Quantum-field multiloop calculations in critical dynamics

Abstract

The quantum-field renormalization group method is one of the most efficient and powerful tools for studying critical and scaling phenomena in interacting many-particle systems. The multiloop Feynman diagrams underpin the specific implementation of the renormalization group program. In recent years, multiloop computation has had a significant breakthrough in both static and dynamic models of critical behavior. In the paper, we focus on the state-of-the-art computational techniques for critical dynamic diagrams and the results obtained with their help. The generic nature of the evaluated physical observables in a wide class of field models is manifested in the asymptotic character of perturbation expansions. Thus, the Borel resummation of series is required to process multiloop results. Such a procedure also enables one to take high-order contributions into consideration properly. The paper outlines the resummation framework in dynamic models and the circumstances in which it can be useful. An important resummation criterion is the properties of the higher-order asymptotics of the perturbation theory. In static theories, these properties are determined by the method of instanton analysis. A similar approach is applicable in critical dynamics models. We describe the calculation of these asymptotics in dynamical models and present the results of the corresponding resummation.
