal": "Phys.
